Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[L4hope]

Ali hope you continue to feel ok!

Mo sorry you had another chemical but new re sounds promising and like he might have some different ideas.

Ever, So sorry you are stuck in this cruel limbo.

Edamame, fingers crossed for a darker line next time and a great beta on Monday!!

Hope all have a nice weekend!

Well, I realized I was just as depressed this morning as I would be with a BFN, so I just said F it and took a test with SMU, and after nearly two years (since my first chemical), I got a positive on an HPT!! 7dp5dt. Pretty light, and praying and hoping it will be darker tomorrow! You guys are the first to know since I didn't want to tell my mom before my DH, and he gets home in about two hours!

Yayy Edamame!! Congrats!! Fx the line keeps getting darker!!

 

[alicatt]

But can't afford any of this for quite some time so going to think it all through!! Xx

I totally understand that. Infertility is supremely expensive!

 

[alicatt]

Finished the IVIg. I feel a little funny, kind of like I drank a few mojitos while running a marathon. Although my heartrate never went up, it's been around 70 all day. My BP stayed the same and even went down a little as the day progressed until right at the end when it spiked, but not too high. It went up to 135/95 so I don't know what that is all about. I have a tiny headache, but it could be from the Lupron or the thunderstorm we're having right now. So besides feeling a little drunk, I don't have any major symptoms. YAY!

Now let's just hope it works!!!

 

[Em260]

Ever - sending you I hope you get great news at your next scan and won't have to worry about the expense of a cycle for a looong time!

Ali - glad you're not feeling too many side effects. Mojitos are my personal fav . Rest up!

 

[ashknowsbest]

Edamame - congrats on your positive pregnancy test!

ever -

Mo - so sorry you had another chemical but I am hopeful that you have some answers coming very soon

 

[FirstTry]

Wow, so much has happened in just a few hours!

Edamame: Congratulations! I hope it's a sticky bean.

Ali: it's sounds like things are going okay so far?

Ever: I'm so sorry that you are in limbo

Sekky: when do you expect your ER to be?

Afm, I'm cleared for transfer next Thursday.

 

[alicatt]

All is well here! I'm famished though!
Even after eating I could eat dinner all over again!

 

[Mells54]

Edamame, huge congrats. Praying for the line to get darker for you and DH!

Ali, enjoy the buzz

First Try, great news on transfer

Em, are you getting excited to start soon?

AFM, got my calendar today. Transfer is scheduled for June 30th! Seems so far away, but I'll be starting Lupron on May 26. And I got my meds bill today and it was only $200! Such a shock after paying $5k the last few times.

 

[Anxiously]

Yay Edamame! Huge congrats on your

Ali, glad your IVIg went well. Eat eat eat! I'm using whatever FET/hormonal therapy excuses I can come up with to eat stuff that my normally health-conscious self avoid. I've been whopping down anything and everything spicy (think tom yum and Korean kimchi ramen) since my transfer!

First, great news on the transfer!

Em, I'll be counting down to the 21st with you!

to everyone!

 

[Turkey16]

Turkey, sandy and first - how are you?

Anxiously - hope you find space!!

AFM - still not bleeding and body playing horrible tricks. Feeling sick and very sore boobs!! I'm not getting any hopes up, they told me how low my chances were!! It's just quite cruel really!!
Hey ho, xx

Hey Ever!! I'm plucking along....thinking positive and praying that Tuesday's ultrasound goes well. Thanks for thinking of me. How are you doing? When are you scheduled for another scan? I am thinking about you and hoping for the best. xoxo

 

[LotusBlossom]

Congrats, Edamame! I hope you get a great beta!! Fingers crossed!!

Sekky: when do you expect your ER to be?

Afm, I'm cleared for transfer next Thursday.

Am estimating about 12 days of Stims starting on the 11. So that puts my estimated ER as 22/23. With my IUIs I triggered on day 10 of Stims so maybe 2 more days for IVF.

for transfer date. In a few days you are gonna be PUPO

Ali - for no awful side effect. Hoping it stays that way

Mell - june 30th will be here before you know it.

Edamame - looking forward to hearing your numbers on Monday.

hello everyone

I'm so excited!! Finally getting to transfer after waiting six months!! I had the same shock when my FET meds showed up because we also paid $5K for our IVF meds. What a welcome surprise!

Em, I'll be counting down to the 21st with you!

Yay that week is going to be a big one!! Fx for you!

 

[Flowermal]

Hi ladies! Oh my so hard to keep up!

Edamame, congrats dear! Hope the lines get darker!!

Mo, so sorry about your chemical.. Hope the new RE will give your. Better results

Ever, turkey, hope you guys are doing well!

Ali, how are you?

Lotus, hope you are doing well

Big hello to the rest of the ladies!
AFM, I'm trying to just take it easy till my next cycle in Aug.. Have made some changes to my lifestyle.. Eating more healthily and exercising more.. Just hope this would improve my body's condition

 

[Edamame]

First, good luck on your transfer next week!

Ali- glad to hear it went ok! Hope you got enough to eat!

Mells and Anxiously, hope the time flies for you!

Flower, that sounds like a great plan!

Sooooo, TMI warning, having some brown spotting when I wipe. Any hope? I took another test with FMU this morning and it was still positive, but about the same color as yesterday's, which was with SMU. Was just devastated to see it after being so happy for one day. I'm on delestrogen and PIO shots, so I know I'm not supposed to be starting a period. Not cramping, although there's a little of that uncomfortable pre-AF feeling. Crap.

How many days past transfer are you at now? Could it be breakthrough bleeding from the delestrogen? I have brown spotting about 2 weeks after starting my estrogen pills. It's really light, more like light brown CM (sorry TMI). It stopped after 2 days. The nurse assured me that it's normal and I've googled Progynova (the pill I've been taking), which lists breakthrough blooding as a typical side effect too.

FX'd for you!!!

 

[ashknowsbest]

Ali - I'm happy your procedure went well! Rest up and eat anything you need

First - congratulations on your transfer on Thursday!

mells - yay for finally having a schedule June 30th does seem far but it will fly by I'm sure, especially when you start your medication.

anxiously - are you getting excited to test?! I tend to get so impatient I would be freaking out!

edamame - brown spotting can be implantation spotting so I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'll keep my FX'd for you that everything is alright

turkey - good luck for your ultrasound on Tuesday! Let us know how it goes!

sekky - I think we're going to be having ER around the same time, maybe even the same day! I should be done stiming by the 18th and then ER on the 20th!

em - yay for getting started with IVF! You've been going through IVFs so it must be nice to be able to transfer them now!

flower - I think it's good sometimes to take a break and get our bodies back to normal. We'll all still be here supporting pregnant or not when you start in August!

AFM - waiting for Monday so I can get started!

It's weird, I'm actually quite zen this cycle. My fingers are usually aching for those cheapies by 3 days past transfer, but now I have no inclination whatsoever to test until OTD. Not even going to bring any test sticks with me on my vacation. Maybe it's because of all the excitement over this Kyoto trip...lots of Zen temples for me to continue searching for my "inner peace" (thinking of Shifu in Kungfu Panda!)

 

[MoBaby]

edamame some brown spotting can be normal. dont worry just yet!
