Any how that is if in fact they all stick :) so will see i rally need only one more twins would've be nice, but will see.

So my transfer still march 16 friday yupee!!! 2 wks vacation, oh!! i know that some of you got the progesterone shots well guess what? yes she said to give me a better chance due to this being a FET and last one on DEc didn't work she wants to give me a daily shot of progesterone oil to improve my chances ouch!!! she said the are instramuscular and they are long needles ouch! again!! well at least will be 4 days i get them tomorrow Monday ouch!!! i cannot stop thinking that they will HURT!!! oh this is the end of it so will pray for the best and for those 4 days to fly and no pain!!

Happy B-day Shantala!!

Love

Thanks BWHD I need all the jigging I can get so I can start BCP to.
Susette I also hate those shots and asked the Dr for EMLA cream and OH man the POI was a piece of cake I couldn't feel a thing. :)

Hope all is well with everyone.

XOXO

Janice.... so glad you are on your way! I'm so excited for you.

Susette...Progesterone shots aren't that bad, just remember why you're doing them and they are getting you one step closer to your BFP.

Shantala...How are those embies doing? How are you feeling?

My2...maybe BWHD can send AF your way now.

As for me... feeling good, still having trouble believing it all. However, although the scale doesn't say I've gained weight, all my clothes are snug in my waist. I'm guessing it's from the progesterone more so than from being pregnant. Not sure how long I'll be able to keep things a secret if my waistline keeps growing. It was so nice to be able to give in to me 3:00 exhaustion today. Can't do that at work, but had a wonderful nap at home.

Hope everyone else is doing well.

p.s. What's up with these google ads at the end of posts?????

hugs,
Ange

Hi Ange: I think that snugness is from 2 babies growing. :-) Keeping my fingers crossed!

Hi Shantala: Did you love my little baby on your myspace page? Wasn't it adorable? Gonna be yours soon!

Well girls, I'm feeling great. AF in full swing, started my pills today, and guess what.... woke up and got on the scale... and dropped 2 more lbs this week. I should have joined this online weight watchers thing months ago. UGH! I couldn't drop a darn lb before, and now took off 4 in two weeks. HOORAY! Feeling great today!

Hope everyone is doing well, more personals later. Have a wonderful day ladies!

Progesterone update-

Ange - i guess was not too bad.. thanks:) but my butt hurts after like it was brussed but not killing type so i will survive!! 3 more days and it will be over!!

Shantala - How are u feeling?? how are those babies behaving ?
Hope u are feeling good hun...

Fed- where are you how you feeling how are the twins, twins....:)

Aunty- Thanks for finding out what happen with these anoying ads ! :wink: , how is house hunting? any cylce soon hun if you mind me asking?

Bec- i hope u are doing Fantastic!!

Haylie- how are hanging hun??

Cinny- How is the preggie life?? :)

My- I think i will survive the shots for 3 more days

tc- how you doing?

As for me just received a call from my lovely Dr she had her meeting and they think that i should get only 2 embies instead of 3 everyone is very concern on risk of multiples- triplets and complications, she said that they implantation rate for a Blast is 60% so they suggested to put back only 2, but she said we we still can get the 3 if we want but need it to think on reduction if all 3 stick , this is a tough decision me and my dh has spoken about it and we both agree that if it's compromised the babies health or mine that will be the only way we will consider reduction. Well big dilema and not much time to think, i dont want to be greedy and then ended up letting go one of my beanies which i think if is health reason i will be fine with it but still a hurt decision , i know that one of the ladies in this threat went thru the same situation but i don't remember if it was for health reason or Dr's decision.... Any how just feel somewhat overwhalm with this info but happy that we can get a better chance this time :)) will see ...

FET- Mar 16 at 10:30am for prep and 11am transfer.

Good luck everyone!!!

Love

Hi girls

Susette - good luck for Friday not long now and your babies will be home.

