Hi Jammy,

welcome! I my self is also new to this site and already found a lots of buddies they are very supportive with my 2wwk wait. Please take every ones advice not to take the HPT I my self was thinking about it, but after I read every one's experienced now I just want to wait until Friday. So we are testing on the same day Good Luck!

reading everyones post really give me more information about the 2wwk wait.

My 1-3 days ET transfer I have cramping, tenderness on BBS, but only slight on and off, a little bit of brown discharge, and felt having heart burn and my stomach was growling.

My 4 - 8 days discharge change from brown to white, but base on the research I did and the ladies here it is normal, and this might also becuase of the ovulation after the ET transfer, no more tenderness on my BBS on 4th day, but feel shooting instead of tenderness, still getting on and off cramping, but not that much, still getting little bit of back pain on my lower back, and the warm feeling, still felt hot, but no temp, stomach still growling on and off

Today is my 8days after ET I walk up around 6:00am I felt hot, my stomach still growling, I eat fruites this morning for breakfats, but I felt funny afterwards, I stop eating the fruites, but then eat peanut butter I felt better afterwards. I can tell you that this 2wwk wait our mind is palying tricks on us, plus with the medication that I am taken all the sysmptoms that I have this can efecti becuase of the medication. I am taken 1ml preogesteron once a day.

Hang in there and try to keep a journal and write down the symptoms you are having this will keep you busy and keep your mind out with the 2wwk wait, pluys with the helps of the ladies here it will keep you really busy.

Good Luck and a lots of babydust on your way......

Hello and thank you for your advice the more advice I am getting from you ladies the more stronger for me not to get the HPT. Base on the reasearch I did the white discharge is also normal so I don't have to call the doctor, but I will still asking him on my next appointment what it mean when the dicharge change color.

I just felt funny today and its kind of hard to explain, felt light headed, but maybe I just need to drink some water, I know base on my doctor's advice because of my progesterone to make sure to drink a lots of water.

I am now on my 8days after ET my test will be this Friday I can't wait for the results, just keeping my self busy even if I a not working. Next week I will be going to work, I took 2 weeks off for this 2wwk wait, I know it's not guaranteed, but at least I try to rest my self plus I needed a vacation any way and this is a good way to do vacation.

Thanks again and good luck for your next cycle.

Hi
Good to hear from you.I had FET and i suppose the symptoms are different than one have in fresh cycle.May be beacuse of difference in medications.I am taking 2ml progestrone. Some people even have more cramping during a fresh cycle because of after effects from retrieval.Actually everyone is different . Some people have many symptoms and some dont have any.Was yours FET or fresh cycle.I had 2 embroys transferred and my RE said they were very good.So lets see whats in store.As of now I am not having any symptoms except bit sore BB .I had few twinges on 2nd and 3rd day. No cramping , nothing.....
hope all will be fine with both of us.

Hi,

Let's just think positive we have 4 more days to go, right now I don't have any symptoms, except my stomach just keep growling even after I eat. I just need to enjoy my day off I will be going back to work on Monday, I am glad that I take the rest of the two week off I considered this day off as my vacation.

Mine was fresh IVF cycle, we did our 1st and 2nd IVF in overseas, this will be our 3rd IVF, we freeze 6 embies on our 2nd IVF, but none of them survive the thawed. This time they were able to retrieve 13, 11 fertilized, my doctor was able to trasnfer 4 embies. My number 4 and 5 embies base of what the doctor said they have slight chance that they will make it because of thier grade. I notice that some embies ir graded by alphabetical and numerical so I am asuming that mine was grade B and C embies.

Good luck again on Friday try to avoid the HPT... sending a you lots of babydust............

Well, I got my results.  The nurse called and said that my level is 19.  I have to go and retest on Wednesday to see if the number doubles.  If it does, then she will order the rest of my medications.  I am hoping that it is a late implanter as you suggested.

Damn devistated, this is so darn hard.  I hate this.  It may very well be a chemical pregnancy.  Now, I have to wait another 2 days before I know.  I tried to search the internet for beta levels of 19.  I only found one good positive.  The rest wasn't so good.

There goes the triplets and twins, and maybe even the singletons.  I don't get it.  I had 4 of the best quality possible of embryos implanted.  My husband said if it ends being up a bio chem pregnancy, we will try one more time.  I don't know if I want to spend another 15k to do this. But I want a baby bad.

Oh well.  I tried.

Take it easy.

HI, I just posted on the other forum....I'm sorry, I know how you feel.
You mentioned that you will try again, I would suggest it As soon as you can because the good news is You CAN get pregnant and the fact is that the embryo did implant so there are no problems there, so go for it, don't give up. I think that if you do have chemical then it probably could be a chromosome problem, just things I've read. If it is then that means that your body rejected the embryo because maybe something was wrong with it (chromosomal) and the embryo stopped growing. It makes sense if you think about it. I know it hurts like hell and there is still hope. Sheeze you think the 2ww is bad; the beta wait s u c k s even worse. Keep your chin up and I'm here if you need me.

Hi...feels like I have you known forever.  Your posts touch me and it makes me cry.  I guess because you know how I feel and how much it hurts.  Being able to share my feelings with someone really helps, especially to someone who knows exactly what I am feeling is even much better.  I don't have to go through this alone.

I am thinking next month, or as soon as the doctor says I can.  I am still trying to remain optimistic and positive.  Have you heard of anyone on this site getting a low beta number and still having a successful pregnancy.

I keep thinking I should have come home after the transfer.  I should have insisted they bring me home, but was too embarrassed to tell them what I just had done.  The next time I will definitely rest the first 2 days,

I totally agree with you.  The next 2 days will feel like a lifetime.  My DH still thinks I am going through a successful pregnancy.  Sure don't want to let him down.

Thanks for all your advice and wisdom.  I couldn't have done this without you.

Have a nice evening.

I promise it is not because you went out after the transfer. Promise, Promise, Promise.
Please don't beat yourself up over this. You have a wonderful husband. He sounds like just what you need. Positive. I'm glad I can help you, I was just telling my other IVF buddies that I e-mail (if you wanna exchange e-mails let me know) that I didn't know what to say to you. I am negative when it comes to low numbers and I didn't want to discourage you in any way. I'm only negative because of my outcomes and It wouldn't be fair to put my bad vibes on you....I can't believe there are three of you, I tell you for something that is so common I never knew anything about it until This past summer/fall.
I will tell you that no matter what was going on I still had that hope and belief that there was still a chance, so I'm hopeful for you and I'm gonna pray my heart out for you.
Keep that chin up and take it easy. Are you off work on Wednesday?
Talk to you soon. Linda

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this site and I first found it on 2/22/09 the day after my ET, I was having cramping and I was freaking out. Everyone's answers and stories have really helped me. This was my husban and I's first cycle and we have both been two HUGE stress balls... First thing the following Monday I called my doctor's office to tell them that I was cramping. They said tht it was a good sign and to relax and not worry. Well a couple days past with light cramps and then up until a few days ago they got real bad(real bad) waking me up curled up in pain. So I called my doctor's office again, for like the 10th time. They said (cramps are a good thing in the ivf world). So we are 2 days away from our BT (3/05/09) and I have to admit I did a EPT and it is positive, do you guys think it is right?

Welcome! I my self is also new to this site, I am sure you will find a lots of buddies here just like I did. So you are doing your test on Thurday mine will be on Friday I can't wait. I didn't get any HPT I was advice by my buddies and my DH to not get one, because it is a divil LOL....

I know it is hard specially when you are on the 2wwk wait. I my self also get the cramps it was pretty bad on my 1-3 days after ET, but then now it is on and off, I didn't get any tenderness on my BB just like every one else, I do however felt shooting on my BB once in a while, plus yesterday it scare me, becuase I felt a pinch in my uterus it got worst and it last for about 20-30 second, but then it stop, I was jus thinking that maybe I work my self to hard yesterday, plus I did my research and found out it was normal as long that I did get any spotting then nothing that I have to worry about.

If you felt back pain it is also normal, because of the medications that we are taken. Hang in there you only have two more days to go, I am sure everything will be okay and if your HPT give you a positive result then its a good singed.

Good Luck! sending you a lots of babydust...

Well I can not wait for your Bt on Friday, just the day after mine!
So do you have children now?

Devistated: thank you girl; any advice that I can get from any one really helps me to be stronger and be more positive. I have 2 more days to go I think I can handle the 2 days, but I think the hardest part is that few hours after the blood test. That will kill me... I will make sure to keep you guys posted.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi! ladies sorry I havn't been around lately took a few days off.

Pebbles I am really sorry about your results.  I know how you feel I took it really hard I cried until I couldn't anymore and when I think about it I cry again so I try not to think about it I try to focus on my next try.  I have 4 frozen embryos so as soon as we can we will try again.  That positive result makes you happy but when those numbers are low then those cruel words come Bio chemical pregnancy that really hurts positive but negative at the same time.

Devistated,  you know I have come to admire you yes you are like an angel to lots of us you are always there and you have been through so much and yet you are still hanging in there giving us all words or encouragement.  the truth is that your experiences has helped many of us and your thoughts and prayers comforts us too.  I want to thank you for being here in this site.  God Bless you girl and I truly hope and pray that God blesses you with a beautiful healthy baby very soon.

I think of you and draw strength from your positive attitude. You are my role model in this journey. I look up to you. I am blessed to have met your acquaintance. Thank you for being there for me. If I was a gambler, my money would be on you to have a BFP on next go round. I am rooting for some twins for you, triplets would be nice too. :-)

Milly and Pebbles, Well you did it you made me cry....I am so touched by your words and It makes me feel so happy that I can have such an effect on someone...I truly am beside myself right now. I have to be honest I get my strength from all of you and every one's experience. I have learned so much from everyone on this site and I've made friends for life....This site is amazing and I thank who ever put it together. We are all exceptional women and we are all SOOOOOO STRONG. Even when you feel your weakest and feeling helpless and you blame yourself or whatever you are feeling (the word empty comes to mind) you are really getting stronger because you overcome the feelings and do it all over again, We will never stop trying to conceive.....That is what makes you (both of you) so strong, so you see it's not just me; we all are.
I also wanna say that I met someone on this site who pulled me through my heartaches and that is Daisy. I couldn't have pulled through my two bio's without her....And earlier before she found this site I had Alex who I still keep in touch with. She is having twin boys.
What I'm trying to say is I am honored to have you to talk, cry, scream and be scared with.....Thank you. Linda

Hi Girls... I just want to add ( I have been a silent stucker for a while).... Devistated is this WebSite Angel!!! Without her support, her kindness, the right words at the right time I don't know what I would of have done after my two bio pregnancies and my recent BFN. I was ready to give up, but she pulled me back....I am doing an FET this month and she is holding my hand back again.

We are all in the same IVF journey, but Linda has the gift to be above and beyond with her sweet personality for us.... We also need to be there for her.....Thank you Linda for being my friend.... I am here for you as well always!!!

Hello ladies this site does make you feel warm inside it is so comforting with all of our words it just makes everything just easier to handle.  Pebbles yes I think the three of us will be trying during the same time or close.  My doctor says that when I get my period this month I will go see her and she will advise me on what meds to take to prepare my uterus for the frozen Embryos transfer.  It will be really nice if all four of us were pregnant at the same time and then we will all be talking about our prego experiences together.  I really hope God grants our wishes this time around I think we deserve it we have all definatly been through alot.  Me I have had an ectopic pregnancy and three miscarriages and one bio pregnancy with my first IVF.  My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for seven years now.  I had a Hysteroscopy removed scar tissue and a Polyp in my uterus.  Unclogged my tube I lost the left side with my ectopic pregnancy.  but all those heartaches and pains will all go away the day I have my baby in my arms.  As well as you guys our time is sure to come I believe God has our blessing on its way very soon. I love you ladies --lots and lots of baby dust your way.

to all the new ladies stay strong and God bless you.

Agini girl how are you?  Are you also going to have your embryos transferred in April sometime?  If yes god bless you and Good Luck I love you too.

As for the pregnant ladies keep eating healthy God bless you and your babies and enjoy this precious time be happy all the time enjoy this blessing.

Hello Ladies,

I just heard some bad news my result was negative, this didn't hit me yet, but I am sure later on it will, I am trying to be strong, but I am sure it will be hard, at least the nurse was nice enough to tell me sorry your result was negative, The nurse told me that they will schedule me for a follow up appointment the doctor will explain to me what happen do I really need to know yes, Anything that will give me information why it didn't work well help me in a long run.

I guess the reason why I am not having spotting or bledding becuase of my medication, the nurse told me to stop my medication and once that I stop my med I should soon start be bleeding. I will still think positive and keep going if this is what the god want for me right now then I will accept it, eventually one day he will granted me my wish..

Right now its is even hard to cried, I guess I am use of being dissapointment that this one is not new to me. As long that I can still do my IVF then I will continue to do it. I will probably rest for a while and I guess this is a good sign my husband will be in travel to TX and FL and maybe tagging along with him will be a good idea for vacation.

Thank you every one for all your support, Even if my IVF was not a success I will still continue staying on this forum, One day once that I start my next cycle I hope it will be a good one next time...

Hi
I am in a complete state of shock right now.Yesterday i took a HPT and it showed negative. I was totally shattered and lost all hopes. But my hubby was still optimistic and said sometimes HPT's shows wrong result.Today i went to the clinic in the morning for my PT with a broken heart and very very less hope. I got a call from the nurse around 12 saying congratulations you are pregnant.I didnt believed it for a while.She said though my levels are bit low at 35 but it is acceptable and she wants me to come for another test next friday and than ultrasound 15 days later.She didnt seemed concerned at all for the numbers and said it is within the acceptable range.I am feeling positive as for now that my beta numbers will be fine on the next test.Right now i dont want to think anything else but to enjoy this moment for which i had little hope and for which i have been waiting since long.

Congratulation with your positive result, I am praying for you to have a high number for your next test even if you only have a 35 beta number anything is possible and it could rise to more than double next time. Good Luck with your next test and lots of babydust for you.

Milly - thank you so much for your support and prayer, this is what I like about this site we can have a lot of support from some one you don't even know, we feel close to each other becuase of what we all go through. I will keep trying and not losing hope, like my husband said that one day it will be our turn, maybe just not our time for now. Thank god for him he keep me strong and be positive as always. Next cycle will be our 4th we will have to start a new cycle it would have been nice if we have embryo save, but the rest of them did not make it. I hope next time we will have more than we have last time.

Hi
Just wanted to share that i did HPT today (bought a test from dollar tree) and it showed 2 big pink lines.I was testing negative on Thursday with HPT but next day i had a positive beta .As beta was only 35 so my nurse told u might test positive on HPT with in 2 or 3 days and thats what happened. Is this a good sign and does it mean my numbers are increasing??
My next beta is on friday and my nurse didnt wanted to do it earlier as she said FET have lower beta as implantation may be late.So I am hoping everything will be fine with me on friday.Keeping fingers crossed.

Hi Jammyy- its look like your beta is increasing, if the number stay the same or getting lower you might have the same result as the first time you took the HPT, but if you took another HPT and it is now showing positive, then the number is probably rising now. I am crossing my finger for your next beta, just keep praying and take it easy as you know you now have little embies growing inside you. God bless, and list of babydust... and sticky vibe for you.......

Hi welcome to the site,

It is normal to have cramps after ET as long that you are not getting any red spotting.
Check the related discussions above - cramps after IVF days 5 transfer and waiting the 2ww we have more ladies on this site that can help you answer your question about the FET symptoms.

After my IVF ET I started to have cramps around 1-3 days then it was on and off. I also started having brown discharge, just incase you start getting that it is also normal.

Good Luck! with your test on Friday. Lost of babydust to you...

Good to hear that you have a positive result in HPT, Friday is almost there just keep your self busy, but don't work your self to hard, I know Thursday will be hard for you, but the hardest part will be that couple of hours wait after you blood test. I am keeping my finger cross for a heigh number.

I finally talked to the nurse yesterday, I think they do thiers a little different for thier patient, so far the information that I have from the nurse is on Thursday the doctor will get all the result for those people who have a faild cycle then he should be calling me on Friday to tell me my options and what to do next. I would rather see him along with my DH and talk to him personally, but I guess because the hospital here is a little different, some time we might not have that much choice. My DH and I will keep trying until it is our turn to have little one.

Good Luck to you Friday...sending you of lots of babydust.....

Wow, I'm flattered once again. Thank you and I'm never far away, I've been reading up on you guys. I'm trying to get mentally prepared for my next cycle. I should start meds for my frozen cycle around March 17th. and if all goes well and I get that wicked B on time, I'm looking at Beginning of April for transfer. It looks like we will be a week or so apart on our transfers....My doc is trying something new this time. Not sure what the plan is but no shots....yeah. I will be taking meds though, just no shots....woooooohoooooo.
I think it will be estrace pills. and then suppositories a few days before transfer.
I only have one little guy left so I need him to thaw. Just when you think the 2ww or Beta Hell is the most horrible thing "The THAW" comes along. Not like we have anything else to worry about right......?
But I am truly touched by your words and to be honest, I pull my strength from all of you. I will catch up with you later. (don't worry, I couldn't go away, I wouldn't make it without this board) Linda

Congratulation on your beta, the only reason probably why you have a low beta on the first one becuase maybe it was a late implanter wow it really went sky heigh the second time that is owesome... It is good that you are keeping your self busy, just remember though that now that you have a litte one inside you growing just make sure to take it easy don't over work your self too hard. When is your u/s? I am soooo happy for you.. I will keep praying for you, I know that you can't wait for you u/s time will go fast soon the long time wait was the 2wwk.

Just make sure to keep us posted.

hey girl how are you doing? as for me still doing good hanging in there I keep missing my doctor calls, she called me on Thursday, she said she will call me back again, but I guess she got busy, I call the office on Friday, but never got a call back so I am still waiting. We will be doing another cycle hoping soon if I can talk to my doctor, I am sure that they will be doing another test on me before I can even start, as always after my IVF I always get that pylop (not sure th speeling) so I am thinking that this time I might have it again and they will need to remove it too before I can start my IVF.

Good to hear that you will be doing your next cycle. Good Luck! it is good to hear that they will put two this time, they should have put two last time, but what do we know we are not a doctor we only do what they tell us. I will be praying for your next cycle.

I am so happy for you girl a late implanter wow that is great I really wish mine was a late inplanter I had a bio chemical preg. I have to admit when I heard your number 35 I first thought bio chemical I am sorry but I am new to this. This was my first IVF and I did not know what bio chem preg was all I can say is that you have been blessed and I wish God continues to bless you and you baby with each passing day take good care of yourself and my prayers are with you.

Thanks for your wishes. My ultrasound is on coming friday and I will keep You guys updated. Well regarding late implantation I didnt have any symptoms throughout my 2WW and the cramping came only two days before test date.I took HPT a day before my test and it was negative so i thaught its not going to work but was totally amazed to get a positive result.Than was bit tensed because of low numbers but God listened to my prayers and beta increased.I still dont know what difference it makes if it is a late implanter??Well its time to enjoy the pregnancy at the moment forgeting everything else.
Once again thanks for wishes....

Hi I just found this discussion and am totally new to web forums! I am on the 2ww day 6 after FET. Have had cramping on left side Day 2 & 3 and feel slight twinges today (day 6). After my first fresh transfer (3 months ago) I had terrible, terrible cramping from day 1 on then had massive bleed on day 10. Am so so nervous when it come to cramping as it means negative to me. Am I clutching at straws here or can it sometimes be ok.....

Hello!
Reading your posts have been a godsend. I had a tranfer on Thursday and am awaiting my pregnancy results to come this Sat. I don't know anyone else going through the same things I am, all of my friends have children. Finding this site and reading your posts is so reassuring and educational to hear people have cramps like I do. Reading your stories lets me know I'm not alone...So thanks from the bottom of my heart!

Hello,

we are never far away, just feeling kind of quiet....and preparing for the next battle...
So you did your baseline...Good, I am also doing a FET this time. I have one little "guy" that made it to day 6, so I'm feeling kind of excited. I had my baseline on Wed. and started to take estrace that same day. The projected date is April 14th for my FET...We might be close, within days for our transfers....Yeah....I'm sure when some of the other ladies start their cycles we will have some action on the boards......Talk to ya later.

hi dear good to hear from u,wow thats great u already had ur baseline U/S,thats goodlets pray hard together .hopefully now this is our time .so u r also doing FET,looks like this time u r doing with medicine not natural.iam doing natural.they ask me to go 4 2nd U/S on day10,then i have to start checking ovulation starting from day 9,then the day i ovulate they will decide iam scared becasue this is natural cycle so if my lining,& fsh level wont be enough they wont do my dear pary for me that i dont have to wait one more month.i was reading the old notes one of ur note u metioned too that u were doing accupuncture,r u still doing???r u planing to cotinue if u r doing???whats ur plan on transfer day r u gonna do acupuncture???
u know last week was very tough 4 me.i was hurt big time.my D/S brothers wife(elder bro) we me & heruse to share everything we live in one city,but she never shared her fertility problem with me thats ok but i knew it that she never had periods in her life,so she syart seeing dr same dr whom iam seeing,they started her cylce with all the medicines,she always says oh we dont get time too try this & that i have small small problems which iam trying fix this & that,as u know i did my 1st ivf in feb,she was doing her treatment at the same time not ivf but clomid ,HCG & all.she took all the information from me & i shared every info with her thinking that if in future she has ti go 4 ivf that will help her.then last sunday i had a dream that she cameover to my house to tell me that she is 1 month prego,so i mailed her next day about my dream ,she replyed me back that oh thats such a good dream i hope it come true soon.then same day evening she called she said she is close to our house can she come i said yes she showed up i knew it i knew it becasue when ever i dream about prego thing it happens & she said she is one month prgo with twins,i was so happy 4 her but at the same time i was so hurt i cryed cryed for 2days,i shared everything with her still she hide it to me till she got her U/S.still she is saying she concived naturaly ,& she also said she is still seeing my RE she will continue till 10weeks then normal gynec,if she concived naturaly y she is seeing RE u know.god sometimes does partiality.i felt so insulted becasue i was the one talking about baby ,pregnency,& all,& all that time she was going through the same but didnt say a word. i hope i didnt bhored u.iam still hurt.u know she was like my own sister to me but now i dont trust her.
anyways.takecare my dear.i hope god will help us this time.

Listen; about acupuncture, it is awesome, I never stopped. I started in November and I have gone faithfully each week. Even in between cycles. My guy does not use heat or any lamps. He uses a table and the room is heated. Oh and music. It is very relaxing. Honestly I would love it if he used heat on my belly I think it would be that much more comfortable. BUT I like it just the same. I will do anything that will help my chances for having a baby. He only does fertility patients and YES I have treatments the day of the transfer, two of them. One right before and one right after. Then I don't see him until 5 days later and then not until the preg. test. He will see pregnant women up until a certain point, I think it's through your first trimester...Not sure.
I could talk for hours about it, I love it.

I never tried a natural cycle before with frozen transfers. I had one frozen before.....I think it's cause I'm 37. How old are you? Does age have anything to do with natural vs. medicated? I know how scary it is for you wondering if your lining will be plump enough. My last frozen cycle, It took a little extra work to get my lining where it needed to be. The other day when I had an u/s it was like 4.6 (I think) and I was at the end of my period, so I go back on Wed to see if it got thicker....

I have an opinion on your sister in law......I hope you don't mind.
During my last Frozen Transfer I did not tell my family I was doing it. We made the mistake of telling them the fresh one before and it was that much more hurtful when I had to tell them it failed. So anyway we decided not to tell anyone about the frozen attempt. My mother died in 1999 so when she died my older sister and I became closer. She asked me if I was in another cycle and I lied to her and said no....(BUT I was in my 2ww) I felt like I might have jinxed myself. I was distraught over lying to her. I can't explain why, I just didn't want to talk about it with anyone. (who didn't know what I was going through) Now the crappy part of the story is, My husband told his sister we were doing this and she ran into my sister and they talked about it and my sister called me that night and asked me again, I lied to her again.......Now I was sure I was doomed...I told her my husbands sister didn't know what she was talking about..(we really never talk to the husbands side of the family; we are closer to my family so she believed me)
I can' tell you why I kept the lie but I did and I felt like an A hole. So my point is maybe she and her husband wanted to keep it to themselves until they were out of the woods and maybe she felt funny telling you because it worked for her and not for you....You never know what people think, Everyone handles IVF different and sometimes it might not seem right for you but it is right for the other person.....Try not to take it personal. I'm sure they didn't say "LETS NOT TELL YOU" I think it was something that they chose to do as a couple who were scared of the outcome. Try and remember we all handle this different...........Please don't be upset......I hope I helped you even if it was just a little.....Talk to ya later.

Hello dear,

I am still here I still read the post all the time, I just don't have that much news yet. Yes I was able to talked to my doctor, we might be doing our IVF around July, I would like to do it sooner, but our schedule will be hectic on April, May and June, my D/H will be going to FL for conference, then on May we will be going for my niece gradutation in new orlens I am so proud of her she will be graduating collage she is graduating from Exevier, then on June my D/H will be gone again for business trip to Australlia for two weeks so July will be our month. My doctor told us that we can freeze his sperm, but he rather be here for me.

I will probably schedule my baseline sonogram around May when I am close to the July cycle. I am kind of scared, becuase every IVF cycle I had I end up with pylop all the time, I know this time I have it again and they will have to remove it first before they start my new cycle. My doctor told me they will keep me with the same medecine, I was more concern of the emboryo that they transfer to me though, I ask my doctor about the quality of my embreyo, becuase they transfer 4 embreyo, but it was all 6 cells, so I ask her that maybe that was the reason why it didn't work and she kind of agree with me that it is possible. I ask her about the 5 day transfer, she saild that they only way they normally do the 5 days transfer only if have 10 embreyo that firtelized, they could have done it the first time, but what do we know they are the doctor they said that the two embreyo was good and they have the change. I hope next time I have enough embreyo and a better embreyo than the last time.

Good luck with your next cycle, I will be praying for you...

Hello,
Good to hear from you. I had a lining check last Wed and it was at 5 so the doc upped my meds and I go back for a re check on Tuesday. I'm doing frozen so the follie size doesn't get measured. But I counted and I think I saw like 11 follies....I have no idea the sizes on them. My lining was a 5 at 7 days into the meds. and I started the meds after my period.....I don't know much on how fast your lining should plump up so I'm guessing it was OK. I did not see the doc because he was at a conference sooooo, I'll have to wait until this week to talk to him. My acupuncturist said it was good. I think my doc likes it to be 8 or greater for transfer....Do you know anything about lining sizes...?
I pay 70$ for my IVF he is a fertility specialist and he doesn't give breaks...Although my last Bio chemical he gave me a free treatment the day in between my blood tests........That was nice of him, he said it wouldn't help or hurt my chances but it would calm me down and it did.....
Keep me posted this week on your next steps.....Talk to ya

Agini- did you do your FET yet how is everything doing? as for me I have to cancel my seline sonogram. I though my MS was coming, but then it was just spotting I am still waiting for my MS to completely come, then I will re schadule my sonogram. I can't wait to do my next cycle, hoping to do it by July, but I have to find out if my sonogram is ok. Yeah I hear that the core on the pineapple is good for inplantation (implantation) as long that you don't eat too much.

Good Luck ! Ladies, sending a prayers again to both of you.

AHHHHHH, I'm glad to hear the transfer went well...How many did you transfer...
I hear you on the coldness.....I thought it was weird for me...I don't ever remember feeling so cold and shivering before...
How many days bed rest do you do? I usually do two to three.
Was your bladder full for your transfer? Didn't you have to pee during the transfer?
How do you fill your bladder before the transfer? My instructions were empty bladder 2.5 to 3 hrs. before transfer and immediately start drinking water 1 to 1.5 liters up until 1 hr. before transfer....I've done it that way 4 other times (in the beginning) and it was always the hardest thing for me....The last two transfers my acupuncturist told me to guzzle the water 1/2 hr. before transfer.....The instructions were so different that I didn't know who to believe so last time I chanced it and guzzled 5 8oz cups of water on my way out the door to meet with the acupuncture and I had to pee while on the table...towards the end.....and then really bad during transfer...THIS TIME I drank same amount of water and did it on the way to my RE's office....(He is only 10 mins. away) So I was good. I got there at like 11:15 and my transfer was at 12:00 so 45 min for my bladder to fill up and good lord it did....
What a horror story about your ride home....I would have cried too...It is so hard to hold your pee in with a full bladder.
OK my 2ww friend...I'll check on you later...

Hey, Unfortunately I am well aware of why they need a full bladder, I made the mistake one time and emptied it 1hr. before transfer and kept drinking up until transfer and it wasn't full. The RE treated me like a teenager who just got caught smoking or lying. I felt like such an a s s. That's why I am so anal when it comes to drinking my water before transfers. I CRIED so hard after that transfer because I thought I ruined everything....So that is just a personal fear of mine.....FULL BLADDER. LOL
Ok I feel nothing so far...I do have this wicked a s s cold and I refuse to take anything for it.
I'm not comparing this transfer to any others with what I'm feeling or not feeling...
I think you might have had that pain in your lower abdomen because of the transfer. My acupuncturist told me that with blasts transfers you should feel something within a day or a day and a half.....I honestly don't know what to think because feeling nothing has been proven to be a good sign and feeling tugging, sharp, stretching pain for a few seconds on and off can be something....I guess we will just have to wait...When is your blood test....Should be around the 24th right? I have officially one more week to go.... I love frozen transfers because you can test earlier.....
Have a wonderful two days complete rest and keep warm...(keep your feet warm)
Think positive and I'll catch up with you later..

Hi, What is moxa? I never heard of that.
You said you are on medrol right? how long do you stay on that for.
I remember taking that before but I don't know why. This time I'm on estrace only....I've been on it since day one of my period. I know it is supposed to help thicken your lining. That was the only meds for this cycle except the progesterone. I'm on inserts and shots...OUCH. Any tips on the progesterone shots...They hurt so bad? We tried a few tips, one keeping the oil warm before the injection....It helped a little. Last night I cried so hard when hubby did it.....The other tip is spreading the skin apart with fore finger and thumb.....then sticking the needle in....
Talk to ya later 2ww partner....P.S. I've been reading the other forums....Way to busy. How do those girls keep up...? I just thank god these forums are available to us...

moxa is a stick ,i dont know kind of herbel stick looks like cigar,u have to light that & u have to use the heat in perticular points which helps ur body warm.yes iam taking only medrol,it is anticouglent,it helps not to clot the blood & helps from infection,they didnt give me any estrogen or proge----med they said its a ntural cycle so what ever my body produce thats all i can have.about progest injec i never had pain problem what i use to do when my hubby use to prepare injection i put this ice bag on the spot where we have to take shot i use to press realy hard with the ice bag when he say he is ready to give inje at that time i use to remove ice bag & as soon as he gave inje i use to use heating pad 4 couple of min i never had problem try it b4 inj ice after injection haet it works.

Hey, a tip for your headaches...I get nasty ones also...almost migraine like...so what I do is put an ice pack on my head...I swear by it...The soft ice packs. Try it if you can. For me it numbs the head and I don't feel the headache anymore. I even fall asleep with them on my head. The best thing I've ever done without taking any meds....Good luck with that.. Talk to ya later

Hey,
I was admitted to the hospital on Monday night for possible pneumonia and I was discharged today...I have a severe case of bronchitis...I was in a lot of pain Monday night. I couldn't breathe and my chest hurt from coughing.
The ER wanted to do an x-ray but I talked them into giving me a blood and urine pregnancy test first...BOTH negative...I was so destroyed...
I called my RE from the hospital and they said it could be too early...
What do you think, could it be....? I was thinking it was only two days early if I was pregnant it would be a definite positive on the blood test.....
Anyway I go tomorrow to test again....I'm scared. This is my last shot at IVF and I had a good feeling about this little frostie of mine...
I have no symptoms. How about you? ANYTHING? Drop me a line when you get a chance.
