IVF/FET in Aug'13' - Aug'14' buddies wanted!!*13 BFP's!!**Updates on first page**

[Chickadeedee]

Disney - I think I will officially test tomorrow that way I can get the darn pregnancy test out of my house - because if I don't, then I'll be obsessive over it!!!

I'm so cautious too - I'm looking at all the other betas and some are SUPER high and some are lower than mine... Not sure how I'm feeling about that. I'm thinking my bean was a late implanter, to be honest. Here's to some doubling numbers on Sunday!

Disney - can't wait to hear your beta!!! we can be BUMP BUDDIES!!!!

 

[Chickadeedee]

Aww am the same I tested today 8dpo 6dp2dt I know it's too early but feel sad !
I can't resist but too test though !
My otd is 27th icy which puts me at 18dpo no way I would wait that long !!! X

This isn't just lip service - TRUST ME - it's still WAY early for you!!!

Look at this website!!! I'm not sure you even have hCG in your system yet!!!

 

[Hennapop]

OMG - I caved and took a test when I got home from work. I knew it was risky given that I'm only 6dp5dt and I was not using FMU. I just got my first ever on two tests (first an IC and then on a First Response)!!! We are being cautiously excited until it's confirmed by my beta.

YEAH!!!! WTG Disney Yay yay yay!!!!!

Good luck tomorrow Chickadeedee!!!

So I just got the call from the nurse and I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!!
First beta was 85.2 and they like it between 50-100. Second beta scheduled for Sunday!!

Please please please stick little beaner!!!

Chickadee --- YEEEEEESSSSSS!!! How exciting!

That would be awesome!! I'm praying that our little beans stick!!

I'm still waiting for the doctor's office to call with my beta #. I went for acupuncture today, and the lady said that my pulse is giving off a strong pregnant vibe.

[Goldfish]

Disney and chickadee congratulations on your BFPs!!! you guys must be so happy!

Unfortunately BFN again for me this morning (on a FRER this time). it was OTD so I'm out. I've cried so much already and had a really long day at work so I'm off to bed. Hope hanawana, samsfan, Bettybee and all the other TWW and stim ladies are doing ok!

 

[Chickadeedee]

Goldfish - I'm sorry will they do a blood test just in case?

Goldfish, I'm so sorry.

My beta came back at 87. My progesterone level came back low (3.6), so I've been scrambling and working with my doctor's office to make sure that I can get my hands on PIO to start tonight. My husband is getting it from the pharmacy on his way home from work.

Anyone have any tips to share on the PIO injections?

 

[Chickadeedee]

Disney that's terrific!!! Almost exactly the same as mine!
I've heard POI kinda hurts....and to use ice before and heat after.
They didn't check mine... Hmmmmmm...

 

[Samsfan]

OMG Chickadee!!!!!! That's awesome news!!! you give me hope!

[Lucie73821]

Congrats chickadeedee!

Disney, my best tip for pio is to use a heating pad for a few mins on the injection site after or make sure you walk around for a bit after the shot so the oil doesn't pool in one spot. Also, have dh massage the area for a min or two after giving the injection. All these help prevent the oil from sticking in one spot and sore spots forming.

 

[Samsfan]

Disneyfan- Ice before hand! Have the shot across over your bum from the top of your crack... then massage and heat after.

Goldfish- So sorry.

AFM- I can't believe Monday is around the corner. I don't feel pregnant... Can't wait to get this over with.

 

[adroplet]

Congratulations Disney and Chickadee!!!

 

[Disneyfan88]

Thanks for the tips, ladies!

Samsfan, if it helps, I still don't feel pregnant (not even sore boobs or anything). I do feel some twinges, but i don't know if it's psychological or not. Don't lose hope!! I'm still praying for your BFP!

Yes -- our beta levels are nearly the same!

My doctor said that most clinics don't check progesterone, but she likes to check for her patients just because. She told me to continue with the crinone (still twice a day!) and then continue the PIO shots at night until the first ultrasound. She said that there is no such thing as too much progesterone. She did say that it's normal to get a lower progesterone reading if you do the progesterone vaginally just because it's absorbed differently. In other words, she expects it to be lower for the people not doing PIO injections.

 

[Samsfan]

Thanks Disneyfan!!!!!! I feel sore boobs, but its because of the progesterone.. they have been sore since I started taking it!

Thanks for the tips, ladies!

[Chickadeedee]

My only really noticeable symptom was the fact that I was napping every afternoon - super tired. I had twinges and cramps (still do!) but didn't put a lot of stock into them. Also, my boobs hurt really bad initially, now, not as much.
So don't read too much into symptom spotting!!

 

[Prayerful]

So sorry Goldfish!

Disney - I have to do both the PIO injections and the vaginal suppositories twice a day too. For the PIO, I agree with everyone else... ice before and massage plus heat afterward. I honestly haven't been using the heat though because I freaked myself out after using heat on my abdomen after transfer. I just didn't want to take any more chances!

Betty - Hang in there! It is definitely too early for you to test.

Samsfan - I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!
