[GettingBroody]

Mo - I am so so sorry hon We have 3 cats - they are a huge part of our family (along with the 2 dogs and 2 rabbits!) and I dread the thought of them getting old/sick although I know it's inevitable... I'm sure it won't help too much yet but be glad your cat had such a great long life with you and dh and that ye might the right decision for him in the end

Polly - welcome and good luck!! Sending you loads of What's your schedule?

MrsC - enjoy your break!

 

[Pink gerbera]

Mrs C - have a lovely vacation . My school is off for a week so lots of sleep and rest for me too xx

 

[GettingBroody]

Me too! Really looking forward to just doing nothing!!

 

[Lindsay18]

You're both so lucky lol! With the hurricane coming, out district will probably have to use a couple of our snow days. Hopefully the storm won't be toooooo bad, but I have a feeling it's not going to be pretty...

 

[almosthere]

I am also worried about the storm-and my students first field trip may get cancelled-I will feel horrible as they are all so excited and counting down the days!

I am jealous of all your vacation times being soon-I only have a mini thanksgiving break (2.5) days off-not bad I guess-my 2 week vacation does not start until end of December and I have a feeling I will be needing it!!!!

hope all are well!!!!!

Mobaby: Sorry to hear about your kitty.

Polly: I don't have any experience with Lupron but I did only have four eggs. I know it's stressful but things worked for me so hopefully they will for you as well. Good Luck!

MrsC: Enjoy your mini vacay.

Broody & Pink: Enjoy our week off!

Storm is heading this way too. Hoping it isn't bad or bypasses us. The last week has been beautiful. Hoping that continues for a good Halloween for the kids. Hard to believe Oct is almost over, soon there will be snow.

 

[almosthere]

oh mo-sorry to hear about kitty *HUGS*

 

[bubumaci]

Mo - I am sorry about Kitty
Mrs C - hope you have a great 3 day break

 

[PollyJo]

Thanks, Ladies. Yes I agree Lupron sucks big time. I am already having severe hot flashes on a third dose and woke up several times last night. My schedule is something I am entirely unsure, because they will let me know depending on how the follies grow. I have only about 2, one on each ovary, and my doc has put me on the highest dose of follistem (450/day, 225 morning, and eve). My starting fsh was quite high@ 19.9 and E2 was rather low at 9 ; they will have another ultrasound this Wednesday, so I will know better...keeping my fingers crossed and praying ...Your success stories have made me feel better, I was already regretting the whole idea..

 

[AndreaFlorida]

I haven't been on in a while.....hope everyones doing good...

MoBaby I am so sorry about your kitty

 

[PollyJo]

My poor kitty had to be put down today He has had a little problem with his bowels over the past 8-10 months, missing the litter box, and daily oppsy clean-ups for the DH (it was getting very bad)...we took him to the vet a couple months back and they said he had colitis... gave us some meds and him a steroid shot and some high fiber food and said if it didnt stop to come back. DH took him in the morning when I was working call. The vet said the poor kitty was sick His heart was bad as he had a severe murmur and his bowels felt very sick.. She said we could have done a biopsy and ultrasound, but he would need anesthesia and didnt think kitty could survive it. She also said he would most likely throw some sort of clot from his heart b/c of the rhythm and that would be very painful for kitty. So we made the decision :*( He was 13 years old. DH had him since he was an iddy bitty kitty.

Mo am sorry about your kitty. I still miss both our kitties, one had to be put down because she had some sort of viral infection that paralyzed it in both hind limbs, the other one, a complete dear died suddenly before we could take her to the vet..

 

[Pink gerbera]

Polly - I can't really help you with Lupron as I didn't have that protocol. But best of luck in your cycle

Andrea - that sounds ridiculous to me! How can she have had an ivf cycle and be pregnant having only had a baseline scan and 2 injections!! What about ER and ET??? No I think it's someone talking rubbish which isn't good when so many women read these forums looking for advice and hope! Try not to get worked up though, it's just someone being silly!

Pink xx

 

[honeycheeks]

Mo- Sorry about your kitty

bubu - goo luck for your transfer. Lots of baby dust to you.

Drsquid - that was a freaky dream !

I have been having dreams too. last night i dreamt im having quintuplets. Both the embies split and i had 2 pairs of identicals and also there was one more random embryo that decided to make an appearance in the u/s. It totally freaked me out. And then we had to decide on selective termination and lost more embies than we bargained for.
Then there was another more intense psychic kinda dream about feeling the pain of another spirit and it hosting itself into me.....that totally scared me and I had to wake myself out of it.

I am feeling unusually tired which I guess i because my fluid intake was too less today. But otherwise I dont have sore bbs or anything , so I'm starting to think that maybe it dint work this cycle. Im 8 days past 5 day transfer. Im not planning to test anytime soon as I dont feel pregnant at all. We named the wee ones Mac and Cheese.

 

[Stinas]

Mo - I am soooo excited you have started!!!!!!! I feel fine....nothing different really.
Sorry about your cat.....putting any pet down is hard.

Polly - Good luck!!

MrsC - Enjoy your time with DH!!!!!!

Lindsay - I am really truly hoping this storm wont be as bad as they say. Irene kicked our ass last year....I lost power for a day and my basement got destroyed. Thank god we bought a generator after that. Are you prepared?

Almost - I forget where in NJ you are from...are you prepared? lol

Jenn - I hope it does not ruin Halloween for the kids this year either. Last year we had an ice storm which was a mess here with down trees and power lines, so they "re-scheduled" Halloween.....like really? Who does that. So most of the kids did not have Halloween last year. Sad.

Honey - LOL love the names! I dont fully believe in symptoms......some people have them and some dont. Last cycle and this cycle my boobs were sore.....last cycle they were sore up until ET, now they started to be sore right before ET and still are. You just dont know. With all the meds us IVF ladies are on, you really cant read into them much. You just dont know until you test I guess.

As for me........Feel the same......night sweats have been going on last few nights....dont know if its related, but weird......andddd......my ass will never be the same......damn you PIO!
Felt like a druggie this AM....I had my nephew overnight and I had to sneak my PIO into my bathroom...doors locked and everything lol
Oh the things we do to have a baby lol

 

[almosthere]

Stinas I am from mass but still nervous although I should not be compared to you ladies in new jersey! Last year we got the aftermath of the storm in jersey and ny and I lost power for 5 days and trees were down everywhere blocking streets! I just hope my power stays on and that nothing gets wrecked!

 

[Stinas]

Almost - Ohhh for some reason I just thought you were in NJ....i lose track of who lives where.
Yeah, last years storm was a hot mess. I really hope it does not get that bad, even though they say its going to be worse. I lost power last year for a day and a half, which was not bad compared to others, but our basement got wrecked, we got a generator in time to save my furniture(since we put it all up on tables-thank you Cosco lol)....but carpet had to be torn up. Insurance gave me our max pay out, which was a bonus. Top the cake, I got AF that same morning once the power went up, so it was AF + all the pain + puking yay lol

Tired is a great sign, sounds like Mac and Cheese are snuggling in. I worried about them splitting as well, but it's only about 2% chance. Are you hoping for twins?

Butt shots suck, I can imagine it is hard sitting and sleeping. Are you planning on testing?
