Hello ladies,

Just a quick note before I leave the hospital for the day (can't wait to be home and cuddle with my doggie, cat, and hubby-bubby! I think I'll cook an avocado/smoked salmon cold soup for tonight... a very nice treat!). By the way, AF started, bright red; I upgraded to pads this afternoon. Ah, well.

I wanted to say... you guys are truly amazing. Thank you for giving me so much support and virtual hugs! It's absolutely priceless! And thanks for saying that I've helped your PMA as well; it really makes my day! You know I have that at heart big time!

Jovigal: thanks for your kind words sweetie. Yes, my dream is real, and yes, I still believe in it and what you said is so true! It will happen in the right time. Not always easy to be patient, lol, but I'm working on it! Hearing that little heartbeat must have been PRICELESS! Awwwwwww! I'm so happy for you! You've got a strong embie in there, already ahead of time! I'm glad you'll see your RE often before being released; must be reassuring for you, especially as you make your way to your second trimester. Keeping everything crossed for you!

jenn: hey there darling! Yup, those frosties soften the blow BIG TIME! I'll be thinking of them for sure! Thanks for your hugs, hunny, they comfort me a lot! When you said you were shocked about the one beanie, do you mean you were disappointed not to see twins? If so, I can perfectly understand... after all, when you transfer two, you want them both to survive... but I'm delighted that the little fighter you've got in there clings to life and grows well! What amazing news! I hope they're not scaring you too much with all the blood tests, or at least not putting any pressure on you. Feb 9th sounds lovely!

ltayolr: thank you for your kind words sweetie, they're appreciated very much!

mandeeq: come here, you! *HUGS* you're so sweet! I just want to reach out of the screen and hug you! Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers, they mean a lot!

gbnut: thanks for your words dear. I know, I had a good vibe about me too! Me and DH are the best team there can be; we're sometimes very different, but those differences make us stronger. I love him to death and I can't wait to see him tonight! *hugs*

Let me get home, have dinner, and I'll update the list to show off all the good news we have with all the u/s!

Lots of love,

Sophie

Sohpie,

I am so sorry it didn't work this time, life is so unfair. I know nothing I can say here can make things any easier or make you feel better but know you are in my thoughts and I am sending you lots of love and hugs over the web.
You have an amazing attitude and I am sure over the next few months a couple of your frosties will step up to the challange and make your dream come true.

With lots of hugs,

Angela

Hi ladies,


Sophie, thank for taking time to comfort me. You are truly a wonderful. That meal sound tasy . I truly believe August is going to BFP for you. Enjoy you night sweetie. Love Ya.

Jenn How exciting you got to see you baby, you've got a fighter. Thank you soo much for sharing you boob story with me I am freaking out today, I know in the end what will be will be, but i can't help, but be hopeful. So my love you gave me hope. I am not going to take the HPT too scared to do so. Your DH is cute, my DH wants twins as well. I wonder if they had to carry they would want twins . You are on your sweetie.

Mandeeq, thanks for the well wishes.

Julie and Jenn779 hope you get the BFP. how is your 2ww going?

Thanks for all the support. All you ladies are so amazing, you are all strong loving women, who take the time to support women you have never met with such love, I am blessed to have you all in my life.

Hey Gals! I am starting to feel a little better now....felt like crap earlier. Spoke to my RE's office and my white blood cell count was slightly elevated 10.9, the top of the range is 10.8, so my body is definitely fighting off something. I haven't had much of an appetite, but I do feel better when I force myself to eat.

Mommytobe...I wouldn't worry so much about your boobs hurting or not, it everyone experiences those symptoms. It could have been that they were sore before from the meds too. What time is your appt tomorrow? Are you going to test today with a HPT?

Jenn...I am shocked that there aren't 2 buns in the oven! I understand your disappointment...that would have been awesome to have twins.

Jovigal...what an awesome experience to be able to hear the heartbeat. I am sure you ae conting down the days til the due date!

My2LnT...Your pics were great, thanks for sharing. Absoultely amazing!

Sophie...I have to once again say that you are such a strong women for moving on and looking to the future. I hope and pray August gives you a BFP! Please keep in touch!!!

