June/July IVF/FET buddies! :)

Thanks ladies.

I'm no doctor but boob enlargement sounds like a good sign.

The progesterone shots have definitely worn out their welcome with me but they are honestly a lot less painful. I think its because I've singled out the spot on my cheeks where it hurts the least. I'll try to explain...picture you have a pair of jeans on, now picture where the pocket would be...... the top outer corner of the pocket is where I take my shot. Alternating sides each night. Goes in pretty smooth. Hope that made sense

I am really hungry. Just devoured a peach and a plum. ready to start gnawing on my left hand. Hope everyone is having a great day.

Yup, that's where I do it, too. And I bend over, too, so that there's less fat to go through.

Lanet, I've not done acupuncture for fertility, but loads of people do. If it helps you relax, do it. I've done it for migraines, and the only side-effect was the price, which is why I don't do it anymore..

 

[Disturbia]

Tried to keep up with this thread.....not easy. Hehe. Welcome back again Becky. Sorry for your lost and fingers crossed you will bring home baby. I only can imagine what you have been through. You are a brave woman.

Island, we are not offended at all. I don't even know that rule. I would have done the same. So friday is your beta?

Lanet, I wanted to try acupuncture this 2nd fet but time flies and so many tests that cost me alot already. So, I did not try it. Next month have to pay fet again *sigh*

Meanwhile my update: spotting is more and more. My clinic said not to worry, I still can follow the timeline. I was bleeding a week before fet and had my april fet canceled, hope it will not happen again. Nerve racking!

 

[lanet]

Disturbia I've heard of girls spotting and being switched to a higher form of estrogen. I wonder if that would help? I hope you don't get cancelled! My ivf was cancelled 3 times and I feel like I'm holding my breath until transfer bc I don't want anything else to go wrong.

Ladies ladies --
I had my terrible migraine (still have it) in the middle of the night, and said "*f* it" and tested at 3 a.m.:



I cannot believe it. It's very dark. (Should be, at 10dp5dt) It's the first + I've ever seen, ever. I told hubby and we held each other a long time. He patted my tummy and I almost burst into tears. Thought it was all a dream when I finally got up in the morning, and there the little test was staring me in the face in the bathroom! I had to at least tell you guys to make it real.

Going to call the nurse now about both things happening to my body...

 

[lanet]

Ahhhh flannel!!!!! I'm soooo excited for you!!!! Congrats congrats!!!!

 

[islandnyc]

Flannel - I literally just teared up and clapped at my desk. I am so happy for you and your husband!!!

Disturbia- Tomm is my beta finally I know this day is going to crawl by. I'll prob be in bed by 7:30 tonight. In regards to the spotting. I know that I bled the entire time that they had me on birth control and it actually continued into the cycle when I started stims. I told the nurse like 5 times and she never took me seriously as if it was no biggie. I am really hoping that your cycle goes on without a hitch. Same with you lanet positive vibes!

YAYYYYYY FLANNEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So happy for you! Best news I've heard all day.

 

[River54]

yay Flannel!!!! congrats!!

 

[lanet]

Disturbia, and other ladies...I had my scan today and my lining is 10. However when I came home I noticed 2 light spots of blood. Its not bright red, maybe brownish. Could this be from the ultrasound? Disturbia did you ever get any answers?

 

[Flannelsheets]

Lanet, my guess is that that's from the ultrasound. Too aggressive of a dildo-cam? Lining of 10 sounds perfect!

How you doing, River?

Thanks for all the congrats, ladies! It means a lot. You're all very sweet, and it's so helpful to share here -- as you all can imagine, we haven't told anyone else yet, and I have to tell SOMEone! I think we'll tell our parents this weekend, though I'm a bit freaked out about that...

 

[River54]

dildo-cam - I crack up every time I read that! Told OH about that and he had a good chuckle as well

lanet - I am with Flannel - probably just irritation from the us. 10mm sounds great

Flannel - when is your beta?

I did test today, and got a faint but there BFP on a FRER (7dp5dt) Probably hold out til Sunday to test again, make sure it is getting darker, then beta on Tues. This is our very first BFP while ttc these past few years, so nervous...will feel better about it after the beta. OH is happy, but I don't think it has sunk in for him yet either.

 

[islandnyc]

River54 that is wonderful!!! Congrats!! Wow this is amazing ladies, this this must be a good luck thread.

 

[lanet]

River wow congrats!!!! You're right this must be a lucky thread. How are you feeling?

 

[Flannelsheets]

Whoa! All kinds of good news today!! Congrats!! My guess is that it will get darker in a few days! The whole thing is very surreal, isn't it? I fully expected the thing just to be stark negative this morning, just because I don't even know what a positive looks like.

Our beta is Mon. Like you, I'll feel more license to be excited after I see the real numbers. (Of course, this hasn't stopped me from looking up our potential due date...)

Three cheers for the lucky thread!

 

[lanet]

So what is the due date flannel?
My nurse called. Everything looks perfect, I got the go ahead to start pio Sunday, no more appts just show up on Friday for transfer!!!!! Yay yay yay!!!!!!!!

 

[Mas1118]

Hello Ladies, I just had my 1st FET yesterday! 2 grade A blasts Feeling pretty positive right now. So far I have had lots of cramping though and 2 very noticeably dizzy spells today. My dog jumped on my tummy a bit ago - I was so upset! I am so hoping he didn't mess anything up I feel bad though cause I yelled at him and made him feel bad! I think it is pretty insulated in there so I don't think it did any harm and it only hurt for a few seconds. Im just being paranoid!
Congrats on the bfp's!!

 

[islandnyc]

Flannel - I looked it up too lol My Due date according to this calculator is Tuesday 24, February 2015

[islandnyc]

Welcome Mas!! Best of luck to you. If it's any consolation my two year old climbs on me like I'm his own personal jungle gym and I brought this up to the nurse and she said it's fine just try to relax and not lift anything too heavy.

 

[Flannelsheets]

Yay Mas! I'm sure your little blob is ok. Though I probably would have had the same reaction...

Island, that's the same estimated dd as me!!
