Hi Michellexx, thanks for the thoughts. One more week to go for your 2WW, I wish you all the best and I hope you or Pummalaemma will start the ball rolling for all of us here!

Went for US today and lining is growing slowly, so I'm to up my oestrogen intake and go in for another US next monday. RE said if all goes well, ET should be end of next week, so still a long way to go.

Banana/Lots, all the best for the ET this week!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome all the newbies. we are all here to help each other. I have been mia because these meds are driving me crazy. I really don't feel myself and I don't like it. Lots of babywishes- what about you? Today I'm finally happy because tomorrow is the day but then i have the 2 ww. At least we will be doing it together. Might help us out a little bit. Michellexx- when is the 2ww over for you? How did the ET go? I'm a little nervous for tomorrow yet so excited. Ladies it really helps to be connected to people who understand.

hi everyone,
my weekend was not so good, it looked like i had a little bit of bleeding, hard to say because of the prometrium, which of course put my hopes for this to work out even further down. i am trying not to be too optimistic, since if it does not work out, i think, i'll be less depressed. not sure if this is a good way to think about it or not, but that helps me.
i had my blood test done today and got a value of 16 for my quantitave, they said that perhaps my emby did stick but did not implant or something like that. i'll have to go back on wednesday than they'll do another test and compare numbers. i am surprisingly calm considering this is a BFN, sort of, but i am thinking that for my next fresh cycle there may be hope at least someting positive happened. i have one cycle left on my warranty. any one of you have experience with a quantitative of 16, the nurse said it should be around 50 or 60. i had a day 6 blast implanted 9 day ago ... any thoughts. i feel sort of empty inside, not sure what to say, i think it will hit me later today, it is really weired.
lot's of baby dust to all of you.

Pummaelaemma,

Im sorry you had a lower number but dont give up. I have seem the beta increase and women go on to have a healthy baby!!

I too have had chemical pregnancies and you are right, you dont know how to feel :(

I will be starting again in a month and am pretty nervous about it.

Good luck to you and I pray that your numbers increase.

Hugs to you,
Jackie

Hiya to everyone before me. :) Hope you dont mind me just butting in here? :) Hope you are all doing great today. Good luck to all those who start cycles / test soon. Everything crossed. So sorry for those who didnt get the BFP. :(
Im on the horrendous 2WW too, its driving me mad.
I had FET last Wednesday so 6 days in and 8 days until i test. This is my 2nd attempt at ICSI, the 1st was a fresh cycle but miscarried early. :( They put 2 4 cell embies back in and said it was a text book transfer. Up to mother nature or the Gods now! Its soooooooo hard keeping your mind off it isnt? But ive discovered ebay which is keeping me out of trouble and occupied. Ssshhhhh, dont tell my DH im spending all his money!!!! :wink:
Just thought id join this thread to offer support and get some too!! It all helps. Thanks to everyone who writes, it really does help at this frustrating time. See you later, have a nice day. XXX

Thanx soooooo much michelle x x, its nice to feel you belong somewhere and that other people are in the same boat and actually understand what youre going through. DH is really good but just cannot understand fully!!! Its so supportive and it helps a lot, it can get quite lonely at times. Im gutted too about postal strike, i really want my purchases before i get fat! :wink: Havnt tried the bingo, might give that a go! :wink: Which hozy are you at for your treatment? Im at Hewitt Centre in Liverpool. Im due on A/F tomorrow so hopefully it wont come. Ive started getting period pains and back ache today so fingers crossed it stays away. Do you do a test yourself or will you have bt done? Is this your first FET from one cycle? X X X X :D

Hello to everyone--all the newbies!
Banana--I am so excited for you---today is the BIG day! Let me know how it goes! Lots of positive thinking and baby wishes.
Michellexx--Thanks so much for your advice, I will definitely drink some extra milk. How is the 2ww? Only 6 more days to go :D . Continue to be optimstic even if your symptoms may be related to the meds b/c there is always a chance those are pregn symptoms! Keep me updated!

We had a delay in the trasfer (sounds like what Baobao went thru)--My US on Friday showed my lining was only 5 and they wanted above 8. Increased my estrogen shots and started estrace (vaginal) and repeated on Monday. We are good to go and they are thawing the embryos today (tues)!!!!!!!!!!!! We will know Wed wether the transfer is Thurs or Sat. I am hoping they look good and grow to the blastocyte stage--but either way I am excited!
Hope all is well with everyon else!

Welcome JackieG/desparado, hope you find this thread as supportive as I do.

Pummalaemma, so sorry to hear abt your weekend, but keep the faith, there might still be hope!

Michellexx/desparado, just a few more days to go, hope you both get bfp!!

banana, hope everything went well for the ET..you are now officially in the 2WW, how exciting!!

Lots, glad to hear that your lining is ready for the ET, I hope come monday mine will also be ready. Good luck tomorrow and do let us know about your embies and ET date.

Hoping4baby, AF should be here by now??

Hope I didn't miss out anyone..Me I'm just bored with the wait, just doesn't seem to end!! First the lining, then the thawing, after that the ET, followed by the dreaded 2WW..how do we women survive all this?! LOL
