Hey Stephjim - hope your follies are nice and mature tomorrow. Best of luck and let us know how it goes.

Where is everyone today? Why does no one play when I'm around?

This is how I feel:

Got it???) oh and can I just say that I am SO wishing that we did things similar to you guys across the pond at this moment…..where ya get your BFP and just keep moving along!! No bloods every other day to keep you WORRIED!!!!

Su ---- so very excited for your Wednesday scan!!!! We have SO much stuff going on here this week!!! Have you tried looking/comparing online for your prams??? I would think online would be a good resource for comparing stuff like that…..

Steph -------- you SO need a litter!!! And besides, the way you “self medicate” w/ your clomid (starting earlier than you’re supposed to) ---- what the hell do you expect girl??? AND – the way I see it, if YOU have a litter, maybe I could just get one from you!!! Ha, ha, ha,ha!! Also, and I know I already told you this, but OMG – I would rather poke my eyes out than pay $630 for bed linen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But whatever floats yer boat – ya know??? OH and you were watching john & kate??????? Yeah!!! I got another follower!!! Yeah, my biggest thing w/ kate (aside from her lack of skills in putting on blush) is how big of ***** she is to john…..i think she’s a LOVELY mother – but is like she tries to be a mum to john as well --- he puts up w/ WAY more than I would!! I’d be all “go f*&# yourself kate!!!”

Chriss ---- WOW, we got ANOTHER one jumping into stimms right away???? Geesh, I’m not gonna be able to keep up w/ ya’ll!! Didn’t realize that you were starting right away w/ AF’s arrival – WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MORNING LADIES!!!!! Ok I have to look occupied when the bugman (well really lady) gets here...she's a friggen talker and takes for ever! Here is me pokin you guys in the eye again...

Yup Angie you TOTALLY missed the chat of the century...alll cuz you wanted to go to bed early!!!! Well tonite I get to be in hell til 10 so I won't get to join in unless everyone is still here once I get settled near 11pm. I'm gonna be good with my meds next time I promise! That is of course if AF would show the F up! OOOOO yeh that totally bugs me about Kate too!!! He is such a whimp!!! Obviously she wears the pants in the family! I'm sure he was able to get a new job now that they have all these sponsors and he doesn't have to worry about feeding so many mouths and being the only bread winner! Maybe he will buy her some makeup lessons! (This coming from the girl who doesn't wear makeup but only cuz I don't wanna look like her!) Oh and shhh it is secret that Hope is CIA.. we don't want the KGB to resurface on our boards!

Beck- how did the apt go??? what did they do?

Nims- your scan is today? I'm so lost between you and Su!

Mia- 42 follies??? How was your scan?

Steph- and your scan tomorrow! Do you want me to wish for 39872 follies

Angel- I'm here, just running round this morning so I could come back and wait for bug man...she's here now and the dogs won't shut up...grrrr bad dog!

Nope no knitting socks for me...I'll just save my $600 on sheets and buy a few pairs of socks instead

As for me, I broke down and poas AGAIN (I know Mia I didn't listen to the teacher!) but like I knew it would be it was negative. So now I am definitely done, this is day 15 past the 2nd Oing surge and twinges, so I KNOW I'm out...why doesn't AF know this!

GOD I wish she's (the bug lady) hurry the F-up cuz then the dogs would stop barking and driving me battier than I am!!! I mean I love having no bugs and all but I just hate how friggen slow she can be!!!!!

Hey ICSI, how is you and the little beanie (s)

And when is your next blood work?

Are you wondering the same thing as I am - Where the heck is everyone??? This was a super duper active thread just a few days back. And now suddenly

[/url]

I'm ok apart from work - annoying me so much. Trying not to let it get to me though as I need to be all well and relaxed for my next round in a few days. Silly person can't make decisions and we end up having to go over things. My answer message says:

ICSI GIRL · Post by **ICSI GIRL** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 4:11 pm

gee and i thought NOBODY was going to be around to play today!!!

steph ---- can i just say it is about damn time AF show her ugly head already???? you've had AMPLE amounts of "bring on the *****" dances --- now lets go already would ya??????

(trying a different tecnique......we'll see if it works!!!

) so didn't see anywhere you talking about movie you went to see yesterday....or did you end up not going to see it once you fell in love w/ your new multi-million dollar bed sheets???

yeah, john can finally get this new job on account of all the $$$$$$$$$$$$$ they are probably raking in!!!!! i dont' know how any of that works ??? like how much they get paid from the tv people?? and i don't think they pay for much to be honest with you --- like, they went on disney vaca this past summer --- now TELL ME they paid for that?????? come on, disney getting FREE EXPOSURE (translate - advertising) w/ sextuplets & twins coming???????? anyway....... i would LOVE to be her right about now......am really not getting much of a warm/fuzzy feelin about my bfp at the moment

my damn numbers just aren't doing what they're supposed to damn it! and then lets not forget me torturing myself by going out and reading different message boards where they have "beta posting boards" --- only to find mostly ending in bfN......ugh --- this is madness i tell ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey angel.......next bloodwork is on thursday......but as i said to steph -- am just not feeling like this is going to be "my time"

i'm mostly an optimistic person -- but.........i don't know, maybe is just my day to be "moapy" (aka-sad).......so when do you start?????

now damn it Angie! your numbers are going up, they doubled within 72 hrs you are doing fine!!!

