That is a long time to go! Glad you are getting back into the groove ;)

Are you starting to feel a little better? Have more energy? All that good stuff!
 
I am having one of those days. I am nauseous and passing big clots. The pregnancy test line isnt getting darker. If i were to guess I would say i lost the pregnancy. Taking another blood draw tomorrow so that will answer my question. I called the fertility clinic this morning and said i think i misscarried can i have a blood test today. They never called me back. So tomorrow afternoon i will know.

Try not to jump to the worst conclusion. I would brace myself for it, but try and have faith and know that you have done everything right and it is out of your hands. I know it doesn't make it easier but there is so much anxiety in early pregnancy and if you get good news tomorrow this will be just the beginning. I am a neurotic paranoid nut at least 10x a day. I will cross my fingers and say a prayer. My hpt test didn't really get darker after 15dpiui and it was only noticeable when I used another hpt a few days later. I saw the progression over 2 weeks but it was in slight intervals.

I am really hoping you get good news tomorrow. You might just be one of those women that get a period like flow early on. Sometimes our bodies need a while to realize whats going on. Maybe you implanted a lot later than you think too so your hormone levels need time to rise to signal to your body not to shed lining. :hugs:
 
Ali, I'm only getting on BnB here and there at the moment, so GOOD LUCK if I don't get speaking nearer to the time xoxo


Hi everybody, life is as manic as ever here although things seem to be settling a bit. DH is home and living in the back bedroom for the meantime. He is making a real effort but it's such early days....

Hi Angel, how are you feeling? Has the MS gone? I hope things continue to improve an stabilize with dh. :hugs:
 
I am having one of those days...

I'm so sorry JandK. :( I'm hoping and praying for the best. Hopefully it's just your body adjusting and there's something that can be done.

I can't believe that the clinic didn't return your call. WTH?!
 
Thanks for all the words of encouragement. I needed it. I will post my beta results tomorrow

JandK, praying for you and your results. It may not look positive but it can happen so keep an open mind and be prepared for all outcomes :hugs:. Sometimes the body gets rid of extra uterine shedding with all the change in hormones as well xo

I wish it had BW :sick:, I still feel rotten although I am getting a rare moment of relief now. I've had insominia for about 10 days, probably pregnancy and stress related and all I want to do is have a good :sleep:. It couldnt be long now until it lifts, PLEASE!!!!:winkwink: How are you feeling?


Coy... no start date for the job yetm bored.com and getting fed up!


Hi everybody, battery gone!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
JandK - thinking about you today.. hoping and praying that your little bean is sticking and like Angel said, its just a little part of the lining that is shedding.

Angel - hang in there! the MS should stop soon I think. Then hopefully you'll be able to relax a little and maybe get some :sleep: I hope that DH is working through his issues and not causing you extra stress.

BabyWhisperer - It is good to see that you are having some symptoms, symptoms are good! :thumbup: They mean that you are pregnant and that things are normal :happydance: Can't wait for your next US, when is that?

Sams - where did you go? :shrug: Hope you are doing well!

Grey Eyes - I hope your job hunt, school, DH and DD's are all treating you well. Here is to a nice weekend ahead! Hopefully spring is springing over there! :thumbup:

AFM just working a 1/2 day today as I'm doing the IVIg at 2pm. Still have a darned headache :growlmad: From my counts I should be able to stop taking the lupron once I start doing the PIO shots, and that is next Sunday. I am thinking that once we move to that phase, I should start feeling a lot better! I hope! :thumbup:

Damn your Lupron! I hope the peppermint is at least taking the edge off the headache. I think you need to do some deep breathing and positive visualization this round. Imagine the implantation happening, a healthy lining, the egg burrowing deep into a cozy spot and it growing!

Afm feeling fine. Some cramping here and there and I'm ravenous!
 
Yep.. the lupron is a :witch: I'm focusing right now on getting through today's IVIg then I'll be focusing on getting through the rest of the lupron. Pretty sure I can stop taking in another week. So the end is in sight!

