Hi Babs: Good to hear from you! That is great you have a new plan and the short protocol, that is great news! As the FE changed your meds at all? It wont be too far away until ET! So, will you try 2 fresh embies this time? How are you feeling about it?

Yay Barbi! So happy to hear this news. I was hoping that's what you and your hubby will decide. It's time to wipe the past clean and start fresh! How exciting. Hope those injections are ok I'm definitely not looking forward to another fresh cycle either! What iu of gonal f are you on?

pisces- I'm with you on not testing early. It's too devastating to see the BFN even if it 'might be' too early to see a BFP. I'm rootin for you!!!

eveclo- any signs of impending O? I know it's still early.

CJ- How'd it go??? Hope you had an excellent ET!! When's your OTD? Mine is 4/14... soooo long to wait. Especially as I had a 6dt. Oh well. I hope it goes fast for both of us!

Barbi- That's great!!! Can't believe you're already 3-days in a fresh cycle So excited for you!!! When's your first u/s and bloods? Gosh I hope this is it for you. You deserve this happy ending!

AFM- I'm officially PUPO with the best lil embryo I've ever known. My doc said it couldn't have gone any better yesterday! I had the faintest of faint brown spotting after transfer yesterday so I'm not sure what to make of it I've also had some cramping which I'd love to take as a good sign... So now we wait and hope for good news on 4/14.

My otd is the 17th, was suppose to be the 18th but I talked them into a day early. But I do have frers ready...... I can't wait that long! Et went well , pupo with 1 5 day blasto. Laying around today just reading books and watching tv.... Now this dreaded 2ww

I haven't done any opks yet but I'm starting to get a little more CM when I wipe ( sorry tmi!) but it's getting more ovulation like! So tomorrow first blood test and then acupuncture again... I'm guessing that I will have the transfer on the 16th or 17th so by the time I will be having my transfer- you will know if your PREGNANT!!!! Or almost hehe. Was yours a 5 day? Congratulations I hope this cramping is a good sign! It is, I'm positive about this!

Awesome CJ ! Congrats on being PUPO !

CJ- When do you think you will test? I have no tests at home so I won't even be tempted! I was glad to have the ET on a Friday to have the extra weekend days off to relax after transfer. Last time I went back to work the next day and it was just too stressful!!

Eveclo- Good luck with bloods tomorrow. Hope it shows O is coming soon! Crazy to think I may be pregnant by the time you have your transfer!!

You may just be pregnant now that's an exciting thought! Just about to leave on the train for the clinic now! Lets get this party started

 

[Cjohnson13]

Idk when I will test maybe Wednesday 5dp5dt I think both times I got my positive around then even though they ended in mc. I was off this weekend too , went to the mall with hd today I'm exhausted and crampy so now it's time to go home and rest again! I stayed in bed for well over 24 hrs so I had to get out some. How are you feeling?

 

[Hatethewait85]

eveclo- I forget how much ahead time is in Australia! How were lab results?? Also- crazy that I could be pregnant right.now.! If only this was an instantaneous result kind of thing...

CJ- Wed will be here so fast! I will live vicariously through you! FX! I did NOT stay in bed for 24 hours. I think I'd go crazy! I rested all day Friday but went to the dog park around noon on Saturday and walked quite a bit. It was a beautiful day and so nice to get out side. My doc just says take it easy the rest of the day but back to usual life the next day...

AFM- I've been feeling pretty normal. I'm not sure if my head is playing tricks on me but I feel as though there is some lower abdominal cramping off and on today and I took a great 2 hour nap this afternoon! It was amazing. Oh and my bbs are definitely sore- but I can blame the PIO for that. We'll see if I can refrain from buying an HPT until this weekend...

Still waiting on results I'm guessing another blood test on Wednesday.

Was yours a 5 day ? Or 3 day?

 

[Hatethewait85]

6 day transfer actually!

 

[barbikins]

Go girls! Fingers crossed for some bfps!!!
PIO give pregnancy side effects. Cramping is totally normal too.


Yes I'm on the same protocol as before but in 300iu of Gonal. I was on 150 for my first ER. I started Orgalutron today & added another stimming drug today. Repronex.

Yes two embryo transfer. I'm hoping for a blast this time.

I'll go in for CM on Wesnesday next. I was I. sat and Sun. I could use a break!
I have 29 follies growing thus far. Too soon to know how many we are expecting for ER. This is probably our last ER so I'm crazy nervous and hope I'll get pregnant.

 

[barbikins]

HTw a 6 day transfer is optimistic! How come they waited to day six? That's rare.

 

[eveclo]

6 day transfer actually!

Wow!! How great! Is this because it was frozen at 5 days but defrosted into a 6 day? Or froze as a 6 day? Omg you could test soon!

 

[Hatethewait85]

barbi- 29 eggs already!? YIKES! And they aren't worried about OHSS?! You are an egg making machine! ER will be here before you know it!

AFM- I'm not really sure it's better to have a 6-day embryo. It just means it was a slower grower than the 5-day embryos I had so they gave it another day to catch up. I've read conflicting reports on how success compares with a 6-day vs 5-day - some studies say no difference others say 6-day have lower odds of working. Who knows?! I did spend some time yesterday reading about a lot of success stories with 6-day FETs so I know it can work. I just have to hope lil Larry is my forever baby. It is crazy to think I could test in a day or two and know but I'm too terrified to test early. I will just live in PUPO bliss for 7 more days!

I have always read great things about 6 day embryos, my doctor also says its good because if they can get to day 6 they're usually pretty darn strong!

Wow! So how many days post transfer are you now? I feel you- I like pretending I could be pregnant. I think with this FET I will just hold out testing until a day or so before OTD. I would rather postpone my heartbreak if that is the case.

Hope you are feeling ok! Any nice symptoms that could be promising?

 

[eveclo]

Another blood test tomorrow (Thursday) which will be CD 15. Hoping o will hurry up but by the sounds of it we have a little while to go now!

 

[Cjohnson13]

So I have no will power and tested 4dp5dt and in the right light at the right angle I might see a line so now at 5dp5dt I know I see a very faint line!!! I still can't be to happy yet as I ha a chemical with my fresh and last fet. But I can hope that little bob will continue to grow!!

 

[eveclo]

Cd 15 today and heading for a bt this morning... I had an almost positive opk and I think it would be positive by lunch so looks like transfer will be sooner rather than later! Yay hopefully bloods say the same
