Hey everyone,

I’ve been away from the boards as I feel soooo depressed today. Test date is Thursday but spotting started yesterday. And I can feel the start of full flow AF. Damn…..gets me so annoyed that I can’t even last till test day. I was on the verge of stopping the meds and didn’t want to bother going tomorrow. But DH is insistent. In fact he is going to take me to the clinic tomorrow. 

Talking about the rest of your DH, mine is no different. We have given up hope for this cycle and he wants me to think about other things and he wants us to go out and do things like we used to. He keeps on saying that we can’t let our lives revolve around the tmt. We need to be strong and carry on with life. I just don’t get it. So I feel a little bit better knowing that he’s just an average guy – able to carry on while I feel like life has come to a halt.

Steph – let us know how the scan goes. You had strong beta numbers so I’m sure you will see your baby (ies). Don’t get too stressed otherwise the baby will be sad and won’t wave at mommy.

Chriss – hope all goes well with ER today. 5 follies sounds good. Have everything crossed for you that you have at least 4 lovely embies to transfer.

Hope – sounds like stimming is going well. You have a good crop there. ;) Not too sure about E levels. When is ER scheduled?

Stephjim – sorry that work is dragging. But you’ll soon have your embies on board and rest at home for 2 weeks.

Hope the rest of you are all well. Sorry can’t do personals as really feeling down today.

Sorry Angel, keep us up to date, if you can with the progress. It could still be good news. Don't totally thrown this cycle out the window yet. You are in my prayers.

GOOD LUCK STEPH!!!!!

Hellooooo to all my friends.... :D

Rachel- SO happy your little princess has started kicking the crap out of you again!! LOL She will be here so soon. I am sure you are EXCITED!
When do you go to the Drs again?

Mia- That is nice that DH will be going to U/S with you. Is he excited?

Becky- Congratulations on AF! You will be starting your treatment in no time now. Good luck on your surgery.

Stephjim-I see you are a sneaky pete!!! Your at work signing on aren't you??Image

Peq-Where the heck were last night? I was so freaking bored. No one was around. :( GOOD LUCK TODAY!! (i know you wont need it) Tell the trips we all send our love!!! Image

My dear Chriss- GOOD LUCK BABE!!!!! THINKING OF YOU!!!! Let us know the news when you can!!!Image

Angel- sweety pie, honey buches of oats!!! I am so very sorry. I hate when I feel like that. (and I am not even going through tmt yet!!)
SDH can be so insensitive. I think pretty much all DH are like that. It is like they do not get it, they do not feel the pain like we do. I get so frustrated with my DH sometimes. I know they hurt in their own way, but damn it, they need to hurt like us...LOL Take some time and take care of yourself. YOU are the only one who knows what you are feeling and what you need. IF is such a heartbreaking path. I wish I could take some of your pain for you...let me/us know if you need anything. Remember we are here day or night for you...

I'm sorry ladies, I haven't been up to catching up, too much running around and fighting off headaches... :( I promise I will this weekend when I have a minute to breathe.

Angel, sweetie. Thinking of you... I wish there was something we could do to take away the pain. :( prayers and hugs to you, dear. Image

Chriss- Good luck today! Thinking of you!!! Praying for excellent fertilization for you, hon!! Image

JenBabes - Praying all went fabulously for the FET!!! Image

Steph - Lots o prayers & luck today at the U/S!!! I know everything is going to go great!!! You should be in there with feet up in stirrups right now!!! Can't wait to hear the excellent results!! Image (figured turtles were better luck for you than shamrocks!!) ;)

I promise I'll catch up on everyone else's news this wknd!!!! Thinking of you all and praying all is going well for you.

As for me, as Steph mentioned, I had my 3rd US/BW yesterday. Follies are still growing, but not as fast as RE would like. BW showed my E2 level at 90.8 (in my last two cycles at this point it was between 300-500). So they are boosting my meds AGAIN. Gonal-F and Menopur both up 75 more units (300 & 150 respectively). I just took my first dose of those and will take them again tomorrow before I go in for another US/BW. Hopefully it will give 'em the boost they need. I just can't help but think it's because I turned 35!! I know it's not, but that's the age when you're officially AMA and well, who knows. I just feel rotten since I have responded so well in the past. :( I'm also going to acupuncture tomorrow, which I hope will help - and then again on Friday. I was thinking the ER would probably be on Sunday, but maybe not til Monday or even Tuesday- it's a wait & see game at this point.

I'm BAAAACCKKK!!!!

1st is 1st. They go by my LMP and they say I'm 5w3d. Check another site that goes by date of O (since I trigger and did IUI) and I'm 5w4d, then yet another says I'm 5w5d. So whatever, I'm so damn confused. But I'm right on track, just a yolk sac no HB yet! But that is further along than last time so I am GOOD with that. I go back in 10 days (March 14) when according to them I will be 6w6d (so between then and 7w1d) and we should be seeing a HB then. Of course I'm scared still...and more friggen hurry up and wait crap! AARGH.

Oh yeh and it is only 1 little beaner. Of course she didn't really look around, I said is it only one, she said yup only 1 yolk sac in there, I was like no any other gestational sacs? She was like nope. Wutcha talkin bout considering you went in and right to it! It is ok though, but I felt like it was cuz she saw the one didn't have to look further...1 healthy beaner is all I ask for!

Image

So I got my pic...of course I don't think it was the best one but again, whatever, it is a pic. I didn't go scan it cuz I figured it was pretty boring haha. I'm not gonna update my ticker til I get a better answer and measurements. Man I want an October baby....November's birthstone is FUGLY hahaha. UGH 10 more days!

Steph

Angel: SOrry hun. I know there is nothing we can say. it SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS! About dhs I am so glad my dh is an avg dh - I mean I cant imagine what it would be like to have two depressed whiny ppl in a marriage. I really think of his insensitivity as a blessing! I am thinking of you sweetie.

Peqe: One bambino?? Did the baby stick out its head or was it hiding in its shell?? lol. So happy you got to see it!! I will be 7 weeks and 3days for my 2nd u/s I hope I can see a hb! I know it is always hurry up and wait! But that is what the next 8 mos will be like - so get used to it!!
I was hoping mine will be late and in Nov so it can have a bday month of it own (mine is Oct). I didnt think about the birthstone - you are so full of wisdom turtle queen!

Hope: Happy Belated Bday!! I am hoping your E2 get right to where they need to be and your follies pop (not literally) to the right size!!! grow follies!!

I have to cut this short - I need to go pick up dh for lunch! (Though I ant imagine eating a thing, ugh...)
