IVF until we all get our bfp! 2012-present *13 w/twins & 1 w/triplets!*

[almosthere]

swepa i am so sorry

honey-a bfp is a bfp congrats!!!

 

[TwoRdue]

Want my bleeding was red for two days and have had nothing since (touch wood) did you say you also have a hemantoma? I was told anymore red blood and I was to go straight back to ed. Could you ring you doc and see what they feel is best.

 

[azlissie]

Swepa, I'm so sorry - I'm sure you're devastated right now but hopefully the Hawaii trip will give you something to look forward to.

Stinas I'm very sorry about your dog

Honey, I think that sounds promising! Test again tomorrow morning and see what happens - I'm keeping my fx'd for you!

Want, I have no advice but just wanted to say I am sorry you're spotting again. Can you call tomorrow morning? But at least you had a great scan and they said everything looked on track so try to remain positive!

Not and bubu, how did the transfers go today?

To the ladies who've used Clomid for IUI before, do you have any tips to make sure my lining doesn't get too thin? That's my concern with upping my dose to 150mg. I've read about red raspberry leaf tea - anyone tried that?

Hope the ladies back East get their power back soon!

Swepa I am sooooo sorry sweetheart my goodness.....praying for you!!

I have heard of red raspberry leaf tea as well. There are some mixed opinions about it online. I tried it one cycle without clomid and it didn't work for me. I used baby aspirin for about a week but I don't know if thats what did it for me. I know baby aspirin does help so maybe look into it. My dr told me it doesn't do anything but it's been proven to help with the lining. I'm not a dr though so I can't really say.

 

[PollyJo]

Thanks so much, Mo. I feel better with that info. I was a upset when I heard the nurse's mssg on the phone...I am such a pessimist that I already was thinking that maybe they will have to cancel this cycle... that would be such a bummer! I hope and pray that is not the case

 

[PollyJo]

PRAYIN - Most of my town does not have power....our business that is in town like 5 blocks away does....go figure...lol The gas stations around here had lines or were just closed. Its nuts.
Your parents sound like me and DH. My BIL has plentyyyy of room but we decided to stay home. My in-laws went there, which shocked me. Hopefully we get power soon.

So DH went outside a few min ago to check everything out....little monsters toilet papered the neighborhood. Brats!
What a shitty day. Last Nov I had to put my dog down because he took a turn for the worst.....the smaller dog I had which grew up with the other dog went downhill after he died. Well today she just had enough and died. Very sad, but glad she is not suffering anymore. She went from a happy 16lbs overweight doggie to a 4lbs blind deaf dog. Sad. No more dogs for me....never again.

Stinas, I somehow missed your post; I am sorry about your fur baby. We lost both our kitties within a span of an year and I still miss them and don't want to have any others.. sending you

Awww Stinas...im so sorry about your dog

 

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

Well ladies has arrived in full force..... Looks like ill be taking a break... It's been over a year since diagnostic testing therefore it all needs to be repeated..... Gonna take a time out and enjoy life.... Friend is having a wedding in Hawaii in April so looks like if we can manage financially we will be off to Hawaii!!!!

Good luck ladies!!! Fingers crossed for you all!!

Ill still go for my beta Friday but I know the outcome

Thanks for all of your support!

Swepa Im so sorry my love

 

[honeycheeks]

MrsC - thank you for resassuring me that spotting is normal. I woke up a million times last night to check for AF. Fortunately no more spotting last night. I cant go earlier for a beta at my clinic as it is the holiday season where i live and their labs are closed. Beta is apparently not a medical emergency. I do have a pic, but I was not sure if I could post it here.I will post a pic if it is ok to do so on this thread

Hope your scan and appointment goes well and there is no reason to worry.

Jenn - I was just thinking that it was too late for implantation bleeding. Maybe I should do another test. But I just bought one HPT that I used last night. I dint even think that it might turn out positive and I might want to test again.

PollyJo - Even my E2 levels were rising too slow in the beginning of stims and then they just suddenly sky rocketed and I ended up with 28 eggs. I hope you have some better results at your next appointment.

want - Sorry that pregnancy comes with a lot of worries . You are in my prayers and I hope all bleeding stops soon and you can sit backa nd relx.

Swepa - I hope you have some wonderful time in hawaii without the stress of TTC.

not, bubu - how did transfer go? congratulations on being PUPO.

How is everyone on the Eas Coast doing?

 

[MrsC8776]

honey~ Many girls have posted their test pics here. If you would like to post it feel free to do so. My fingers are crossed for a strong beta when you go in. Can you buy a few cheap tests and test every day or every other day until your beta?

