has anybody tested yet??
i want to hold on till mon 12dpo.i have been having all the AF signs but i'm refusing to let the thought sink in.i'm really praying for more BFP this cycle.if you have any  news please share with us.atleast that keeps us going.they say problem shared is problem half solved.
  and for those who did not have a BFP this month,it's okay.they say a journey of amile begins with a step.we've started the journey already.we'll get there some day

Sil--gawd, you've been through the ringer, your poor thing!!!!!!!! I have no clue what prometrium is--wish I could help. Maybe you should do a separate post about it. I am eager to hear what happens 1/11!!!

LJ--I decided to change my pic on my profile, and after our "gorgeous uterus" competition, I was going to post a pic of it on my profile, but changed it to my wedding portrait instead. (OK, I've beat the uterus thing to death, and of course do not have a pic of it!!! But I really did change my pic to my wedding portrait. I just had to razz you a little--it amuses me. Let me know if it starts to get on your nerves!!!)

Well it sounds like this is going to become the IVF group.  It looks like most of us are planning to take the next step for IVF.   Though that option isn't viable for me, I'm the "oldie" of the group.  Eggs won't be up for the challenge.  But, statistics are in all of your favor for IVF.   It gives me good feelings about this group for future BFP's.  

I sent a post to HeathJo yesterday and decided to create a new acronym for us.  BFM's  - Big Fat Mommies!!  (Of course I mean "fat" in the cool and groovy way, not the you've got a big fat arse way.)  lol.

Love your rhyme Heathjo!  I think you may have a future career ahead of you.  

Vingulf - WELCOME!!

Sil - that is odd about my name being dropped because I had another post the other day with someone aplogizing saying the very same thing!  The system doesn't like my name apparently.

Heather is right. I also read somewhere (wish I remember to bookmark these sites I go to!) that some women dont get positive hpt's at all! Something to do with how your body dilutes your pee, especially if you drink a lot of liquids. They say b/w is really the most efficient since your blood never gets diluted. So don't lose hope yet. Maybe AF is not making a stop at your house for the next 9 months ;-)

Was telling Heather about my talk with my mom...I asked her how soon she felt pg symptoms and she said she never did...only way she found out she was pg was if AF didnt show up. No cramping, no nausea, no dizzines...geez! wish I'm like her! :-)

I'm hoping too that this IVF journey is an express ride...

Heather: thanks for inviting me...I read your post about fifi...the week before I was to start my cycle, my RE discovered a cyst. But he didnt wait for it to go away. He did a procedure to suck out the cycst using a really tiny syringe needle. That delayed my cycle for a week...

SSBD to all!!!

Sil82 and Vingulf:  Welcome to our cyberfamily.  The ladies on this thread are awesome.  Supportive and knowledgeable, what else can you ask for.

HeathJo:  Thanks.  I am not any any fertility meds, but back in April I didn't test positive until after day 16 or 17.  I actually tested negative on day 15/15 back then, so I guess there is still a slight chance.  No real symptoms, either of AF or of pregnancy.  My bbs are mildly sore, but that could go either way I guess.  No real cramping just some intermittent mild twinges.  No appetite changes.  I have been very sleepy (hence the lazy dog reference) but that's about it.  I guess I have no choice but to wait a few more days and see what pans out.

I sent a pm to fifi, and here is her response:

"Hey Guys, I've been reading your posts.  I'm been in a holding pattern for the last couple of cycles due to a cyst.  I'm having accupunture treatments and as soon as the cyst goes I'm ready for IVF.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas & New Year.  I'm really excited about what this is going to bring all of us."

vingulf--Welcome, welcome! As I said in my personal message to you, we are always here!

Mary--Sorry about your BFN, but there is still a chance. I have read that some folks don't test positive with HPTs until 18dpo, and some NEVER do with HPTs. My mom was 2 mos pg with my baby sister and never tested pos with HPTs. I have also read several posts about people who were pg but still did not test + with HPTs either. I guess you are 14/15 dpo now. . .any symptoms, or is it to hard to tell b/c of meds. I asked vingulf (Maria) these same questions, and she just had her first IVF, so if you do go that route ya'll could be IVF buds! I hope you get a BFP, though.
