Laura, Gi, Jandc33: Thank you ladies soo much. It truly means alot to me. This has been a long road and I hope its nothing but positive from here.

Jandc33: Im still cramping off and on, they said thats normal but Im not spotting I pray it doesnt come back. :twisted: I transferred 2 embryos in so I hope they both are snuggled in. I pray you get a BFP. The progesterone is the worst, I think the suppositories are making me cramp more b/c when I was on the shot I barely cramped but the shots and I aren't friends so I switched. I know this is our time. Just keep your PMA :wink:

Ladies we have to keep our PMA, I pray we all have our BFP. This is a great group of ladies and you ladies are my online family. I look forward everyday to come and chat. I am praying for you all. Baby dust to us all.

Hi Ladies,
I hope you all had a good weekend! I decided to POAS this weekend and it was BFP! I started spotting this morning though and I know i've read a million times that it's common, but I can't help but freak out a little bit! I have my blood test on Wednesday. I'm so scared that this could be AF.

J3_379 Big Congrats i am delighted for you :lol: . Try not to worrry about the spotting, yesterday and today about 1hr after i use the progesterone supp (tmi) i have some discharge and it has a light pink tone to it but for the rest of the day its ok. I am praying its ok and nothing serious as well but its very light and only happens just after crinone. I am still cramping oh i wish i could just feel pregnant and not as if AF is coming!!!
Best of luck with your Beta, how many days after transfer are you??

Thanks ladies for the well wishes. Doc said the cramping is fine but it still freaks me out a bit. I'm still cramping some but nothing like the other morning. I'm hoping it was just implantation. No spotting so that's a relief too.

And yes, those darn suppositories. Ugh! My Doc has me actually doing both shots of progesterone and at night a combo estrogen/progesterone suppository. I'm a walking hormone that's for sure. And wish the cramping would just go away.

To top it off I haven't been sleeping great either and am exhausted today.

Random question, do you ladies feel super full after eating even just a little meal. I mean, I had half a sandwich just now for lunch and feel super full. Is this normal?

cheryl010120: Wecolme, The more the merrier. Thats great you had 3 great embies. I just had my beta yesturday and I got a BFP 229. I go for my 2nd beta tomorrow. I pray it doubles. Glad you joined. GL on Wed.

JG_379: yayyy that is a great sign you got that BFP. I spotted 2 days ago also and freaked out but it stopped and the dr said it was normal and plus im cramping with these evil suppositories. Dont worry I dont think its AF. Keep that PMA and GL on Wed.

Gi: I feel the same way like AF is coming with these cramps but im keeping that PMA. Im glad you keep getting BFPs on your HPTs. I say the same thing, until I see my babies on that monitor or in my arms I wont stop worrying.

Baby Dust to us all and Patience dust to those who are waiting.

cheryl- the fullness after a meal comes from the bloating after ER, i think. i had the same thing. it took me two days after ER to figure out why i was so miserable, then it took a week for that feeling to go away. i just ate several small meals to try and compensate. it was hard though, b/c i would be starving, but i could only eat a little b/c i felt as if i would burst!
me- 30 and normal

:( Well ladies I am sad to report that we did not get our miracle this time. We are pretty devestated as I am sure all of you understand. I just can't make heads or tails of why not us??? This is such a roller coaster each time-emotionally, physically, financially. I just want it to happen for us and each failed cycle makes me feel like it never will. I guess we will see what happens when we meet with the Dr. on Tues to go over everything.


For those still waiting for their betas I wish you positive high numbers!!! And those that got their BFP feel good and enjoy every minute!

Its been great chatting with you ladies-thanks for your support & good luck!

Hey ladies!
I'm going to jump in here too. I used a message board and a great group got me through my first IVF in 2005, but for some reason I have been in denial about this FET being as traumatic and emotional! I had my ET on 8/24, 3 frozen 3d embies with beta on 9/7 (ugh!!). I took a HPT today and BFN. What was I thinking???? I took a HPT with my DS on 8dp3dt and BFN, then another at 10dpt with BFP. So this cycle I split the difference today with a HPT at 9dp3dt. I was just SURE it was going to be BFP. So that brings me here b/c I am really losing the hope today!

I read through the posts and some of you already have your BFP - that is great!!! Anyone else POAS lately with a BFN?

jandc- I am so so sorry. It is so hard to go through all this but know that it will be your time- that's the hardest part of all, you don't get to know when but it will happen. Do something special for yourself cuz you deserve it for going through all that we do in a cycle. I am thinking of and praying for you and dh to have strength.

I couldn't help myself this afternoon and I decided to poas and it was a bfn...maybe it was too early but my beta is tomorrow so I'm thinking it will be bad news...I guess I won't give up yet but I will have to ask dh to get more hpts now on his way home cuz I wasn't going to do it till tomorrow...oh well...

ladybug- Hope your second beta went good today!

Take care all, Laura

Hi there,

Is anyone else out there so tired that they can hardly stand it? I could nod off as I'm typing...

I just transferred yesterday - one coming out of the shell and 2 other really good ones.

Crampy and oh so tired. ugh!

I am so sorry for the BFNs. Please don't lose hope. It didn't work for me until my 3rd IVF.

Thanks!
