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

[Sandy83]

Sekky, sorry to hear you aren't triggering tonight but it's better to wait a day knowing you could get more mature eggs. Thinking of you let us know what the decision form you FS is.

Ash fx'd you get 4-5 at a min xx

Turkey - I'm so sorry I didn't see your post yesterday. I just got on here really quick to post and didn't do any personals. I had a D&C at 10 weeks and it took about 6 weeks for AF to return. I wasn't cycling with a RE at the time so I have no idea how long the RE might make you wait but my reg ob/gyn said one cycle before we could try again.

Mo - wow, sounds like it was a great meeting My RE said he's seeing much higher success rates with FETs.

Ash - good luck today!! Yay can't wait to hear your update!

Ali - good luck with your beta today!

Mells - yay for getting started!

Sandy - sounds like everything is going well. ER will be here soon!

Sekky - sorry no trigger . I had that happen to me the second cycle. It's better though since you want to get as many mature as possible.

First - I'm sorry you're worried I think it's only natural to feel that way. When is your next beta?

Sorry if I missed anyone this thread is moving so fast lately!

AFM - Still can't believe I'm PUPO . I'm staying home today to rest and praying my little one is implanting

Cramping is a promising sign! I wish I could stay home the rest of the week but hopefully today will be enough.

Turkey sorry I missed your post! Sounds like you got your answers though. I hear ya about wanting to cycle in the summer being a teacher. I am too and was so excited that we were going to be able to do ivf last summer. Little did I know it would take 4transfers before it took. But that's one lesson this teaches us...you can plan all you want, but it will happen in its own time when it's meant to be. Good luck this summer!

Ash can't wait for your update!

Gotta run girls but hi to all!

UGH.. my FS office can be so pig headed!
I go in there all happy and ready to show them my digital positive and they immediately yell at me for testing early and take the wind out of my sails! I'm like you guys are nuts if you think I'm going to wait until Tuesday to get my first BETA!
Then my FS wants to talk to me about IVIg and how important it is to do 4 weeks after the last one. FINE. I'm good with that IF I'M PREGNANT! LOL.
I'm not going to spend $5K on another IVIg unless I am, that is just silly!
Well I just got a call back from my FS office and they were like.. I'm sorry, you are right that makes sense and we're adding the BETA to your bloods today, and want you to come in on Friday as well! I guess they realized I had a point! The physician assistant was really funny, she kept warning me that the beta will be low, and I said I'm fine with that, it is early, it should be low! I would be surprised if it was over 40!

So I will get the results of 2 BETAs today! The one from my regular Dr's office and the one from my FS office!!!

 

[2girls1baby]

It's so hard to keep up with all the progress!
Ash, good luck!
All the ladies with beans, I'm hoping they stick!
Everyone stimming, hoping for an abundance of mature eggs for you!
I'll post my 3rd beta results this afternoon when I get the call!

Oh wow I can't believe they yelled at you that's so ridiculous!! Good that they are doing them now but it shouldn't have been such a struggle. Fx for a strong number!!

Thanks Em! Yes I was pretty upset when I left the office, they were borderline rude and mean. I think sometimes they forget that we're going through this for the first time, and that we are scared and excited and it is all new to us! At least the Physician Assistant understands me

I'm sorry you had to endure this, Ali. My old nurse would behave like that, so I switched. But I was still afraid I would get in trouble re my early beta this cycle. I'm so happy for you that they agreed to do your beta today! Good luck!

My OTD is today, results should be in some time btw 2-7pm. (what's the emoticon for praying?)

 

[Sweetness_87]

Wow this thread has moved a lot sorry if I miss anyone

Ali-first YOU are the patient they work for YOU completely unacceptable. Being a nurse and stubborn imnpretty head strong and normallybgetvmy way . Well glad you are getting two!!!! (jealous ) I could have moved mine up but decided this cycleneverythingbisnin the Lords hand and doing things as imnasked to because I know I'm having a healthy baby this time. And if your test say preg your preg..... Just saying. Congrats and don't let anyone doubt your excitement.

Ash- I'm waiting for the report anxiously that is. Take it easy a couple days if you can!!!! Oh and I ate pineapple this time I liked it.

First- how are you doing? Also don't let Santan fill your head with bad thoughts last time he was always there. This time if I get a slight worry I think about all the good things how my preg is going to be great and me holding my babybetc and it literally takes alllll my worries away. I have been way positive this time and it's been soooooo much easier

Lotus- how are you doing as well

Turkey- sorry i must have missed your post as well. You should have just reported it.

Em- cont to relax and take it easy. I think mine implanted on day 1 or 2 as I got my first real positive at 4dp6dt ( top test in pic )

2girls- how you feeling? Any symptoms and how many dpt are you?????

Ttc- cramps are a great sign. I also had a fullness feeling or a pressure in my uterus both times I have been preg . Your on your way to a BFP

Mell's- glad your finally getting started. Time flys by until the wait that it lol.

Sekky- sorry you couldn't trigger. But they want everyone thing to be perfect ESP since its so pricey and very in depth. The wait will pay off

Sandy- nit too much longer and er will be here before you know it!!!!!!!

 

[alicatt]

I'm sure it will be perfect First! I'll send a prayer for you

 

[FirstTry]

Turkey: the time btw my D&C and my first FET was 2 months and 3 weeks. But it varies based on when AF shows up. I think my timing was about standard for my RE. My RE does 2-2.5 weeks of BCPs before starting the FET meds, but other REs might skip this step. I hope that helps.

I remember trying to figure out the same thing when I was in your shoes. Giant ! It will happen

Yesterday's BETA result: 25. Looking at this chart: https://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Single

Shows median at 11 DPO is 24, so I'm right on track!

I should have today's BETA in about 2-3 hours. that it is higher than 25. I know I can't use it to figure doubling, but I can at least hope that it is higher than 25!

 

[ttcbaby117]

Ali. That's wonderful. I

Ali. That's wonderful. I

How are you feeling?

 

[2girls1baby]

Sweetness, I'm 18 days post-transfer, and yes, I have symptoms...ones I wouldn't normally think of having. I've had the same symptoms for 8 days now, and they include sore hips (which I googled is the result of Relaxin), itchy hands, mild nausea (but nothing accupressure wristbands can't handle), faster heart rate, mottled skin, a few more veins popping up across my chest, but luckily my ravenous appetite has slowed down! oh, and I'm always sweating, and of course, the occasional pinches and twists down there! I think that about covers it. Yesterday and today, I'm feeling almost no symptoms, except faster pulse and some pinching...I really hope everything's ok. Also, I found out that one of my best friends is pregnant, too...only one day ahead of me in her pregnancy! So glad I have someone in person to share the experience with

Hey Sweetness- I am well. I've been doing a ton of yoga and eating a mostly plant-based diet, which is helping me get my body back into shape after nearly a year of not working out consistently (or eating healthy options consistently) due to surgeries, cycles, moving, happiness, and sadness... I feel pretty good now. I had a bit of a freak out last night, though. My phone is my only Internet access (hotspot) and it turned off and would not turn back on. I'm not super familiar with AZ yet, and I couldn't look up the location/phone number of an Apple Store, so thankfully, I remembered how to get to a mall where I had seen an apple store. Whew! It was a simple fix, and now I'm enjoying some retail therapy.

Congrats, Ali! That's wonderful!