I'm gonna pm ya ok!

Angie - Don't give up. Your numbers ARE rising right! not falling! not static! just rising a little slower than normal and hey whose 'normal' in all of this?

Steph - I always got AF 16-17 days after iui when on meds so if you didn't ovulate til the 2nd time you thought then you're still on track. Having said that I do think she needs a good talking to so - LISTEN HERE AF, JUST GET ON YOUR BROOMSTICK AND GO VISIT STEPH OK, WE'RE ALL WAITING!

Angel505 · Post by **Angel505** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 4:39 pm

Angie, you get up that PMA right this instant!!!! Otherwise I'm gonna get maaad at you.

And for god's sake, stop reading the boards. You don't know what your body is going to do, and if you want to give the very best chance, you have to believe that the little one is going to be fine and stay with you. Like I said I came across a thread specifically about beta numbers and two women told others that they had very low numbers and went on to have successful pregnancies. I know you're a financial analyst and can't stop counting, but you have got to stop.

Steph, I do hope that AF would hurry. Maybe she is just delaying the start by a few days to give your body some rest. Just take it easy. AF is a witch and doesn't like sparing any of us women so why should you not receive a visit from her??????

ICSI GIRL · Post by **ICSI GIRL** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:02 pm

nims......COME ON ALREADY!!!! it's gotta be like 5'ish your time and i don't know about over there, but doc's offices are CLOSED by then over here!!!!!

you too beck..............................

mia -- you're stateside (and i think EST) -- so wouldn't have expected to hear from you just yet.....

stephjim -- ditto on what i said to mia!!!!

now chop-chop ladies!!! don't you all know that i NEED something to keep my mind off my own madness???!!!!

yeh people!!! UPDATES DAMN IT!!!!!

chriss · Post by **chriss** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:15 pm

Hi girls,
How are you all today? Angie, try to stay calm, easier said than done. I try to tell myself that freaking out or worrying will not change it and that helps me to relax a little. Focus on the fact that the numbers are rising! I remember reading a post where one person's numbers were not rising the predicted way and it turns out that originally there were two embies and one of them didn't make it. That is why the numbers did not actually double. Could be something like that or something we didn't think of. Thursday will be here soon. IVF is a tough game where we have to learn how to wait!!! It makes me crazy. I am a professional waiter, we all are.

Here's my latest question... You all know that I just got AF. BLAH! But it is so strange this time. Very light and minimal cramping. And very dark. It kinda started Sat. night 6 pm-ish. But I guess it was more like spotting. I only saw a little blood 2x when I peed, none on the pad. Then it came on Sunday morning a little heavier. (But not really heavy like one would expect.) Then today it's almost gone completely. I made my 3day bloodwork appointment for Wednesday (tomorrow) to start stimms etc. But do you think that I should have counted Sat. night as day one becasue my whole period is so light???? How will this effect my reaction with stimms. So is today really day 3??? Am I starting them on day 4 now? What happens when you start them later???? I know it may not make a difference at all, but of course if I am able to find a reason to fret, I will find one.

ANY THOUGHTS???????
thanks, -chriss

pequele · Post by **pequele** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:27 pm

Su- forgot to say thanks for the thoughts on clomid with AF timing...that is what I am hoping so at worse she should be here tomorrow or on my interview day Thursday based on the 2nd O date I have....go figure!

Chriss- I always count day 1 as the 1st sign of (sorry tmi) blood....even spotting. It is the start right. Who knows, maybe you should call em and ask what they think.

I'd like to call my office and ask em if they have heard from AF lately and her schedule for me...but then the nurse will just say something like well maybe it is too early to test...BAH!

Steph

squeezan · Post by **squeezan** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:33 pm

Chris - the exact same thing happened to me on my last cycle. AF was really light and short. I started my stimms on day 3 instead of 2 'cos it was the weekend and look at me now! Of course that was iui not ivf but I doubt if a few hours would make any difference.
I have heard people say if AF starts after about 5pm you should count the next day as day 1 anyway so you should be fine.
Su

ICSI GIRL · Post by **ICSI GIRL** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:47 pm

chriss -- thanks for your words of encouragement hun, i know you guys are right in telling me to calm the f*&# down......BUT, as you said - easier said than done!!! (AND - we'll see how well YOU are at this whole "game" here in the next few weeks!!!

) far as what day is what..... first of all, i don't think it matters if you start stims on day 2 or 3.....more importantly i think are your baseline numbers --- and long as they're where they should be -- no worries!!! and secondly --- i've always been told "first full day of flow where you must use tampon/pad is day #1".... but who knows??!!!!!

steph --- you have one of your interview's on THIS THURSDAY??????? who is this one with??? VA hospital, Navy????? have fun in hell today... sorry you can't stay and play......

su --- are ya getting excited for tomorrow's scan????????????????????

pequele · Post by **pequele** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 5:56 pm

Angie- tomorrow is the VA....I haven't heard anything else back from the Navy...probably the spies on here told them I'm a hormonal biiioootch

Su- are you gona be finding out the sex tomorrow???? I had a dream you had a boy and Nims had a girl. no idea WHY I'm dreamin bout you...trust me I'm not one of those stalker psychos

I REALLY don't wanna go to hell!
Where IS NIMS and her report!!! AND BECKY!!!! LADIES!!!!!
