[Spockette]

OH MY GOOOOOOOOD,!! I have only just caught up. I have had the in laws here but I was thinking about you Stace!

This is the news I have been waiting for!! Many, many congratulations ( I may have shed a little tear)

You deserve this so much and I am wishing you a happy and healthy nine months.... Now, the next question......

How many of them are actually cooking away..........

Eeeeek....exciting......

Hope everyone else is cool? Shells.....get jiggy girl..... I'm just waiting for AF to rear her ugly arse head.

I've finished my Femara, and I'm waiting on my CD 13 ultrasound on Wednesday. Other than that, I'm doing good!

Congratulations stace that's fantastic news you never know you may well be joining me and having twins. X

 

[stacergirl]

Thanks so much ladies! I went in for my bloodwork today and my hcg is 350 which they said is a solid number. So Im officially pregnant, nurse confirmed and all!!! I go in on Wed for more blood work to ensure the HCG is growing/doubling then ultrasound at 7 weeks. We told my parents and my sister and 2 of our friends (which are husband and wife) as they were the only ones who knew we were doing IVF. Other than that keeping it quiet. Here is the picture you requested.

Imm i'd love to have twins just like you!! Did you find out what you are having yet? You're probably too early? Are you hoping for anything in particular?

Spock-thanks so much!!! I wont know how mnay are cooking until 7 weeks (this Wednesday will be 5 weeks). So have to wait a couple of weeks. I'm hoping 2, but will be satisfied with 1. I think it my HCG numbers rise drastically that they might be able to know there are twins earlier, but not positive. Im hoping AF doesn't show this month!!!!

Es-glad you are getting along, hope this cycle is it for you. I assume you are doing ovulation induction with monitoring?

Shells-hope you're getting busy!! I haven't been able to for over a month now....not even allowed orgasms...boring! LOL I think I have to wait until the ultrasound. Oh well. not complaining.

 

[ESwemba84]

Stace, those are awesome numbers! Congrats, again! Yes, we are doing OI with monitoring. After my ultrasound Wednesday I should be cleared to give myself a shot of Ovidrel, have sex, then take progesterone for the rest of my cycle. I'm hoping they increase the progesterone dose because AF still came about 6 days early last cycle on it, after only an 8 day LP.

 

[xxshellsxx]

wow thats some dark lines!!! and big numbers too - my guess it is twins! xxx No orgasms! Thats no fun but it will be worth it

We got busy friday, sunday and managed one more today! Got a positive this morning, blazing positive this lunchtime... and it's already turning negative this pm! My LH surge is really short! So O should happen any time now - should see a lovely temp rise tomorrow if all goes as it usually does Pleased we managed back to back BD days - DH stuggles to do those (well he is nearly 42 lol)

I got a text from the hospital today - i go in for my pre op assessment on monday!! BUT... that assessment could last for 3 months so it could be anytime from next monday i go in. She did say they often get cancellations and they ring round the waiting list to see if anyone can take it... so just a waiting game now! xx

 

[xxshellsxx]

gutted.... no temp rise this morning!! Don't think the SI has done as good a job as it usually does for me - timing was perfect if my temp had risen this morning - not going to be able to get DH to BD again tonight so i'm hoping i O sometime during today and we've done enough - my temp had better go up tomorrow

 

[lmm100]

Stacer we are having boy girl twins found out a few wks ago we paid for a us we just couldn't wait we had it confirmed last wk at our 20wk us. I've got everything crossed for you make sure you keep us informed.

 

[stacergirl]

Imm that's awesome!!! That's exactly what I would want!!

Shells-tell dh to take one for the team Snd put out tonight!! What's one more bd in the grand scheme of things?! You've already put so much effort in. Even if your temp rises this afternoon, I think you should still talk dh into it!!! Best of luck!!!

 

[Spockette]

Hi girls

Again, I apologise for being a bit AWOL. My in laws are here and I'm shattered....

