401! My Beta is 401! I am so happy! I asked my coordinator if there is a possibility of twins. Her reply was "oh ya." I will have two more BETAs one on Sat and one on Monday.
I really want to thank you all for keeping me sane and encouraged during this time! You are all gems!!

Kristen- She said it was possible, not that it IS twins. You really can't tell with BETAs. There might be an indication, but not a definite!
You'll be fine either way.
I am so hoping it is twins for us!
Kay

Kay, I'm tickled absolutely pink for you! Wooohoooo! (Twins, twins, twins!)


BD, (is it Bethany?) two more days until your IVF, right? You're in my prayers for success and immense fertility. This is very exciting.

Hi all. I'm hoping not to bring a bummer mood to such an exciting board right now. But I'm feeling absolutely miserable. I just flew back from Phoenix, right behind a couple travelling with their 2 month old twins (while I treated myself to People magazine, of course filled with glamorous pregnant women). The babies on the plane were adorable, and travelled really well. But I spent the entire time fighting back tears. Then when the mom caught my eye, I only half-smiled, thinking "she's getting constant well-wishes for her lovely family; she doesn't need more of it from me!" Wow, I felt like a really b*tch, and now I'm worried that I don't know how to be happy for people anymore.

I have to say, I'm feeling ready for my estrogen shot tonight if it's going to help get the lupron crazies out of me. I'm going this weekend to LA to visit friends who have a newborn boy. I need to be in a better space than this to get through that.

Thanks for letting me vent. B

Lia - Thanks for thinking of me! I'm getting closer, but not quite 2 days. My donor starts stims on Saturday, and ET is tentatively set for 3/24. Only 3 weeks away. So close but yet so far . . . .
