Dexter My heart goes out to you and your DH. Man...it must be so hard for you right now. I wish I have something to say or do to make it all go away, but I don't. Sigh...Please stay strong. Take a good rest, do something fun and enjoyable, and come back. Whatever your decision is (try again or do something else), know that we will support you. Again, I am sorry for your loss...

Please make sure you take the time to heal.

Hey gals, I have to apologize for not checking in for the past two days. I actually purposely did that because I wanted to not think about the whole IVF thing during the weekend-it really stresses me out!!! I was also trying very hard to not do an HPT, because I want my BFP to come from the doctor this wednesday. Yes, two days from now! My appointment is 7:15a.m. and so I will be getting my results before noon I suppose.

Many of you asked if I am experiencing any cramps/weird sensations in my lower ab, and the answer is "hell yes!" There were moments when I was so convinced that AF is arriving. Last night especially, I woke up in the middle of the night with really bad cramps. I couldn't go back to sleep because the pain was pretty intense. So today I am pretty darn tired. But guess what? AF is late...for two days now...so it's a good sign, right? Also...here's an embarrasing questioin...anyone of you noticing the color of your nipples change? Mine turns darker...

Good luck to all of you who are awaiting results. The day is drawing near!!!

I think the nipple thing is a great sign. One of my friends that is currently pregnant said that is one of the first things she noticed. Are you BBs sore too? I haven't really noticed the different coloration, but I have noticed the sensitivity of my nipples, as well as....how do i say it.....the fact that they always seem to be "happy"

I am hoping that is a sign also, but not sure.

I have been having hot flashes, and have seemed to have a bit of nausea. I am more tired lately, but not sure if it is bc I am having terrible nights of sleep from the discomfort or bc it is a sympthom of pregnancy. In fact, I came home early from work today (got home at 4pm), ate a salad, took a shower and then took a 2 hour nap.

I have been noticing that the cramping is coming more often, and now it is starting to feel like AF cramps. What I do know though, is that i NEVER get AF cramps until after she arrives. So I am pretty confident (PMA PMA PMA) that these aren't from AF.

Oh, and (I am just rambeling now huh??) up until the ET, I have not really had a regular bowel movement. It seems like over the last 4 days, I have been going more often and it has been softer (TMI I am sorry). Just trying to explain all of the different things I am experiencing.

On a different note, where in our bodies are our embies? I need to reserach where they are exactly. I rub my tummy all the time to let them know that I love them, and would love to know that I was rubbing the right spot.

Hi Ladies,

Lala - I just wanted to say you are not alone on the nipple thing. My first IVF cycle, mine changed to a much darker color and was super sensitive. I just chalked it up to the PIO...did get a BFP later, but who knows? The symptoms of the PIO and pregnancy are so darn close. It's no wonder we analyze everything. So excited for you girl...can't wait for your BFP.

Kelly - Congratulations again on your BFP! That is an awesome beta number.

Christin - How are you feeling sweetie? I agree with the other ladies too...we know way too much about conceiving babies at this point. My cousin slipped down the first floor of her stairs (on her bottom) and ended up with a healthy baby girl. But she did follow up with her doc too for peace of mind. Oh yeah, I'm cheating with the little glitter congrats. I searched the web and found those out there. I really don't have a super creative bone in my body

Any of you ladies can log into my photobucket to snag some. Just go to www.photobucket.com and my username is angeleyes_jm and password maelee01...you all are welcome to any!

I finally did my first ultrasound after starting the meds....I have 15 follies on my right with 6 measuring at 12mm and I have 20 follies on the right with 5 measuring at 10! So happy that I responding on time this go around. All of you lovely ladies give me strength to keep going. If you guys don't mind, I'd like to stay on this thread although I'm behind everyone.

Much love to everyone and baby dust to all!

Christin I am experiencing exactly just that!!! Loose and frequent bowel movements (sorry too graphic here)!!! Your way of describing make me laugh so bad...yeah, I think my nipples are "happier" too!!! hahahahahahaha....(I am laughing out loud as I type and my DH looking at me like I am crazy

) I am also soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooootired all the time. It's like my muscle has given in or something. I feel bad for yawning so frequently at work. Good thing though my boss knows exactly what I am going through. She's been very supportive because she went through the same thing herself too!

hellokitty That's great news! When's your ER? I am so proud of you for being a fighter!

lala · Post by **lala** » Tue Sep 18, 2007 1:22 am

Oh and may I add that I also feel hungry all the time. One of the reasons that I don't sleep well now is because I wake up in the middle of the night either needing to pee or needing to eat...

Christin & Sonu -

Guess what..the ONLY symptom that I had with my natural pregnancy....the poops..all the time, after I ate ANYTHING!! This was before I took my pg test, but ended shortly thereafter....... That is actually the one thing that I have been waiting to see if I get (not y et though

Seriously ladies..I think this is a real good sign!

Morning all

Keisha - waht a fantastic follie count - any news on when ER will be ?

Chrsitin/lala/Kelley - my boobs are so sore too - and my nipples are constantly on attention (TMI i know) - but at least we are all sharing the same symptoms - these last few days they hurt too much to wear a bra

- good job I was not allowed out - LOL

Christin & Lala - i am so proud of you staying away from those eveil HPT - we popped to the shops yesterday and walked down the aisle with them in and DH litterally dragged me away - unless I sneakily buy one I don't think I will do it - PMA PMA PMA

Sonu - hope you are ok - thinking of you getting chance to spend time with DH

Dexter - in my thoughts and prayers - you know where we are if you need us XXXX ((()))

Kelly - bet it has still not sunk in - make sure DH treats you like a queen - what happens now - when do yoiu have scan ?

Still no work for me today - yipee - meeting a dear friend for lunch who recently lost her father to suicide (total out of blue shocker) am so glad that not had many of weepy emotions otherwise would be sttruggling tonight - it is nice to have something else to focus on and think that there are others in the world suffering appart from us - but obviously for different reasons

Good morning ladies!!

I am in such a good mood today bc I know that this is my last full day before I find out about our babies!!!! I am still feeling those stretching feelings and twinges in my lower abdomen, mainly at night. So that makes me happy. I have no real evidence that it is a good sign, but to me it only makes sense!

Carolyn
I am not sure exactly where you are in UK, but I looked up London, and London is 6 hours ahead of New Orleans. So right now it is 6:40am here and in London it is 12:40am. So I am eating breakfast, when you are eating lunch!!! (Lucky dog, b/c lunch is so much more yummy than breakfast...LOL)

Keisha
That is an EXCELLENT follie count. Girl, you have def stepped it up a few notches. I am so happy for you. Are you started to feel bloated? My clothes still fit me so weird right now. I have a little baby bump. Hopefully now I have a baby in there so the bump is legitimate

Kelly
How often do you go back to the clinic now? Is it frequent? Does he release you right away to the OBGYN, or not. I think myRE doesn't release us for several weeks. But that is only what i have heard, but not directly from them. Do you know your due date? If I am preggers, my due date is May 30th (if it is one baby), and something probably about 2 weeks sooner if it is twins!

Lala
I am so excited we are sharing the same sympthoms!!! I think it is a really good sign. I am taking off of work tomorrow to spend the day with DH, so I may not be able to get access to my computer to post my results until later tomorrow. I will bring my computer with me and see if DH will let me stop off at Starbucks or something to log in an share our BFP!!! I couldn't let yall sit around on pens and needles. So lala..promise the same!!! LOL.

Okay, off to get ready for work. Talk to you all very soon!!!!

Christin
