Morning Ladies - Sorry that I have been MIA lately but between the holidays and the fact that our computer had been acting up, I hadn't been able to post. Too bad I can't do this at work

.
Lola - Congratulations on the twins! I am so happy for you. When you had first posted your beta numbers, my first thought was twins

. That is such awesome news. I am sorry to hear about the third baby. Is there a chance that he/she could actually develop into a healthy baby?
Wannababy - Congratulations to you as well on your BFP. I was so anxious to hear your news and when I couldn't log on to find out, it was killing me. But when I did find out, it was worth it. Good for you. How are you feeling? Has the shock wore off yet?
Mia - I am glad to hear your stimming is going well. Do you have an estimated time as to when you would like to do the FET? In some ways, I envy you because you are getting the ER part out of the way and will be able to do the FET when you are ready. You'll be able to enjoy the holidays without the added stress of the 2ww and everything else that goes along with the ET.
Also, don't let your mom let you down. I know that she means well and all she wants is the very best for you. I can understand her point of view because we are putting our bodies and minds through a lot but I think for all of us, if we end up pregnant, then it is so worth it.
Suzhan - Please don't give up hope yet. Don't get discouraged by the HPT. You never know what the blood test will tell you. Please hang in there. I am praying for you and you are in my thoughts. Good luck on Monday. You don't know what might happen.
Bobo - Welcome to the board. I am so sorry to hear about your BFN. From what I understand, a chemical pregnancy is exactly what Lola says - a very early miscarriage. Please don't give up hope but also give yourself some time to grieve as well. We are here for you.
Emily - Welcome to the board.
Sam - How exciting that you are at the point in your pregnancy to be able to find out the gender. That is so cool. I am so excited for you. I hope it turns out the way you wish.
As for me, it looks like the earliest that I'll be able to start again is in January. My RE has a new protocol for me - instead of down regging and then starting stims, he has me starting Gonal-F on day 2 of my cycle. I wanted to start right away but they wanted me to have at least one period after the miscarriage. But the next cycle (provided my cycles aren't messed up) is due in mid-December and they don't like to do new cycles so close to Christmas. My DH is happy because he wanted a break from it and give my body a chance to recover. I can understand his point but in some ways, I just want to get going again. I've been doing new projects to keep me occupied but there is still a part of me that isn't fully into any of them because my mind is elsewhere.
Have a great weekend. Sorry that my post is so long.
