August 2012 Transfer Buddies

[kiwi11]

Hi Tawny - my RE is also for no sex, no exercise for the first 3 month - and he is very strict. the ovaries are still huge and need time get back to their regular size. don't really know why no sex but I read it on various other sides as well. I just think we spent all this money and a cycle is so so stressful that I wont cave in at the end so I can wait - even if that's not easy but what is with IFV?

Annette-congrats! Awesome beta!!!!

[BRMommy2B]

RE says I am "ripe for the pickin'" and ER confirmed for Saturday morning. Triggering tonight. Still no power, but I don't think it will be gone that much longer. Getting excited!

[Ninde]

Lyndsey: that's super

Patricia

BR- Go girl! Here is to retrieving those eggs and fertilization going well. Hope the power comes back on soon. Would not be fun to be hot with no power after retrieval.

Patricia- I admire you have the talent to sing. Always wanted to, but can't even read music.I feel sorry for whoever sits by us each Sunday in church and has to hear me. I hope to take piano in a few years with DS when he is old enough. If I am going to require him to play, I have to be able to do the same. Your group sounds interesting. What a joy it must be to truly help others. I believe in counseling. When I got divorced and the girl's dad left without a word, I made them go for a year. They hated it, but afterwards I always took them to dinner and they would talk and open up. Then the counselor would call me that night for an update. Despite how the girls felt about it, I thought it was very helpful.

AFM- I am still hanging in there. Here is the latest update.
9dpt-14
12dpt-37
14dpt-67
Go back Sunday at 11:30. Good thing I have afternoon church. Saw RE while getting blood work. Continued to tell me to be cautiously optimistic. Said she recently had a patient start at a 5 and carried to term a healthy baby and that some FETs just take a while to wake up. Here is praying this little one is alive and well. Will continue to be monitored unless things change. Please continue to keep us in your prayers. My DH has been a sweetheart through this. He has stayed home most of the week to keep me busy and laughing. When we got married he promised to keep me laughing forever. He does his job well. I am so blessed to have him.

Cristie: I really am remembering you in my prayers and your beta is rising x yes, I like to sing, I gigged with a band for a few years and loved it. Im really sorry to hear about your first husband, I cant imagine the shock of that. Your dh sounds amazing x

Lol dh came home from work this morning and quickly asked when my next doc apt is. I told him next Thurs is my next blood work. He starts saying he cant wait that long he was all figity and tells me to lee on a stick. I just went to the bathroom so that wont work. It was just so funny his reaction he didn't even say good morning it was straight into baby talk. It hasn't even been a week yet I thought it was ganna be hard for me aperently its worse for him I haven't even thought about testing Lol.

[sorcet]

Hi ladies thought I'd give u a quick update on me. Had my transfer this AM. One of my 6 cell embys didn't make the thaw so they thawed another 5 cell which survived. Both divided after thawing so we transferred a 6 cell and a 7 cell the embryologist said this was. Very good sign and I sure do hope it is. The transfer was a breeze this time nothing like the painful horrible experience I had last time beta is 9/13 thanks for your support ! I hope everyone is well and I'm cheering for all of you

[BRMommy2B]

Sorcet - Congrats on the transfer! I had a dream last night that the RE transferred a BUNCH of embies without asking what we wanted to do. Haha this is messing me up in the head! Hopefully I'm less than a week behind you! Good luck and rest up!

[Ninde]

Tonya: lol, so will you test?

Lyndsey: its amazing what our subconscious and unconscious do to us!

Sorcet: that's wonderful that 2 made it, im sorry about your other little one though. Now rest

Afm: im definately headachy this afternoon, hoping its either the progesterone or a good sign and not af

Patricia

[kiwi11]

sorcet - I believe the smaller ones are sometimes the best - so I will keep thinking about you and wish you all the best

tawny - did you decide to POAS?? it is so nerveracking same as waiting. For me I just couldnt have my blood drawn and wait for hours to be called back

Lindsey - good luck for tomorrow - I checked the news and the weather should be getting better - just what you need

[Tawny]

I don't know if I will poas maybe if DH insist but probably not until sun or mon give it a week. I'm not one to freak out about these 2 weeks. I'm so used to failed iui's and knowing they were pointless but have to do them for insurance to cover ivf that I'm mixed on feelings right now. I'm hoping so much that this will work especially since they were such great embies that I'm afraid of the dreaded bfn. I might test with dh before I go take the blood test its an acuward call at work trying not to give away the test results to coworkers before I get a chance to tell the hubby.

[Ninde]

Lyndsey: how did you get on?

Cristie: good luck tomorrow.

Tonya: because af came so early last time this 2ww has been more anxious for me. But when i can relax I find it a lovely time because there is the hope of life growing.

Afm: trying to visualise a lovely positive call on wed. This date last year I found out I was pregnant. Im remembering that lovely feeling and hoping to replicate that joy on wed.

[Tawny]

Brmommy- great news about the 9 eggs. Take it easy today and tomorrow hopefully you get a great call tomorrow about how well they are taking.
