Well hello everyone! Wow so much going on :)

I do want to thank you guys for you kind words and support - really appreciate every bit of it. I was down and upset yesterday but I am not going to let that get to me.

I trust my RE's decision and have faith in almighty that everything will work out. So, I am gonna stay positive and be happy :) If it means going thru another fresh cycle i am okay with it. I will do anything to have my lil one :) :)

Amber~ I am sorry but don't be sad and lose hope you still have time to respond to the meds. Hopefully your RE won't cancel anything. Why don't you ask him/her why don't they keep you longer on meds, instead of canceling the cycle?? you are in my thoughts and don't lose hope.

Courtney~ I am very happy for you :)

Jennie~ Yay - can't wait to hear your results. We are both on 2ww wait

yellow~ see told you once you start stims, its like time flies like crazy.

Sd~ Thank you very much for your kind words.

DrJen~ How's everything going with you??

Everyone else take care and have a wonderful day.

Ok today is 7dp3dt, so far HPT is BFN. I am cramping and I am an emotional wreck. I feel like Aunt Flo is coming to town! I am bloated too!
Oh yea, and my boobs hurt from the progesterone and estrogen patches!!
I have all the PMS symptoms!
I really want this BFP! I think i deserve it. Is the 6th time a charm?

Soory, I just needed someone to listen to me.
Thank you,


Oh Jes Jes, congrats on the 18 eggs! Can't wait to hear the fert report.

YAY!! Finally got a schedule!! So I go in for baseline U/S April 23 and begin Lupron that day (which is the day before my birthday!!). Then if all goes well, ER will be May 15, and ET will be May 18!! Wow, I am getting so excted!! I should be getting all my meds on Saturday. Sounded like tons of it are on the way! I am so ready to get started!!

Doddo: Sorry to hear you are a wreck today!! Maybe all of those are actually pregnancy symptons instead of AF!! They are really similar. Keep your hopes up, and I will be praying for you. 6th time HAS to be some kind of charm!

Amber, I will keep you in my prayers as well.

Congrats to Jennie and Courtney!

Hope everyone is doing well and I will check in with you all later!

Amber, Sameera, everyone else, I'm saying a prayer for every one of you. God DOES listen! Just remember, things happen in His time, not our time. Hopefully, He decides it's time for all of us soon.

I started spotting today. Light pink. so I think its going to be Aunt Flo. I just have this feeling it didn't work. I guess I will find out for sure next week.
How is everyone else doing? You'all hanging in there?

Hi Everyone,
I went for my first U/S and B/W yesterday. Everything looks good and I get to start Follistim on Friday. YEAH!! :lol:

Donna - Don't give up hope yet, I have seen plenty of people POAS at the same time you did and have a BFN and then a few days later get a BFP with their Beta.

Amber - I am praying for you that your follies are just slow responders and that they decide that they want to grow, grow, grow.

Dri-Jim - how is your wife doing?

Sameera- You will get a BFP with the embies that they transferred. You don't need the extras. :-)

Jennie H - CONGRATS on the transfer of your frozen embie.

Courtney - Wishing you the best luck. Hopefully you will get your ER.

Good Luck to everyone else. There are so many people on here it is hard to keep track of everyone.

Hi everyone! Sorry to be MIA, but not much new here - still on bcp, and I swear it is making me moodier than being on stims. I think maybe something occurred in my ovarian drilling which triggered this reaction with bcp - or I am making all of this up and it's all in my head!!! I have been reading and keeping tabs on all of you.

Donna - I know it's hard but don't give up - you totally deserve this and I am sure it's your time!

Amber - try to stay positive, things can still start to grow. I totally understand, my last cycle was cancelled before ER and it is so frustrating, knowing you put your body through all that for nothing!

Sameera - I am sure the ones inside are all you need!

Courtney - so excited for you that your cycle is progressing!!

Much baby dust to everyone else!

Chris~ Thank you for your support. Good to know everything is going smoothly for you.

Dodo~ I would not give up so easily, you still have hope and you have been thru a lot but don't just give up yet. You just never know what your beta results maybe. I have my fingers crossed for you and you are in my thoughts ..Hope this is BFP for you :)

Amber~ I know this is very difficult time for you but don't give up hope, seriously they will grow just give them a chance :)

Dri-Jim~ you are right GOD does listen that's why I am not worried about things anymore. I will take it one day at a time :) Worrying is not going to do anything but make me more stress.

jharris ~ before you know it May 15th will be here :)

Courtney and Jeanie ~ congrats again :)

Take care

Got my fert report this morning..of the 18 eggs, 15 have fertilized. We are going to do a 5 day transfer on Monday as long as we still have lots come Saturday!

Amber ~ Ask them to up your meds to make them grow. Hang in there!

Sameera~ Have faith that the little peanuts inside you are growing like mad and they are all you need!

Donna~ Isn't it too early to test? The blood could be implantaion bleeding, I had that both times.

Everyone else, glad to see yall hanging in there. I'll update the list later!
