OK Beth ~ Funny girl.... making fun of the girl wanting details. Remember, I am the one who almost crapped during transfer... so I love details! I hope you shaved... or at least trimmed down there. Don't worry, every pregnancy is different and sometimes you get symptoms and sometimes you don't. I think I will obsessively look at the thread and see if I had any symptoms. I don't remember. Saturday won't get here quick enough. By the way, what's wrong with speading eagle and putting on a little show. We just need good music. Bow chicka bow wow.

Faith ~ I've heard of un-medicated FETs. I know my RE doesn't like to do them because he can't control the environment, but I read other people who have done them - successfully. So I think it depends on the clinic. You are such a strong person. We are all here for you! So pictures at crotch level huh? Don't you have a wonderful image during transfer. By the way, yes it sucks here - very HOT. I used to live in CA - central valley - Visalia and it gets hot there too, but not like here.

Laura ~ Barbarella - whats a going on ladies? Don't worry, when our thread goes by the wayside I read up on Laura and Beth on the other thread. Yeah... you know you ladies are cheating on us. :)

On another note... my belly is getting in the way and I can hardly see down under - so how am I supposed to groom? I should take a poll, continue to try and trim ever so nicely, shave completely or go bush lady. NO - I won't have it waxed - OUCH!

You are all so funny, imagine us all in a room together?? Talking about crapping and spreading eagle during lunch, now that would be fun. I would feel bad for the people around us! LOL

Donni as for the bush wacking because you can't see down there, why not have a "shower date" with your DH!! You can bust out the strawberries and whip cream, and shave cream (just don't mix them up), and he can go to town??! Otherwise by the time 9 months is up, you're going to look like women from the 1800's! :shock:

You all are killing me- I love it- I think you're right Faith, it would be tons of fun to all be together and talk about these wonderful topics!! And yes Donni, I have to say, Faith's idea about a shower date with dh sounds good...I sure don't remember what I did when I got big- maybe a mirror or something!!

Donni- Beth and I aren't cheating- we both always write on both threads- and I'll make sure I always write on this one first!!!! :) How are you feeling these days? Did you ever register? We're still waiting to see your recent ultrasound pics of Addison!

Beth- Are you surviving the wait- hope the time isn't dragging too much and you're keeping busy. How are you feeling? I loved your details too! That's probably good that you don't get obsessed with the ratings of the embies- besides if the RE said they are great blasts then that sounds good! There will be no pee sticks for me this time either!

Faith- So you decided to most likely get going on a FET soon? I do read of women on here doing the non-medicated FET, especially if you have no issues and are usually regular. Good luck with your decision and keep us posted.

Barbarella- How are you? Have you had your ER or ET yet? Let us know how you're doing.

I've been a little bit MIA- my dh sprained his ankle really bad so I have been dealing with taking care of both our ds and our 3 hunting dogs- otherwise known as our "girls." I'm tired as heck and I had a class for work and my ds got some heat rash so anyhow...in between all that I have been doing my meds and I have a lining check on Friday; then I'll start the PIO shots and million meds on Saturday...but July 3rd is coming right up so I'm excited!

Take care all, Laura

Hi girls - real quick check in before I leave for work.

Beth ~ How are you holding up in the wait? I hope you are doing well.

Barbarella ~ You had your transfer, right? How are you, check in when you can.

Faith ~ Did you guys make any decisions? I know you were still deciding.

Laura ~ How you doing? July 3rd is getting close. Good luck tomorrow with your lining check.

I know I still need to get the U/S pics up. We have to go put them on a disk so I can do it. I do have belly pics though. I will try and post something after work. I did register. My sister is going to have my shower on Aug 9th. I am really excited since I've never had one before.

Gotta run.

Donni

Hi everyone!

Just checking in on everybody.

That's great Barbarella that everything went well, and yay you test on the 4th of July!!! So far I haven't walked into my RE office and saw anyone I know, how funny!! But on the other hand it's like almost 2 hours from where I live so I doubt if I ever will! Thanks for the hugs, I definetely got it :D

Glad you registered Donni, I bet you were in there for awhile!!! I remember my friend being in the store for hours with her DS. Do you have a theme for the nursery??

How's your 2WW going Beth??? You go TOMORROW, right?? Wow that went by fast, I'm sure you will be BFP!!!

Laura good luck on your lining check today, you only have like 6 days to go!! How's DH ankle??

Well, I guess I sould call my RE for return visit. I haven't been in the mood :wink: but I will. I'm thinking of a natural FET, but I'm DEFINETELY not regular so I was thinking maybe I can take clomid? Then doing the FET. Not sure if they do that it was just my idea :D we'll see, ugh.

Happy Friday Y'all!

Hi again!

Again Beth, I'm so hoping for a bfp for you!

Barbarella- The 4th will be here soon! How are you feeling? That's funny because my first IVF, the embryologist walked in and she was a girl that lived on my floor my freshman year of college- small world! So later on, I thought, hey she might have "made" my baby- cool. Hope all is coming along with your house.

Faith- I've never heard of taking clomid and then a FET but who knows. I'm not sure what they do for natural FETs. Have you and dh decided to definitely do a FET soon?

Donni- We'd love to see belly pics too!! Did you have fun registering? Enjoy your shower!

My lining was 9 something so they said that I'm good to go...so tomorrow I will start 4 more meds! And Thursday is the day! Now that it's less than a week away, I can't believe it!

Take care all, Laura

Beth ~ My friend - I am so hoping and praying for your BFP! I am thinking of you!

Laura ~ Great lining!!! How exciting. You are almost there. Pretty sucky on additional meds- but if it works it is all worth it! As for registering - no, I hate shopping and shopping without leaving the store with stuff drove me crazy. But I got it done - so thats all that matters.

Faith ~ Hi there sunshine! Did you and DH decide what to do? Actually...did you call the RE for a return visit? I feel like I am pressuring you. Take your time, call when your in the mood. I've never heard of a clomid FET either, but that doesn't mean anything. I also am not regular, so they had to regulate things. The theme for my nursery is pink petals or something like that from JC Penney. I like the new polka dots - pink and chocolate brown - DH likes butterflies - so this has both and a great compromise. (I don't know how to spell it - ????)

Barbarella ~ I can only imagine you sitting surrounded by bricks and typing on your fertility board! LMAO! So where are you now? Where's home? Sounds like transfer went wonderful. 2 blasts sound great. July 4th - thats so far away. You all are killing me. I am so excited for all of you!

My name is Donnell and I am a POAS addict. This is a hard addiction to deal with since I can't make you'all pee! I've been part of another board for a long time now and me and some ladies have been through so much from the beginning. Anyway - I just found out today that the last one on our thread got her positive. So the entire thread is pregnant or has had their babies! It's going to happen ladies. It's going to happen for all of us!

I am a sap this morning - so forgive me. I love you guys!!!

(Going hormonally crazy) Donni

Jessica ~ Glad to hear from you. I've been looking for you but you haven't been posting much. How are you, how's the little one? Is there only one in there - are you going to find out if you are having a boy or a girl? I am so happy for you!

Hey !!!

I am doing good, still having awful morning sickness but thats ok! Just one in there this time! A gender specialist looked at my Ultrasound this week and said it looks like the genitals are growing up...so that means girl! He'll be able to tell better when I go back next week. I'll take either believe me but I have always wanted a little girl to dress up - LOL

How are you feeling? I look just like you in your 13 weeks pic, I was surprised to be this big this soon! But docs say that after you have had one pregnancy you pop out faster!
