Aa
We are Women, Hear us Roar...
...in numbers too big to ignore, and I know too much to go back an' pretend,
'cause I've heard it all before, and I've been down there on the floor. No one's ever gonna keep me down again.
Oh, yes, I am wise, but it's wisdom born of pain. Yes, I've paid the price, but look how much I gained.
If I have to, I can do anything.
I am strong (strong)!
I am invincible (invincible)!
I am woman!
You can bend, but never break me 'cause it only serves to make me more determined to achieve my final goal.
And I come back even stronger, not a novice any longer, 'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul.
I am woman, watch me grow. See me standing toe to toe, as I spread my lovin' arms across the land.
But I'm still an embryo, with a long, long way to go, until I make my brother understand.
Oh, yes, I am wise, but it's wisdom born of pain.
Yes, I've paid the price, but look how much I gained.
If I have to, I can face anything.
I am strong (strong)!
I am invincible (invincible)!
I am woman!

Good morning! I loved the song, how very inspirational!! :)
Well, bad news ladies, bfn last night and this morning! I'm truely shocked, but last night's -ve prepared me for this morning's -ve. I was very, very upset last night. But i'm ok now, i'm just ready for af to show so i can start my last round of clomid before i move on to injections. My temp also dropped this morning, and i woke up with really bad cramps, so i'm sure af will show any moment. I want to truely thank you all for the amazing support you all have given me over this last week. I talked to the nurse last night and asked her if i'm not pregnant, what was the brown spotting all about. And she said your hormones are all over the place in the luteal phase, so it could just be from that. She said we may never know what it was from. That was reassuring, not! I'm not really sure what she meant by that, all i know is i'm ready to get this next cycle rollin'! Talk to you all soon!!

mommyin09: Love the song and the new name. I went to the dr yesterday and I go back on the 24th of this month.
Joyce: I didnt get a picture of the little bean this time. I guess the lady figured I didnt want one since nothing was really different except that it was a lot bigger. I will definately be getting the ones from the next appt and posting them.
I guess the best thing out of my whole appointment yesterday was when my doctor said, yep your definately pregnant. I mean I knew I was but I guess it just made me feel better when she said it since she was the one that thought I could be having a chemical pregnancy. The next two weeks are going to be so LONG!
Do you think having 3 different sonograms in the same month will hurt anything? Im a little nervous about it... but I wouldnt think my doctor would do it if it would hurt anything.
Im going to have to figure out how to tell my Big Boss that Im pregnant... then try to get it out of her if she is going to pay me for maturnity leave... one of the girls in the office said I shouldnt count on it. I really jsut need to know bc if not, we are really going to have to start pinching pennies since my checks are the ones that pay the morgage and the bills to the house(water, elect. etc.). I dont think there is any way that DH would be able to work enough over time hours to compensate for my checks, plus then he wouldnt really get to spend any time with the baby bc he would either be at work or in bed.

Im so sorry for your bfn. I really dont know what to say.. or what the spotting could have been about. Im glad you are staying positive. Keep your head up, we are here for you!
We already messaged each other, but I'm just so sorry things didn't go as we all thought they would! :( I was so sure this was it & I'm sorry your hopes were up. You are so strong, my friend! Hang in there :)
Thanks for looking at my chart. I had slight cramping last night and a ton off and on so far today. I had pinkish Cm this am, I guess the temp drop explains that. I think full flow will be here tonight or in the am. Normally, AF just shows up. But, the last few cycles she has arrived like this. I am worried about the length of my LP. \
Luvkayln - I am sorry to hear your news. Keep us up to date. If this isn;t your month, we can be cycle buddies. I should be starting again also. I am thinking of you!
Mommyin09 - I love the poem and the thread title!

