Congrats Mia....I'm so happy for you :)

And that Beta looks like it might be more than 1 ;)....when is your next one?

Thank you everyone for your kind words and prayers and for the anniversary wishes :) I signed back in to the tubal surgery group this morning and I just get almost sick when I read/post. Isn't that sad....I mean, this doctor has a HUGE success rate....but I don't want to go through that.....I feel led to IVF.

I emailed the research coordinator this morning for the IVF trial that I was going to do, I'm praying that she says we can still do the study even if we missed the Feb meeting.....and I'll continue to pray that my husband comes around to feeling positive about this. It's funny, but he actually said he'd feel better if I did the reversal....ugghhh. Why?

Mia ~ CONGRATS!!! YEA!

Indie ~ My continued prayers for you & your situation. I just know that you will come to the right conclusion. I hope you managed to have a good anniversary in spite of all this stress.

Well ladies, I think I need a little extra prayer power. I had a stim check yesterday and, while things seem to be happening I have one side that is "overachieving". I have a low count to begin with so the docs would really like it if things would happen evenly so that we can get as many follies and eggs as we can. My nurse freaked me out a bit with talk about cancelling, etc., but when the doc called after looking at b/w it sounded like we are still on track for ER next week. I have another appt tomorrow to see how things are progressing. I'm praying for improved numbers and size on the right side. I feel like we need all the help we can get at this point. Any prayers are greatly, greatly appreciated.

Staying hopeful and faithful!

chriss ~ prayers for you, hun.

Here's the short & sweet for me. They pushed me to stim day 8 (today) and the smaller follies have caught up and are mature! I'm triggering tonight for ER on Tuesday. We still don't have many to work with so we need all of them to produce!

Thanks for all of your prayers. More from me tomorrow!

Cathann: Yeah ER on Tuesday. I will pray they are all mature and plump eggies in each follie :)

Indie: How was your anniversary?? Did yall do anything special??

Chriss: I know it is never easy when AF shows up. I am praying for strength and comfort right now. YOu are starting right away with the next cycle right? I pray this is the time for you sweetie.

Nic: How you doing hun??

Kildean: Feeling any different?? I am soo tired - praising God I don't work full time right now!

Hope: You still been busy?? How are the stimms coming??? Oh wait you are still on bcp, right?

Sonu: Thanks for the congrats :) WHat is new with you?

apdean: Thanks! I don't know if I deserved it - but I will take it!

Well I forgot to post dh's reaction. He had a horrible day at work on vday so it took him a while to cool off before I gave him the present - then he thought it was a fake pee test!! He thought I bought it like that. He really was in shock the first evening not much reaction. But now he is just so happy - I know he is more happy for me than for himself right now. We told only one friend -we will wait a while longer to tell others. It was nice sharing the news with someone. :) I am still really in disbelief - Also a little sad that not all my buddies on this MB can experience it at the same tiime. But I believe in God's timing. I believe there is a reason he let me wait EIGHT years to experience this.

I am continuing to pray for each of you! Isn;t it amazing that we will all meet one day in heaven??!

Hi everyone :)

Chriss - I really appreciate your strength of getting up again for the next battle. I know how hard it is, we all have experienced it at some point or the other. Last BFN made me nervous wreck..i couldn't even talk with anyone. It took two months for me to get up from the shambles. I think three consecutive cycles took a great toll on me. Thats why I decided to take a break after September and here I am ready for another battle. I pray that Lord gives you enough strength.

Mia - Great to read about your Valentine's Day...you will hardly be able to forget 14/02/2008 ever. The year of Rat has indeed started on a good note for you and will end fantabously with a couple of kids in your arms.. :lol: GOD IS GREAT!!

Hope - Awaiting prayer list, dear. How are you? hope things are under control for you.

Nic - How is it going, dear?

Kildean - Praise Lord!! How r feeling, dear? any sickness for u?

Indie - Hope things are god at your end.

Cathann - Prayers for you, dear. Hope u are doing very well.

Prayers and wishes for all my other sisters.

As for me, I am meeting my doc tomorrow and will decide on the protocol. I am anticipating BCP with estrogen tablets. Lets see.
BTW I am also applying for a teacher's job here. Its a new place for me and things are different here in India as compared to Bahrain where I have spent last 9 years of my life. I went there after marriage and I am in teaching profession since 8 years now. Last year we decided to move back to our family in India for the treatment sake.
All this while I was in dilemma whether to join now or after the transfer. But then the last three tries were with no job, I was resting all the time and then it resulted in BFN. So I thought I will do it differently this time. Infact I am missing my work. DH had left the decision on me. Pl advise and pray for the right direction from the Lord.

Thats all from me now...will update shortly. :D

Hello All

I hope everyone one is well. Sorry I have't posted in a couple of days. I've been very tired.

Sonu911 and WaitingforMIA: The only symptoms I am feeling right now is very sore bbs and tired. I can't stay up past 8:30pm which is rare for me. My cramping has stopped. It is only here and there. I have become a POAS Queen. I've probably taken a test every other day just to make sure the line is getting darker and indeed it is. I don't know how much darker the line can get. I think I'm going to stop now.

i go in for my beta tomorrow, so can everyone say a prayer for me. I want high numbers because I really want twins like Mia (a boy and a girl). That is my prayer request and a healthy pregnancy with healthy babies!

Thanks so much for all of your support.

Cathann: I hope the retrieval goes well. Give us an update.

Chriss: I am definietly praying for your strength.