Rach- I'm fine thanks still feeling really sick (but I'm not complaining). As for those insensitive people they just haven't got a clue, try and ignore them hun, I know it's easier said than done. Am so glad you phoned the clinic, when is the open evening? Will keep everything crossed for you that this works for you.

Shantala - how are you coping with the 2ww?

Ange - when is your scan, hope you are feeling well

Hi Lady's hope you are all well,

Susette i hate that decision youa re having to make, i know back in the day me and hubby thought long and hard about this i know there is no way we could have a reduction so transfering 4 and 3 embies at once we would have taken what we got...wish you loads of luck it's getting close now(((hugs)))
Aunty- any cylce soon hun if you mind me asking?
are you asking when i will be cycleing hun?? i thought you knew we wont be we cant afford it.

Rachel thats wonderful you may be one step closer to your blessing im so thrilled for you i will be keeping everything crossed , i wish we could do egg share like you say it makes it more affordable for you and your giving another couple a wonderful chance at haveing a family big hugs to you

loads of love to all....Aunty

Hello ladies!!

First Aunty- i apologized i was not aware for some reason that it was your last cycle :(, your are about 3 hrs from mass here IVF is covered i don't know what type of work you or your husband do but may be a possibility or moving to Mass area??? Just a suggestion or opinion hun... you know of course you need the health insurance and so on.. but just a thought! :)

Shantala & Lara- Yes a lot of decisions lately for me but you know is "sad" i had to go yesterday to see one of my friends child who is 1 month older thatn my son (2.50yrs) who got Scarlet Fever and got some bad germs and need to have surgery :( today... Last night seeing all those poor babies sick and a MOM that went by me on tears because of her ill child, make me realized that i don't want my beanies if all 3 were to stick to go thru all this because of prematuring birth etc. So it hit me hard on my heart.. and we made the decision on transferring only 2 and let the rest to God to decide on my beanies , we will keep one frozen for now, they just call me back they will thaw 2 only hopefully both make it.. and will be transferred on Friday at 11am, Last night it really touch me, besides iw ouldn't have a reduction which i expressed my self to them on that.

So we are having 2 God willing and blessing our little ones... :) to watch over them on both!!!!

Lara- I'm sorry about people being not consicious on how they speak and how they can hurt someone with their words.. Hopefully things work out..

Haylie- Is part of the road :)) For my son i was not sick at all just hungry every 4 hrs and sleepy :).. Good luck i'm sure everything wil work out for you and that Blessing that God gave you for a Reason ....... :) keep safe, and happy enjoy your Pregnancy...!!!!!

Charlie- Thanks!!

LAdies yiu ahve a wonderful day i am anxious this time to see if my beanies will make mommy , Mommy for a 2nd time !!!!!!! :)

Shantala- i'll meet u soon on those 2 ww vacation..:)

Love

Evening ladies!

Susette - I'm glad you have made the decision, it is very difficult to know what to do for the best, but I think we would have come to that decision if we were in your shoes - keeping everything crossed that your 2 blasts make the big thaw. Good luck for Friday!!!

Ems - can't wait to hear what your next scan reveals!

Shantala - not long now! Really praying for your BFP - it has been a long journey for you!

Haylie - hope you and baby are doing well! Did I read a while back that you live in Cwmbram or was that welshbugger? My DH's nan lives there!

Rachel - good luck at the egg share information evening - it sounds like a really good idea.

BWHD - congrats on the continued weight loss!

Steph - has that beatch turned up yet?

Aunty - thinking about you.

Well I went for my baseline scan and blood test on Monday, they were happy with my lining and my E2 levels and have said that I don't have to wait for AF before I start. I was a bit surprised really but they said it made no difference. I have now started estrodial and have my next scan on Friday 23rd March. All being well if I grow a nice comfy lining for my embies and they make the big defrost I should have FET either 26th or 27th. I'm finding it hard to get excited, but hey ho - who knows!

Sorry if I have missed anyone - thinking about you all!
