Fantastic report Bubu!! Grow embies grow!!

 

[MoBaby]

Bubu that's perfect fert report!!! Yay! I tell dh the same thing- there may just be a few sperm but they are strong ones!! Now grow embies!

 

[Jenn76]

Congrats Bubu! That's a great result. FX for you.

 

[Jenn76]

Stinas don't worry the bump will come. And you will look pregnant. Shopping with twins can be fun. Be prepare to take double the time to do anything. I get stopped in almost every aisle of the grocery store. Almost always one will throw a fit but that is improving as they age. Ultra sound pics get worse and worse as they get bigger. One time all I could get was a pic of Chris's ear. He was camera shy the whole latter part of my pregnancy. I stopped asking for pics after awhile. I cherish the earlier ones the most where you can see their whole body.

 

[Jenn76]

Mobaby can't wait to see a new bump pic. I'm sure you look beautiful.

HI Ladies

Thank you for all for thinking of me...I just can't sign on from my phone because it will not let me update anything...on BNB anyway....and all I did when I got home yesterday was sleep..so frustrating and of course my son has another virus on the computer so that's out of the question! lmaooo.....

I received my call and I have 14 growing normally!!! I'm in complete shock! The nurse did say though that I am at high risk for OHSS which scared the bejesus out of me...so I am drinking gatorade as if there was nothing else to drink on earth!

Now I just have to wait until Monday for the PGD results of each of those embryos. Then transfer is scheduled for Tuesday


BUBU ...you have a WONDERFUL REPORT!!! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! I will continue to pray for you and your hubby xoxoxoxo

 

[bubumaci]

Kathy, how wonderful! That's just perfect. So you will be doing a 6 day transfer? What are they testing with the PGD? Fingers crossed that you aren't visited by OHSS... I am sure you will be OK xx

I would love to do the embryo testing (although we usually don't have enough blasts to do it anyway), but they have to send them away for testing and then I believe it would mean that it's not a fresh transfer, or something like that.

I am so happy, that your embies are growing normally, that's fantastic.

I am so scared.... I am so used to getting bad news and not getting blasts, that I am really apprehensive of going in on Monday for the transfer, terrified of the news. That was why I actually cried after the transfer in August, it was the only time we have had such perfect blasts and I couldn't believe it.

Please send out prayers to the universe for our embryos, that they develop beautifully, so that we have great chances for a baby, please?

 

[MoBaby]

Great report Kathy!! Really hope the ohss stays away!!!

 

[GettingBroody]

Fantastic report Kathy!!

Thoughts and prayers winging their way through the universe to you both!!!

 

[Stinas]

Kathy & BUBU - AMAZING reports!!!
I wish you both all the best!!

Jenn - I know everything will take longer. Its a total life change, but I'm ready for it!!! They will get used to going to the mall, just like I did lol

Yes I will be transferring on day 6. They are testing for any abnormal embryos to give me a better chance to conceive. The last time I did this process 3 of 8 were abnormal so they said they would feel safer with me doing the testing again So since that scared me (as usual) I went ahead and paid again for the test. Piece of mind for me.

You are going to be just fine....prayers are being sent daily for you Stay positive (I know it's hard) but we will all be there for you

 

[Jenn76]

Great news Kathy! That is a great number to start with. Fx you get some nice blasts.

Bubu praying for some blasts for you too

Bubu, congrats on a great ER! I'm glad to hear so many fertilized. Are you still drinking the herbs or is that over now? Best of luck for your transfer - I'm sending you all the positive vibes I can!

Kathy, congrats to you as well - sounds like everything went great. Are you seeing any signs of OHSS? I hope you can avoid that. With the PGD will you find out gender also? I can't wait to hear about your bfp - good luck with transfer!

MrsC, how is Emma doing now? I hope she has recovered & is back to her happy self. I'm sorry you got sick, also - what a drag! I'm so glad Ava avoided it.

Mama, congrats on being full term! Can't wait to see pics!

Swepa, congrats on one of each! Do you have names picked out?

Stinas, Laurie, Angie - how are you ladies feeling?

