Rinnie! Oh I hope that this is a viable pregnancy for you! I will keep everything crossed for you! It is rising..that is always a good sign. Keep your PMA!

As for me, RE called and said to keep meds as is for now. I will go back friday morning and pray that many more follies decided to pop up! They also want me to do my Ganirelix shot thursday night, so Im thinking that my ER will be Sunday or Monday. I am hoping for Monday so I can go to a wedding on Saturday(6 hrs away) and I have an important meeting at work that I will miss if its Sunday because of where that puts my ET. So I am still just stimming away hoping my follies grow!

LB- IM PRAYIN FOR YA!!!!!

Wow! A lot of 2ww's are coming to a close. How exciting!

LB & Aims - Good luck!

For the rest of the 2ww'ers, don't stress.....stress isn't good for the embies. I know it's easier said than done, but I've been there and done that a couple times already, so I know what you're going thru. Just continue to take it one day at a time.

As for me, the nurse said my 6 embryos are growing nicely.....so nice that they're thinking about stretching my ET out 5days (Fri) instead of 3days (Wed). I won't know until tomorrow morning which it'll be. Either way, I just want them to stick this time. Did any of you BFP's do a 5day transfer? If so, how many embies did they transfer?

Oh, I started AP today. It was my first time. I was surprised how relaxed I was.....I really felt a difference. Now, if I can just continue to relax like this during the rest of this process, I'll be golden!

Have a good night Ladies!

Hello ladies! I got all caught up and did my best to update the list again. There's a lot of action on this board!

Rinnie and SDTrying - CONGRATS!! So happy for you both. Rinnie, I always heard that things look good as long as it doubles...I'll be anxious to hear about your next test results...praying for you!!

Love Bug - I am so sorry to hear your disappointing news, Hope that you find the strength to determine your next step and move forward...whatever direction that might be (back to the RE's office or Hawaii...either one sound like great ideas!).

To all the rest of you...hoping and praying for more BFPs on this board! I will go back to the doc next week for another ultrasound. I don't have a very good feeling that my cysts have been shrinking...I've been having a lot of discomfort. I'm still working with APist...so hopefully she's getting some good results. I will keep you all posted!

Kimmy - how was your trip to Brookfield? Did you end up getting AP while you were here?

Have a great night, ladies! Hugs, Jen

Hi everyone.. how r u all doing.. I hope u had a wonderful weekend....

I started my stims yesterday and after 2 doses of Follistim and repronex since yesterday I still dont feel anything in my stomach :(( I am very nervous and praying each moment that follicles grow inside me... Last cycle also my body didnt react to medicine and I had to cancel it... Please Please pray for me that it works this time.....

I dont go for an ultrasound until Friday... I am not sure what my RE is upto.. I have moved to Des Moines, IA couple of months back and shown the RE here... Is there anyone else from Des Moines too here on this board....

With tons of prayers for everyone and lots and lots of baby dust to all...
God Bless!

Wow...lots of stuff going on!!
Seems to be some confusion about my post. My beta went up from 75.8 to 178 in 4 days not 2....it should have quadrupled to around 300 and it didn't.
Anyhooo...I'm trying to stay positive because you never know in this process.

LB & AIMs I am really pulling for you tomorrow!!!!!!

Ads Thanks as always for that list...it's a long one..unbelievable.

IMBlessed I'm glad you tried acupuncture & that it was relaxing for you. It'll help a lot with sticking...try & do it at least a couple of times in that week after ET. With the 6 you should probably go to 5days....I wish I'd had enough to do that.

Neffi Thanks! & grow follies grow!

Cocosmama Thanks to you too, for your support!!

Hopin That's good info to know. I've been reading around & have seen a few odd beta numbers so I guess that happens with IVF. I'm keeping the faith! NC sounds nice...make room for a nursery :)

All the 2WW's...hang in & stay strong. I feel exactly the same way....the waiting never ends :)

Hi Everyone! Wow, i had a lot to catch up on from the long weekend! Sounds like everyone had a pretty good weekend, which is great!

Rinnie - So excited for your BFP and keep the faith and stay positive!

LB & AIMS - Can't wait to hear about your Beta's tomorrow...keep those BFP's rolling in :)

Amber - Stay positive that your body is working to process the drugs and get things on track for you...i have you in my prayers! Grow follies grow! :)

Ads - hey neighbor :) I hope when you go back next week you are diagnosed with a case of the "incredible shrinking cysts" and you can get back in the swing of things :)

Dakota - Good luck with starting your stims! I will be right behind ya - I start mine on Thursday - yay!!

To everyone else, lots of hugs & strength to get you through whatever phase you are at...

I spent most of the weekend trying to get through these *(&$(#& Lupron headaches...argghh...minor annoyance in the grand scheme of things... ;)

I have an apptmt w/ RE Thursday and should be starting stims then too...one step closer...I am getting excited!

Have a good night everyone!

rinnie- when's your next beta? And when is the ultrasound? I'm sorry to hear you didn't double, that would have been more reassuring, but just because your number isn't reassuring certainly doesn't mean it's terrible news. I've heard that many slow risers do just fine, so keep faith, you never know what can happen. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs.

Good Wednesday morning ladies! Looks like another busy BETA DAY!! Good luck LB and AIMS!!! Can't wait to hear your betas!!

Rinnie: At least your number is rising! That should be a good sign! Can't wait to hear the report for tomorrow! I'm praying for you!

hopinginpa: I was born raised and still live in NC!! I love it here and couldn't imagine living anywhere else! We have mountains, beaches, plains, we have it all! Where in NC are you looking?

Neffi: Good luck on the timing of your ER/ET!!

IMBlessed: Glad to hear your 6 are progressing well! Sounds like you will have some frosties! Enjoy the AP!!

Ads: Thanks again for the list. It is so hard to keep up with everyone! There are so many! Best of luck w/your cysts. I hope the AP helps.

Amber: I didn't really feel anything until after being on stims for like 7 days!! So don't stress! I am sure your body is doing just what it needs to!

queenie: Things move quick during stims! One step closer!

SD: How are you feeling?

To all the 2ww'ers with me, it's almost here! I'm praying for you all! To the stimmers, grow follies!! To everyone else, you are getting closer everyday!

Ladies - thanks for all of your support through all of my issues - it means a lot, and apparently it works - I got a BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The number is 128, which isn't too high but they said they were happy with it. I go back on Friday so here's hoping it doubles!! I am so overwhelmed, I don't even know what to think right now!!!

Aims - hope it's good news for you too!

Everyone else - sending lots of baby dust your way!!
