Mamaboo-WooHoo!!! I am sooooo happy for you.
Tohavefun-good luck tomorrow.
SD-congrats on no more meds!!!
Bliss-I am still laughing about yesterday.
Katie-how are you doing? Sending you lots of hugs.
Crissy-hand in there.
Blair-are you scheduled for ER yet?
Indigofire-how is everything going?

AFM-No signs of AF yet! I called the nurse today and she said that it could take up to 10 days after my last dose of Provera. I have taken Provera many times and have always seen AF a day or two after my last dose of Provera. Not sure what in the world is going on. Can't worry about it though. I am determined to enjoy my days until AF comes. FET was schedules for May 5th. I am thinking now it will be more like 2nd or 3rd week of May.

mamaboo- What a great beta!!!!!!! Congrats over and over...im thinking twins! So excited for the US in 2 weeks!

wehavehope- I am mentally doing the AF dance for you. I would physically dance but since its beyond uncomfortable to sit or stand Ill continue to do it in my head. Just stay positive and know that it will all happen soon. I kept getting frustrated that things were pushed back so much but finally realized that its just my bodys way of getting ready for a pregnancy!

fun- Im doing ok but just ready to get going with the ER. WOOO HOOO for the US today! I cant wait to hear how it goes so keep us posted. Hoping you see a healthy bean with a strong HB.

katie- How are you doing?

bliss- I agree with you- I will cheer for just about anyone except Duke. DH had Duke winning the bracket and if they did win he would have won the bracket and about $100...but I couldnt pull myself to cheer them on. Getting excited for the game on saturday...busy wknd for me. How are things moving with you? Is the official date april 27?

crissy- Glad you will cheer the Cats to victory! Cheer extra loud saturday just in case. Hows the pregnancy going for you?

AFM- As much as I love that we are getting closer to having a baby...I am very uncomfortable right now. It hurts to sit or stand which is what I have to do at work all day. I am ready to go in tomorrow morning for the ER and get some good eggs! I did the Ovidrel last night at exactly 8:30 so I am ready to go. No food/drink after 11 tonight so im counting down the hours until bed. Itll be an early morning because we have to drive an hour and a half and be there by 7:15 but Im sooooo excited. I was in the mood for a change and went and got my hair chopped off monday too. I feel like a new person and am ready to be preggo!!!

Blair - Can't wait to hear ER report today.....you must be soooo excited knowing you are almost there!

SD - WooHoo for getting released from your all your meds early! Yippee! That must be an amazing feeling

MamaBoo - The progesterone & estrogen wreak havoc on my digestion and give me horrible cramps which can't always tell are not some sort of menstrual cramp so I think you are just fine especially with that whopping number you just got....

Wehavehope - I am praying that AF shows her ugly head sooner than later so you can get started on your FET! I am sort of in the same boat except I am waiting to MC and it sucks waiting that out but I do hope it comes sooner than later they said it could take up to 2 weeks!

Bliss - I love your story about your neice.....sounds like a sign to me.

Tohavefun - Thank you, I do not have any thoughts right now....I am feeling very lucky that I have my DD and I just think maybe the three musketeers is all we are meant to be, but I still have not decided anything....Good luck on your ultasound! I just know you are going to have two beautiful heart beats in there waiting to grow & meet their mama.

Indigo - Sometimes you feel nothing and it is still a BFP.....I am praying for a great beta for you!

AFM - Thank you first off to all of you for all the well wishes & inquires about me....I just wish I had better news I am depressed & sad & feel let down. I can't believe I had to change my ticker to be MC # 6....just so depressing. RE is completely dumbfounded which is never a good sign.....he just doesn't know why I keep getting pregnant but can never keep them..sometimes I wish it was a BFN so I wouldn't have to deal with the Yay I am pregnant only to be told a few weeks later sorry you are not......I don't know if I have this in me any more it is this horrible cycle of excitement, pure joy, complete let down followed by depression only to start up again. I feel like I am doing everything right but it just doesn't happen for me......I have so little PMA left at this point and I am having a hard time finding the strength to go on.....the fam & I are headed to Steamboat Springs this weekend for a little get away (really just a change of scenery).....I definitely need some time to let all this sink in and see what our next move is....we have four frosties left for two more cycles.....whish I had better news for you all but I just can't keep the PMA right now.....

Katie- You don't have to keep up the PMA here...that is what we are here for! I can't imagine how difficult this is for you. I felt beaten and really down in the dumps this past time and I haven't had near the challenges you have experienced with IVF. You are an amazing woman for having stuck with this roller coaster ride for so long. Someone who can persevere like you certainly deserves another baby, its just too bad that life doesn't always work out fairly. Take time to grieve and to NOT THINK before you start thinking about what happens next. You need it. Much love to you my internet friend!

Blair- good luck...TOMORROW!!! We'll just keep cheering you right along for as long as we can. :D

FUN- Speaking of people who have been through a lot and persevered... I am so thrilled that you had that amazing and beautiful moment today. Warms my heart!


AFM- not sure if you saw my post to ghost or the other board, but I am freaking out a bit today. I am on cycle day 13 and have a full flow and cramping. Have a call scheduled with the RE tomorrow, but any advice or thoughts you can give are appreciated. I am guessing its just my estrogen levels dropping at ovulation. I know the levels get out of whack during the cycle, but this hasn't happened to me previously. So worried it will delay things...

Anyone had this before?

P.S. I don't have tubes so it can't be implantation bleeding from spontaneous pregnancy. If only that were the case! :D