Getting, I'm glad to hear Fia is doing well!

Lindsay, good luck with your big move!! How was your first week back at work?

Hello to everyone else! Things are going just fine here. Dawson is all healed up from his surgery & I think the repair looks amazing. Lately he's been really fussy & hasn't been sleeping well at all - it's either teething or a developmental thing. Either way it's exhausting! I go back to work January 6th - I'm dreading it already.

 

[Jenn76]

Azlissie Dawson looks amazing!! I can't even tell he had a surgery. Glad to hear he is doing well. My two went through a period where they stopped sleeping through the night again and were up every hour. Thankfully it passed in a few weeks. I hope Dawson starts sleeping better soon.

Good Morning Ladies!

So I just received the results. Of the 13 eggies, 11 were mature and 9 have fertilised. I have no idea whether that is from the fresh samples, or whether frozen sperm were used. Now I am just praying that they all feel nice and comfy in the embryscope and develop nicely, so that we have some beautiful embybabies to transfer on Monday!

Kathy Honey - how are you? I was in xxxx-loads of pain by the evening, but it has TG calmed down overnight - so I am just taking it easy today too. From experience i know that I swell up towards the evening and usually end up in pain :/ Can't wait to hear your results!

Great report Bubu!! Fx that they grow nicely!! Sorry about your DH's sample. I'm glad they were able to find a few to work with!

Thank you Az for thinking of us. Emma still isn't back to her normal self yet. She is still taking much smaller bottles than normal. 2-3 oz every 3 hours. She used to take 6oz but her little tummy just can't handle it yet. Last time she was sick was on Wednesday so I'm hoping that she is in the recovery phase. She's still very tired and just wants to lay around. Her poor feet and hand are so bruised from the needles. I'll post a picture of what they had to do to her foot to keep the IV in. (and yes I did paint her toe nails. )

Dawson looks amazing! He looks like such a happy little man. I hope you aren't going through teething right now and its just a development thing. Ever since the girls started teething they don't sleep through the night anymore. I've seriously had a handful of full night sleeps in the past 4 months! So tired!!

 

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

MrsC...I hope Emma is back to herself quickly..my heart breaks when I see them so small and not feeling well...xoxoxo

Hi Az..Yes I will be finding out the genders I'm not certain if I'm having any signs but when I walk it really feels sore..I'm just assuming that it's still going to be sore after only two days..hopefully my assumption is right and not developing anything. Dawson looks amazing

Thank you Jenn

The suspense is killing me and although I love my weekends I just really wish Monday was tomorrow I need an update! lol

 

[bubumaci]

I am looking forward to hearing your Monday's update I hope that you will be feeling better tomorrow! Today has been much better for me. I was in a lot of pain on Wednesday evening, barely able to move ... yesterday was still sore, but today has been OK. Keep resting up!! xxx

... I am totally in split minds as to whether or not to ring the lab tomorrow to hear how my embies are doing! On the one hand - I don't want to, as I usually don't. On the other, I am just terrified of hearing disappointing news when I go in for the transfer on Monday! Tomorrow I will be getting my transfer time for Monday...

MrsC - I really hope Emma feels better soon and is back to normal quickly!
AZ - Dawson is looking fantastic! Yes, I am still drinking the chinese medicine (bleurgh), haven't been quite as good about it the last day or two, but am trying to force it all down

Bubu...wouldn't your nurse give you an update when they call you regarding your time tomorrow? I'm terrified that they will give me not so good news on Monday as well....I will continue to keep you in my prayers xoxoxo..everything is going to be ok

 

[bubumaci]

No, because they don't call. I look up my time on the online portal (where I get all my results - hormones after blood tests, ER times, how many fertilized, beta results etc. ). So if I want extra information or have a question, then I have to call. .... Still haven't decided *grin*. ...

*update* so my transfer is at 4 pm on Monday ... and I didn't call ... DH did. 3 are a bit slow, but apparently 6 are doing well and developing as they should. I promptly burst into tears. xxx

 

[GettingBroody]

Fantastic news!! Grow, grow, grow!!!