I am really sorry....it is really frustrating when stuff happen to us and we CAN'T get an answer, it really *****...........again I am really sorry this wasn't IT, we need to keep strong and hope it happens soon, BECAUSE IT WILL HAPPEN, Beleive it!
Mommyin09 - Wow, it is nice and very apropriate, thanks for the new thread!
Rachjas: when you go back to your doc, let him know about the short LP, the good thing about AF is that now you get a chance to start a new fresh cycle!

Okay, now I'll play catch-up :)
kmcarino: I don't know anything about your disorder, but I'll look it up after I post. I'm sorry, I'm sure the decision to reduce is not an easy one for you!
rachjas: When I first started ttc, my luteal phase was only 9 days & that's when I was put on progesterone suppositories. They increased my luteal phase quite a bit & with them and clomid, my lp is now 15+ days. Since you said you didn't O from the proper side this time, I'm sure you're okay with it this cycle, but you should mention it to your doc & maybe they'll test your progesterone.
Arlotheslug: What do you mean you'll go in for baseline? Do you mean bloodwork? Sorry, I'm still trying to understand it all! :)
Arlo, Guesito, Candie & Keyan: Yes, Thanksgiving seems the most appropriate time to spill the beans & I don't feel any pressure 'cause we've decided to tell our families either way; that we're ttc or that we got our bfp. Hopefully we can tell them we got a BFP, but just telling them at all will be a huge relief! :)
Keyan: Thanksgiving will be our parents (two sets on dh's side) and his two sisters. My sister & her family are out of state, so we won't see them.
Candie: Woo-Hoo!!! Isn't it great to be 1dpo!? :)
Joyce: Yes, that is a crazy dream! You're probably concerned about your problems in your fifth month, so it's understandable that you'd dream about something like that. I agree, let your doc know your concerns.
Mamatina: I hope you get great results! Keep us posted :)
Jessie: I'm sure hearing that everything's a-ok is a huge relief! Sounds like things are going well :)

Just a quick note before lunch! . . . I LOVE THE NEW NAME!
Luvkayln: I am really sorry that AF is coming. I was really hoping this would be the one . . . as Kenyan said - stay strong . . .
Candie: Congratulations!!!! 1 dpo . . . . ;-)
mommyin09: baseline is a follicle count pre-drugs and to check my hormones . . . so they know that they are giving me the right level of meds. Normally it is on CD3, but for some reason they want me to do it tomorrow - which may end of being CD1 at best (I had some slight spotting). To be frank, I have to check with them in the am . . . might be part of the new protocol . . .
Rachjas: I agree with mommyin09 - my luteul phase has grown through my TTC treatments - but you should also mention it to your Dr - there are many options!
Happy Veteran's Day (I forgot to add this am).

So sorry about the bfn. I have been thinking about you.
I am 11dpiui, and waiting for test Friday. Trying to keep busy

Oh no...I was so sure. All the signs were there. I can hardly believe it. I'm so so sorry. I think we were all so convinced. Hope you are doing ok and all you can do is go on to the next cycle and stay strong. Until she shows there is stil some hope....
luvkayln.....i agree with stacey until af shows there is still hope....you could still be one that doesnt show a high enough hcg level til later on. i know it doesnt make sense but it is very possible. until the red headed monster =) shows her face there is still hope, i still have everything crossed for you.
ok i know i have been going back and forth with doctors for the last month, but it is hard to decide whether to go to a new doctor that really didnt impress me or to go to a doctor that i KNOW but is 2 hour drive away. Well i went to my general surgeon today because of my incisional hernia, and she thinks that she can do a good job of sewing me up after my c-section so that i dont need the mesh that they use. the mesh can get infected very easily when used after a c-section so she is gonna do some research and let my doctor up here know. so i guess since i absolutely adore the general surgeon and i want her to do my repair then i will have to go to the doctor up here...which means once again my doctor appts get changed (mommyin09 sorry)...so my next OB appt will be 11/18....and i will have to cancel my appt with my regular OB because face it ladies my insurance is not going to cover my going to 2 doctors. They will cover it for the first month cause i can say it was a second opinion, but they are not going to continue to do so. but i will keep everyone posted and hopefully the day that i saw him last month was just a off day and he will be a more personable person next week. boy it seems like the weeks are flying by....will be 11 weeks along on saturday...wow
good luck to all, stay strong and know that you are thought about daily.
MOMMYIN09.....the song and title of the thread ROCKS very appropriate and inspiring.

