"impatiently waiting and complaining" IVF November/December/end of the year bumps

[Anxiously]

Thanks, Raz, Sandy. Guess I'll test this Fri before picking DH up from the airport then...

Congrats on 7 embies, Raz!

I had ER yesterday and we got 7 eggs. Still waiting on fert report. Fingers crossed!

 

[michelle01]

Congrats Raz on seven eggs!

Yay Sept - cannot wait for your fert report!

Afam - Grow embies, grow!!!!

Missnicole - great second beta!

Anxious - I think you would be safe to test...have my FX'ed for you!

Kirs - Hang in there, I would wait to test again.

I had my et .... I am home now and just exhausted. Was up at 3:45am, got acu at 5:30, transfer was at 7:15 and then acu again at 8am. Now the rest of today to relax and do nothing!!! So I was so sure we'd put back three, then the embriologist came in and told us we had two that were 3bb and blasts. I am a little confused still with the grading. So the dr came in and mentioned putting three could cause triplets, he would do what we wanted, but did not recommend it. He said if I got pg with three he would recommend reduction. I went with his recommendation and we put the two back. He said they were great quality and right were he wanted them to be. Now the waiting begins.... My otd is 12/10 and I have to do hcg boosters.

congrats Michelle on being pupo with twins! horray!
My ET is tomorrow so I'm not far behind you but I am praying that they make it til tomorrow's transfer. It is SO nerve wracking when you only have 2!!!

Sept- horray for your 7 eggs! That's great!

missnicole- congrats on a super awesome 2nd beta!!! that is fabulous!!!

Raz- congrats on your 8 eggs!!!

Anx- good luck with your HPT! FX!!!

L4- how do they shots go? when is your first u/s?

hello and love to everyone else! xx

well, I have been running around getting ready to (hopefully) do a whole bunch of nothing after transfer tomorrow (for as many days as I can stand!). I am so SO scared that something is going to happen to my 2 embabies... I already love them so much!!! This whole thing is exhausting isnt it???
transfer is scheduled for 10 tomorrow. EEEK!!!!

 

[septbride]

Michelle, congrats on the ET! Glad you're able to put your feet up after a big morning.

Afam, that's great that you have two embabies for transfer tomorrow! Fingers super crossed!

I got our fert report -- 6 of the 7 eggs were mature and all 6 fertilized! Yay! And now we wait some more...

MissNic, great second test!

L4, hope the jabbing is OK so far.

Anx, GL with testing Fri!

xoxo to all!

 

[L4hope]

Anx good luck with testing Friday. It should be safe I would think and hopefully you get a positive!

Afam, less than 24 hours till transfer!! Cmon little darlings keep on growing!!!

Michelle, I think I commented on the other thread but not sure if I dud on this one. But congrats on a great transfer! That's wonderful your doc is so pleased with rhe blasts you transferred! Now for the waiting game..

Sept, yay for 6 embies!!!

Missnic, looks like you're well on your way. Great second beta, when is your ultrasound?

Afm, three days of stims down. As far as needles getting stuck in me I guess it's going alright! I had bloodwork today and everything looks good. They never give me numbers. All I know is they are pleased with it and my doses stay the same. No ultrasound until Friday. I'm very anxious to see how many are cookin in there.

 

[missnicole]

I haven't scheduled my ultrasound yet! They talked about getting me in early which would be next week or I will have to wait until December 13th, which would put me at 7 weeks.

I had my 3rd beta today and at 14dp5dt it was 2542. Yikes!! Doesn't that seem like a really high beta? They said at the clinic that it was great, but it seems high!

 

[Kirs_t]

Good luck for your transfer Afam! I am thinking if you and praying for your lil beanies! Keep us posted xxx

Awesome news about your eggs raz!!

Miss Nic- great beta! Could it be twins?

L4 good luck for your scan on Friday and I hope you are going ok with all the shots xxx

Keep us posted Michelle! Hope you are doing ok after transfer.

Afm- still getting positives and they are getting darker! Am 12dpo now. Was getting bfn by this stage last time- so moving in the right direction! Will test again on Friday and am praying it gets darker still!

Love to all xxx

 

[Afamilygal]

Woo!!! so much good news ladies!!!

sept- your fert report is amazing! Im so happy for you!

L4- yay to good numbers whatever they may be! cant wait to hear about your u/s on friday!!!

missnic- holy COW, me thinks you have more than one in there.. how many did you transfer?

