Oopps I haven't had anything to drink today lol. I'm at the hospital outpatient services waiting lol. It's for the recurrent miscarriage panel. Wish me luck. I brought a granola bar for afterwards and an orange since I had to have an empty stomach.

Its very hard to tell, i swear our bodies play tricks on us, when i got pg in august, my bbs were soooooo sore, this time they are a little sore but nothing like they were. Ohhhh i hope its a good sign, your getting close, did you test the trigger out?

Now now, none of that negative thinking, think positive, when i got pg in august i had bleeding two days before they were doing the beta, so that would have been 4 days before af was due, and i got a bfp. Good luck!!

**32ellah** · 11-21-2009, 08:36 AM

No I havent.. I am in New Orleans for the weekend with friends..so I didnt want to ruin my weekend with a BFN

at the same time no Hurricanes or drinks for me

So its kind of a double-edged sword.. I just am really nervous to test

**Smplyme89** · 11-21-2009, 08:45 AM

I think it would be considered as starting over from the beginning - cycle 1.

**kbhlmh** · 11-21-2009, 09:06 AM

Well, another

for me today. temps are heading south and CM at cervix is tinged pink so AF should be here tomorrow, right on schedule. My next cycle will be unmedicated. I have found that back-to-back clomid cycles tend to give me cysts so I am skipping next cycle.

**ryanshopefor08** · 11-21-2009, 11:52 AM

Hi!

Had u/s and b/w today.

Estrogen: 897
Lining: 12.4

Right in line where I need to be on Day 8.

Staying on 150 Follistim/75 Menopur. Morning 5 units of Lupron.

Follow up appointment Monday. Should have a better idea on Monday when my ER is. I'm thinking its going to be Thursday.

Hope everyone is enjoying their saturday!

**pinkgirl** · 11-21-2009, 01:28 PM

Yay Jenn! That is awesome. I can't wait for retrieval day for you... Then you'll be closer to that BFP!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.

**cakegal** · 11-21-2009, 01:50 PM

Hi girls. It took me forever last week to catch up with everyone (constantly interrupted)There is all kind of stuff happening in here. New people and new graduates!! I'm going to try to recatch up with everyone this weekend. I think it's going to take a while....

I have news though. We FINALLY decided on a clinic!!

I'm so stinking excited!! We are going to start blood work next month and hopefully get knocked up in January or February!!

Can you tell I'm a little bit exited? I love my male IVF nurse and the doctor is great too....only he's not as good looking as the nurse....ooops,did I say that out loud?

Hope all of you are well and happy. I'm going to try to recatch up now. Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!

I am sorry to hear that

**Sarah13** · 11-21-2009, 11:13 PM

Starting another round of Clomid tomorrow. So anxious and want testing time to roll around fast

The provera made me really really moody this time around, so hopefully I'm not too much of a monster. Pray for DH lol!

**pinkgirl** · 11-22-2009, 07:28 AM

How is everyone elses wkd going? Hope everyone is well.

**Smplyme89** · 11-22-2009, 08:53 AM

Provera does that to me too Sarah

My temps are being stupid for some reason they have jumped up the past couple of days and I am not even on the Provera anymore

AF needs to hurry up and get here

**kbhlmh** · 11-22-2009, 09:09 AM

Why don't you humor me and test. You may have O'd around CD23.

I was actually thinking maybe I should too.... Maybe if my temps are still up in the a.m. I will but personally I just think they are trying to drive me

Nice work! That must be hard. You did it with grace. Best of luck on your results. keep us posted.

**mominw8ting** · 11-22-2009, 05:52 PM

Well, I think my IVF (2) WW is over a little early. I started heavily cramping on Thursday, spotting on Friday and woke up bleeding today. Called RE and he said, "this isn't your period, your body is going through a lot of hormonal changes right now. Come in Wednesday for your beta". So there we go.

I have had a few breakdowns this weekend. I wanted this so badly.

Each day the crapming/spotting got worse then today the blood. I have a very short luteal phase (obviously) but I thought shooting up 1.5 Progesterone would help thicken me up and hold off a potential period.

I am calm now, and have made peace with whatever is happening. As my doc says, it isn't over till it's over. I believe in miracles, so I am calling all angels!!

