August 2012 Transfer Buddies

[godstime]

Hi all,wishing you all good luck!

[Ninde]

Wow what a lot of posts

Wonder: really good your beagle came back but wow woman you are having lots of stress. Take lots of deep breaths and im sending you calm vibes x

Suzy: I for one didnt find your post unsymathetic because my transfers have been two days due to quality I've always had to wait two full weeks for beta. Last time I started a period 7 days after so knew the outcome but i know they make us wait.

Tawny: im with the others.- complain. Like wonder said, there is a fine line between truth and blunt and she has crossed it. I know they deal with this every day but we dont and she is too base. Address it with her maybe -tell her she is being too blunt and you appreciate the truth but not bluntness. As for your follicles, I thought they sounded good? One sure way to get them to grow is to rest - lying down if you can.

TMiddle: oh I think those sticks are evil!!!! Did you poas today yet? Honestly im never sure they are reflective but I think that might be my suspicious nature!!

Kiwi: congrats on your 5 day

Afm: the clinic had me coast last night. So im just on the nasal spray to stop ovulation and i finish that at 6 tonight. I trigger tonigh, collection on Monday at 8.45am with only 4 I think by coasting me they are hoping the 17 and 15 grow a bit without my losing the other two 20s. I think had I had a few more to play with they may have triggered last night. Our last cycle saw a few more follicles but only 5 eggs. 4 fertilised with two making it to two day transfer so our quality isnt great. Im worried that with on,y 4 follicles are egg count will obviously be small but im really hoping if they get 4 the quality will be better with fewer nights of stimms and fertilisation will see all of them through. What do you think?

Wondercat glad your dog is back home safely and you can relax finally. You had quite enough going on besides the cycle. You can be proud that you managed all of it.

Ninde - what time are you triggering ? I am exited with you and wish you all the best for Monday.

Suzyq - didn't mind you post about ds walking - enjoyed it

Tawny. I also agree with the rest - I would request not to see this nurse again if you don't like her. This is a very personal thing and you need some one you can talk to and feel cared for.

Afm- strike bed rest and try to relax but it is soooo hot these day it is very unpleasant. However we had. Good transfer 2eggs perfect grade and tomorrow we know if we have some to freeze. They were not good for freezing today. Since all of you are poas- ing I don't know which side I will join:-) my test is 8/29

Have a wonderful weekend
Annette

[Tawny]

Thanks for the advice everyone. Tomorrows apt is with nurse that I love so I will talk to her about it.
Ninde- I'm glad you were able to trigger this weekend. Although it would have been kewl to do that with ya but ill just be a few days late. Good luck for tomorrow
Kiwi11- I hope the freezing looks good. We wont be freezing the insurance doesn't cover it and its too expencive. I wont be poas-ing it makes me to anxious for the real results.
Ultra sound and more blood work in the morn crossing my fingers and hoping thing have been growing.

[suzyq]

Wondercat-Glad to hear about puppy. Love those fury critters.

Tawny-I agree with everyone else about the nurse. She may not understand hot detrimental her bluntness is. Creating more stress really does not help in this process. Glad your seeing the nurse you like and hope all results come back favorable.

Tmiddle- Thanks for being so positive and reminding us what we are already blessed with. I know i am very blessed and so very thankful for it.

Kiwi- Congrats on transfer. Pray those little ones become Popsicle in waiting.

Ninde-You go girl. Retrieval will go just fine. I will be thinking of you tomorrow.

Godstime- Thanks for your well wishes for all here. We appreciate it.

AFM- Needed to take a break for a few days. Have been on that emotional roller coaster that seems hard to get off of. Worrying about if I have done too much or something wrong. Went for a boat ride Friday and it was a little bumpy and I worried all night. Have had a slight headache for two days from worrying. Through this process we have all become so in tune with our bodies, we worry about every twitch, pain, or gas bubble. Putting back on my game face and moving forward. My DH, Scott, said a beautiful prayer this morning for me. Really brought me some peace. (On a side note- I find his praying with me to be one of his sexiest qualities.)

I wish each of you a beautiful Sunday. Life really is good despite our trials. They make us stronger women and draw us together as friends.

[suzyq]

Sorcet- Did you transfer yet? I have been thinking of you and wondering how you are doing.

[Ninde]

Kiwii triggered on sat night at 9.15pm. That's wonderful you had such good embryos

Tawny: chances are our tests will be around the same time as I. Usually a two day transfer. Wishi g you good luck tomorrow and lots of growing vibes

Suzy: hey dont harbour ll those worries npby yourself - that's what we are here for. Its such an anxious time and as you say we are all so in tune with each little tweak. I hope you get some decent sleep later. Isnt it strange what we find sexy? Driving does it for me

Ninde

[suzyq]

Ninde- Thanks for the support. You are right. Sharing our worries and fears here releases them. Looking forward to hearing your excellent results tomorrow. Good luck!

