[crystal443]

Sarah- I can barely see the line in the top one but I can definatly see a line in the other two I've got everything crossed for you Sarah...how exciting would that be?

Lilly- you'll go through so many different emotions in your IVF journey just try to stay hopeful and we're all here for you

[LLbean]

lol I cant see much in the top one, but its a bit better in real life.

I told my mum and she said 'we wont get excited until theres a dark line' and then said she lit a candle for me in church last night, shes so sweet.
thankfully I purchased 6 boxes of 3 frer's this weekend = 18 frer!!

wow you got one more box than me!!! Now I'm jealous HAHAHAHA

Go ahead, pee away!!!!

 

[LLbean]

LL I really hope this is our month!!! what a week this will be

I hope so Sarah, I really truly deeply hope so

 

[sadie]

I see 'em! Keep peeing!

 

[crystal443]

LL-when would you start seeing a positive? Is it Wed your time? I know it might take longer but what is the absolute earliest day for you?

 

[crystal443]

Sarah- take another just for good luck

 

[LLbean]

I have no idea...going by my last time I'd say on Thursday...and it's only Monday!

My hubby got home today and started asking already "so any morning sickness yet?" HAHAHA sure buddy, over night symptoms LOL. So I showed him my sticks from this week and he still could not understand why having the HCG finally gone was a good thing "shouldn't you be seeing a line by now?" hehehe oh my poor baby

 

[crystal443]

LL- no offence but this is taking forever Men are never patient are they?

 

[sarahincanada]

my hubby thought I was crazy buying so many, he appreciated that I was saving so much....$10 for 3 instead of $17 for 2, but still didnt know why I needed so many. And when I kept asking him to look at the test he was getting annoying by the 3rd and 4th time. whats with men!! this is the first time Ive ever seen a faint 2nd line when Ive not had a trigger and he can barely even look at it. I will never understand men, but it seems we are all saying the same thing.

LL I would think wednesday to thursday would be when you may start to see a faint line, as you are 2 days behind me. Someone said to me that FETs often have slower rising HCG but I dont see why that would be. I googled it and found a doctor saying the same thing. I wonder if its because it needs time to expand from the defrost

crystal I just peed so Im going to test tonight at about 10pm, after the bachelor

 

[crystal443]

Fantastic!!! So that's 2:00 pm my time Can't wait

 

[LLbean]

well in that case I hope to see something soon and not lose hope LOL

 

[sarahincanada]

Don't lose hope yet Sarah, it is still early! Saying a prayer for you.

AFM this past Friday I had my HSG and me and DH got the news - 2 blocked tubes, IVF is only option. Part of me if glad that I was aggressive enough to get testing done this early, but in another way it is so final...no hope for us if IVF doesn't work which is hard.

You have such a great attitude, thanks for letting my mostly silent stalk your thread.

lilly this is good news in many ways....thats most probably the reason you have not been able to get pregnant and as soon as they get your egg and his sperm together Im sure it will work. when do you think you would start on ivf?

Thanks Sarah, I'm hoping to start this June. I will have to get my tubes clipped before doing IVF(fluid at the ends is harmful to implantation). So I expect we will have that done in the next couple months and then it takes a couple months after that to heal properly. The sooner the better! I will be setting up an appointment with RE in early February to go over the tests we have done and talk about "the plan" going forward. We are also going to a seminar at the clinic on Feb 9th. Tho I feel like I have gotten so much info from you gals already - I could prob teach the seminar

Really tho...just feeling so many emotions right now. Sad, excited, anxious, scared. Thanks for being there.

How are you feeling?

sorry i missed this one when trying to upload photos. I think once you get started you will feel excited to be starting something that has a great chance of you getting pregnant. you will have ups and downs, but keep thinking this will give you the best chance of anything. it is hard, even when you get a bfp you have to wait for that first scan then to get through 1st trimester. but so many people have success on here so no need to think it wont happen to you. I went to the seminar and also new everything that they told me!! cant wait till you get started

 

[sarahincanada]

well in that case I hope to see something soon and not lose hope LOL

I want this even more for you as you say it will be your last where I can still try with other frosties. also knowing its a boy makes it even more real. please please please stick lil guy

[crystal443]

[LillyLove]

I have massive hope for you LL!
He's a strong little guy, I think he is snuggling in tight.

 

[LillyLove]

Sarah- I will be watching the Bachelor with you, and waiting for more pics....hold your pee!
