[Mamamirfy]

Eeeek!!!! It's time! You're getting your EC today and one more sleep for Pink and she gets hers back in!!! Yippee. Soon enough it will be pregnancy tests we'll be waiting for!!! This is all so exciting, I feel like it's happening to me lol.

 

[MySillyGirls]

Mirf, you are so funny! LOL! Actually, my EC will be tomorrow. Today I am just chilling and taking it easy. NO SHOTS TODAY...YAY!

 

[pink32]

Hey girlies,
Great news silly, it's good stopping the injections. So wot time is that my time when u go in? I go in tommoro too, they shud call me soon to let me know wot time it will all happen. I'm struggling to type this as our Internet is down at wrk so I'm using mp iPhone to type dis, sorry of there's any spelling errors. Hehe.
Anyways, I'm sure ur eggies will do good too silly.
Mirf, how are u babe? Where r u at in ur cycle?

 

[MySillyGirls]

Hey, girls! My EC is at 9:30a! I will keep you posted! Pink, can't wait to hear how your transfer goes

 

[pink32]

great news silly! cant wait to hear how many you get! GOOD LUCK SILLY!

 

[Mamamirfy]

Wooohoo! It's all happening, thats great. I think I'm ovulating...my cycles have only been 26 days the last two so if I go by that...I'm ovulating today. My ticker is set for 28 days....but we'll be BD'ing all week. DH and I jsut got into a screaming argument befor ehe left for work.....not much fun but I think all this is putting a toll on our relationship plus a bunch of other things. The last thing I want to do is BD. Ahhh...what's a girl to do.

 

[MySillyGirls]

Mirf, ttc is soo hard on the relationship but that is great that you are ovulating! DH and I also bickered all the way to the clinic this a.m. because he took a route that made us late. We were a half hour late!!! I was so ticked off.

Anyway, we got 6 mature eggs. Not a high number for sure but what we expected. So, they will call us tomorrow and let us know the number that fertilized. Transfer will be either Friday or Sunday for us, God willing.

OK...I have a good one for you: DH took a last minute personal day for the ET. So, after the procedure, we stop in a western suburb of Chicago to have lunch. Sushi. DH orders a glass of wine for himself and for me (while I was in the restroom, which, having my ovaries just plucked, was not really what I wanted...lol). Anyway, lo and behold, dh's BOSS walks in for a business lunch. So, it looks just fabulous...the two of us sitting there having a glass of wine after this urgent personal day. Do you know how many restaurants are in Chicago?? Not counting at all the Chicago suburbs. Thousands and thousands. And, we run into DH's boss. Classic.

 

[MySillyGirls]

Pink, how was transfer??? I am crampy, tired and very grumpy.

 

[Mamamirfy]

First off. Oh My Word! You have got to be kidding me! That's hilarious (sorry). What are the chances? Did they say anything to eachother?

I know you say 6 isn't a great number but you only need one. This is so exciting, I can't wait to hear how they progress tomorrow.

Pinky!!! how's the transfer? Did you decide to do one or two? What's the next step? so many questions......

 

[MySillyGirls]

Mirf, I know..can you believe it? Yeah, his boss said soemthing to him...I don't remember now since I was mortified (and probably still woozy from anesthesia). I did make some stupid comment that we had just had our procedure. LOL.. WHAT A NIGHTMARE! And, the crazy thing is that we were in the Western burbs. Dh's boss is usually only downtown as they work downtown. What an unbelievalbe annoying coincidence. dh has been in a bad mood ever since then and is now replacing a doorknob. hahaa

 

[pink32]

Hi Girlies,

lol - i cant believe what happened with your dh's boss...he would be so devasted, but you gotta laugh right....

Silly - Congrats on your eggies.....they should be fine.....yeh i was crampy after the EC however i still am....The progesterone (Citrone Gel) has made me very bloated and crampy...i go to the toilet every 2 hours at night....i havent slept for longer than 2hours since i started taking the gel.....i feel terrible to be honest....not eting but feel so full all the time....something to look forward to silly...Sorry to disappoint you but it aint over yet....

Mirf - Congrats your ovulating today....i hear what ur saying about BD'ng when arguing....i remember when i knew i was ovulating and DH and i were argue, i would still do it and then roll over and continue to be mad..... gotta do what we gotta do...heheh

i'm going in for my tranfer soon...i will have it done in 2 and 1/2 hours so i'l let you know how we go.

i spoke to the scientist yesterday and my eggies had progressed to the Morula stage (stage before blastocyst) so hopefully today they "WILL BE" BLASTOCYSTS Its so stressful, because it's a day by day thing....Anyways i wll know soon enough and we will get to see them under microscope before they go in....

talk soon girls xxo

 

[MySillyGirls]

Pink, how exciting!!!! Oh, I hope I have two that make it to that stage! I am soo worried that I'll get a call tomorrow and find out only one or two are doing o.k.

They actually have me on progesterone shots starting tomorrow and also vivelle estradiol patches. With the iui i did the progesterone suppositories and they were gross and made me feel icky.

 

[pink32]

hi guys,

just got back from ET.....they transferred a blastocyst and it was ready to hatch so they said it was a good one....ok so it's in now and we will just wait to see whether it sticks......pls pls pls dear lord

no need to worry about ET it doesnt hurt at all, i didnt even feel it.....MY FS goes ok so you ready? i go yeah (expecting to feel something) but didnt feel anything.....

We got to see the little blast before it went back in and they showed us where it was starting to hatch from....

they will let me know tommorow which ones they can freeze, not sure at this stage how many there will be.

Silly your little eggies will do good! try not to worry....

 

[MySillyGirls]

Pink, YOU ARE PUPO!!! CONGRATS!! You should have lots to freeze so that is encouraging also. I will let you all know when I get a call today. They said they call sometime between late morning and 3p.

 

[Mamamirfy]

Wooohooo! One girl down, one to go. It's going to stick Pink...it has to! Whats your next step? When do you test? I'm sooo happy for you.

Silly - with that time frame they gave you of when to expect a call...I'm guessing they work with the cable company. LOL. What does PUPO mean?

You know what's weird....two days ago I had spotting...mid cycle spotting with a little cramping, I'm betting it was me ovulating but I have never had that in my life. And I've been disecting my cycles for nearly 3 years. Maybe it was a lil birdie saying "do it now, it's time, do it now". We shall see. tThe weather is gorgeous here! I'm going on a girls weekend trip to Kelowna, it's about 3.5 hours away and supposed to be 26c (80f) this weekend, I'm trying to squeeze a bit more summer out of Canada. I'm glad that my sex week fell before my trip. Fill us in Silly!!

 

[MySillyGirls]

Mirf, have an AWESOME girls weekend! It is going to be almost 80 F in chicago today but this weekend is going to be only high in the 50's. My oldest daughter turns 8 this weekend! You know, my doc had told me one time when I had midcycle spotting that it meanti I was very fertile that month. Something to do with the dip and rise of the appropriate hormones!!

I still don't have the call yet. They said they call daily before 3p. I am a nervous wreck. LOL!

 

[MySillyGirls]

AGGGHH!! IVF just called my home line...it rang once and they hung up...i saw it on caller id.

 

[MySillyGirls]

OK...ladies. Only 5 of my eggs ended up being mature and we have 4 fertilized embies. They are calling me tomorrow to tell me whether it will be a 3 day or 5 day transfer.