Here is another strange thing I have been experiencing...NIGHT SWEATS! I thought that maybe it was because I was running a fever, but it has happened 2 nights now and neither time was I running a fever. I woke up absolutely drenched. Crazy...
I have to go back for another WBC on Thursday. I can't help but wonder if they do a beta on me anyways. On Monday when I went in the took two vials of blood. I am sure that you don't need 2 vials for a CBC???

Jen, glad you're getting better, that's rough being ill during your 2ww. Are you going to test before your time, I'm getting confused now with who's doing what!

Tia, my boobs aren't sore any more either which has me worried. But then again they were last time and I got a BFN so who knows. Pregnant ladies how were your boobs the days leading up to your test? So tomorrow's the day isn't it? Good luck lady, let's get the BFPs going again.

Angela and Mandeeq, good to hear from you guys. Hope you're both doing well.

Soph, sorry pet, sounds like a BFN now. Also sounds like you're doing really well. I truly believe your bod struggled with the OHSS. Roll on your FET in August.

Jenn, one beanie is amazing! You're pregnant! Yippee. It must have been so exciting to see it on the screen. Congrats to you.

Jovigal, you heard the heartbeat, how exciting. It sure is a hard 2 weeks.

Steph, wow! It's really starting to form now, what amazing images, especially the second one!

Liberatriz, not long now. I do so hope this works out for you and your donor mum, she has been through so much too. Hope the travels go well.

Tanya, that's exciting you get discharged tomorrow, hope the ultrasound goes well and shows you your little darlings nice and clearly.

Susan, nearly your turn for your scan, hope it goes well sweetie.

Well I'm ok, anxious of course, but ok. I keep going between thinking it's worked and then that it hasn't. My tum's still a bit crampy but nothing much, my boobs aren't sore any more, I felt a bit sick again earlier but am fine now. Who knows! Is it quite normal to not really have symptoms and still be pg? I'm not going to test tomorrow but will maybe do Thursday. I really hope this is it, please let my beanie be in there quietly nestling in.

Sleepy time for me.

Night all

Julie...I am probably going to do a HPT, but not until Friday or Saturday. If this were a normal cycle, my period would be due on Friday. So we will see!
To all you Prego Ladies...what were some of your symptoms during the 2ww???

[TansRN]

Hello Guys
Things went well today got to see the little peanuts and boy are they getting big already! It was a surprise after only one week I can see their little bodies taking form and it was really neat. The us tech was horrible. She was in a hurry and didnt get me good shots. Oh well. I at least got to see them and know that they are both progressing well. They are measuring 7W 1D and looking good. My due date is Jan 24th. I am officially discharged and on to the peri....hope that you are doing well I am thinking about you. Hi Tia, Susan, Angela!!!!!!!

You can see the pics at www.thejourneyforbaby.blogspot.com

Onward and upward...

Steph
I have to look at your u/s photo I will do that in a minute...I am so excited to look at it. How are you doing????

Sophie
I am so sorry to hear about your BFN and the fact that you are ready to move on to FET. We will be here to support you and to keep encouraging you! I am looking forward to hearing how it goes for you. It is a lot less hassle than the full blown IVF you will be much happier with the cycle process itself. I do care about you and i know that you are hurting so bad. It really does stink. I am ready to hold you up though and help carry you through until August when you can go and get your frosties. How many do you have frozen? We love you girl!!!!!!!

Jenn
you at least have a really strong bean in there a REALLY strong bean!!! That is great. I am so thrilled for you guys and I can't wait to hear the h/b report. This is so exciting. You will really start to weep when you see that.

Jen
I am so sorry that you are so sick still. That is not a good feeling at any time....I hope that you continue to feel better and that you are on the upward track of this illness. I had some nausea in waves, slight AF type cramping like she was for sure on her way and that is about it. Boob tenderness but for me it was before the transfer from the meds.....

Jule
Symptoms come and go. I think that my bbs should be sore all the time from me grabbing at them to check! LOL If I keep checking like that they should be black and blue by now...are they or are they not? LOL Anyhow it can all be a normal part of pregnancy.......or meds. This is why is stinks....uncertainty!!!! WE are here for you and can't wait to hear.

[mommytobe]

Hi Ladies,

Good luck to all the other ladies in the 2ww. May you also get the BFP.


Hugs
Tia
