Want - I am so sorry about your scare. Hope you are feeling better, keep your feet up and restI would call your FS about how long the bleeding will last; or at least to get some reassurance.
Jenn - Thanks; it seems like things are still a go with my next cycle. I am still in pain, but I start lupron next week, so that should calm things down in there
Thanks az! They didn't say what kind, but just saw it along with fluid under/near my uterus. I am still in pain today, so I don't know if they misdiagnosed me or what. I cannot even bend my knee into my chest without being in horrible pain. As for your IUI; do you take the OPK to see when you ovulate? If you really ovulate later then 36 hours then you can let them know? Hoping everything works out for you
Happy 12 weeks Lindsay!!
Thanks Lulu; I hope that this is all it is and the pain goes away soon. Today is CD15 for me out of 28, so I assume the pain should start to subside soon. It is still pretty painful todayAnd what a great scan; congrats on your twins, if I haven't said it already
How are you feeling? What a great pic of your little beans; so amazing.
Prayin - I am sorry for what you are going through
Thanks Stinas! Good luck with the PIO shots; I am sure everything will be just fine
Pink - Congrats on a great scan and to see them wiggling around; how awesome!
GettingBroody - Hi! How are you doing and feeling?
Mobaby - Hmmmm, a massage sounds greatI have my acu consult Monday and your right, it is expensive and my insurance does not cover it, but I am going to try a few sessions for this cycle. I have never done it beore. But a massage before transfer, what a great idea too
Hi bubuHope everything goes great with your upcoming FET!
Jess - how are you? The cyst, well not sure what is going on, but I still in pain! Just glad it is Friday.
Almost - How are you feeling?
Hope everyone else is doing great!!
I am still in pain today, so working from home again. I wonder if the ER misdiagnosed me? Yea, I have a small cyst, but seriously a 2cm cyst should not be causing me this much pain. If I try to pull my right knee towards my chest, the pain is unbearable! It hurts with anything I do; sit, stand, lay down, walk, etc... I don't know what to do. I keep taking pain meds and using the heating pad, but I have to go back to work Monday. I am at a lossCould this possibly be something else. They did a ct scan and ruled out my appendix and other organs. But maybe I tore something in that area that a ct scan and x-rays didn't pick up?
Bubu - The pain started Tuesday night in my right lower back area; near the SI joint. I went to the walk-in clinic Wednesday and they did x-rays and said my back was fine. Then I started having some pain in my ab area, lower right. The ER tested to make sure it wasn't my appendix. It hurts when I push to go to the bathroom too. If I stay in any one position too long, I am so stiff and it really hurts. It hurts with any movement in my hip area on the right side; if I walk, move my knee towards my chest, etc... They didn't do an MRI, but I wonder if I tore something? I changed my workout routine 3 weeks ago and have been doing more high impact stuff, like jump rope, jumping jacks, jump squats, etc... So right now I don't know what to do or even what dr to call.
MrsC - Wishful thinking lol. They are just bad after a few days. Once its all bruised up and you have only a certain amount of space you can do it in. Basically you are sticking the needle in a bruise, so it hurts for a min, but just more dreadful than anything lol But like you said, it will be worth it.
I was going to go out for drinks tonight, but decided not do...plus DH kind of ruined it for me. I guess hes right...I dk what it would be like drinking with all these pills. OH well. lol
Wow this thread goes soo fast!
Want - I'm so sorry you had a scare but I'm so relieved your little bean is ok
Lulu - thanks. Not sleeping on my tummy is definitely something I'm getting used to!!! But it's so not as comfy!!
Mo - I'm with what some other girls have said if you're happy with twins then I'd be putting 2 back. They tried to talk me into 1 ET but I pushed for 2 and I'm so glad I did
AFM after the drama on here the last few days, which like Lindsay I've tried to stay out of. I didn't feel like I wanted to write about my 12 week scan yesterday. But we're in this together so.... I had my 12 week scan yesterday and it went really well. Both babies are measuring perfectly and they were both very wriggly! It was amazing!!
Pink xx
Puh ... another 5 pages overnight and I have been trying to remember everyone I want to respond to and find myself suffering from severe amnesia
Angie : I am soooo happy that you guys are giving it another go!!!
WantI am sorry about your scare Sweetie!
Pink - that's wonderful that your scan was so positive two days ago
I think I will try with the pineapple core + walnuts (sounds like such a funny idea - but hey, we jab ourselves silly for 10 days and push progesterone inside us ... why not eat some yummy fruit and nuts?!)![]()
I guess we just have to buy a pineapple and cut out the core?
Also - sorry for missing the other posts - I was trying to remember who to answer to and forgot..
Ah.... unicornate uterus (desperate apologies that I can't remember your name right now - my brain is seriously striking on me!!) - that was my first thought, whether it might not be too risky / difficult for you to carry twins... I am sorry that it was so much information to process, but I am glad that you trust your physician so much - he probably knows what he is talking about.
Also .. for the women in the same boat as me, who have not had implantation yet : it is not unusual!! Think of all the cycles entirely healthy couples often have to go through before they get a pregnancy. OK so we have the advantage that we already have the security of fertilisation - but : nature is a tough cookie and selection of the fittest (good old Darwin) starts right at the beginning. If there is anything wrong with how the cells are developing - the body won't accept it... and even if fertilisation has occurred - there is no guarantee that a) it will continue to develop, b) it will implant etc. etc. etc.
Unfortunately, that forces us to have to have huge amounts of patience, will power, ... money (hmpf) and so on and so forth. We are intervening where nature won't allow us to get pregnant with our partners (or alone, whichever route we are taking) naturally... and then we get to the point, where we can't outsteer nature and have to let her take her course. And of course we get impatient, because - hey - we have overcome the hurdles we thought were in our paths... Mother nature is yet another "hurdle" and one we can't influence...
I firmly believe we will all have our successes here - some more quickly than others and in the meantime, we can just be there for each other and be patient...
My goodness, I sound like I am on my soapbox - time to get down and trundle off to work...
Wishing you all a wonderful Friday out there:wave:
Prayin and Stinas ~ I hear you guys on the PIO.. I hate those things! Like you said Stinas, it's hard to find a spot that is not bruised or doesn't hurt to poke the next injection in. I am still taking them but I've asked my RE to let me alternate suppositories and injections and he said that is fine.. Yaaay!
MrsC ~ I'm sure the nursery is going to be super cute. Make sure you get before and after pics.
Here are my little beans..

Hey Jenn!
Thinking about you too! How are you feeling??? Aww lemon babies LOL! I always think its funny how it goes from a peach to a lemon - thought peaches were bigger LOL!
Jenn- are you finding out genders??
Jenn, Jess - you gals are too sweet... I always just think I am being sensible and down to earth... maybe my calling is to be a motivational speaker
... that makes me laugh too! Whenever I have gone to presentations for sales execs (I am in finance - revenue recognition for software revenue), I have always thought "do they really believe this xxxx??? I mean - honestly, who buys it?"
![]()
It is always so exaggerated and meant to be motivational - and I just can't take it seriously
I have my u/s on Monday (so CD 10) to see how the follies are doing and to have a blood test (testing the hormones as usual - and also all the immunology stuff we chatted about last week) ... and then we will just see when I OV, so they can thaw our little babycicles... if my cycles are anything like the previous ones, I will probably be OV-ing around day 14/15, so transfer would be the week after... *need to get a crystal ball*
HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE![]()
