BFP Chasers...........Feel free to join....

Luv- I thought I saw the NICU info on their website. It's close enough to Hartford that I am less concerned if they didn't, unlike Windham to Hartford.

Terri- I'm so glad your Dr is pleased. One more week of meds- you can do this!

Taurus- my nausea comes and goes. Which essentially leaves me in a perpetual state of panic. I think I'm just adjusted to the constant state of nausea though because I still don't have much of an appetite. So if we're both feeling similar and our due dates are similar, I'm going to take it as a positive sign

 

[GalvanBaby]

Taurus, I worry when I don't feel anything, and that is often. I nausea if I am hungry and at night, but no where like those first nights. Some people say they know the minute the bean implants, and that would have been true here if I had been trying because I started having nausea 3 nights before I got my BFP. Now I worry when it is less or almost nonexistent. We will always find something to worry about.


Speaking of worrying, Tuesday afternoon will be my u/s, and I am already stressing on that. Lol

 

[Taurus8484]

So Book is Friday, your Tuesday and Im Friday.

They say things happen in 3's.

3 great scans coming up I think.

 

[Fezzle]

Fx for all the scans coming up!

 

[Rainshiny]

I didn't get a chance yesterday to share CONGRATS Galvan on beta #3!!! Hoorayyyy!!!!!
Our bodies know exactly what to do (pretty much, especially with lots of help sometimes...ok well it sounded good, lol)

And my first beta is Monday, and Kfs should know around the end of next week, and Nikki or Fezzle or luv or Wish are you waiting too? It will be a big next 7 days! And there's the perseid meteor shower on the 12-13 (just trying to distract us).

 

[Fezzle]

Good luck for Monday, Rainshiny!

I still have a bit to wait before anything happens for me. Unless AF shows up before then, I'm going to test on the 8th (Friday next week). That's also the day I have my GP appointment to look over all the results and see what the next step is.

 

[Taurus8484]

Ooooiiii......lots happening over the next 7 days.

Best of luck for Monday Rain....Fingers crossed xx

Fezzle - see you have a chart. Do you not temp?

 

[terripeachy]

Such exciting things going on in this thread...three bump buddies at a minimum.

My egg retrieval is projected to be around Aug 5-7. I just read a blog about how painful things are AFTER the retrieval. People are talking about not moving for days and then have weeks of bloating. I'm scared!!! hee hee. I kind of wanted my retrieval to be on the 5th, so I can stop taking meds, but there's no way I can be "sick" for 3 days, so now I'm hoping my retrieval is the 7, so I can be sick for two days and then have the weekend to try to find something appropriate to wear to work with a bloated belly. WHY ME??!! hee hee.

 

[kfs1]

Wow. Lots coming up in the next few weeks for everyone here! So exciting!

all around!

Temp jump this morning BUT I'm on progesterone so I'm a little wary that it's messing with my temps.

Bookworm/Luv - My DHs cousin is a nurse at Hartford hospital although not in maternity. Man - she has some CRAZY stories about patients though.

 

[kfs1]

Haha - Terri, we posted at the same time again. Noooooooooooooo to bloating! I'm right there with you. It's the most UNCOMFORTABLE feeling. You should ask eRose and the other ladies on your IVF board if they had issues with that. Either way, I'm excited for you! It'll be so worth it when you get that BFP!

 

[Fezzle]

I temp sometimes, but it's been so hot here that when I was temping last month it just seemed to go completely by how hot our room was and if we were sleeping under the duvet or not. So this cycle I haven't been bothering. I've been temping vaginally for awhile, but might switch back to orally, because even though it should be the opposite, they were more consistent when oral.

 

[Wish4another1]

Yes this thread is hopping!!!

Rainshiny - good luck on your Beta on Monday - I am only CD 6 today so I am waiting to O... but lucky me I have short cycles so I should be testing by the 18th...

Terri - maybe those people you read about had OHSS??? I have heard of other ladies not being down for the count with their retrievals... You have done really well so far - so I am believing you will be just fine!!

kfs- progesterone and messing with your temps...

can't wait to hear about all of the upcoming US!!!

to all...

 

[Bookwrmgal]

So much excitement going on in the next week or so! I think we're each other's lucky charms!

I stopped temping. DH is always complaining I'm like a furnace lately so I'm pretty sure I don't need to take temps lol

I do have a funny story for you gals. So I've definitely been having crazy pregnancy dreams. Last night, I dreamed DH was possessed by a demon (I have no idea where that came from). Anyhow, not only was he possessed but he was trying to torture me in my sleep. So I slapped him and yelled "F Off!". The poor guy was fully asleep, had no idea what was going on, and it took him an hour to fall back asleep. I am shaking with laughter every time I think about it but the poor guy has a long day at work today.

 

[Wish4another1]

Book that is an awesome story!!! I am LOL at my desk

 

[GalvanBaby]

LOL Bkwrm! I had a horrible dream the other night about our house being possessed by evil ghosts, and they were torturing me by making things deform in my hands. I woke up and it felt so real, I was so scared!


Today, I am cramping. It is sort of worrying me, but I know cramps are normal. I just wish they would stop. LOL

 

[terripeachy]

kfs1-The progesterone made my temps a little higher, but they didn't stay high like I thought they would, and that just made me mad. I'm excited about your high temps. I don't think it's the progesterone.

Bookwrmgal-BWWAAHHA!!! Your hubs is going to be in for an interesting 9 months. You probably scared him and then he thought YOU were possessed by demons. Too funny.

Galvan-Your dream sounds scary too...You guys are killing me.

Wish-I'm not sure because I think she only had like 14 eggs. There was one person in the comments who had 53 eggs retrieved. Of course, she was young, but that sounds like OHSS to me. 14 doesn't sound too bad. I have asked the ladies on the assisted conception board, so we'll see what they say. I don't really want to read/hear about any more horror stories unless it is my own tale to tell, though. I'll get too nervous.

Rainshiny-Good luck to you if I forget to write on Monday morning. Hope your beta comes out great, and if you get a BFP beforehand, let us know!

 

[Bookwrmgal]

He probably does think I am possessed

Terri- I don't blame you for not wanting to read any more horror stories.
Fx that you feel right as rain after the retrieval.
Galvan - when the cramps go away, you will just worry about them going away. Well.. at least that's what happened with me The joys of the 1st trimester as a "high risk" pregnancy. Always something to worry about. I do hope your cramps lessen though.

 

[Fezzle]

LOL Bookwrmgal- let this be the first of many things you can blame on pregnancy!

 

[LuvallmyH]

I feel a little late to the party! So many exciting things going on here! I'm waiting for my af to start. Due today or tomorrow, but with my cp who knows when. Then it's a long 16-21 days to O. I'm not terribly regular.

I'll be excited to read all the positive updates here!

 

[Rainshiny]

Ya'll cracking me up! That story was awesome bookworm. It's so funny you and galvan are both having similar type dreams.
Galvin- cramps are a good sign by themselves. It's digging in for the long haul and growing a placenta I think.
Kfs- I temp and prog kept it high but only moderately high- not like your jump. It can be a little like trying to read tea leaves...
Terri I forgot to list your retrieval next week! That is very exciting! You can do this you can do this! It might not be a heavenly experience, but I'm sure it won't be so bad or people wouldn't do six cycles.
I like hearing about nausea, coming and going, it a good sign! Some women don't get any too.
I think I'll test on Saturday, 8dp5dt, but I'm scared!
Keep the sticky baby dust flying all around!
