Christy: oh I'm so sorry. Of course you are numb, this is awful for you. I dont understand why this is so difficult but I know this, you are a wonderful, courageous woman who inspires many women here so I can only imagine how you touch the lives of those you are close to. For right now I wish you some rest and I'm sending battallions of angels to be at your side for comfort and gentleness x

I will post personals later ladies I just wanted to check in on Christy

Christy: So sorry my dear. You are in my thoughts and prayers. There is no way to "understand" these BFN's. I will continue to be here and stalk you my friend. You will be a momma. And a great momma. So glad you got to spend some positive time with neighbor. She sounds like a sweet girl. Hang in there and hold onto that wonderful DH of yours as you plan next steps. ((HUGS))

I'm so mad because I had written all of these personals and when I went to add the photo, they all got deleted. Urrr.

AFM~ not much to report on the infertility issue so I decided I would post a wedding/honeymoon photo. We got married in Maui with just our close friends and family (37 total) and then went to Tahiti for our honeymoon. We are both scuba divers so we went to small islands for some of the most incredible diving. We saw tons of sharks, dolphins, turtles, rays... oh my. Truly amazing. The water behind us in this photo is one of the places where we went diving.

Sorry my personals got deleted. Note to self... save draft!

We~Thanks. I'm so mad my personals got deleted. I'm doing OK. Trying to figure out what I want to do next. Excited to meet with MD on Tuesday to discuss options.

Btw, Tahiti is great but so expensive. I don't think I would go there unless I was scuba diving. Otherwise, I think Hawaii is better for less money. I got annoyed that a bottle of beer was 20 bucks. Geez. However, the diving is probably some of the best in the world and I've been to quite a few places.

Sunshine~I need to say how sorry I am for you. I know what you mean about feeling numb. I have felt that way all week and I'm finding it hard to accomplish things. I'm thinking of you.

jayne- I grew up in Maui... Oh I love it there! Still thinking of you and I hope that you are doing well!

julia- We have the same beta test... I pray that you get a good numbers! I am the same way. I have wanted to go and clean and what not but DH has been really on me about not straining and over doing it. It drives me crazy. I see things and I am wanting to do it but I try to take it easy...

sunshine- I am so sorry that you got bad news. I really wanted to hear some good news! I am so sorry. I am thinking of you!

samantha- We have the same beta test date. I am glad that your RE said that they dont want you to poas. It has driven me crazy... I should have never done it but oh well too late... Praying you get a bfp!

ninde- yay for flu shots. Thanks for the kind words. I am sorry that you had that check up but I praying things work out for you next time. Thinking of you!

lyd- I am so glad that AF came and that I your RE could squeeze you in before the holidays. I had to laugh that you got your hpts already. I just run to the store every other day. hehe... shhh dont tell dh but each comes with a coupon does that count hehe

hopethisworks- yay for awsome beta numbers congrats!

kimish- praying your ET goes well and praying that you get your bfp! pulling for you!

neffi- love the picture that is awesome!

amanda- love your pictures! you both look so happy!

AFM- Just wanted to say sorry to anyone I forgot. Also thank you thank you all for such love during my moaning and groaning time. You all had such good things to say that really made me feel so much better. Of course to say the least- got my first positive on the hpt yesterday afternoon and again this morning. A little darker this morning but not much. I hope that it will continue to get darker and darker each day. It made me realize that I am not in control of anything and that I need to place it all into HIS hands and just know that I look forward to a little baby or babies one day soon! I hope that everyone is doing well and I look forward to seeing how all those who test on monday how it all goes. only a few more days! I am still cautious because I dont want to get hopes up. But thinking of you all!

Btw~I wish I could talk my husband into using donor eggs. I'm totally fine with a young tall blonde girls eggs and his sperm. He said he's 100% against the idea but I'm continuing to work on him. I used to be against it somehow I've found peace with not being genetically involved anymore whether that's through adoption or donor eggs. When I told my DH that our kids wouldn't have my horrible teeth... he laughed. He still said no though.

Blessed~big congrats!

Im starting to get worried. Im 11dp 5dt and ive started cramping in my back/hips and slightly in my lower stomach but its mostly just my back area that is bugging me. I seriously feel like im going to start AF any second! It feels JUST like period cramps like I usually get during AF! This is the day I should start AF too which makes this all worse! I have a 27 day cycle and started my last AF on Sept 20th then started BCP on Sept 23rd. I should have started on Oct 16th but with the stim shots it made me skip last months AF so 11/11 would be my next AF date...

I know alot of you ladies say that AF like cramps are normal and I even called my nurse and asked and she too said its all completely normal as well but I cant stop freaking out...I keep running to the bathroom to make sure...

Any thoughts?
Me 24- Polycystic Ovaries, but not PCOS. Ovulate normal, Normal AF every month.
DH 26- No Issues...well not fertility wise, but can be a nerd at times. ;)
#1 IVF-
ER- 10/26 11 eggs
