IVF/ICSI/FET OCTOBER "4 LEAF CLOVER" CYCLE-Anyone joining me?*** UPDATES ON PAGE 1***

[mercyme]

OMG, twins!! that would be fun, maxxi. So, are you doing the progesterone suppositories? I'm doing the Crinone, and apparently spotting is super common. You are fine, I just know it. After my u/s on Monday, I had bright streaks of blood, even a little bit of tissue -- but it was just the irritation of the vagina/cervix + the Crinone.

Megg, thinking of you today -- wondering if embies will be going back today or later.

I actually stopped the capsules this past Monday because my progesterone levels were good. It's so nervewracking. I'm running to the bathroom every 5 mins. It's quieted down so I hope it stays quiet.

I totally know how you feel! I'm jealous that you got to stop the progesterone already. The standard protocol at my clinic is progesterone until 10 weeks. 2.5 weeks to go . . .

Maxxi- hope the spotting stops, gosh that is nerve racking! Like the doc said they scanned you and all was fine

Meggs- eagarly waiting for your phone to ring too!!!!

I gave up and called them. They just said I was "good to go at 1"... So, that's that... Its today. No clue how many or what quality. I guess I'll know when I get there. Must be something left to transfer though!

Hoping it goes soon, Maxxi!

Thank you. Aren't you just looking forward to all the stress of getting pregnant with ivf?

I am!

Hi Girls,
Hope you don't mind me stalking - the thread where I live is all quiet.

Maxxi, great news that your tests yesterday were reassuring & poss twins(!), how lovely (shhhh...).
for what it's worth, I think brown spotting is ok isn't it? It must be frightening, but if it's brown, it's old leftovers.

Meggie! So you might be PUPO right now? WOW, that's exciting. I'll look out for you later on November. x

Congratulations to all you other BFPers on this thread, I'm sorry I don't know you all individually. There was a nice little handful of BFP's on this thread, how lovely...

To the BFN ladies, I hope you don't have to wait much longer for good news...

 

[Megg33k]

No, I won't be until 1pm... which is a little over 2 hours away still.

Well let's hope that all you have is the regular stuff like morning sickness! You don't want what I have.

 

[mercyme]

Oh, Megg! How exciting. I'm hoping hard that your little guys stick!
Please keep us posted, PUPO lady!

Teapot, nice to have you here!

We got pictures of our blasts -- two little round things -- I wish we could tell which one stuck! Now we've got a nice little picture of an in-utero blob.

Thanks teapot. I sure hope it is. I'm feeling ok, no cramps or anything. It just needs to leave. My doc told me that for the first trimester I can't have sex because this is exactly what could happen and she doesn't want me to go through this again. This bleeding is not from sex though since I haven't had any since before the ivf. I have no idea what's causing this stuff but for now it's brown and quieting down (that rhymed).

 

[Megg33k]

I have pics of in-utero blobs too!

I'm a little drugged up on Valium! LOL But, I'm home. I had 2 put back, as the doctor said they were way too high quality to risk putting all 3. He was very nervous about the possibility of triplets if we'd done all of them. So, the 3rd will likely be frozen on Sunday.

Here they are before being put back:

And, this is them after (they're the white dots in the circles):

Congrats on being PUPO Megg!

 

[mercyme]

Hooray, Megg!

Love the pics -- those are some cute little cells there!
Actually they do look really good. How exciting.

 

[Megg33k]

My OH said they looked really good too. I don't know the difference, but I think they're beautiful! LOL

OMG Meggs congrats on being pupo with twins
thanks for sharing the pictures, that is so cool- i have never seen that before, super cool to see them inside too.

so happy for you, now the 2ww....hope it goes by quickly

 

[Megg33k]

At least its only a 12 day wait! LOL Thank you!

 

[Britt11]

okay awesome!! we will keep you entertained until then

hugs

 

[Megg33k]

I'll need it, I think! Although, I'm not really stressing at the moment. I know there's a good chance it will work but still a chance it won't... and I'm just hoping that the better outcome wins! I know there's nothing more I can do.

Funny enough, I felt like this wasn't going to happen. Even today, I felt like I'd not get to finish the process. And, tonight, it still feels very foreign. It feels like I'm watching someone else's life unfold. But, then I realize that those little embies in the pic are in my tummy and probably still dividing and getting bigger and stronger. Its very difficult to wrap my head around that... in a good way.

Hey Megg, would you believe it, he said they were all TOO GOOD to put all three back. How wonderful it must be to hear that. FX'd they stick. What a great photo too, what a thing to cherish.

 

[Megg33k]

I was SHOCKED that they were "TOO GOOD" to put them all back in. I'm trying to tell myself that if all three scared him I'd have triplets, then that means he must think I'm likely to end up with twins. I mean, you can't have triplets if you don't even get to twins, right? And, here I am knowing I'd be ecstatic with 1!!!

 

[glitterqueen]

Megg