Want~ Sorry I missed your post. I hope the bleeding ends soon. Maybe just call the dr's office tomorrow and see what they say. You need to know everything is ok so do what ever you have to do.

 

[honeycheeks]

Thanks MrsC - I am planning to test again tomorrow with FMU, that is if I get a chance to buy more tests. And tests are not cheap where I live. I hope I can see a darker line if I test tomorrow.

Here's a pic of my test. What do you ladies make of it.

 

[Pink gerbera]

Honey that looks like a bfp to me!! Huge congrats, test again tomorrow and hopefully the second line will be even stronger!

Swepa - I'm so sorry honey

Mrs C - I hope your appointment goes well tomorrow?

Want - I'm confident everything is fine but I know it's very worrying. Try to relax and trust it is what the doc said. I'm sorry you're having to have all this worry.

Lindsay/ Jenn - how are you ladies doing?

Pink xx

 

[drsquid]

want- yay for smaller and happy bean!!

honey- *hugs*. and... pos is pos regardless of how light. and you didnt get a trigger

stinas- *hugs* my cats are both 12. only cats ive ever had.. dreading the day..

swepa- where in hawaii? you should def go. it is gorgeous there no matter where you go. and *hugs*

 

[GettingBroody]

Honey - congrats!! I can certainly see that line!! Definitely test again with fmu and maybe a pink dye test if you have one?

Want - sorry to hear you have more spotting... Was your scan an internal one? You often hear of bleeding after internals... Or, since the hematoma is still there, its could be that causing the bleeding but I think if I were you I would ring the dr just to reassure myself.

Polly - I never had my E2 levels measured but just wanted to send you some !

Not & Bubu - how did yesterday go?

Az - I've never taken clomid but hopefully someone else might have some tips for you...

MrsC - good luck tomorrow!

 

[Jenn76]

I went for my second ultrasound after 3-1/2 days of max. stimming. The e2 levels are pretty low still ~65 they say. I am not sure how many follies they saw, but the tech who did the ultra said that there were a few on the left and nothing happening on the right. This is such depressing stuff ... I guess I have to continue stimming and go back for another ultra on friday.

Honey: congrats!
Swepa:
want: glad about the scan
notop: good luck with the transfer and sticky vibes to you.

Mine were really slow as well, they had to up my meds twice. It's not about quantity. I only had four and only three were fertilized. I had two blasts on day 5. So quality is what counts.

I swear to the Lord that this pregnancy will not let me enjoy in peace... After my scan this morning I was relieved and looking forward to 2 weeks of no doctor appointments... I have still been spotting since last week after the bleeding episode and it was mostly brown... This evening though I have some red spotting... I am worried again.. I know the tech at the scan this morning said the clot was still big and might bleed but seriously right after the scan this has to happen!!! I thought reaching the second trimester would end your worries but apparently not!
Ladies that have had spotting recently, was it mostly red or old?

Sorry to hear you are spotting again, I'm sure it is just that clot shedding. But I understand how stressful this is on you.

Swepa, I'm so sorry - I'm sure you're devastated right now but hopefully the Hawaii trip will give you something to look forward to.

Stinas I'm very sorry about your dog

Honey, I think that sounds promising! Test again tomorrow morning and see what happens - I'm keeping my fx'd for you!

Sorry I never used clomid so I don't have any info but I would ask your RE. Good Luck with you cycle.

I can definitely see the positive, wait a day and try a first response one they seem to work best.

Pink xx

Hi pink! I'm doing good, have my first real OB appointment today so hoping to hear the HB's. How are you doing?

 

[GettingBroody]

Good luck today Jenn!!

 

[Pink gerbera]

Hey Jenn I'm good thanks. Are they going to use a Doppler to hear the heartbeats? How exciting! Let us know how it goes!

Xx

 

[almosthere]

clear as day positive honey, congrats again!!!

 

[Lindsay18]

Hey ladies. Just read 8 pages of posts. It's been hard to keep up on my phone.

Stinas- I'm so so sorry, love. Ill text u in a few!!

Swepa- so sorry

Honey- congratulations!! Looks positive to me!!

Want- don't stress. I have a tiny hematoma and I spot randomly. My Dr said that irritation could cause slightly larger ones to bleed. The u/s could have caused that. Don't worry (I know you still will lol).

Sorry if I missed anyone- trying to keep up.

AFM- still no power getting very cold at night. I've been spending the days at my parents house as they got their power back yesterday. Hopefully soon!!! Not sure when I'll be going back to work. Our school was devastated by the storm. Roof came off... We will see.
