Aw Jenn, they're after getting so big!!! They're gorgeous!

Anmlz - great attitude!! Next cycle will be The One!!!

Bubu - I'll send you a link to my FB, will u invite me?

 

[bubumaci]

Hey Getting - I wasn't able to invite you with the link. e-Mail Address would have worked (worked with Mo) - so I have sent you a friend request, then I can add you from my friends

Jenn! Adorable

 

[Stinas]

Mo - I'm super excited for you!! Love seeing those scans!! I don't say anything on fb either.....we have that private page ...so only we see. I made sure from my cousins page lol

Bubu - I can't wait until your next beta!!!

Anmlz - I'm sorry !! This is a hard process... Some of us need a trial run before we get our bfp! Don't give up!!

Michelle - what a cutie!! Congrats!!


Question for you FET ladies....I think I may have taken four estrogen pills instead of three today. Does it matter? I have been distracted then forget if I took it in the am.
Just curious. Might go buy those weekly pill boxes.

 

[bubumaci]

Thanks Stinas - I am not sure how much I am looking forward to it - on the one hand, I still have a very good feeling (like I have had since the day of transfer) - but am still a bit worried because they didn't fully confirm the pregnancy yesterday. My feeling is that the mini has burrowed in.... There was one girl there, transfer before last, and she said that at the first blood test she had 12, but that it went away by the second it had gone away I am scared of that happening, even though I so strongly believe that Mama and Granny are looking out for us.

Still temping and it's making me nervous, that my temperature has been going down the past couple of days - not sure what that is about. But I will continue to be positive and believe that finally, we are being blessed as well.

An ... sad but true, but several of us need more than one try - this was my fourth ICSI and seventh transfer!

Jenn- Super cute photo!!

Thanks for the encouragement ladies! Things can only get better! Have a great weekend!

 

[Jenn76]

Bubu: You totally deserve this!! I know your mom and granny are looking out for you. I used to think it was so great that you get your beta so early but the having to wait till next beta to confirm must suck. I had to wait 16 days but by that time there was no questioning the result. You will be in my prayers. I know Tuesday will bring you your official BFP!!!

 

[never2late70]

Bubu: I pray for you morning and evening

 

[Stinas]

bubu - you deserve this. Just stay positive that's all we can do after transfer. You got one step ahead with that beta number. That's always a good thing.
That's what I was thinking when I had the miscarriage....at least we know I can get preg ....one step ahead is better than backwards even if you didn't make it all the way.

 

[bubumaci]

Jenn - they have different reasons for doing it so early. Firstly (probably the main reason) is to make sure that it's not an ectopic pregnancy. Secondly, I think, to see whether or not a chemical pregnancy occurs - i.e. that you can get pregnant (as Stinas says). So far, I have always had a definitive negative on 11dpo (6dp5dt). I guess, when a bean sticks, most women already have a higher HCG value at 11 dpo... My friend told me that they only consider the pregnancy intact once you have had the first scan... So not even necessarily after the second blood test. But if it is positive (and has more than doubled on Tuesday), then I will be considering it a BFP

Two nights in a row I have woken up with really sore boobs. During the day, the sensitivity at the sides goes down, so I get a bit nervous. The light pressure in my uterus is still there (which I find comforting - even when I have a light cramp, I prefer that to feeling absolutely nothing *go figure*). They are still quite sore (sort of achy), especially to contact - but I always get that before my periods and my progesterone is especially high this time round (at 11 dpo it has always been 20 and yesterday it was 50).

Anyway, two more sleeps and I guess we shall know.
I always thought that the temperature should stay quite high throughout pregnancy? The last two days mine has gone down quite a bit. But I am thinking it might also be due to the fact, that the temperatures outside have gone down as well and I haven't been quite as hot during the night, as in the past couple of weeks. I am still quite a bit above the coverline, and I guess that is all that counts?

Thank you all for being so supportive and for praying You are a wonderful group of women!!

I wonder whether we will perhaps one day be able to organise a get-together. I can really imagine remaining in touch and friends for life!

Breaking cover to say SO EXCITED FOR YOU, BUBU!!!!! We'll all keep praying for you until you've got baby safely in your arms, but you're one step closer!

Hey Chellesama, how are things with you?!

Stinas - no idea about the tablets but I can't see it making a huge difference... I was on 3 tablets a day at one point too and it was so confusing!

 

[chellesama]

Hi, Getting!

Things are crazy with me! My first surro-baby is starting kindergarten and crying because it's going to be too hard (her words - I reassured her that they have recess TWICE during the day, so she'll get a break!) and the second one is rolling over and giggling according to her daddies.

For me, I just moved to Hawaii to start school in September - at 35. I've been here three days and got lost on the buses five times! I'll get it figured out soon, I'm sure.

And thinking about surrogacy again.

I've been lurking here ever since my own pregnancy, quietly rooting on everyone. I'm still sure that someday, this thread will reach 100% somehow! So, ladies, if you ever had that creepy feeling that someone is watching you post, it's me! (Don't bother with the restraining orders - I'm going to lurk and cheer you all on anyway!) I've been terribly excited for all the BFPs, and so sad for those who have to try again. It's such a rough road, but at least we've got the support here that we wouldn't have had even 10 years ago.
