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

[Lindsay18]

Az- forgot to answer your question!- we have 5 snow days built into our year. Since we were off because of the hurricane all week- there went all 5 days. If we are off additional days this week, which looks like we will be, they will start taking away days from our spring break and other holidays throughout the year before they will touch the end of the year. We just never know exactly when we will have vacation taken until right before they take it... Stinks.

Mo, two, want, pink,bubu, linds, almost, lulu and all the ladies- how is everyone?

Hi doing okay; fighting this stupid viral illness/cold...ugh. But I'm glad I am sick before the transfer and not during the tww U/S thursday to check lining... then a week after that transfer!!

Hi ladies,
catching up after a while; my scan yesterday showed some 4 folies, 2 smaller and 2 about 10 mm that are growing on the left (Yay!!) but my right ovary is completely sleep. There is increase in the e2 level, and the doc says I should continue stimming so bought another extra vial of meds. Praying that they continue growing stay healthy to make some embies.

Mo- GL with lining check. Hope your cold resolves by then.

Michelle- excited for you.

Honey- feel better, and GL for the beta of Sunday. Yes, the pic your posted looked unmistakably positive!!!

BOMO- you are welcome to vent; I hope a schedule works out for your quickly.

MrsC- glad the scan went well!

Stinas- where are you? hang in there!! Lots of

How is everyone else?

jchic-sorry to here you got hit hard by the storm-no fun, no good!! glad you are okay though!

I am doing well, still no throwing up which is awesome lol but I had three horrid boughts of MS yesterday, once waking up, once at work in the afternoon (that was the worst!) then a third one driving home from work with a horrible head ache. I woke up feeling way better in comparison to yesterday-just hoping to be in 2nd tri soon as I announce then-20 more days left until my parents and sister know!!!

Wow how exciting, how are you planning on telling them?

Hey ladies- trying to keep up! Cheering for everyone over here!!! BOMO I'm so sorry to hear about your delays. That's so disappointing!!!

Stinas- I've been thinking about you!!! FX for you today. Let me know!!!

AFM- finally got power back. Like Jess said. Gas lines are hours long and they just implemented the even/odd gas days as of today. I am organizing a donation drop this weekend to help everyone down the shore who have lost everything. My friend is driving up from the shore and grabbing everything people are dropping at my house. It's the least I can do considering I didn't physically lose anything. So sad...

How is everyone doing?!

That's great that you are helping others. Sorry to hear you are losing all your break days because of that. I can imagine that will frustrate everyone.

Sorry to hear you caught that awful cold. Rest up. Not much longer!

Grow follies grow!

Jenn- thanks, we got slammed. No damage to our home and we finally got power but what a mess. Our offices just reopened Thursday and DHs office is still closed with no power. Gas lines are 3-5 hour lines, its just insanity! Its like a war zone! I will update after NT scan on Mon afternoon. How are you? Saw abt docs orders for bedrest. Hoping you can go longer comfortably and be ok but of course whats best for mom and babies it is!!!

Michelle- YAA!! So happy you are
started!

Mo, two, want, pink,bubu, linds, almost, lulu and all the ladies- how is everyone?

I couldn't imagine waiting hours to fill up. Yeah for NT scan on Monday I hope all is well. The babies change so much you'll love seeing them now they look like babies.

I'm doing good, starting to get big fast. Lol! Enlarged uterus stating to cause heartburn but it's not that bad yet. I'm picturing my stomach being up in my ribs now, however I have no clue. Going to be a fun ride..... Maybe I will welcome bed rest.

 

[bubumaci]

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 - I am so sorry ... I hope that you will be able to enjoy Hawaii!

BOMO - that really sucks that the cogs are blocked again ... is there no way they can do it this cycle?

AFM - sorry that I have been MIA since Wednesday ... we have vacation at the moment and have been at the building site (or running around organising things for the building site) and I just needed a break from computers and everything...

