Natalie oh my goodness, that's so sad. What kind of boss doesn't show at least a little compassion in a time like that, geez. My heart goes out to your DH and his colleagues. Hope you had a good time at your mom's. Om nom nom chicken fajitas....

Becky, oh no, sorry you're miserable and your poor pup on top of it all! Hope your DS is feeling better soon.

Hi Barb wooowwww that's really exciting. All of your misery now will be worth it in the end.

Sis and Meg, hope you're doing alright.

AFM, I didn't get the tingly thing after taking the Clomid tonight, so it probably was all in my head. So far still tolerating it well, I think. I still feel like the rough part is yet to come.

Hey girls.. Happy Monday

Barb - So sorry you feel like crap after all those meds.. yuck! I really hope your recovery from ER is not as bad as it is for some.. You have had enough of this BS and deserve something easy for once. This is a big week (and month!) for you.. I couldn't be more excited. You mentioned you would likely be testing first week of Feb?

Nat - I am so sorry about Pete's co worker and that they are going through that... that is just awful! And wow you would think the employer would give a lot of understanding after such a trauma... the staff may need counselling and time to grieve.. that's just awful. I hope you are doing much better now - and Pete too!

Erin - Glad the Clomid didn't give you the tingles again! hehe... could have been psychological or totally unrelated! You never know hehe... I hope side effects are not an issue for you now xx FX for you this cycle...

Sis - I tossed and turned all night too! I hope you are feeling better today... let us know how you're doing.

AFM, this is going to be a strange week at work. Everyone is already behaving differently now that we have all been officially terminated and no one knows what's going to happen next and which of us will have jobs lol.. exciting stuff!

First scan is tomorrow.. I am starting to get realllllly nervous, I have been ok until now as there have been lots of distractions but now that its one day away I feel nervous. I will be 6+1 tomorrow. This is the week I started to spot and miscarry last time so I feel a little extra paranoia about that.. cant help it - BUT I am thinking positive overall and I keep reminding myself that statistics are in my favor.

Edit: I see my ticker has been updated to a "sweet pea" lol

xo

 

[eyemom]

Thanks Meg.

Sorry about the job stuff, who could act normal after that???

Good luck at your scan tomorrow! I'm thinking good news! I have learned from another thread though that in the early scans, if things measure a few days smaller than you'd expect, not to worry b/c sometimes it just varies and then the baby catches up! I've got everything crossed for you!

Thanks Erin I will definitely let you guys know how it goes!

 

[Petzy]

On another note you would not believe what my boss just said to me....she says how far along are you now? Two months? I said not exactly there just yet. And she said oh well it (M/C) could happen again so don't count that chicken until it hatches you know.

I wanted to SMACK her. Like who the fuck says that to someone????

 

[eyemom]

What the....

There's no adequate RAGE emoticon.

Seriously??????

UGH some people!!! Just because her life is falling apart doesn't mean she can just be so flippant about everything and everyone else.

T
H

Oh man I am so soooo pissed for you.

 

[Petzy]

I know... it was enraging. She is a horrid woman. She has a strange jealousy with younger women... You can tell she once was quite pretty and is depressed to be aging (67) and she has always shown this side of herself which is just petty and green.

 

[barbikins]

Nat, I'm so sorry for the awful news. How are you guys?
Did you know this guy much?
PS: emailed you ...& Meg

And Meg, for the record, your boss is a faking bitch. She's jealous alright.
What a horrid thing to say. And she knows you've had a M/C too? anyway. She's got issues.
Plus did I miss some thing? Are you laid off too?
It's a crappy time when this sort of shit happens in a company. So unfortunate.

And hello everyone else

I've got 21 Follies & estimate 5-10 will be mature enough for fertilization.
Had my last round of shots today. Will trigger at 11pm. Got Estrogen pills & Progesterone shots for the next two weeks. MORE DRUGS BLURG. I hope I have no side effects.

Transfer date will either be the 18th or 20th!

Thanks Barb - I replied via email but to sum it up yes its quite a week! I should find out about job hopefully this week and if I will really still have one... otherwise I am making other plans!

 

[Sis4Us]

Just wanted to Pop in and wish u All lots of Luck This week!!!

Still feeling like stewed Poo hopefully I'll be able to get some rest and feel better in the Am!!

 

[eyemom]

Ugh Meg I'm still not over it! Since she approached you before this whole ordeal, I thought (hoped) maybe it meant she was actually a good person. I see how wrong I was!

IDK I'd keep my eyes peeled (about job stuff) no matter what. I don't trust her at all.

Barb daaaannnngg 21 follies, no wonder you've been feeling it! Hope you can tolerate everything else ok.

Here's something I've never thought of. How do they calculate due date for an IVF pregnancy? Since it's not totally on the same timeline as a conventional one.

Hi Sis, hope you're feeling better soon.

AFM, day 4 of clomid, suuuuuper mild crampy feeling this evening, but barely enough to even notice. I wanted to get some better quality (as opposed to my usual IC) OPKs for this cycle, but the store by me quit carrying them. Just the CB digis. Which I've never used and apparently they're best avoided in a medicated cycle anyway. Soooo going to try another store and cross my fingers that it's there.

Random story, but either last night or night before last (I already lost track), I was saying something to DH about how something (I don't remember what) would be "really hard with an infant around." And DD was sitting next to me and said with big, bright eyes, "US ARE HAVING A BABY????" She sounded so excited. So I was like ahhhh no, sorry sweetie not yet. Bless her. She's going to be an amazing big sister someday.

 

[natjenson]

Hi Girls! Quick update as I just got to the office but, got to see baby today, with a healthy little heartbeat and all measuring 6 weeks exactly just like he/she should. It was a big relief and very surreal.

We have to make some decisions about pre screening and our doctor after first trimester when we go back in 2 weeks for my 8 week U/S. Lots to think about!

I will post a pic later when I get home xoxo Will check in soon

Yep I felt the right side a lot yesterday walking around. It was a bit painful! I did my trigger shot at 11pm yesterday for Ovulation. My boobs have been itching/tinglying today lol.
I'm excited & so nervous about tomorrow! It's fertilization day!
And as for calculating Due Date. If memory serves me correct, they calculate it based on the date you do the Embryo transfer. Some thing like this. If I'm pregnant this cycle, I'll be due early October.

Happy 6 week-adversary! I believe now your chances of MC have dropped significantly.

I think it's a boy.