Just know, I will be alright, no matter what Weds holds. I have a loving and supportive DH. He is my best friend. He told me we will sell our house if needed. We will pay whatever it takes to make me a mom. I don't care about the money we spent, or the pain, needles..etc. I just feel like we were so close and I will cherish the picture of our little embryos.

I am a woman, a daughter, a sister, a wife & a friend. I am a Sales Manager, a jogger and a loud belly laugher. I am a MOM-IN-WAITING. And so our journey goes on.

And this Mom-In-waiting isn't giving up. No way. No how.

I will keep you posted no matter the outcome. Thanks for your support. ~ K

**pinkgirl** · 11-22-2009, 06:18 PM

Ohhh honey, you never know... It can mean anything. Just take it one day at a time. How long has it been since your transfer? Just keep praying for a miracle and I will keep praying for you too. I'm sorry for the spotting and now bleeding.

I love how strong you are staying, I know I had a hard time and told my DH I quit... then after all the crazy progesterone left my body, I was back on and knew I wanted to try again... Sometimes you just need a good cry and then you are ready to move on and keep fighting. We just have to be thankful for EVERYTHING we have been blessed with, our families, our wonderful amazing DH's, our faith in God. Just stay positive and I'm always here for you as is everyone else if you need to vent.

You better keep us posted or I'll come find you

**Shadybaby** · 11-22-2009, 07:21 PM

Thank you all for your replies.

**Sagan8** · 11-23-2009, 06:58 AM

Good morning everyone... Hope you all had a good weekend. It rained here most of the day Sunday so we spent the day relaxing - that was nice!

So all of you in the 2ww how are you doing? I am wanting to POAS so bad,

but I refuse to this time. I only have 2 days left so I guess I can make it and my husband does not want me to. He said he is going to believe I am pregnant until they tell us otherwise.

Are any of you having any symptoms? I cramped all last week and as of Sunday it stopped so who know. My BB are sore but they were before the transfer so I can't go off of them. Last week I would have said I was pg, however today I don't feel like I am... I know this all part of the IVF rollercoster.

Mominw8ting - please let us know the results when you get them. You are such an amazing women and your outlook and strenght should give us all encouragement! May God Bless you!

**mominw8ting** · 11-23-2009, 08:03 AM

Thank you all. I will keep you all posted! you are all an inspiration.

Anyway, this will happen. We are blessed with a loving family to support us. And I will be back on the horse soon. Maybe this new doc will know more about my Short Luteal Phase and perhaps have a way to make my lining nice and thick.

Thanks to you all. I will be in touch soon

Good luck to everyone!

Stay strong. I know I caved and it was awful seeing that BFN. My clinic told me that one lady POAS and it was BFN so when she went in for her beta, she was telling them she knows she's not pregnant and then they called her to tell her that she was in fact pregnant!!!! I think it might have been the lady that had her retrieval and transfer with me, who knows. I just say don't POAS and stay strong. I know I'm definitely going to when we do the FET... I'm still hoping all goes well and I actually ovulate on time. lol. It was always so late before that I don't know what my body will do on a natural cycle now. lol.

Hey Serena, did you and your DH try the old fashioned way by BDing while O'ing? I know some people still try it, just curious if you did. And how did you decide on how many embabies to transfer? Were yours 3 day or 5 day? Sorry I forget.

I'm definitely keeping you in my thoughts and prayers for your beautiful Thanksgiving BFP!

I was the one who had a neg hpt and positive hcg... It was only a 9 and dropped by the second test. I think getting told I was pg after a neg hpt was even worse, because I knew it was not going to stay... I was trying to stay hopeful but just knew all the same.

As fas as the old fashion way goes... No, we both have been altered so there is not hope of me getting pg that way. To be honest with you I wish I could just sleep the next 2 days away!

****You can wait! DONT POAS!!! I know how you feel, I want to as well but I bet my husband I would wait so I can prove Im strong enough to fight it, lolol

My beta is scheduled for Dec 2 and today Im having some mild cramping (6dpt 3dt) but nothing different from what Ive had all along (sore boobs, bloating) the Dr just called and said none of the 4 embies made it to freeze :-( So of course now Im thinking the 2 they transferred wont make it either. Bummed but trying to be positive! The wait is killing me!!
