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

[flagirlie7]

Ladies, help! Yesterday i felt all good and hopeful. Today (7dp3dt) i woke up and feeling somewhat crampy. It's kinda like AF cramps, but very minor, more like a pressure on uterus/bladder, somewhat constant, and this makes me sooo nervous. Can't stop thinking about...

 

[MeganScott]

sunshine, lol, I will, I promise...

I just have to get through today and tomorrow, and the WORST part: Waiting for that phone call with the results after the Beta!! I don't get it, why can't they check on the spot and put you out of your misery?

flagirlie I've been having those cramps since last night after the shots too... The RN who spoke to me yesterday, said that cramping is totally normal. Don't dwell on it (hard, don't I know it!!) but try to distract yourself... you're too early to get AF, and you're not spotting or anything, its just cramps right? Take it easy, thankfully the weekend is coming up. I hope you get your BFP on Wednesday, wouldn't that be the perfect Thanksgiving?

Cheer up hon, cramping is expected and normal.

AFM - The RN shut the door yday, and inspected that little golf ball of a knot in my left hip, and I reminded her that the RE had switched me to Vaginal progesterone on alternate days. She spoke to me quietly saying they were trying to keep me comfortable, but I was better off staying with the shots, and moving to alternate forms only after a heartbeat was detected. She moved the injection site down a bit, so that future shots avoided the painful knot in my left hip.

I did a shot last night on each side, and she told me to get DH to massage down really hard after doing the shot, really work it in, so that I don't get more of these knots in the future. We did that, and you know what, even the soreness at the injection site is so much lesser today than it used to be earlier!! I am so grateful..!!

Flagirlie, isn't it too early to get af? I had the same. This is such an exciting weekend for so many of you. Samsfan, any word? Thinking of you.

 

[sunshine1217]

Oh and Megan, my butt looks like it got a botched butt lift, lopsided.

 

[MeganScott]

Hahaha sunshine, there's an old Indian saying that during pregnancy, if its a girl your butt hangs down, and if its a boy it bulges upward...

I don't believe all that mush, but you reminded me of that though... its something I'd heard my Nana say many many years ago when she was around.

 

[Samsfan]

Ladies- I'm sorry to start the thread out with bad news.. BFN!!!!

Funny because I've been feeling tugging in my uterus... it must all be in my head.

I hope better luck to you ladies. I have to regroup and get myself together. 3 BFN is hard to swallow

 

[MeganScott]

I'm so sorry to hear that Samsfan. I was really hoping this would be the cycle for you.

 

[Samsfan]

Megan - I waited too long and too late...

 

[MeganScott]

No hon, women in mid-forties are known to get pregnant too, so it can't be too late.

I know you're hurting, and you will need some time to get through this and figure out what you want to do ahead... I just want you to be kind to yourself through this time. Its a loss, and as dark as it seems right now, it will get better. Sending you a hug and prayers. Take care.

Oh my gosh! I am so sorry.

 

[sunshine1217]

Samsfan, I am so sorry sweetie! Hang in there, we are stong women.

 

[Luciola]

Sam, I am so sorry! I know how every time failure strikes and we feel so confused and so unfair... Please do you and is a favour- please believe it will happen! I have had a very difficult time in my life, now it is better but problem is still not solved. I told my friends how i managed to go through: believe that this is just temporary and happiness will be there soon. It will happen, honey. We are sending you lot of prayers...

 

[Luciola]

Megan and Flagirl, exciting times! Thinking of you...

AFM - for the last update, Clinic said that out of 11 day 3 embryos, 8 were good. She said wait until day 5 to see how many will be frozen. They didn't tell me the quality of my Day-3 embryos saying they would only grade later... I am hoping my little embies are doing well!!

 

[MeganScott]

Thanks Luciola, I hope you have a great number of frosties!

Kzee, Good luck for tomorrow's beta! How are you hon, you've been a bit quiet...?

 

[flagirlie7]

Sorry samsfan!

Luciola, those are good numbers!

Kzee, good luck tomorrow!

Megan, all good?

I have been just feeling strange. My stomach is now heavy and tender to touch (the lower part)... I really can't make a sense out of anything.

 

[MeganScott]

flagirlie, I have some symptoms - the cramping remained intense all day, and its still coming and going, mainly in the lower back. Got Diarrhea again. Legs achy, tired/stressed feeling. Acne breakouts. Was sleeping during the day everyday, couldn't sleep today, was so restless and aggressive, but now I'm so sleepy... Its only 9pm!!

My typical AF begins with a migraine and spotting, none of those so far.

I'm not sure what to make of these symptoms either, its so confusing! I keep telling myself that I only have to get through tomorrow and half of sunday morning... hopefully I'll manage to stop stressing!!

You feel any other symptoms except for the stomach strangeness?

 

[sunshine1217]

good luck tomorrow flagirlie!! your symptoms sound great, post as soon as you find out.

I have beyond the pregnancy symptoms, I have the flu! My temperature was 101! Does anyone know if having the flu will cause a miscarriage or damage the embryo? I'm freaking out....

 

[flagirlie7]

Sunshine, thanks but I'm not due until Wednesday! Wish it was tomorrow. I am tempted to do HPT. Kzee is tomorrow!

Megan, I have been having minor headache each afternoon, for the past few days but nothing major. Peeing some more perhaps, appetite better now (and digestion too thankfully to go with it)!

 

[Hennapop]

Sunshine - you know they say pregnancy begins with a cold!

Samsfan so sorry sweetie - sending love your way!

 

[Samsfan]

Thanks everyone for your support!

Luciola- I'm praying for your embies.

Kzee- Good luck today!

I was doing some research. The new SART numbers are out. See how your clinic rates.