luvkayln- AF is such a beast. but you have the right thought. move forward to the next month. Yeah your nurse was very re-assuring.....NOT. i love how they say things like that and think that is helps us in any way shape or form.
well ladies touching base. i have been so busy at work trying to prepare for an annual audit. i will hopefully have time later on to write notes to each one of you. But for now i am thinking about you all.
Also welcome to all the new-bees. This is the greatest forum you will find. All of these women are wonderful and so supportive.

Ok heres another song I thought you guys might like...Makes me cry when I hear it.
Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
And our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understand
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we know we could
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who know what miracle
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I am standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say
They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see you way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
There can be miracles
Just believe
You will when you
Believe
Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
And our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understand
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we know we could
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who know what miracle
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I am standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say
They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see you way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
There can be miracles
Just believe
You will when you
Believe
Arlotheslug: I do remember you didn't respond well to the meds last time, so maybe they're starting earlier to make sure you get just the right cocktail! :) Good luck tomorrow. I look forward to hearing how it goes!
Joyce: No problem! I'll change your appt date tomorrow morning. It's good for you to stick with the right doctor for you!
luvkayln: I'm thinking of you & hoping you're doing okay. I know you expect AF, but the ladies are right. It's not over till... Take care !
Guesito: Beautiful words! We all do have to believe. One day it will happen for each of us! :)
leighanne: Sorry you're so swamped at work. I've been off for a week now & I'm loving it... but I'll be back in the grind tomorrow. Did you see there are new options for your home page background? I thought of you 'cause there's a blue one with a toy train :)
Thanks for all the positive comments on my pics! :)
I'm glad everyone is happy with the name!

Mommyin09 - Great song and great name.Very fitting for this group of fine strong ladies! Congrats on your progesterone results...that sounds very promising! How was the Lakers game??
Luvkayln - I am still holding out hope for you!!!!!!
Arlotheslug - Just ask questions and understand what they have planned for you. Hopefully it makes sense, and if it doesn't, ask again! I have to think that any adjustment is due to the response you had last time. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
Guesito - Very nice song...thanks for posting. I hope you are feeling more positive. I can imagine your frustration when you found out they only froze 3 embryos. You are getting throught the 2ww though. I'm hoping you can start us IVF ladies off with a nice BFP!!!!
Jessie - Congrats on a great appt!!! I can imagine it was a big relief! It's good to start planning all of the financial stuff now. How much time would you take off?
So I finally go back to the RE on Monday. I'll be finished the bcps and go for u/s and get my next set of drugs. These weeks are dragging for me. And today, a really amazing job opportunity was presented to me and I had to say thanks but no thanks. I'm in no position to start a new job...even though it is a great time to leave my company and take such a good opportunity. But, I'm hoping to get my bfp in December so I don't think my new employer would appreciate that!
Have a great evening everyond and SSBD to all!!!

