Hi ladies, I hope you don't mind me joining in.
I am now in my 2ww of my very first IVF try.
I started my medication on May 21st, and took the trigger shot on June 1st and had my egg retrieval on June 3rd.
They retrieved 12 eggs, 7 of which were mature, and all 7 fertilized.
Out of those7, 5 made it to day 3 and I had two embryos transferred on June 6th
(4 cell & 6 cell)
Hating this 2ww haha.
1dp3dt I was just little crampy
2dp3dt I had a few cramps but that was about it
3dp3dt very crampy, felt like AF was coming but that was all
4dp3dt very crampy again, but with twinges and sharp pains in my uterus and my boobs started to get sore again
5dp3dt (today) A little crampy, and have sore boobs
That's my 2ww so far.
My otd is June 18th

Welcome dandan!! Sounds like you're having some promising symptoms...June 18th will be here before you know it...well maybe not for you I suppose. Time seems to creeeeeeeeep by when you're in the 2ww. We'll keep ya busy on this thread though...it moves like crazy and it has serious BFP juju!! Best of luck to you!!

Thanks everyone!! We're on

Mells - so exciting everything is happening this week! Can't wait to hear how the baseline goes!

Sandy - I had lots of cramping too. I think that is a good sign!!

Anxiously - I don't think it can hurt to get another opinion

Turkey - how did the WTF go today?

Edamame - ooh let us know what the Hematologist has to say. Hope he has some answers for you. So good to hear that your Mom is doing better too.

Lotus - yay for DH coming home in two days!!

Hey Em...appt is at 3:30. Only 2ish here in PA. I'm so excited though!! I'll keep y'all posted for sure. Did you get a picture today???

Outside Philly...in the suburbs. Yardley, PA. I got married in Elk mt. Which is a lil north (I think!) of the poconos. Sooooo pretty there. Where in the poconos is your place! Are you guys skiers??

Thank you Turkey. I hope you're right about the BFP juju, I cant wait to test lol.

Edamame - I have no idea lol this is my first IVF although I have a big feeling that I will be an early tester haha its already driving me mad, but I know its too early yet

IF you do want to test, testing MAY show a BFP as early as 7dp3dt (which I think is tomorrow)? I got a super faint BFP at 5dp5dt, but it was much darker the next day. Of course I was testing daily from 4dp5dt onwards! I just knew not to be upset if I didn't see a BFP at least that early. So if you do fall into the early testing you are right on the cusp of the time to start testing!!!

Only 18.5 hours until my US! I'm happy but worried at the same time. I have a friend in the over 35 group that had a spontaneous pregnancy that is supposed to be several days ahead of me and she had her 7 week US today and the baby is only measuring 6 weeks 1 day. They saw a flicker of a HB though, but no measured beating. I think that that size that is normal. The baby is measuring perfectly for 6w1d, but she should be farther along Her beta's were way higher than mine and doubling in under 48 hours, unlike mine that were really low and doubling in 49-60 hours. So I am very worried about my little bean. We haven't had any monitoring for 13 days, and I literally have no idea what is going on down there. My MS is here, but that could be nerves my bbs are sore, but not nearly as sore as they were several weeks ago. I guess I'm just really worried that this isn't a viable pregnancy.

Lotus- that is SOOOOOOOO exciting!

Ali- that how I felt a ball of nerves. I'm sure all will be well. I am The same as you 6+4. Anyway easier said then done but try to relax.

You are 6+4 today? WOW! I thought you were a few days ahead of me. Your betas were so much higher than mine! My last one at 20 dpo was only 395 I know you ended up with twins but still, mine should have been higher. I guess that is why I'm so worried. Tomorrow, 11am EST. I will have my answer!

my husbands whole family is from philly...I think from overbrook and rittenhouse.. but I could totally be wrong and just know those names for some reason.. supposedly it's a nice area. I was a big skiier, haven't been in years... not as agile as i once was! Our house is like 20 min from stroudsburg... not too far from the Crossings outlets. I've been to Shawnee, Camelback, Jack Frost/Big Boulder... love them all....

 

[Sweetness_87]

Alli- I thought I was 6+5 but she measured me at 6+4. And your betas are great. Don't worry. you will se a wonderful heartbeat tom

 

[Em260]

Dandan - welcome and good luck to you!

Sandy - keeping everything crossed for you tomorrow!

Ali - good luck tomorrow! I felt the same way last night I could barely sleep and was sure something would go wrong. It's normal to worry. But don't compare yourself to others because every pregnancy and baby is different and grow at different rates. Just hang in there and you will feel so much better once you see your little bean.

Here is the picture . It's kind of hard to make out but the baby is in the top left corner of the gestational sac and the crown to rump length is marked. Can't believe the little bean is only 2.28mm right now

Wow I didn't stalk for one day and so much happened. Congrats on the twins sweet! Welcome dander!

I am trying to lay low and relax but getting super excited to start Lupron Friday finally!

 

[Edamame]

Nice pic Em!

Good luck tomorrow Ali!

So, the hematologist recommends that I take heparin as soon as I start the injections for the next round of IVF. He says the jury is still out whether it really makes a difference with implantation, but with three early miscarriages he would recommend it even if I didn't have the factor V leiden thing. Wouldn't it be nice if that made the difference!!

 

[Blue12]

Wondered if I could join here ladies... starting lupron tomorrow!!!! so so so hopeful this works!

Maybe it will Edamame! Maybe it will! And get if it can't hurt, why not?? Did he have any other helpful info??
