Hi Ladies,

I feel really good and the transfer went smoothly. Now one to the dreaded 2ww. Thanks for all your well wishes and I will check in on you all later!

Rachel: ohhhh, a "deep eye infection"? That sounds painful. I hope you are able to get in to MD early tomorrow! Baseline scan tomorrow too, no? good luck!

Erin: SOOO happy for you! 2 good lookin' embryos is fantastic! Get some rest today

charlie: good luck on follie scan tomorrow. hoping for trigger go-ahead.

js: i am really hoping that you are able to find a RE that has experience with cases like yours and will make it all happen for you. sorry i have no info to help you, but please let us know what you find out. I am SO sorry this is happening for you. I am still hoping that the AI will work.

Becky: a step counter AND a treadmill. You are serious, aren't you? I, too love to walk on the treadmill when watching tv.. makes me feel more justified in my "guilty pleasure". good luck!

oooo, shantala: i am getting excited for you! Everything crossed that you get to start.

Jemma: glad to hear df is better... that must have been very scary!

SC: ooooo, so sorry about bladder infection. Glad to hear you are starting to feel better and that the cramping has lessened. how are you holding up? your horrid 2ww is winding down. Fingers crossed!

Aunty, dear, we can ALWAYS count on you to be protective of us ! Are you feeling any better, or pain still killin' ya? btw... my beta is Feb 4th (oooo, sounds so soon to me!)

Hoping you all had a good wkend!

happy sunday everyone! i can only do quick post. i burned my finger so i'm using one hand. crappy thing is i wrote one before this and lost it somehow.

erin, congrats! enjoy having your babies home.

racheal, ouch! it is hard enough going through the process without other body parts acting up. hope you get better soon.

sassy, how do you feel? did you notice our test day is 9dpt? w/my last 2 transfers, i tested 10dpt. i'm sure RE told me to stay on bedrest today... strange... had to get a bt today, 2dpt. last time first bt was 3dpt. was it a mistake?

Shantala, it is well worth the hour and a half! (I should be a sales person for it, lol) I have 2 pure bred Chihuahua doggies, one is smooth coat and the other is a blend of long haired and smooth coat, they are my babies!! And I love taking then places with me!

Thank you everyone else for the positive wishes! I really appreciate it!

Hi Aunty,

I think I started the question around bd'ing before transfer as it's on my calendar to do the night before the transfer. We did and I did get a BFP, so..... it doesn't hurt to give it a whirl. Apparently creates a more natural conception environment. And you know we have to abstain for some time after ET, so might as well get it done.

Rachel... owie on the eye infection, where did that come from? Feel better.

Silva... bladder infection... oh no, those are painful. Drink the cranberry juice, lots of it!

Mia... hope your babies are settling in for the next 9 months. Hope you finger feels better. What's going on ladies, everyone is getting owies!

Erin... great quality embies! rest up and I'm sure they are happy to be back home where they belong for the next 9 months.

Charlie.. any new developments for you. Those eggies growing?

Sassy... I knew you had a fighter there! I'm sure he/she is so happy to be back with you. Rest up and dh sounds like a sweetheart!

Welsh...thanks so much for watching over us.

Cook..I am so sorry to hear about your dog and although a tough decision, you made the right one. My furry children are my life and I can't even imagine when it's time to go to doggy heaven. HUGS

Sophie...Yep, ur DR. behaved like a cad, glad you got passed his comment and have happy thoughts again.

js... I pm'd you

Sorry for those I've missed, geez it is so hard to keep up with this thread. I do read all the posts and wish everyone all the best.

hugs,
Ange

mia: yeah, i noticed the same thing. My schedule said bw today, but when they called me yest w/bw results (bw was drawn late fri pm), they said to come in on Mon. But it also seemed to me that this time beta is one day sooner than last. oh well, no complaints!

[Ange]

OK, once again I screw up in the posts! ARRRGHHHH!

Cook..Shame shame shame on me! Sorry I thought it was your dog that went to doggy heaven.

Mom...I am so sorry to hear about your dog and although a tough decision, you made the right one. My furry children are my life and I can't even imagine when it's time to go to doggy heaven. HUGS

Ange, no worries! I knew what you meant.

[CINNY1]

ssalgado... Yeah it's in units. The first nite I had 300 units. This is my 1st IVF (U.S.). It's not supposed to be that high???

[CINNY1]

Fed7281 sending you lots of baby sticky dust (I think that's how u say it)

Lara312 LOL at raving lunatic.

Hey all: after assuming that we would just be starting our suppression phase etc in Jan., we learned that we were doing a "short protocol" with no suppression phase - just 10 days of stimming, then whammo! Here we are!!

Erin - looks like we are on the same timing here - we had our Xfr on Friday and xfr'd 1 8cell gr.2, a 7 cell gr.2 and a 4 cell gr. 3 and our beta is also 2/9 - sound familiar?

Saw some familiar names on the board from a prior cycle - this is #3 for us, so we're truly hoping three times is the charm.... Sounds like everyone is entering into or is well esconsed in the 2ww....

Wishing everyone lots of luck and good vibes on this cycle....

love Rachel x x

[Ems1971]

Well, its back to work for me today...I have to say I am glad as I was going out of my mind at home! I can't seem to stop crying and am going thru real positive times and real negative ones.

Aunty, in answer to your question on symptoms I have sore bbs, really bloated and visiting the loo every 5 mins, but I think that's down to all the water I'm drinking!!! I haven't POAS yet, its too early, but I really don't know if I will make it to "test day". I know I should, as I might get an inaccurate result if I do it before.

I am feeling ok when my mind's occupied but I find when I go to bed at night I lay thinking about it, and when I wake up its the same. Its stupid because I know there is absolutely NOTHING I can do but wait.

I have to say I am feeling pretty blue. I can't stop thinking about my "slow starters"...