I was sure that you were pregnant like the other woman on here. I am so sorry for such a disappointment. I am glad to hear that your spirits are up and you are ready to try again.
Ok, got FSH levels back, my RE said they were still high, 67.5, and its up to me to decide what to do. Well DUH!!!! I guess I am just gonn astay on BC for a few months a go back for another FSH check then. Still cant be right. ANYWAY--------I am gonna throw away 60 bottles of fertility meds half Follistim & half Repronex, SSSSOOO.................if any of you know any one who NEEDS them let me know!! I HATE the idea of just "tossing " them out!! Have a good evening and talk to ya'll soon!!!
stacy: Well the baby would have to go to daycare and they cant start going until they are at least 6 weeks old. So I would say 6-8 weeks, roughly 2 months. My mom did mention that she would be off on summer vacation so she could watch the baby while I went back to work. Im sorry but I would like to have so bonding time with my baby. DH told me not to worry about it and that he would figure something out.
So I was talking to biomoms sister today and apparently she wasnt going to call tonight bc she didnt feel like crying. BUT if I called in the morning, that she wanted Heather to wake her up so she could to to ME. Why in the world would she want to talk to me. Does she really think I feel sorry for her and will have any compasion? I really dont think so. She is the one that threw them away over a year ago and never looked back and I have been the one that was there to take care of them and wipe their tears. I have no sympathy for someone that puts on a big show telling everyone that she is the mother of the year when she doesnt even check on the kids she gave birth too. She just makes me sick. People like her shouldnt be able to have kids when there are so many women that would die to have a baby but cant.
Sorry for that rant. It did make me feel better after I got it out. Thanks for listening. I know its not yalls problem.
I hope everyone has a great night. SSBD to all!

mommyin09- i have the little ducks with the green back round on mine. i think they are so cute. I love having time off of work but after i few days i start to get bored. There is only so much cleaning you can do around the house before you start to run out of things to do. Unless i take days off and go somewhere, i am bored fast. I have to look at your pics now, i did not know you posted anything new.
Took a HPT this am and got a BFN. I go in for the official test Friday and will hear then what my next steps are. This was a really tough month-I did not know what to expect at all, and I am very suprised how all of these meds really trick with your body.
I will be more prepared for round 2 iui after this. Guess I will induldge in wine this weekend.

Stacey: Hey, sorry about the job offer! I know you were worried about layoffs back in the summer, so I'm sure that was a tough, but smart call. I can't believe you're already going in on Mon for your next round of meds, that's so exciting! :) The Laker game was so much fun :) The VIP box makes all the difference; great view, great food catered all throughout the game & there were about 18 of us in the room. Plus, they won! :) How's the squirrel situation?
kmcarino: Best wishes today !!! :)
leighanne: The ducks are adorable, too! :) We have a lot of "stuff" going on at home, so with a week off, I could not get bored!!! I go back today...
Jessie: I believe your employer is required to give you time off, but that you'd get paid based on the sick/vacation time you have available to you. It may be different at your workplace, but that's the understanding I have.
wishandaprayer: Sorry about the bfn! :( Hang in there & see what your beta shows on Friday.
mamatina: Sorry about your fsh levels still being high. Hopefully staying on bcp's another month or two will bring them down even more.
luvkayln: How are you doing?

Hi everyone! Just got back from the Dr. and waiting for the results - as I told DH, I refuse to get excited this time b/c I don't want to fall too hard (I know I have to be positive - just having a hard time - found out another person is pg - this is what I like to call the start of the second wave - first was right when we got married - 5 pg - this wave is the "book club" wave - 2 woman and their good friend (3), as well as someone DH works with (4) . . .). Anyway, the tech said everything looked ok - but have to wait for the Dr. UG! DH says he will be positive for the both of us. So, enough of me . . .
Wishandaprayer: I am really sorry about the BFN . . . you don't know - I know it is hard, but please hold out some hope for Friday - I will keep you in my thoughts.
Leighanne: Sorry work has been so busy, but I know what you mean about not working. I must admit (however) that a week off like Mommyin09 - **** nothing sounds awesome right now . . . it has been really busy here. Hopefully I will be off Thanksgiving week.
Jessie: I hope you are feeling better.
Guesito and Mommyin09: I love the poems - they brought me up a bit last night . . . Thank you. Guesito - start the BFP for us IVFrs!
Mamatina: I wish I knew a use for the drugs . . . I am sorry the news is not what you wanted - I hope it goes better.
Stacey: I know about the dragging weeks - believe me! You will be there soon enough and then it will go very quickly! I am sorry you were not able to take the job - but really cool you got the offer!
I will let you know what I hear from the DR - have to carry the cell phone around all day -
Happy Wednesday!
