jewelz, i'm delieghted for you and your little baby - huge congrats!

endo, wow, your stimming has passed really quickly. when do you go for ER?

i'm in the tww and desperatey trying to remain sane. i've never done a fresh cycle and everything seems different from my last 2 FET's. following ET, I felt like my body was still recovering from the ER. trying not to get caught up in every little cramp, twinge and just let it be.
my hubbie is being amazing, really hopeful and positive.
sticky, festive baby dust to all you lovely ladies x

So, how's everyone doing? My 2ww will end Wed and I know I'm weird by I'm kinda bummed. With our IF issues this is the only chance we have at all so I'm happy to just stay PUPO (pregnant until proven otherwise)!!! I'm having so many symptoms but I know they can be attributed to the PIO shots too. I guess Wed will be the day!

i'll be testing soon after you on sat.
my hubbie is like you, calling me 'his pregnant wife' being super certain that this it our time and our baby is growing all the time.
i just feel kinda numb, too scared to hope and believe - it seems such a huge dream for me know, i sometimes think 'how would i react?' given a BFP. i'm fantasing all the time about the baby.
please let this be it.
i'll be thinking you you on wed, best of luck

Sorry I haven't been on in awhile. In all honesty, I was just trying to forget about the process while waiting to start back up after my surgery in October to remove my tubes. I'm prepping for my FET before Christmas.

We r doing our last FET for this cycle, 2 that were twice frozen so we are trying to not get our hopes up too high :( we will start a fresh cycle in January if needed, so that's the silver lining :)

Wishing everyone the best and looking forward to seeing some of u during the 2ww!

Wow, time is flying really flying.

We go into the ER tomorrow. I can't believe it's hear. Tgratton and I had surgery at the same time in October, so we've been waiting for this day for so long (since April).

Then we'll have either a 3 day or 5 day transfer. On Saturday they said I had over 30 follicles, but about 5 looked really good, the others were varying sizes (aka smaller/low quality?).

It's been really hard for DH, this process. He broke down several times this weekend. He was furious when I asked him to go to my ultrasound appointment on Saturday. Needless to say, that did not make me happy. He still came, but kicking and screaming.

So wish us luck tomorrow. I feel like my doc will be walking around with a raw chicken egg on a spoon, hoping nothing falls or cracks. That's kind of what they're doing, right?

Baby dust to you all.

nive and Hopefully, I know how you feel! I test on Tuesday. I keep having strange symptoms, like cramps that come and go, instead of being a constant and nive summed it up best - it sort of still feels like I'm recovering from the ER sometimes.

DH suggested having them email him the result, and then he would tell me when he gets home from work, so that if it's negative, I wouldn't be at home sobbing my eyes out for hours until he gets back. While I appreciate the gesture, I've waited too long not to know right away!

Jewelz congratulations ! That's so exciting.

Endo good luck tomorrow I hope it goes well!!

This 2ww is just awful!! I am absolutely driving myself and my DH nuts. I google every symptom and I even called my ER office this past Friday to further review my symptoms and make sure I was ok! The first few days after the ET I felt super crampy and bloated. Also my bbs hurt so bad I slept with a bra for 2 nights. I still get a crampy feeling on my left side sometimes but the bloating is gone. Also the last 3 nights I've had a stomach ache. It starts almost the same time every night. I'm wondering if that's the PIO? I'm nervous that its effecting my embryos. I probably sound like a crazy person but I'm just worried. I am trying to remain calm but its difficult. I also keep fantasizing about getting a BFP and thinking about our baby. I hope it happens more than anything else in this world!
I'm praying for some BFPs this week for you ladies!! My test is Monday dec 17. Best of luck for us all!! Xoxo

So we have a change of plans. No more beta Wed now it's tomorrow. I would be really excited except I began spotting a little bit today. I've been down this road soooooo many times that I'm almost positive its a failure.

The nurse said that 35% of the patients who are pg have some to fairly heavy bleeding. I really hope that's my case but I know my body way to well.

Best of luck to everyone else. I'll update tomorrow but I think I'm done.

hopefully, its not over until its over, remember PUPO!
keep the faith my dear,
i'll have everything crossed for you tmrw x

nive, hopefully, endowife, and whims, so excited for you all, Stims, ER's, ET's, etc.....I have my 2nd US tomorrow, and hopefully we can see our peanut tomorow again and all is well.....keeping tabs on you all :-)

We need a megaburst of happy sent our way. Come on, universe! It's about time!

i second that endo!
I'm up and down like a yo-yo!
Megaburst of happy please!!! x

I just heard on the Today Show - TODAY is the most fertile day of the year!! They said based on birthdays, today is the best. December 23rd is the least. Funny, eh?

@whimsical and Hopeful, I'm holding your hand today as you find your results. Group hug!!!

All of us, we need to push period symptoms out of our mind. My fertility clinic said that's normal to have PMS symptoms and spotting...but that it's often still a-ok. :-)

@Melry, I feel for you. I also just read that we shouldn't do the pregnancy tests ahead of time because they often are wrong because of all the meds we've been on. So hold out, and do some yoga or something to relax you and take your mind off things. I know this will be good this time...

@nive, Saturday, eh? How are you holding up? Any tips for the 2WW?

Thanks so much, endowife! I went in about an hour ago for my blood test. Just waiting for *that* phone call.

Fingers crossed Whims :)
