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

[Samsfan]

ArmyMomma- Congrats! My ER was Thursday. I had soreness, but I was up that night and went to work the next day. I had 4 fertilized! My ET is Sunday. When is yours?

I guess it was just the day of pain. I have no pain today only some bloating. Woohooo. Thank goodness, I was afraid it was going to be bad. lol Congrats to those who got a BFP. Embryologist just called and all 5 are fertilized.. Hope the rest of you get sticky beans!

 

[FirstTry]

L4: huge congrats!

Lotus: absolutely awesome news!

Cali & Ash: how's the TWW going? I'm 3dpFET, plan on beginning to POAS any day now I don't have any real symptoms. Boobs are extremely sore (and big!) from the PIO shots and I have been battling the onset of a UTI. Anything I feel down there, which isn't much, I assume is the UTI attempting to win!

Mells: I'm sorry for your disappointment. If you work for the USG, you have several insurance plans to choose from, right? I know it varies by region. I'm in th DC area and know their are some plans offered to govt employees here that cover 50% of IVF. Have you looked into it?

I don't have an option. Blue cross blue shield is what I have and it doesn't cover anything.

Eh, that stinks.

Mine is Monday in the later afternoon. That is awesome that you have four. I pray for a sticky bean for you. I seriously thought my pain would carry on longer but I am very grateful it didn't. I have been reading many women who say how painful it was and that it lasted longer than a week.

So are you on PIO? I have the suppositories. 20mg each twice a day. I am so excited and DH is on cloud nine. He's been walking around the house so excited as if he was a little kid waiting to go to Disney Land. LOL

Armymomma. I started the POI shots yesterday and continue till tomorrow. Then like you I have to do the suppositories. Yuck!! I cant believe tomorrow I will have 2 embies in me. How many are you transfering?

They are telling us between 2-3 embryos. Depending on quality. I know the feeling of being so excited. I can't believe it myself. I am extremely excited and I don't think I have done this much prayin for myself. I kept telling DH it's his fault I was hurting and he kept tellin the doctor "your taking the blame because we paid you a lot of money, so it's all your fault for the next nine months" LMAO

Lotus: I am so happy for you!!! How great! You must be just so excited!!

L4- Awww. How cute is that!

Sam- Congrats on your 4 embies! Hope they continue to grow for you.

First & Ash- So I'm hanging in there. I've had on and off cramping since the transfer. Last night at 3dp5dt, on my way to work, I started having some pretty significant cramping. Now, I just woke up and getting ready for work, and cramps are back. I'm pretty scared about this. Never had this before (so maybe that's promising). Anyone else with similar symptoms and get BFP?

Army- Glad you got all 5 fertilized!! Congrats!

 

[ashknowsbest]

cali - I haven't had intense cramping but on and off cramping I have definitely experienced. Sometimes worse than others. I didn't get my bfp yet or anything but there are lots of stories and women on here that have cramping and get their bfp ... there are also women who have no symptoms and go on to get their bfp I really think it just depends on the person. Try and keep positive wether you're having symptoms or not because you just never know.

 

[MoBaby]

Cali I had intense cramping at 3dpt that almost kept me up all night!! It was like pinching pulling just very uncomfortable. I think this is a good sign

 

[cali_kt]

Ash- I was just saying to a friend that it is crazy. Because some women have cramping from transfer almost all the way through 1st trimester. Some have no cramping ever. Some have on and off spotting. Some never have spotting. Nothing is reassuring, yet nothing makes you really feel quite out! Thanks for the encouragement. It's nice having you and First as my cycle buddies.

Mo- Really?! Okay, I do love these stories because it gives me encouragement. It is definitely out of the norm for me, so I'm thinking different is good?! I'm having some mild pressure tugging right now and it has been here and there.

 

[ashknowsbest]

cali - It is crazy and that's exactly why these type of sites can be dangerous sometimes. I find myself comparing myself and my cycle to other women and that is the WORST thing to do because then I start doubting if I'm pregnant based off of another person's experience. So bad but it's also good to just have the support. We just have to remember that we're all different! And it is so nice having cycle buddies, we're all pretty much going through the same emotions of did it work, is it going to work, what if it doesn't work ... etc etc. It's crazy, you're right!

Army- Glad you got all 5 fertilized!! Congrats!

Cali- I got my bfp and I had cramping on and off- still having it. I felt my implantation cramping then I'd occasionally get it at night- after an orgasm- or random times and it feels worse than my normal AF cramps. I'd say its a very good sign! Xo

With my short-lived BFP, I had cramping almost every day after ET. Plus, any tugging or pulling could be implantation. It's all good. I had cramping today, but this time I'm attributing it to the meds. Last time, I had a wooziness in the first few days post transfer. I haven't had that yet.

BabyD: what's going on with you? I've been concerned.

I had such severe cramps 3dp5dt that it woke me up. They were on and off the following day. I'm not trying to dash anyone's hopes but I had a BFN even with those symptoms. Just remember we are all different. Good luck!

 

[cali_kt]

Thank you for the reassurance!!!

 

[FirstTry]

Hello everyone :wave:

I'm only 4dpFET, but I POAS'd this morning, only because it's our wedding anniversary, and got a BFN. Oh well, woulda been a nice gift for both of us. I'll try again probably Tuesday.

 

[ashknowsbest]

First - sorry about the BFN but it's really early still

 

[BabyD225]

Aww thanks First! Happy anniversary most importantly!! Hope you and DH have a relaxing day. And remember its still early to see a bfp- so don't get discouraged! As for me- I've been told to basically wait for the heartbeat to stop- its developing so slowly that my RE and an OB radiologist we went to said that we will miscarry soon probably. I'm going back on Tuesday for another sonogram to see what's going on and if they can guess when it will happen. They said the chance of it getting stronger and better at this point is so slim so we should be prepared. Ill be 7 weeks 1 day by then- its getting longer and longer and I want to be able to mentally and physically move on if that's what's meant to be. The waiting game is killing me...going to a wedding tonight- I look bloated and can't drink and I know friends will ask if I'm pregnant. I could really use a martini right now! Hope you have a fabulous anniversary!

 

[MoBaby]

Babyd im soo sorry. There is hope still though!!!The fact baby is developing and they saw the hb.. I'm hoping everyone is wrong.

First: it's way to early!! Wait a couple of days!!

Symptoms will vary so cramping doesn't mean anything as mells pointed out these hormones screw us up!!

Ash how are you??

Thoughts and prayers going out to all of you ladies on this thread.

Thanks Whisper! Congrats on having twin girls, that is amazing! I'm hopeful that we'll get the FET done at the beginning of May! Can't wait! I still have to do the trial, since my lining failed us this last time. Then once we get the trial over with it is straight to FET!
