HI girls just popping in to say a few words to some old cycle buddies,

Franny oh hon i am so sorry about your neg. and that Barry isnt to well at the moment i hope he has a speedy recovery. I really hoped you would finally get some good news and i know only to well how hard it is to remain positve when you keep getting those negatives. For some reason since you have been mentioning donor embies i kept thinking that you may prob. be on the same destination as our Katie who after 7 cycles is as you know nearly due her little miracle. I was with a friend for lunch today who is pg after her 1st attempt and she said she cant even contemplate how we did 7 but i just knew my little miracle was out there somewhere, yes its extremely tough but never give up on your and Barrys dream xxxx

Karen i am glad to hear you and your bionic cervix is now recovering, i think of you and your little angels often - actually i was telling the girl i had lunch today with about you and your strength to continue after such a heartbreaking loss. I cant wait to follow your journey.

Sonya nice to see you back and rearing to go again, i hope you get your meds on time and as usual cant wait to see your POAS addiction!!!

Lou yeah for not been cancelled. Dont you be worrying about your figure, i am sure its as amazing as ever, soon your are gonna have a bfp belly!

gi xx

Oh Chili.....I'm sorry I don't know what to say (((HUGS)))

Lou.....that's great news! I know that maybe you weren't prepared, but you must be stoked right now!

Rio....yeah....I'm secretly stalking all the young, pretty girls in Orange County right now. Makes me want to go to the local colleges and hang out. How are you?

Hi all

Franny - I'm so sorry for your BFN. You sound like an amazingly strong lady and DH sounds like a really special man. I'm sure that a big dose of good luck is due to head your way soon.

Chili - I was so hoping those PMS symptoms were pregnancy symptoms. They can be really similar. Take the time you need to process and we are here for you.

Lou - wahoo! Not long to wait now. Am looking forward to following your progress. How on earth would you fit yoga in as well. I'm really impressed with you writing your post from memory! I really struggle to keep up. Hope you have fun at your reunion.

Teresa - twins!! Yippppppeeeee! What fantastic news. IF I get the BFP confirmed today and IFmy BETAs are looking good, I'm secretly hoping that it would be twins. I doubt that I'd go through IVF for a second child at my age. But never say No!

Txc - it must be really hard postponing your cycle but I've got my fingers crossed that this will all bode well for you in your next cycle.

Blang - I got a fertility report every day with my 3-day embies. The embryologist at the clinic is a bit of a crack up and is so passionate about embryos. He called mine 'beautiful' and 'perfect'. As you can imagine, that is sweet words to your ears during a cycle.

Margi - is that amount of pain normal after ganglion cyst removal? It sounds awful.

Ryann - sending lots of positive thoughts your way. Stay strong! Not far now.

AFM - I'm waiting for the phone call. Mobile in my pocket and waiting, waiting, waiting. I'm freaking out a bit about the BETA numbers.

My Aussie visitors left this morning and the house seems very very quiet. It was so lovely having a family occupy the place for a week. Family dinners around the table, bath time, bed time and story reading. Ahhhh! We all deserve to have that! We had a fantastic week and kept almost as busy as Lou! - live children's theatre, wildlife reserves, visiting friends and family, ceramics painting, shopping, playgrounds, cafes...busy, busy, busy. But good, it's help to make my 2WW go much faster.

Anyway, weekend wishes to all....

Hi, Not sure if I uploaded the pic right. She is only 13 days old in the pic and so cute and tiny! I am waiting for new pics tonight, since she just opened her eyes today.

Franny - I am glad everything went well with Barry. I am so sorry about the BFN!

Ryann - My DH needs to be more bossy. He usually goes along with me, and sometimes I need a no!!! lol! You should just surprise him with a puppy! I am glad to hear your dad is home too.

Lauren - Congrats on your ER. Good luck with ET.

You guys wrote like crazy today! I am trying to catch up! My D&C is still October 28. I am not bothering to call and see if there were cancellations. Time seems to be flying by since it's almost Christmas and I am broke lol!

[margi26]

Lauren she is sooooo adorable...and so tiny! I love her!

[nbfun]

Quick question -- Do any of y'all have "ovary pain" while on Lupron? Off and on I have what feels like -- well the only way I can describe it is the way it feels when I ovulate every month. It's not terrible but I notice it. Is this normal? Should I contact my RE?

Thanks!
Nancy

[Tess69]

Hi everybody

It's a confirmed BFP for me. Yay! Beta 150 and progesterone 160. So far so good. Fingers crossed.

Nancy - from what I can recall, I had ovary niggles pretty much all the way through my 1st cycle.

Lauren1171 - how cute is your puppy 'to be'. You must be very excited.

[amanda1979]

Franny- I am so sorry about the BFN. I hope Berry gets to feeling better soon. It sounds like he is on his way to fast & good recovery.

Teresa- woohoo on the twins

Chilli- I am sorry to hear about the BFN. I hope your RE can give you some answers.


AFM: I am sorry I haven't been on in awhile. My DH is doing good and he has an appointment with a Neuro doc this coming Tuesday. I think it was a one time event. I can't remember if ya'll know this about me or not but I have Lupus SLE. My old rhumetologist left and I just saw the new one this past week. The new guy wants me off the predisone and on Plaquenil which is what I have a concern about. The old doc said there would be no birth defects on predisone but would be on plaquenil. The new doc states there are birth defects on predisone but none has been link to plaquenil. I have no idea what to do. Plaquenil takes 2months to start working and 6 months to get out of your system once you stop taking it. It is stressful enough trying to become pregnant and now I have to worry about birth defects..GEEZ!!! I think I will check with my RE and see what he thinks and check the lupus boards. I wish I knew someone else who had Lupus. Anyways, I pray everyone is doing well on their journeys.

[margi26]

Tess Woohoo!!! Great beta! Congratulations!!

Amanda--glad DH is doing better. I would definitely see what your RE has to say about the lupus medication. What about your OBGYN? Do you have a good relationship there? Mine is always a great resource for the pregnancy questions....best of luck.

[karin1]

Tess......Congrats! Sooooo happy for you! You're on your way to ALL of those wonderful things! The time with your friends was just a warm-up of great moments to come! You deserve it!

Amanda....it's great to hear from you again.

Lauren1171......OMGosh! That puppy is the cutest thing ever! I'm jealous!

[DandMe]

Oh wow there is so much happening on this board.. it'simpossible to jump in and keep up! Thankfully my meds arrived from both sources and we are a go - took my first rounds of meds tonight and feel like I am officially on my way.

[BLang4d]

I just wanted to pop in and give my 3 day update. I have one 8 cell and a 4 cell. She said they were checked early this morning so that 4 cell could also be an 8 cell by now. My 5 day transfer is scheduled for Monday afternoon.

Franny and Chilli, I'm so sorry about your BFN.

Tess, congrats on your BFP

I hope you all have a great weekend.