Our transfer on Wednesday went - hopefully - well. I was quite dispondent after the transfer, because we again only had morulas. My gut just felt so disappointed... One of them looks quite good, already starting the vacuole for becoming a blast ... and in the computer apparently they were really slow developing on days 3 and 4 and made a humungous jump on day 5 - which I guess is positive (only few cells on day 3, few more on day 4 and morula on day 5, the nurse said was really good development)... I guess we shall just see how the blood test on Tuesday goes. I am not being hopeful (was really quite crushed last month, when we had such a lovely blast) - but not being negative either. I am not symptom spotting (not really *grin*) - whenever I think I am noticing something, I promptly ignore it...

So - thank you all so much for thinking of us and I am sorry that I didn't get back on here earlier to update - but I just felt the need to withdraw a bit... to you all!!

And I really hope that everyone is OK despite the storm!

Not - how are you doing?

Honey ... I think congratulations are in order

Fx for good news at your next scan!

I know exactly how you are feeling! It does feel like my stomach is up in my ribs. After eating I know the uncomfortable feeling is coming. I've never had heartburn before so I don't know what that feels like but something has been hurting off and on. It will all be worth it.

Congrats on being PUPO!! Fx for Tuesday! Did you put 2 back?

 

[MoBaby]

bubu: Good to hear from you!! YAY for pupo!!! Sounds good with the one that was starting to develop better Cant believe your test is just on tuesday!! Thats only a few days. Everything crossed for you! Its a great sign they were still going strong when they were transferred I know its hard to be hopeful after so many BFNs, but keep your chin up! I'm rooting for you!

 

[honeycheeks]

I tested again and it turned out negative

 

[MrsC8776]

honey. Was it with a long hold? I'm so sorry you had to see a negative test.

 

[MoBaby]

honey: sooo sorry it is sooo disappointing when you have a bfp then bfn :HUGS:

 

[bubumaci]

Yes, we transferred both ...
Thank you Mo

Honey - it is very unusual to have a false positive - but a false negative is quite likely. Did you use a less sensitive test?

 

[honeycheeks]

Yes, we transferred both ...
Thank you Mo

Honey - it is very unusual to have a false positive - but a false negative is quite likely. Did you use a less sensitive test?

I used a similar test. the old test still shows positive. im afraid my hCG is falling or not increasing at a good rate. i would have expected a darker positve today. Im trying not to interpret this test in too many ways...just being emotionally ready for either news tomorrow at my beta.

 

[drsquid]

honey- *hugs*

breathing/stomach- im having trouble already. measured at 28 weeks yesterday (im 22). because of my prior fitness im going up instead of out to the sides or front. so the lungs and stomach are squished. i really only like eating spicy foods, but they heartburn is horrible. finally went to the gym today and i am really feeling the 24 lbs ive gained. forget the stomach/boobs just lugging around that much more weight is hard. everyone keeps telling me i look the same other than boobs and belly so i guess that is good but im still freaked about gaining 10 lbs in a month.

 

[notoptimistic]

Bubu - doing ok .. No symptoms yet.. Transferred two blasts that thawed very well and looked great but still notoptimistic even with my clinic having a 90% success rate with frozen blasts.

 

[bubumaci]

Oh - I think the chances for it being your BFP sound really good! I will be optimistic for you

Congrats on being PUPO! What is your OTD? Fx for you.

 

[notoptimistic]

Mrs- thanks! OTD November 12th and I don't think I'll test before.

 

[MrsC8776]

Sounds good! Fx for your bfp!

 

[Lindsay18]

Not and Bubu- so excited for you!!! Fingers crossed ladies xoxo

 

[almosthere]

not and bubu-yay for being pupo I am soooo excited for your betas!! notto-I will also be optimistic for you along with bubu!!!

Honey-I got hardly a positive after lots of them because I tried peeing on a cheapie at my moms but did not have a cup....yes embarrassing i know-as the cheapie needed a cup with a doppler-so if there is not enough urine, if the test is not as sensitive as the other, or if your urine was super super diluted you would get a false neg.....false positives are much more rare than a false neg and you got your positive so I hope you will have happy news tomorrow!
