[babydrms]

Babydrms - when is your next scan? My bloating was very bad around days 6-9 of stims. Started to get better after that. Hang in there.

My next scan is tomorrow. I can barely even eat or drink right now, just feel so FULL! I thought I gained a lot of weight but it is actually only a pound or so . I am day 11 right now. I hope it doesn't get any worse - so uncomfortable!

 

[vesper21]

Congrats on your BFP hun Xxxxx Sorry to hear your in hospital. Hope you feel better soon.

I feel like its all over. My boobs have stopped hurting so bad and the cramping is going away. I feel a dull pressure like a period on the way. I am feeling so down today. Yesterday I had a rwally horrible stressful and tearful day too.

Hope everyone else is doing ok xx

Kristy, don't give up hope! Remember, it only takes one

Wanted to let you know I'm in hospital for OHSS but hanging in there

Easier to bear now though since I got a positive beta of 99.6 at 13dpo Repeat beta tomorrow.

all around ladies

I also posted in your journal - but I am so excited for you!

Mrs bear!! I am sooooo happy for you!!!!!! That is such great news !! I know that will make this hospital stay ALOT easier!!!
Kristy I feel u! I feel like I will start any day now! Sniffle!'

Don't loose hope!!

wow, so much has happened! Good luck to you all on 2ww and those still stimming.

Congrats Mrs Bear, hope you feel better soon.

OTD was yesterday, but I was testing from Saturday when I got my first BFP. Tested everyday, sometimes twice a day, till yesterday when I got the phone call after b/w. Happy, but very cautiously happy... with everything we've been through we're not taking anything for granted and will take each day at a time...

Vesper, conragulations on your bfp. I completely understand why you would be cautious. Do you think they will put a cerclage in? Our patients with history of IC also either use progesterone suppositories or weekly injections of P-17 - throughout the whole pregnancy. Keeping you in my thoughts!!

I am disappointed in myself that I tested early. I tested yesterday with a cheap test and a frer today. I have no will power. Today is 7dp5dt of hatching blasts.

I have faint lines on both. (photos in journal) I can't believe it. Beta isn't until Saturday morning so hopefully this is the real deal.

Wow, so exciting 31, don't feel bad about testing...I was thinking about testing everyday following trigger - to watch for when it returns to normal then I can tell if a bfp is real. Psychotic right?

Babydrms - I had a transabdominal cerclage put in last year, after the loss. Usually they don't do this unless you've had more than 2 second trimester losses, but I wasn't going to wait that to happen; one loss enough for me...

Ha and you told me to step away from the tests But I have to say you are alot further on than I was I am so pleased for you. Congratulations xx

This thread is buzzing with bfp's, here's to hoping it spreads to ALL of us! Congrats ladies and yes Vesper21 you are so right: one day at a time.

I triggered with Ovidrel last night @1am...I feel nothing, I dont know why but I was expecting to feel side effects or something.

Quick question. So your due date is determined by the day of ER right?

I am told that I still get my due date 40 weeks on from the 1st day of last period If I get my BFP of course

Hang in there. My boobs were very very sore from the trigger. That completely stopped two days ago. My cramps are lighter today also. Hang in there. This is going to be your month.

Thanks hun. My mum commented on how much I am peeing at the moment. I just had the most overwhelming feeling that I was going to be sick. Except I went to the loo TMI alert and had an upset tum

Please let this be my time along with all you lovely ladies xx

I don't blame you at all, having experienced this with more families than I would like to think about - I would probably do the same thing. They might also add medications to keep your uterus super quiet.

31 - congrats Hun!

Lots of bfps going on in this thread, keep it up girls

31 and vesper congrats!

Postivie thoughts going your way KristyHart.

I'm just on my 4th day of stims...i feel so far behind. I have my first scan tomorrow. When did you girls start feeling bloated? I don't feel anything yet, but i guess it's too early.

I was aware of my ovaries on day four, which was strange but I didn't start to feel super bloated until Day 8 and 9. I also think it depends on how many follies you have and how big they are. My right side is much "fuller" than my left and it has a lot more follies.

so do you think they will be able to determine when your ER will be after your scan tomorrow? how exciting!

I really hope so - I am running out of room on my tummy to inject and the bloating is out of control!

[Arimas]

Hi Ladies,

I did a hpt and got a

My DH wanted me to test ever since ET I told him its too soon, so this had to be done so that he could come down to reality.

I go for my beta on Tuesday so just 4 more days!

Good luck to everyone and congratz to those who are preggo!

 

[babydrms]

Arimas - It is still really early.

Berki and Springy - don't worry we will still be around.

Today is just a BLAH day. Nothing is going right. I got to my doctors appointment and they were like - "we've been trying to call you, our ultrasound machine is broken and we are going to have you go to our other office (an hour away) for your scan" WTF? Thankfully, a moment later my doctor walks up and she was having to take another patient to another doctors office in the building for a saline sono and she tells them she will take me up there too. So I get my labs drawn for the ninth time in less than two weeks in my same sore vein - ...Then, when I saw the MD upstairs - she tells me she thinks I won't be triggering until Sat or Sun which will royally F%$# my work schedule and also means I will have been stimming for two weeks and I am just done. My belly is feeling like it will explode soon, I can barely touch my boobs and everywhere I try to inject now it just hurts.

So then I leave and call my husband and he tells me, our flex spending declined 2/3's of our claim for all the medicine we paid for. Turns out even though I paid for it on 1/9, the papers all read 12/30 when they started filling the order in anticipation of me paying for it. So it looks like it would be for the 2011 flex account - not 2012. So I call pharmacy, work with someone for ten minutes on the issue and she hangs up on me. Finally I got someone to figure it out, but I know this is going to be an issue still - And it is not a small amount of money!!

Also, at acupuncture today - every needle just hurt and I started looking around and I have tons of little bruises everywhere that he has been puting needles - No wonder it hurts!!

I just want to be done. I AM SO DONE WITH NEEDLES!!

I'm going to take a nap and try and wake up on the right side of the bed because I feel like my BP must be through the roof right now.

 

[berki]

Babydrms- Hang in there you are getting so close!!! It will all be over soon... hugs

 

[Springy]

Babydr - HUGS HUGS HUGS to you!!! Hang in there the BFP will ALL be worth it

Went for ER today at 12pm. Everyone was very nice to my husband and I. They had me doped up on a great cocktail, lol. I didn't call or see my dr to ask how many eggs, I will call tomor and I guess then they'll tell me when for the ET . Going with hubby to get food now as I am starving. Only had a can of soup last night at 8pm.
