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

[alicatt]

The embryolist forgot to call. ( very annoying) so I called and we have 12 embryos. All 12 were fertilized normally. So depending on their development it's either day 3 or 5. They will call me on Tuesday to let me know.

Great news! I had 11 embryos and 6 made it to day 5/6 blast! So you should have a bunch of frosties

 

[Anxiously]

Hi ladies! Thinking of you and hope everything is moving along great for everyone! I'm cheering for you with my pom pom from the sidelines

Thank Ali, I kinda feel that I should have more( Oliver Twist) if they were ICSIed but I guess DH swimmer were good and all eggs were matured. There was no reason to.

Anxious good to hear from you.

I understand, it's not an exact science. I think the more follicles you have the greater chance of not all of them being mature, or there being empty. That happened to me on my first IVF. Had 30 follicles, but only got 11 mature or something like that. You still have a great number of fertilized embryos! Can't wait to hear how they do!

Sekky- it's so hard to understand why some make it some dont even with icsi. It's very frusterating. But I was blessed to have at least two frosties.

Mells- yay for starting shots and boo for the headaches. Sorry that happens.

First- how are you doing?

Ali- how are you doing as well?

Ash- hope everything is going well

Anxiously- thanks

Sorry if I missed anyone. I Only work sat and sun so hard to get caught up on those days

AFM- just waiting for tues for my second beta. Not really and symptoms I don't think. My bbs hurt at night when I wake up the get progressively better til it's gone (that norm for pregnancy) also that's pretty much it nothing else. Feel like I have a lack of symptoms

 

[alicatt]

Count yourself lucky to not have many symptoms!
I do nausea, cramping, insomnia, and now sore bbs! UGH!

I found this chart.. made me feel better..

Sekky: excellent report! I had 6 fertilize normally and ended up with 4 blasts.

Sweetness: yes, the waiting is painful, but you're in good shape.

AFM, I think I had my first real bout of ms last night, at 5 weeks 0 days. I was eating a cookie and milk and then had to run to the bathroom. I only dry heaved (and cried bc I felt shitty), but it seemed like ms. DH was concerned but happy

If all is good at my June 4 us, I'll put up a ticker. Oh, the waiting

Sekky - 12 embryos is great!!

Ali - I spoke with one of the nurses at my clinic today and she recommended Benadryl too. I'm going to take it early tonight in case I wake up early again I'll at least have logged some hours.

First - oh no that sounds awful Ugh the waiting is so hard. I need it to be Thursday already!

Sweetness - I think lack of symptoms is pretty common this early. Fx for you on Tuesday!

sekky 12 embryos is GREAT!!! I had 12 last cycle as well w/ 6 blasts

Hey Anxiously!! How are you doing? Do you have a plan for moving forward??

You can do it First!! It's all worth it remember. I was BLESSED to not have a lick of morning sickness with my daughter, and when I expressed concern to my RE he said something so sweet like "do you think you may just be getting a break considering all you've gone thru to get here??" It made me feel better, but part of me craved a lil morning sickness just to assure me things were happening, ya know? Luckily it all worked out beautifully, but I always look at ms as a good sign! Several friends swore by a constant stream of saltines...first thing on the morn, right before bed etc...like a few every 15 minutes or so, just to have a lil something in your belly...can't hurt to try!! Hang in there!!!

Hi ladies Ive been on here a few times over the last few weeks. Im now on my 2ww from a fet I had 2 excellent 2 day embryos transferred on the 24th. In the end they had to thaw 6 but Ive still got 14 frozen (Fingers crossed I don't need them just yet).


Anyway I know its way to early to have any pg signs, so I know what Im feeling is the awful progesterone. Anyone else had cramps and feeling sick the day after ET? I was awake most of the night feeling sick and this morning feel really light headed.

Any info would but great, I never had a transfer because I ended up getting ohss after EC so Im clueless to what I should and shouldn't be feeling. Thanks xx

How are you feeling today Tinkerbell?? I had no complications after my first transfer...I'd say if you were still feeling rotten, call your doc. Hopefully the cramps and general lousy feelings have passed..

This sounds pretty darn good to me Sekky!! Congrats. Can't wait to hear what the plan is for transfer!! Hope you are feeling great!!

Hey Sweetness!! I wouldn't get too caught up in the lack of symptoms...if I remember correctly you had one heck of a first beta...and I'm sure it's gonna be great news with the second on Tuesday!! Looking forward to hearing!!

 

[Turkey16]

Hope I got everybody!! Happy Memorial Day!! xoxo

Baby D...congrats on being PUPO! It's GREAT to see you back here. I thought about you often over the last 2 months as I experienced an all-too-similar situation as you had when I first joined the thread, and the way you handled yourself gave me a lot of strength and inspiration. Thanks for that!! Seeing you here and PUPO has me super excited for you, and hopeful that I'll be there soon too!!

Flowermal!! So happy to hear from you..glad the new job is going well, and it sounds like you're gonna be in great shape when it comes time to give it another whirl...any idea when that'll be??

Sandy...how are you feeling?? ER still scheduled for Wednesday?

ttcbaby-how are you feeling? Any more symptoms?? I'm pretty sure you're planning to POAS...have you gone there yet???

MoBaby-when is your FET going down?? I've been following your blog, but I'm just so inundated with all this info, I can't quite remember!

Mells-have the headaches set in? You've started the Lupron right??
What other meds will you have to take?? Not sure exactly how things differ (if they even do) when using donor eggs. You guys have GOT to be excited!!! I am definitely feeling a BFP for you. How's DH doing? You making out ok on your own??

Ash...how are you feeling miss?? Did you tell us already how many frosties you ended up with?? I am PRAYING that this is your BFP cycle, but it's always nice to have frosties!

Alicatt...how are you feeling?? What's next beta/ultrasound-wise?? Symptoms still kicking??

Lotus..hope your dogs are behaving and that you're finding some places around AZ to wear all your cute new clothes! Still saving for the next cycle right?? Did you give up on finding work somewhere w/ IVF coverage?? I remember thinking that was a good idea! When does DH come home??

Edamame..how are you doing these days?? What's your plan moving forward??

Ever...hope you are feeling good! I'm hoping that we may be cycle buddies one of these days!!

Em...Thursday's your OTD, right? I can't keep things straight, have you POAS yet?? When will that excitement begin??

2girls...Ultrasound tomorrow!!! How psyched are you?? Are you feeling good??

L4hope & Wannabe...hope you're both feeling great!! I love how you guys are always checking in and offering words of wisdom!

Ok, I can't hold it in any longer! I'm pregnant!! I started testing on Friday at 3dp5dt (yes, POAS addict) and of course it was a BFN. 4dp5dt I got a squinter with FMU on the FRER. That night the line popped up pink and visible right away and the line has been getting darker ever since.

Yesterday was 5dp5dt and I pulled out a digital that I've been saving forever and it was positive!

I'm so excited but very cautious too as I've had a couple of first trimester losses. Please stick baby!!!

The test from the morning was a little wonky because the lines are off center but at least it showed a darker line.
