Kelley, when is your next appt? What are the DOCS doing for OHSS? I am getting worse. Hurts to breath now. Hurts to sit, stand, lay, anything! So I am actually heading to work to pick up some work so that I can work from bed tomorrow.

Lala, we can't wait for your details.

Sonu, feeling better? When does your sis start her cycle?

Carolyn, we put you to work today huh? LOL having to catch up on so many exciting posts! I wish that you and sonu were in our time zones!

Kelly, what is your due date? I think I asked before but can't remember your answer.

Ladies,

Carolyn - 12dp5dt means that you are 12 days past a 5 day transfer. I believe you can do an evil pee pee test now without the hcg shot interferring( if DH is reading this, I am NOT suggesting it :wink: :wink: ). Your manicure sounds like heaven!

Sonu and Carolyn can't wait to hear your news on that BFP X 2

As for me, tons of follies growing around 12 and 14 mm on both sides now!!!! We find out on Friday for sure when we trigger. Looking to have all of you guys left over sticky vibes and baby dust!

Kelly, almost forgot! I was able to take the meds on the plane instead of checking them in free of charge. I just carried them in a seperate bag. I did have to get a not from my doctor explaining why i needed the needles. I had no problems at all. Call your airline to make sure of their guidelines.

Have a lovely vacation.

WOW LADIES - What can I say?? I have never seen this on a board before EVER. Not this many BFPS!! Congratulatons to you all.

Of course I wouldn't leave without checking in to see how everyone was doing. I am OK and thanks for all your msgs of support. It's been hard loggin on but when you've been doing it every day for 2 and a half months, it's like a drug even though most times I am bawling!

The cloud has lifted a little for me and we are one step closer to accepting that this is a real possibility now that this may never work for us. I kind of always knew it really. 5 years TTC and 2 chemical pregnancies, "unexplained infertility" and all my doc could say was "you have really bad luck"!!! I asked if it was egg quality and he said he was not prepared to make that assumption as I had good amount of eggs and well developed embryos and that we should look ahead to a natural cycle FET. I know from experience that if my best blast didn't take then a frozen one aint gonna do much better and the success rate is just 19%, so we'll go thru the motions and put 2 (yes 2 he said!!) back before the years out and see how we go. In the meantime, I'm still having my moments of deep sadness and anger that we couldn't have just a bit of luck this time, as well as concerns that this is still all put down to "unexplained".

I have filled out the adoption applications and am about to post them off today. It's lengthy and incredibly expensive but I figure if it's meant to be, it will, and nothing we can do will change that.

Hopefully one day I'll be able to log on here and post that BFP but I tell ya, the worry will never end for me. My doc called on Tuesday and wanted me to stay on the progesterone until Friday and then go in for more bloods to check my levels. Apparently there was a case where a lady had a low beta of 9 and went full term! They just have to cover themselves in case. Anyway, I took myself off the progesterone and did another HPT the next day to check it was completely neg, which it was, so I'm not going in for bloods...why prolong the misery hey :-/

Well that's it for me lovely ladies. So proud of you all and look fwd to those last couple of BFPs..Good luck girls

OK, won't bring this exciting board down anymore! Bday cocktails for me tomorrow night and taing a trip to see my Mum for a week next Wednesday. Something to look fwd to :-)

Over & out,

Ladies...HELP!!!

I am having white sticky discharge...not continous but a little bit...I am worreid.
Carolyn are you also feeling crampish in your abdominal area with a slight pain.??

I am getting paranoid here.

My bedroom is on the first floor and on my 7dpt2t, I climbed down the stairs and then back twice today. I thought this much of activity will be fine as most of the buddies here are\already working. Last two times, I was completely resting for 2 weeks and used stairs on the test day when I had to visit my clinic....the result is evident. This time I wanted to be active ...Please advise!!

Hello ladies- I had a nice post all typed up and then I accidently shut my browser down so now I have to start all over :evil:

sonu911- I don't think you should be worried about the stairs. We live in a two story house and I used our stairs quite frequently during my 2 day bed rest. I think you'll be fine!! I had that same discharge too, I think it's a good sign.

Carolyn- Have a wonderful 4 days with your parents!!

Dexter- It's so good to hear from you!!! I know God has a plan for you and that you are meant to be a mother! Our good friends who live across the street from us have adopted two beautiful children who we LOVE to death. Please keep in touch!

Keisha- Thanks for the info on traveling. It's good to hear that you can take needles on board. Keep those follies growing!

Christin- My due date is May 25th, I'm 5 weeks today and still don't really feel pregnant!

I think we need to put together another list of where everyone is in their cycle. I guess I could take a stab at it. I'll do it in another post so this one isn't so long.

Hello :)

Christin, as far as the OHSS, I am only moderate, therefore their isn't uch that can be done. Now, my Dr told me NOT to drink water...other things like Ensure, Boost, Gatorade, 7Up any type of juice. Before it gets any better, it will probably get a little worse while your body makes more hormones, and tries to adjust to everything. He did say it could take a few days or a few weeks for the fluid to go away (therefore your stomach will go back to normal) but regardless, your ovaries will remain enlarged for the next 3 weeks or so.. So, the net is...give yourself about 4 more weeks, and you should start feel pretty good....well that is if you don't get morning sickness...... :oops:

Sonu - I did have a little discharge like you mentioned...I never got that before I got my period....I would not be too concerned..in fact, I think it might be a good sign. Of course, if it gets worse, or <foul> smelling..make the call..


My next appt isn't until Wed the 26th for bloodwork only..I thought they would be having me come in sooner, but maybe based on history, (natural preg to full term - no complications) and the current blood work which she said was excellent, they feel good.