Kirs- YEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!

 

[L4hope]

Missnic could be twins or could be a very strong singleton. I've seen it go both ways on here.

Kirs that's exciting your lines are getting darker. Hope this is going to be your bfp!!

 

[Anxiously]

Kirs - congrats!!! Now you're tempting me to POAS!

missnic - sure sounds like twins there! How was your TSH level?

michelle - welcome to the crazy 2WW! I'm confused by the grading as well. When the embryologist said that all our embryos were grade 4, DH and I just stared blankly at her. She laughed and said "don't worry, this means that they are good quality". And we went "oh! that's good to know!"

afam - Fx'd for your ET tomorrow! Will DH be there?

sept - that's 100% fertilization! are you waiting for a blast transfer?

L4 - GL with the u/s this Fri!

to all other ladies, can't wait for your updates!

AFM, I'm starting to worry as my breast tenderness seem to have reduced this morning...been poking at my boobs all morning Been having hot flashes too...

 

[Snowbunny]

Hey ladies...sorry I've been absent. I started spotting and even though I realize we are going through IVF for a reason (still unknown) part of me still hopes that i'll get prego on my own. So, I had to take a mental health break in the form of some zumba last night to break me out of my funk!

Missnic - happy to hear beta went up so high! Yikers though it seems high! Maybe there are twinnies in there.

Raz & Septbride - great ER and fertilization report!

Michelle - congrats on being pupo! Sending you stick vibes.

Afam - will be thinking about you tomorrow.

Kirs-t - Tests getting darker!!! Awesome!

Anxious - your comment re: grading of embies was so funny. Remember not to read too much into the symptoms...symptoms vary so much from woman to woman and from pregnancy to pregnancy. Just think positive and know we're all rooting for you!

L4 - glad the shots and monitoring are going well. Each day is one day closer to your bfp!

Hey to anyone I missed.

 

[missnicole]

My TSH level was good - 1.88. I can't wait for my first scan, I think it may be worst then the two week wait! It will be nice to see if there is 1 or 2 in there!

Good luck to you guys in the 2WW wait and I can't wait to hear about more positives!

 

[michelle01]

Snow - Glad you got to do some zumba; I find that any exercising really does help with your mental health!!!

Anx - Definitely don't read into symptoms or lack of; many girls get their BFP with no symptoms at all!

Afam - GOOD LUCK today; hope you get 2 great embies to transfer

 

[Kirs_t]

hi girls - How is every one going?

Snow - Zumba sound great! I love it too - but wish i had a bit more coordination

Anx - good luck for your test. Hope is a bfp for you too! Keep us posted. fx for you xxx

Afam and Michelle - how are you doing after transfer?

Sept - any updates? Hope you're doing good!

L4 - scan tomorrow yippee!!

Missnic - did you transfer 1 or 2 blasts? Here in Australia - most clinics only allow single transfer. bummer cos I would love twins!

I tested again this morning and had the darkest line so far! Feeling pretty hopeful now! cant wait for beta on Tuesday. Only 5 more sleeps! xxx

 

[missnicole]

Kirs - We transferred two, so there is a chance it is twins. I will have my scan next Thursday, but we won't be able to hear heart beats - we will only see the sacs.

Good luck with your beta on Tuesday!!

 

[Snowbunny]

Snow - Zumba sound great! I love it too - but wish i had a bit more coordination

I tested again this morning and had the darkest line so far! Feeling pretty hopeful now! cant wait for beta on Tuesday. Only 5 more sleeps! xxx

Kirs-t ... I so have no coordination, but I have a blast.

That is great news about the test. Come on beta!!!

 

[Snowbunny]

thinking about all of our ER ladies!

Ok I've caved in this morning and POAS using 2 ICs (not very proud of myself!). The control line came out nice and dark on both sticks in less than a minute, while the test line area was stark white. I must've stood there for just 2 minutes before walking out of the bathroom, and googling for success stories for those who tested negative at 10dp2dt or 12dpo. After trying to get mentally ready for FET, I went back to throw away the sticks around 30 min later.

And this is what I saw. Not getting my hopes up too much as I know it can be an evap (though the faint line looked pink to me) and most tests advise to disregard the results after 10 min. I'm going to test again tomorrow morning (or maybe this evening? ) and I will make sure to stare at the darn sticks for a full 5 min!
