Scerena- I am feeling really well. I've been having a bit of insomnia which I've never experienced in my life. Ill wake up around 3 or 4 am and can't really fall back asleep. :/ other than that the occasional nausea hits. I can't believe I'm almost 4 months

How are you???

 

[Mrs. T]

I am back to them threatening to cancel again! Folicle count went from 23 yesterday to 37 today but my estrogen only went from 3233 yesterday to 3280 today. Not as big of an increase as they hoped. They are worried it may drop and if my blood test doesn't come back satisfactory tomorrow than they will cancel. I feel like I am teetering on the edge of insanity with every U/S and B/W. I am so ready to do this. It is so frustrating.

Thats crazy with your E2 levels and your count you should be just fine.

mission-hope your ET goes amazing today xxooo

mmbelle-how are you feeling??

breaking dawn - aw thanks, I will try to creep you to follow along on your journey as well Hope this TWW flies by for you!!

scerena - how are you feeling??

bma - I have also been having a hard time sleeping, which is frustrating! I wake up a lot at night then have a hard time getting back to sleep and the queasiness doesn't help, hope you're feeling better!

mrs T--oh that is so frustrating, I hope that all is going okay!!!!


afm, our scan yesterday was amazing --- we saw and was told that there was one baby in there and we saw the heartbeat which was beautiful, then they measured by the little guy which measured the perfect size!! and had a strong heartbeat of 143 bpm after the u/s, we chatted with our fertility specialist who said that everything looked perfect so now we were going to get referred over to an OBGYN and would have another appointment around 11 weeks or so....so my hubby and I are over the moon!!!!

Congrats Starlight!

 

[Bma11]

Congrats starlight!!! Wonderful news. I don't have a solution to the sleeping problem... I guess it's natures way of preparing us.

CONGRATS!!! Another soon to be BFPs


Ok gotta ask... are you going to test early? Thats awesome you only have to wait till the 5th I say only but its an eternity!

 

[Mrs. T]

Well this is almost becoming comical but not quite. So I am again having to stim one more day and go back for another u/s and b/w tomorrow!

Friday my follicle count was low so they threatened cancellation and made me go for an u/s and b/w on Sunday. Sunday everything looked okay but they wanted me to go for one more on Monday. Monday when I went they told me my follicle count looked good but my estrogen didn't rise much so they threatened cancellation again. So I had to go for another b/w and u/s on Tuesday (today). Today they said my estrogen went up but my follicle sizes don't look as good as they did Monday. OMG!!! I am going crazy. We have to travel a long distance to our fertility clinic so my husband has had the car packed for two days and we have been sitting around waiting for the go ahead. Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

 

[scerena]

starlight I am so glad that your scan went well so happy you have a healthy little bean in there

mission congrats on being PUPO with twins got everything crossed for you

bma I'm good thanks Hun I do the same I wake up between 3 and 4 and can't get back to sleep for AGES too

mrst I hope your cycle doesn't get cancelled

 

[mission_mommy]

Thank you bma,scerena,brandy.
Brandy-I might test in a few days..may be 5 to 6 days post transfer...the wait is going to get on my nerves....am so scared to even cough...huhh!

 

[mmbelle87]

Starlight- congrats!! I am so happy for you! Hearing the heartbeat is so special huh?! I am feeling alright, really tired, tender boobs, and feel kinda queasy but it's not too bad! (I like having symptoms!) I also wake up every night around 4-5 to go pee then lie awake

Mission- YAY congrats!! My nurse told me something that made me feel a little better, she said its like Velcro in there, and if they are supposed to stick they will! hope that helps, but I know that feeling!

Mrs T- I'm sorry it's been so crazy for you! Fx'd for you!!!

Babydreamer- can't wait to hear about ER!

Scerena- now you're not the only one with a singleton! Starlight and I have joined you I just wish I was as far along as you are!!

Hello everyone else!! Glad you're doing well!

 

[1babydreamer]

Starlight- congrats!!!!
Baby dreamer- how are you..how did your retrieval go hun?

Mission, You're pupo with twins!! Yay!! Now comes the hard part, the waiting! I'm so glad it went smoothly .

Mrs.T, I hope your cycle doesn't get canceled! What a stressful thing to put you through! As if all this isn't stressful enough. Fingers crossed for you!

AFM, my retrieval went well. They got 17 again this time. I guess that's my magical number . Apparently, during the procedure, I asked my doctor how long I could still eat sushi, lol! I don't even remember talking! I felt so wiped out afterwards that when I came home I passed out for a few hours! Now I'm feeling super crampy and spotting a bit. I've got my heating pad on which helps a bit. I'm anxious to hear my fertilization report tomorrow!
My transfer is tentatively set for Sunday

 

[1babydreamer]

Congrats starlight on a wonderful scan of your little bean! How special and exciting! Hopefully I'll get to join you, mbelle scerena, bma, and August soon!!

 

[scerena]

mmbelle awww so nice to have others having singletons also as I was the only one for a while you will be as far along as me before you know it Hun- time has flown! I think after 12 weeks you relax a little more and then your bump starts forming I know though that time is probably going slow for you now though
How are you feeling???

1babydreamer 17 eggs!!! Well done you looking forward to your feet report
how funny asking about the sushi rest up with that heat pad Hun and sleep as much as you can

mission bless you the wait does seem forever I too was scared about everything and googling like a crazy woman- I wish I didn't worry so much but it's totally normal your embryo is well protected in there

 

[~Brandy~]

Baby- It's great to hear your ER went so well! Cant wait to hear the great report you will get on the fertilisation

 

[mission_mommy]

Babydreamer- hey thank you hun..am so glad your retrieval went so well...I hope all of them fertilize...few more days for you to join me in being pupo...am sorry about the cramping..hope you are having lot of gatorade.
Scerena-. I am relaxing a bit now and going to normal activities with a little caution from tomorrow..wasn't asked to rest..so I guess I can keep myself a little busy and pass time from tomorrow...hope you are doing great sweets.
Mmbelle- thanks sweetheart..every reassurance helps...I hope I can join you guys soon...