Then it will be smooth (well smoother) sailing. The patches aren't too bad, and while the PIO shots are not fun, they don't really cause me any side effects (other than a sore a$$) :rofl: and maybe fatigue :sleep: I can handle those!

Plus 2 weeks today I will be having my transfer!! :happydance: A good friend is going to take me and is super excited to be part of the day. She is such a sweet person, and to see her getting excited and volunteering to be my chauffeur is so amazing! :thumbup: I might even ask her to sit in. I think she would really enjoy that, and it is really fun to share it with someone! :flower:

Glad you aren't feeling too badly today. If you are hungry, EAT!!! Just make sure it is a good healthy food. Like oatmeal or an omelet or mmm.. maybe a breakfast sandwich with canadian bacon and cheese with that egg!
 
Hi ladies! :hi:

JandK-- fx'd for a good beta. I know bleeding and clots seems bad but try to hope for the best. Big :hugs: to you!

Ali- I agree w/Babywhisperer-damned Lupron!:growlmad: lol! Gotta admit tho it serves a purpose ... I am soOOoo glad you post updates because I'd be spinning trying to keep up w/your info! :haha:

Babywhisperer- I agree w/Ali, try not to let these idiots stress you out. Just do your job well and stay focused on you ;) :hugs:

Angel - well I hope once your job starts the boredom is finnato! :haha: So glad you are doing well though and everything is sorting itself out.

AFM- :shrug: doing great, sunny days! :happydance: yay! and the wind is not blowing so hard so maybe take dd's for a walk today. Babes is such a daddy's girl :cloud9: she chants "adadadadada" constantly. I am told she chants "mamamamama" when I'm gone but not sure I believe it :winkwink: lol! Oh, did I mention I stuck a nail c=into my thumb and felt it scrape bone :argh: and had to go get a stupid tetanus shot :dohh:
 
The fertility center just called and they dont have the results today because the lab didnt start testing till 4pm. Nurse said she would call in the morning. They should know fertility patients are crazy. According to my chart and the 5 pregnancy tests i took this week im pregnant. Still waiting

UGH.. what a pain! I'm sorry that you are still in limbo. How is the bleeding, is it tapering off or getting worse? Have you taken any tests today? Are they getting darker or lighter?

I hope you get some good news tomorrow :flower:
 
AFM - infusion is done! It took forever! She didn't want it to cause me any side effects so it dripped in really slowly. She started it at 2:30 and it wasn't done until 6:30. Then she wanted to stay to make sure I was OK, and she only just left! :wacko: I feel like I drank a few margaritas, but other than that I'm feeling fine. I'm also starving!
I'm going to head out and get some Chinese food. Since that is what I feel like. Plus I feel like I could eat a horse! :haha:
 
Hello Ladies, Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Ali- I was thinking of you today. That infusion took a long time! I am sure you are glad it's done. Now on to the fun stuff. Two weeks is just around the corner! :happydance:

Babywhisperer- being ravenous is a good sign :thumbup: Glad you are haveing good symptoms.

Grey Eyes- Ouch that nail on the thumb sounds painful :( Good thing you got a tetanus shot. Be careful!

Jandk - Waiting on tests results is emotionally draining. :hugs: for you

Afm- microwave, crockpot and vacumn all stopped working this week!! Darn it happening the month we have over $2000 worth of medical bills :headspin: Well tonight dh took me to Best Buy and we were lucky, someone had returned a whirlpool microwave because of a barely visible dent and it was on sale for $100. So we got the extended warranty for 5 years so if it breaks before then like our previous one (it turned 4 years this month) then we are covered. I am having EWCM and did an opk this evening but it was negative.
 
The test results came back this morning and I lost the pregnancy with the heavy bleeding and clotting this week. My hcg was 7.5 on Friday. I walked the March of Dimes charity event this morning and now going to my moms to spend the night.
 
Very sorry JandK!
