Michelle - I'm so sorry!

[yolieight]

Wow, today has been a crazy day at work...

Michelle-I haven't experienced any bleeding while on estrace but possibly they could increase your dosage? Hopefully, the U/S will still show a nice thick lining.

Irena-I have been thinking about you, I know how hard it had to be wondering if you went from one to two and then maybe back to one. I'm so happy that you have 2 healthy beans!

latlasan-good luck on your beta tomorrow.

Michelle-I'm so sorry for your loss, I can't believe that we have had 2 ladies in this thread that their embyros haven't made the thaw. I was never really worried about my thawing just sticking. I'm worried now. I wish you all the best in the future.

Hi Ladies, just checking-in on everyone. THANK YOU for all the prayers and well wishes. You guys are a really special group. I am hanging in here today and things seem to be better. Each day will get easier as we decide what path to move forward on. I am just going to take some time to rest/relax and enjoy the fall of the year. Thanks for letting me in the group. I will keep in touch... Best wishes to all!!!!!!!!!!!

Yolanda - Don't sweat the thaw. Though it can be stressful, we had 4 snow babies and 3 made it through the blast. So you should have at least a couple good ones to ET. You'll be in my prayers.

Hello, I'm new here, and I am looking forward to getting you know you all!

I am doing my first FET on October 15th. I'm currently on BCP, and I'm starting Lupron on Monday. We have seven frozen embryos, so seven chances for success. I think I am only going to put back one, since I'm not sure I could handle another set of twins!

Haven't read all of the posts, but hi to everyone, and good luck with all of your transfers!

hi ladies, i have been lurking here quite a bit and just nw ended up with a question! we are 5 dp FET we used 3dp frozen embies (8cell, grade B~ 6cell, grade B-C and a 4cell, grade B-C). well i have begun having some cramping that feels like AF but slightlly different. i also feel it in my upperr thighs and legs,, a little in the back. i remember feeling this way during my first pregnancy, but not this early on! i am htinking this is *normal* but just thought i'd look for some feedback from those who know best! also my main question, have any of you experienced lower progesterone and estrogen levels at this stage of the game than your RE was happy with? i got the call yesterday to increase my prog. in oil and estrace intake. *not to worry* is what they said but of course,i worry.
thanks so much !!!!

No bleeding for me today, but I'll still have that ultrasound on Wednesday to check things out.

Hi girls!

OMG! I can't believe all the pregnant ladies! You guys keep my hopes up! Triplets, twins, wow! It is so exciting!

So my FET dat is 8/12. I start my PIO on Monday. Ugh. I hate them so much. They hurt. I really don't know what to do with my emotions. I went back to school Thursday, and a few of my collegues are prego, I have come to find out. It's hard. I keep telling myself that I am going to be the one that everyone knows as the person who couldn't get pregnant. Errrr. It is hard to stay positive, when negative comes so easy these days.

Jill-I am so sorry about your news. Keep forging ahead as much as you can. Things will only get better.

Yolie-I am scheduled three days after you! Exciting! I hope we both have good news in a week or two!

Linz-I glad you are doing well. We are all in the same boat. That is for sure.

Congrats!!!!!

[razorbackgirl]

Hey all,
I was on the old thread but needed to take a break from all this for awhile. I would like to join back up it that's alright. I finally started meds at the end of August but that cycle was cancelled and I started on the next cycle with injectable estrogen instead of patches. I go for an ultrasound on the 18th and if everyting looks good, transfer on the 24th. Has anyone else done the injectable estrogen? I did not feel really moody or emotional on any of the other drugs but I fell like this one is making me crazy. Anyone else experience this? Anyway, congrats to all those with BFP and my fingers are crossed for those of you waiting for transfer!!!

[Linz712]

Rosie!
Emirose- sorry I don't have an answer to your question- my RE doen't check levles mid 2ww- but I hope it's a good sign! I think there may be a few girls who have done that and it was a good thing!
back Razorbackgirl! Sounds loike you're on your way. I haven't done the injectible estrogen- but I think someone else here has- hopefully they can answer your question. I hate the patches- so was hoping for the injectible- but maybe not! Hope you're feeling better. My tansfer is teh 25th- so we're real close!

Irena- your u/s pics are beautiful! I can't believe how big they are already!

KimiC- I know exactly how you feel- is everyone in teh world preggo except us?? Fells that way sometimes. Keep staying positive- this is your cycle- your transfer is on my birthday- hope it's lucky!

Casb77- I'm so relieved your bleeding stopped. that all is okay on your u/s and for a smooth transfer.

Ryan- keep us posted- when do you see the caridologist?

[Martieroo]

09/09 is our first US!

We get to see what is going on -

I am so excited and yet so nervous!

I am just hoping and praying that everything is fine with our baby/babies!

Razorgirl - I've been doing the injectible estrogen - once every three days since Aug. 16th. The first week or so, I was suffering from terrible headaches.....but since about a week before my transfer, the headaches seemed to disappear. I don't think I was (am) very emotional from the meds (although my DH may disagree ;-)
Hang in there - hopefully, your body will get adjusted to the meds and the side effects will lessen. Are you doing injections every day? I am on .2 ml of delestrogen once every 3 days.

Crzy4twins – Welcome! I am new here also.

Casb77 – glad you are no longer bleeding, unfortunately I still am. I took your advice and called, the nurse said it was OK – even if it gets heavier – which it has not. But I was not confident when she said “hold on and let me ask someone with more clinical experience”. What does that mean?!? I might email the dr if it doesn’t stop by tomorrow. I have an sono Tues that is supposed to be the indicator for the transfer – makes me worried.

Irena – what beautiful babies! I wish you successful baking!!

Megan – good luck with the u/s!
