Hi gals,
I'm sorry I've been kind of a hermit lately. I haven't been wanting to talk much to anyone...do any of you feel like that? Now I'm getting nervous for my beta, which is this Monday August 4th and I need some support.

First of all I want to say that my heart goes out to you Venus. I'm thinking of you during this difficult time. I can't imagine how hard this is for you but please know that we're all here for you.

Second, congrats are in order Babyloves! Wow! Isn't that a high number for your first beta? Do you want twins?

To everyone else: Have a great weekend and think positive :D

tortillachip: i'll take however many i can get :D. I asked the RN about twins and she's like well, lets just assume one for know...

I know how you feel...it gets more nerve wracking the close you get...POAS was really good for me..i would have been thinking my cramps are from AF the whole time...but i actually got some sleep last night waiting for today. Will you POAS?
Thanks to all u wonderful ladies!

Babyloves: I'm sooo excited for you. You go embie(s)! Of course I had to POAS this morning and it was a BFN! Kind of bummed me out but am just thinking it may be too early to detect anyway.

Venus - I'm so sorry to hear your news. I know it has got to be hard but hang in there and stick around this board for support. We are all here for you.

Baby - That beta rocks!

Someone asked if anyone did a 5 day blast, I did a five day with two blasts.

Did someone say they transferred 5!!! Holy moly. I'll be praying for you!

tortilla - hang in there. I am having major mood swings. One minute I feel like wrestling my poor hubby to the floor and giving him a swift kick in the pants, the next minute I am lovey dovey but most of the time I feel like crying. They were talking about remembering the one year anniversary of the bridge collapse in MN today on the radio and I bust out into tears. It was a sad event but ummmm why am I crying my eyes out down the highway.

Venus
Im sorry to hear the news. I know how disappointing it is, we all have gone thru so much and the sacrifices. You can cry you heart out....after a good cry you will feel much better. Time will wash away your sorrow. It takes time and I know its not easy. Take a time break for yourself and spent time with your DH. Then you will pick up the pieces and be even stronger. You will get your BFP if you keep believing. Dun give up!!! We are supporting you here.

Babylove - Congratulation girl!! You made it!!! Your beta number is definitely sky rocket:D . Happy for you. Pls share your babydust to us all :D .

Marynaz - Can't believe you put 5 embies inside. The doc allowed that? Btw when is your beta test?

Kim14 - Im doing 2day transfer (4cell) that's my centre policy. Currently I have 1 embryo frozen and the rest 5 embies still wait and see whether can culture it to blast cell.

Girls, thank you for the encouragement words. Im feeling better now. My DH family problem has been solved and now left my family problem. Yesterday my good frens was praying for me and it really made me peaceful and lightened my burden. I believe GOD will take care my problems. Been reading the book SECRET to get more inspiration and positive thinking. It helps in someway to soothe away my negative feelings.

hommy,
glad to hear some of the problem are resovled. I think my RE really wants us to have kids! that is why transfered 5 embies hahaha anyway he said only one or two will make it which i am hoping too. my beta is 8/11. however i go for first on 8/8 but they are not gonna give me result before i get second beta. it seems each RE has his own way.

YEAH Babyloves!!!!! We were all rooting for you! Whatever you get-1,2,3 will be a blessing:) Enjoy these fantastic feelings and keep us updated. You are inspiring me...I think it will work for many of us :)

Hommy - so glad that your family problem is better. the stress from ivf is enough; you kinda hope everything in the rest of your life will just stand still. I've read the secret and call on some of that for strength from time to time.

Marynaz - I think I am just as shocked with the 5 embies...but hey, your odds are that much better....good luck

tortilla-its the final stretch...you can make it. I have also been VERY moody...moreso than usual :) will you take an HPT? I think I'm kinda leaning toward just holding out until 8/6, but since babyloves did, It's in the back of my mind

hope everyone else will enjoy the weekend. Is anyone else's DH REALLY optimistic? sometimes I want him to stop convincing me that my boobs are getting bigger (but other times it's nice :))
you guys would appreciate this emotional story...other night while watching my so you think you can dance results show...I spilled a little tea on me and started balling as if the end of the world came....emotional much?