Stacer, those are two beautiful lines The numbers are looking great too. I'm keeping it all crossed that the numbers are fab on Wed. I'm dying to know how many babies there are, although I now one would be absolutely brilliant. Keep us posted hon......xxxx

ES, really sorry to hear about the Short LP but I'm really pleased they are doing everything they can to help you. Fingers crossed the Ovidrel, Prog and the monitoring will do the trick.... Xxx

Shells, how you doing hon? Really sorry to hear about the temp dip BUT you are so not out yet!! Keep baby dancing, jump on your guy, tie him down, gag him.....do what you have to do!!

Imm, many many congratulations. One of each flavour!! All the best hon xxx

As for me girls, I had sex with hubby last Thursday which was about 8 dpo. I saw blood and naturally thought AF was on her way. Over the last few days I've wiped a few times and there's been a bit of blood on the tissue, not much at all. So I've been waiting for AF to 'flow' and haven't had anything. I've had no other symptoms apart from feeling like AF is coming. Today I did the One Step PT (cheapie ) and got a second line!

But to be honest, I'm not buying it......not just yet. I also threw away the test.....Im petrified to do another....

Not sure if this works. This is on my 15th pee of the day. I am about 12 DPO.....(not really sure when I ovulated to be honest)

What you guys think?

 

[stacergirl]

Spock Omg!!!! There's definitely a small line. Wait til 14 dpo, thats what I did and got my BFP. At 12 days the hcg levels might not be high enough, which is why you're getting a faint line. A lot of women spot around Af but she never fully comes. And my symptoms were tiredness cramps sore boobs hunger and Lower back pain. I really really hoping this is it!!!Fx!!

 

[ESwemba84]

I definitely see something there! I'd say test tomorrow AM, and see what it looks like. I'd say that is the beginning of a BFP! Yay!

 

[xxshellsxx]

OMFG!!!! that is absolutely BFP Maz!! If you do a FRER that will show a lovely pink second line for sure!! I've stalked enough tests and there is no question over that hun - you're pregnant!!!!

Finally your times have come girls i just so hope i'm not too far behind you both xxxx

 

[Spockette]

Thanks so much girls. Of course I am very, very happy, incredibly shocked and incredibly dubious. I haven't had any sore boobs or anything like that just a slightly late period....

I'm going to take an FRER tonight (if I can get one ) and see what it says in the morning. I also had my ultrasound last Tues and I was about 6 DPO (the most) but the tech didn't mention seeing anything on the scan.....

Shells.....You're definitely up next hon, no question about it..... Same with you ES!

Thanks so much girls.....Will update as soon as I can xxxx

 

[xxshellsxx]

not sure anything would be seen at 6dpo - but maybe that's why they were quiet.... maybe they saw something but didn't want to say anything in case they were wrong xx So excited for you ladies... but sad too as you guys will (quite rightly) head on over to the 'dark side' more and more and you guys have been with me for so long over here... i'll miss you xxx

 

[stacergirl]

Shells we won't leave you!!!! I'll be here til you get that BFP!! Which should be soon! Hence why dh better give it up tonight! Haha!! The same goes for ES too! We won't leave you!! But we will def be praying for youre BFP! I think this thread is getting lucky!!

I agree that 6 dpo would be too soon, the embry is only seen under a microscope at that point! Even 2 weeks and a few days past ovulation my embryo is only the size of an orange seed!!! Ahh! So excited for you!!

 

[xxshellsxx]

I hope you do stick around for a little bit longer i want to keep up with your exciting progress and really don't want to venture out of my safe haven to keep up with you both it's been just over 6 months we've been chatting the cycles and BFN's away Now the BFP's are finally flowing i'm so happy for you girls i love it when LTTTC'ers get that elusive BFP xx

no chance of a BD tonight - DH was late home he went to see his kids first... so he's just home, we're having dinner and then i'm out for the evening and he's seriously worn out so no chance when i get home he'll be snoring lol x I'll just keep everything crossed for that temp rise tomorrow!! OPK is faint now so it should have happened today sometime FX!! x

 

[stacergirl]

I haven't even made one post in the pregnancy forums, so trust me I will!!