[Ninde]

Hi ladies

just back from retrieval and my right side is really sore. Just got two little eggs. So please pray both fertilise because I think this will be the last try for us.

Hello ladies ...

Sorry I've been Mia been having a rough time . Thanks Suzyq for thinking of me !

My cycle was cancelled I got extremely sick on esterace high blood pressure migraines that incapacitated me edema in my feet in legs I gained 11 lbs in a week. I tried not to tell my clinic but the night before my u/s I couldn't even open my eyes with out throwing up and my DH made me call. At my u/s the next morning my lining was too thick @18 mm and my BP was 194/100 they were afraid of me stroking and so was I so they cancelled it. At first they said they wouldn't treat me again and I was devastated. I had this reaction to bcp as a late teen and just like that as soon as I stopped meds I lost the weight an my BP was normal again. After talking with my pcp and passing a stress test and some blood work they agreed to let me cycle again but only for 6 days on esterace at 1/2 the dose ( I was on it 15 days last time ) my pcp will follow me an I have BP meds on hand in case.

AF started yesterday so I'm looking at the last day of aug or sept 1 transfer if my lining is ok after 6 days

I have been reading and following u ladies and I'm praying for the best for all of you !

[kiwi11]

Sorcet- so sorry to hear about your cancellation. Is there another med you could take? You are so brave to not want to call even you are as sick as it could b. I would use freaked out throwing up, glad your DH made you call. Wish you all the best for the next transfer.

Ninde- one is all you need be positive. I am praying for your little ones

Twiddle- did you poas again? I haven't made up my mind if I will but strongly thinking about it


Have a wonderful day everyone

[Wondercat]

Ninde - I am praying for you as hard as I can. It does only take one. Transfer Wednesday?

sorcet - OMG, what a stressful situation! I am glad to hear they are letting you cycle again. Please keep us posted on how you do with the reduced dose.

AFM - Been very crampy and bitchy and just wanting this waiting part to be over.

[Tawny]

Ninde- I'm sorry about only 2 eggs but Wondercat is right it does only take one. I really hoping for the best.

Ninde and suzyq- Your both right I love the fact that we can talk about our worries and fears together it really does make this easier.

Sorcet- I'm really sorry you had to cancel that really sucks. Maybe the next one will be better if they tweek the meds a little.

AFM- I had my apointment this morning. I have no clue what the numbers are they were too busy that she didn't have them written down. She did say that they were very busy this weekend but they are not ready yet maybe retrieval on Thur or Fri now. Doc says I'm pretty Dang close though and want more monitoring so I have another ultra sound in the morning. Don't they know that it's a long 45 min drive and atleast $20 copay every day lol ? I should say don't my overies understand this is money and time?? My veins are about done my left doesn't like to co-operate and my right is just about done it took forever this morning. But my Progestrone level was a high 1332 (at least sounds high to me). My tummy feels huge I went home at lunch and changed to my fat pants today. She said I'm ganna feel super bloated pretty soon.

[suzyq]

Sorcet- Ouch! Sounds like you have been through the ringer. I hope they have found the right combo of meds for you this time and it goes well. I will be praying for you. Keep us posted.

Wondercat- My DH keeps asking me if I need a nap. It is his nice way of saying I am very crabby and they need a break from me......LOL.

Ninde- Two sweet little eggs. The ladies are right. One is all it takes. Lord knows you have had an ordeal to get here. Good luck on the transfer. I pray they fertilize and stick.

Kiwii-I agree with Ninde and think those sticks are evil... I feel like they mess with my mind too much.

Tmiddle- So you said it was ever so faint positive. Is that still the case?

ASM- Hanging tough not to POAS and way too busy. Beginning to wonder if my hopes are playing into false pregnancy symptoms or just the meds. You know how at this point you do not trust anything your body is telling you.

[Ninde]

Morning ladies

Sorcet: oh my goodness you have been through the mill. Will they keep a really good eye on you?

Kiwi: how are you?

Wondercat: im sorry you are feeling rough. Is it the whole stress of it all?

Tawny: what meds are you on? Maybe you might trigger tonight or tomorrow. How are you feeling?

Suzyq: I know its really hard to trust what's going on with all the hormones, etc. Do you have any meditation/relaxation cds?

TMiddle: did you poas again?

Afm: Afm: got a call. Apparently we had 3 eggs! 2 have fertilised normally over night and if they now start to divide then (completely inderstandably) we will do a two day transfer tomorrow. Last time we had 4 fertilised from 5 eggs, 3 made it to morning of 2 day transfer but by the time we went in at 1230 another had died. Please God we will have at least 1 to transfer and it would be wo derful if both make it. Ladies I know you have been wonderful with prayers but please could you keep them coming?
