Mamaboo - the progesterone makes us really moody. It makes me so unbearable that I cant stand myself when i'm on it. Hang in there everything is moving along well for you and there is no reason why it should change. Stay positive, get some rest and give your hubby a kiss good nite :D

AFM, no signs of AF yet. I am staying positive. AF will visit when the time is right so that all things will be just right for my FET. I guess I should just enjoy the few more days I have before I receive a visit

Forgot I was supposed to double up on PIO from here on out. Had to do a second shot! To top it all off, I made hubby mad at me - I yelled at him for leaving dirty dishes in the sink. :evil: Think I need a good night's sleep!

Mamaboo- go to sleep! You are going to be just fine my pregnant sister in IVF. :D

WeHaveHope wrote:Hi ladies,

Katie-I will be praying for you. Hopefuly, the Beta will go up. Stay positive.

I hope all is well with everyone. I haven't had much time today to catch up. I will do so later this evening.

AFM, I called my RE on Friday. I was use to taking Provera for 10 days, buy noticed on Thursday that there were 12 pills in the bottle. My 10 dose were finished on Thursday. To My surprise, The nurse said to take The remaining two doses. What was I thinking when I called??? Of course the nurse was going to say to take the other two. But my RE has alwYs ordered 12 and only instructed me to take 10. I was not happy. Two more days of delay!!! Then I thought about it. Well, this gives me two more days of feeling like myself. After everything that has happened with this cycle it has really cut into my time with hubby, if you know what I mean. At least this gave me the entire weekend without AF. Not that AF has ever been a problem in that respect, sorry for TMI. It's just that with all of the medications and hormones, AF has been a terror the last few times she visited. Not allowing for anytime with hubby. So a negative turned positive. The things we all have to do to find a little positive in this rollercoater journey. I don't feel lime AF is comming anytime soon. I felt like it was on Thursday. I felt very down and blue. But this weekend I have felt my my cheery self. Really being able to enjoy everything and everyone around me. So let's see how much longer AF will take before she visits me and I can start on BCP. My hubby and I haven't exactly been following RE's request when having intercourse either. After I finally felt better from the OHSS we just said "what the heck"!!! So we shall see. I definitely need to focus on the things in life that I can controll and not on the ones that I can't. AF will come when she is good and ready. Hugs and kisses to all.
WeHaveHope- good for you finding the silver lining. I am all about TMI- infertility and IVF can really rob you of your marital mojo and I think its terrific that you and DH have been pushing the envelope. What I LOVE about FET is that our Doctor prescribes a Baby Dance the night before transfer. I guess there is a German study that found that DH's little soldiers may help stimulate the lining and make it receptive to our little beans. Of course he only prescribes it on FET out of fear that it will cause issues when your ovaries are stimmed on a fresh cycle. His feeling is, why not try it? I love it because being tubeless it is the one and only time that getting groovy with DH might lead to a pregnancy. Glad you enjoyed your little unexpected break...now I start dancing for you. Hmmmmm... let's see....

I am in my living room doing salsa shimmies side to side singing "Let's get this party started". :-)

Bliss-we should all join you and do the baby dance. I am sure it couldn't hurt. Well, maybe we shouldn't use the skates. That may be dangerous. Ha ha ha!!!

Love it Crissylove- thanks! I cheer for the SEC and anyone but Duke. Its great to have you in our corner.

WeHaveHope- glad it made you smile. Cute kitty pic! And weird but cute baby pic!!! :lol:

Reminds me of a story...my 2 year old niece was here last weekend and she saw one of my adoption books that had a picture of four babies on it. She was asking me which one I wanted...then she pointed to one and said "I am going to buy you this baby". Ha ha! Keep in mind she has NO IDEA that DH and I are thinking about doing almost exactly that.

Kids say the darndest things!

Night ladies!

YEY MAMABOO!! CONGRATS!!! when do you have your first u/s?


Blair - how are you doing? When is ER?

Bliss - I love the story about your niece. That is so cute. You will get your baby one way or another. Hopefully it will be with this next FET just to make life easier.

WehaveHope - Doing the AF dance for you too. Well just for you i want her to stay away for me. Once she gets here buts the time line till your transfer?

Katie - i am so very sorry that this cycle didn't work. I know it sucks. Do you know what you might do next?

SD - YEY!! for stopping meds. i am hoping i get to stop mine in less then 2 weeks.

crissy - how are you doing? Sorry you have to go to 10 weeks. my butt cheeks are hating me right now, don't know if i could make it to 10 weeks.

AFM - Have my u/s tomorrow. Finally!!! My PMA is down because i have been having these bad cramps that feel like someone is trying to pull out my uterus. I am hoping i have one little bean in there with a healthy HB.
