Tammy- you ARE an awesome threesome. You have a beautiful family and in the short time I have spent reading your posts on this board I also know you are a beautiful person. Praying for you tonight, that whatever happens you will continue to have hope and peace.

Kbillsy and Heather- congrats on being PUPO! Have fun in crazy town. Thinking sticky thoughts for you both.

Jen- If it helps you can add me to the list of people who thinks its probably too early for a BFP. You have beautiful, genetically perfect embies growing inside you. Relax and enjoy your pregnancy. :D

Wishingandhoping,
I was hoping you would get to trigger and have ER before Friday, no more meds yay!! Time is really going to fly for you this week and very soon my IVF sista, you will be PUPO!

The boards have been rather quiet today, but we are barely midweek and it's still too early to POAS! JenMink, Fruit and Vicky, I'm thinking of you tonight and certainly going to say some prayers that everything goes well with the lab results! :mrgreen:

jenmink- try and keep your head up until the beta. There really are some people who cant get a positive reading at home even after the beta so my fingers are staying crossed for you.

Tammy- You are such a strong woman and even though this was a difficult situation I know you will be able to make it through. You have a very handsome little boy and a great looking family but I am hoping the insurance all works itself out and you get one more go at this. Best of luck with everything.

wishingandhoping- Sounds like you have some great follies in there!!! Stinks that you have to trigger at 1am but that means one step closer to the retrieval on thursday. How many are you planning to transfer?

kbillsy- As for how many we have I have no idea. I dont go back to the MD until May 4 for my first ultrasound and will be 7 wks then. They sounded like it should be more than 1 given the high betas but when I checked betabase I could fit in single,twin, or triplet - so who knows. I am feeling very bloated, mild cramps off and on, low back pain, and sore boobs...but other than that nothing exciting. Congrats on being PUPO!!! Not too much longer before the testing can begin.

fruit- that beta is quickly approaching!! testing at home before hand?? I think a vacation afterwards sounds like a good idea either way. Even though our vacation was before the beta its nice to get away from all the md visits and craziness.

vicky- Dont let the usual AF symptoms throw you off. Im still having slight cramps and everyone has assured me that its completely normal. Fingers are crossed for you.

nwquiz- Im ok with 2 but 3 may be a little much to handle. Sorry you had a crazy nurse- I think sometimes they just send them in to test you. Glad you asked for another US since you werent confident in her though. Good luck and keep us all posted.

Hello Ladies,

Well I have my results......................BFP!!!!! It's POSITIVE! :D :D :D OMG me and DH can't believe it. We've been in shock all morning. We keep looking to make sure it hasn't disappeared or that we've imagined it!! It's definitely TWO very dark lines!! We are feeling every emotion going! It really doesn't seem real! We are counting the minutes until we can contact the unit this afternoon. I've got SO many questions and queries to ask!

I can't believe I am saying "I'm pregnant" I keep waiting to wake up from this dream! I think I'm going to be deaf in my ear from people screaming down the phone to me! LOL

Thank you so so so much to all those that sent me sticky baby dust - you've done a marvellous job! :D

I am truly thankful for everyone's support and love, you are very special people to me.

It's that horrible waiting game now until I have my first scan in 3 weeks time. Then I'll believe I'm pregnant!

Fruit - I'm waiting to hear your BFP result tomorrow :D

Will update you later x

No day 5 transfer for me, too much fluid. OHSS is horrible! Bed rest until at least Monday. Froze our blasto's and will have to do FET in two cycles (about June - right behind you Anton!). Have to check for a board for those of us doing FET in a few months. One good thing is that we have blats to use so they will thaw 5 of the 32 that are frozen at the proneuclear stage to see how they grow and if they don't, we have back up. Guess I'll get some srping cleaning done after all! :)

Moorebaby - wishing you lots of luck today!!!

Margi- Thanks for the heads up. I am glad my OHSS "peaked" yesterday. This is the most horrible feeling. They were going to keep me, but gave me fluids and strick instructions. Ready for this to be over!

Thanks Ladies for all the encouragement! So glad I found this board and lots and lots of baby dust to all!

congrats vicky. way to start a morning.
Just a quick note to let you ladies know i went for sns.and of course the doc wants to cancel my cycle coz i have to m any follicles sprouting everywhere. am doing iui and that is scary. so after a long talk and the reduction lecture he agreed to proceed with this cycle. anyway i have 8 measurable and many behind it. am scared to death but what do i do now. Let nature take care of things. He even reminded me that this was my last cycle and if i was sure i wanted to proced. well i have invested so much cash to turn back now. anyway they range from 16-19mm and lininig is at 20mm. so e2 is way to high. wish me luck and hope i made the right choice. i might be looking for someon to adopt a baby if all 8 take. :roll: :mrgreen:

Crashing for Ester.....

Good luck Ester!!!! I know you will have amazing blasts today to transfer. Your BFP is just around the corner! Much love.

Vicky -- Congratulations! Did you have a beta yet? Yes, the wait for that first scan is agonizing but so worth it when you see that little flickering heart.

nwquiz -- Good luck to you. 8 follies is a lot for an IUI so your chances are fantastic. Hope you don't become the next Octomom though! :shock: :wink:
