I tried to leave everyone a note about the new thread - sorry if I missed anyone.

Michelle: Please don't stop posting here... We are all here to give support, help, and listen to anyone :-) I'm sorry things are so tough, but it's completely understandable...We all love you and are here for you...

Luvkayln: Good luck with your trigger tonight - you're going to have some fat follies!!!

Mommyin09: I don't know how you keep track of everyone lol.... Good luck at your appt. today!!

Pyar: Good luck with IVF, sounds good!!!!

Everyone: This is a new year - we are all in store for BFP's with healthy, full term pregnancies :-) By the end of the year, all of us who are on CD or DPO, we WILL be added to the BFP list...

Good morning everyone!

I'm cd16 today and starting to feel better finally.  I am still pretty sick, but it's getting better instead of constantly getting worse.  DH and I talked a lot last night about the house and he's being a jerkface.  He wants to put a bid in...but not today.  Today my boss is out of the office all day so I could slip out for a little bit and go with him and put a bid in. I can't do that on a normal day.  Ugh!!!  So I don't know what he expects.  He said he's just not ready.  I think we're going to lose the house.  But we'll see.  I'll be sure to keep you all posted.

Also, we made some decisions about our TTC process.  I'm on round 2 of clomid and I only have 1 more scheduled.  My doctor wants to put me on 9 MONTHS of Metformin after next month (if I don't get pregnant).  I don't think I'll get pregnant on Metformin alone.  But at the same time, I think that DH and I need a little break.  So what we MIGHT do is go on Metformin alone for a month, maybe two to give us a break.  And then I think I want to ask her if we can do a few more rounds of clomid ON TOP of the Metformin. I've heard of a lot of people who take both.  We may go ahead and go to an RE before this, but that's the next step we want to take. Before injections or IUI or anything like that.  And to be quite honest, we can't afford injections or IUI's.  Not right now.  So.... we'll just have to play that by ear.  

luvkayln- Girl I've missed you!! I feel like I haven't talked to you in ages.  How are you?

stacey- I'm so glad everything went well.  It's going to be a great 9 months for you!!! Well, technically more like 7 1/2 months!

nikki- Hey girl!   So P emailed me yesterday and was a total sweetheart.  It was the weirdest thing.  He appologized for everything and went on to say that he thought I was perfect for Richard and that he was so happy for us and all this other stuff. It was so weird.  He wants to come visit sometime. I don't know...I still don't know that I trust him.  But maybe he really is trying to be a better person. We'll just have to see.   I'm having a TON of ovulation symptoms.  I have some ovulation pain, although nothing like last month. I really don't think that we'll get pregnant this month.  I really don't. I have a really negative attitude towards it for some reason. I dont' know.  At least I'm not stressing out about it this month. I sure did last month!!  How's the tww going?

PS: They transferred 2 ..ET:1/10/09 (1-2A 5-cell & 1-3A 8-cell..NO FRAGMENTATION!!)
1/13/09 - Est-273....Prog-71.9--lining 11hh....told "Everything Looks Great!!"

[angelbaby_09]

Thanks girls ~ BW Results Last go-round: EST-698-/- PROG- 53-/-Lining 12 IEHH

Questions asked: "What does it mean when your lining coverts?" They want the Progesterone above 30 with US - and after transfer it changes to an hh pattern. -/- Medication adjustment: no -/- Able to drink Green Tea decaf? Yes - actually can have under 12oz caffeine a day. -/- Can I go back to acupuncturist? Most acupuncturists wont see you once you are potentially pregnant..there are ways that they actuallly do abortions with acupuncture because it redirects bloodflow throughout the body.

This time the ##'s are alot better - and other than my newly-found KISS addiction (Dark Chocolate)...(compliments of Mandell's Pharmacy sending all the meds in a box full of dry ice and bags of Kisses)...I've not had any real symptoms.  I am now 4DPT.

The chart info I have is:
3-DAY TRANSFER:
1dpt ..embryo is growing and developing
2dpt... Embryo is now a blastocyst
3dpt....Blastocyst hatches out of shell on this day
4dpt.. Blastocyst attaches to a site on the uterine lining
5dpt.. Implantation begins,as the blastocyst begins to bury in the lining
6dpt.. Implantation process continues and morula buries deeper in the lining
7dpt.. Morula is completely inmplanted in the lining and has placenta cells & fetal cells
8dpt...Placenta cells begin to secret HCG in the blood
9dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
10dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
11dpt...HCG levels are now high enough to be immediately detected on HPT

5-DAY TRANSFER:
-1dpt ..embryo is growing and developing
0dpt... Embryo is now a blastocyst
1dpt....Blastocyst hatches out of shell on this day
2dpt.. Blastocyst attaches to a site on the uterine lining
3dpt.. Implantation begins,as the blastocyst begins to bury in the lining
4dpt.. Implantation process continues and morula buries deeper in the lining
5dpt.. Morula is completely inmplanted in the lining and has placenta cells & fetal cells
6dpt...Placenta cells begin to secret HCG in the blood
7dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
8dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
9dpt...HCG levels are now high enough to be immediately detected on HPT

Good Morning ladies =)

Mrspace: How are you feeling today? Any sign of O yet? DH got an e-mail back from K with him saying he didn't think he sent him any X stuff - what a loser lol...

Angelbaby: You only have a week left until your beta!! Any symptoms? Good Luck!!

Luvkayln: How are you doing? Do you have any symptoms?

Mommyin09: You have just over a week until your beta.... =) How are you doing?

Hannah: I hope you either get your BFP this time or AF just hurries up and gets here... Did the docs have any answers for you?

I'm getting nervous to test.... bbs still hurt - mainly the right one, headaches off and on the past couple of days. I don't know what to think - I wish those stupid progesterone supp, didn't have any side effects lol!  When do you ladies think I should test? My CBE monitor says I'm getting close to AF - last month I had a 28 day cycle and I think I'm CD25 today...?
Have a great day everyone!!

Hugs, Love, and SSBD =)
