MAY we all be blessed with baby! May 2013 and beyond (BFFs Seeking BFPs)

[newbie2013]

Thanks ladies! We're having breakfast at a cafe close by the clinic. We got here nice and early to relax and beat some traffic. I'm feeling oddly calm... 1.5 hours to go!

 

[RaeChay]

Be sticky, little one!! All the good vibes to you.

 

[newbie2013]

4 "perfect" blasts with one potential depending on development overnight. One put back. Three frozen sseparately.. shocked!

Praying for good news from you

Hey! One in the oven and 3 backups are AWESOME for a single cycle! FX!!! You are PUPO!

 

[pathos]

Oh newbie, this is very exciting! FX FX, millions of prayers, good vibes, baby dust and all that stuff to your way...

Aliko, heheh i see what you mean... i am very happy with the final product, and sometimes i think what the heck - do it again - and a sibling is genetically is the closest he can get to a person. Then other times, i think but he is still a baby -and i should not divert my attention. Pff. Not an easy decision. So we left the decision to nature.

So we are oficially ntnp...

Oh...I hope that this little one makes a great home for the next 9 months!

Those results are awesome!

 

[kksy9b]

Amazing news!!!!!

 

[athena87]

Yay newbie that is so great! Praying for a sticky little bean!

 

[newbie2013]

Thanks ladies! I am honestly in shock with the result. I have also realised that, for the most part, my doctor is extremely conservative and cautious with what he tells me. He told me that the egg quality wasn't good, which me lose hope that there would be any left on day 5. I didn't think we'd get as many fertilised as we did and I was truly shocked when I was saw 4 blastocysts on the screen yesterday. I was like "4? Nah, they must be someone else's!" They didn't grade them by they looked similar to the ones I'd googled and the doc commented that they were perfect - I'm sure they aren't perfect, but they're blasts - 4 of them! He immediately said that he'd put in two and freeze two and I stopped him. Dh and I had always spoken about returning only one. We can't really cope with twins with both of us working full time. I don't have a history of miscarriage, so assuming I can actually hold actually pregnancy, two have a good likelihood of sticking - in theory. Doc mentioned that they would have to freeze the remaining three together and then thaw together - I again questioned why. Of course it was a matter of money, but the cost was not much more to freeze separately, which gives us more flexibility. Doc agreed that I'd chosen a good option. He put one back and now I'm pupo - the closest I've ever been to being pregnant. One more embie might continue to develop into a blast and if It does, they'll freeze that today as well. Three on ice is amazing. I'm seriously stunned.

Thanks again for amazingly your support and prayers. Keep praying for this to stick!

 

[kksy9b]

Sounds like you all made a great decision! When do you do your first beta draw? Do you think you'll test before then? And when will you find out if the last one made it to freeze worthy?

 

[ClandestineTX]

AMAZING. And assuming this one takes (cause there's an excellent chance it will), you have backups ready, if you want more than one!

 

[momwithbabies]

Newbie: Love the good news! Yay!!!

 

[newbie2013]

The doctor set my beta date for march 8th. I think if I feel any indication at all that it may have worked, I'll sneak to the lab a couple of days earlier for a test. Fortunately, I can just walk in and ask for a test and don't need a referral. Even if they ask, I have the letter from the doctor for the 8th and I can just tell them the doctor asked me to go in earlier. I won't be POAS at all. Don't have any at home and wouldn't trust it anyway - too many hormones pumping through me.

Yes, Clande, back up is amazing. I will, hopefully, never have to go through stimulation and egg retrieval again. Thank goodness. It wasn't difficult as such, but I'm grateful that everything has progressed well so far and I have spares in the freezer. Fingers crossed I won't need them... still dreaming (literally, not daydreaming) about identicals - sometimes girls, sometimes boys. That would freak me out!

 

[Hopeful2014]

@newbie2013 That's so exciting! I'm sending good luck and keeping everything crossed.

 

[kksy9b]

How are you doing newbie?

Hopeful- good to see you! How are you doing?

AFM, hoping to O today or tomorrow and confirm later this week ( I've started temping). Then just wait for AF and we will be trying again!!

 

[newbie2013]

Thanks hopeful. Good to hear from you.

Everything is completely normal here. I know it is still early but beginning to think it hasn't happened this time around. Thinking towards using a frosty in the next couple of months.

 

[kksy9b]

i'm sorry that you aren't feeling very optimistic right now but like you said, it is WAY too early to call yourself out. I barely had any symptoms on my BFP cycle until I was 5 weeks...everyone is different and you never know how your body is going to react to pregnancy. I hope the rest of your wait goes quickly and you get to see that beautiful BFP at the end

 

[ClandestineTX]

Thanks hopeful. Good to hear from you.

I had NO symptoms until 5 weeks 3 days, sore boobs only. Week 7 I had bouts of insatiable hunger and now mid-week 8, I am crazy tired. No symptoms doesn't mean you are out! Especially this early!

@kksy9b: good luck to you!

 

[kksy9b]

Thank you Clande! I'm super impatient to start. I'm very thankful that my doctor is going to intervene pretty quickly if I'm not actually ovulating, which sets my mind at ease
