Ironically, we've all felt like we were the only ones going through this madness. Are you feeling mostly anxious?

Hi guys - sorry I've been MIA. I mentioned before but I've been pretty sick and every time I throw up there is the issue of my blood pressure meds. I take meds pretty much all day long so it's been rough. They are holding off on zophran for now which I am happy about but I sure wish I felt better - worried about keeping my bp regulated. Oh good news - I'm off the vivelle patches!!! No more sticky gunk!!!

Linz Is your s-i-l still in the hospital? Love the pic and the choc cake story. I fell off the low sodium wagon today and ate a pulled pork sandwich with cole slaw - yummy!! It's the first thing that went down well in quite a while.

EmiRose I had my progesterone increased about a week after my positive and was worried but they said it was fine and everything's looking good so now I believe them LOL. They also increased my vivelle patces from 2 to 3. As far as the cramping - I had that at about the time you are having it and even a little earlier - wasn't sure if it was implantation or air that somehow got in there.

Lua GL with the transfer tomorrow.

Irena Love the pics of the u/s - so cute!

yolie Love the story about your dh with the circles on his but - I cracked up!!

crazy4twins and razorbackgirl!!

Ryan I have the heart palpatations too. I hope your tests come out well and that it isn't anyything to worry about.

Megan GL with the u/s tomorrow - can't wait to hear the bean count.

I'm sure I missed a bunch of people - sorry about that but know I'm thinking and praying for you all.

Hey girls!

Hope everyone is doing! The picture of the two boys are priceless!

Lua-Good luck tomorrow!

Yolie-Yeah for tomorrow! I am excited for you! I am not too far behind you. Friday is my day!

So...I started the dreadful progesterone tonight. I just hate the anticipation of the shot. I had my last blood work and sono before the transfer on Friday. My lining is a 13! Woo hoo! I ready to rock and roll.

Has anyone done acupuncture? I heard so many success stories after acupuncture. Don't know if I should try it or not...

Hope everyone had a good start to the week!

Kim

I did and am still doing acupuncture - I think it's wonderful! It's relaxing and also one of those things that won't hurt your chances, only improve it.

Hopeful- Sorry you are feeling so sick. I know what you mean and it SUCKS! It will ease up soon as you know so hang in there. I am sure my heart issues are no big deal. They did refer me to a cardiologist and Wed. I will be wired up for 24 hours to monitor my heart. Thursday I will get the results and move on. I just am paranoid cause I'm pregnant ya know.

Lua and Yolie- Good luck on those transfers! vibes.

Kimic- NICE LINING!! sounds like a perfect start. Don't sweat those injections they lead to that little miricle.

Shelly- How are you feeling? When is your beta?

Megan- Looking forward to the big bean count tomorrow. You must be climbing out of your skin just waiting!

TKO- When is your u/s I can't remember. Don't remember much these days.

Welcome to all the new ladies!
Sorry if I missed anyone. Have a wonderful tuesday.

Kim I did acupuncture. I think we go to the same place so your transfer will be in Mineola right? If so, they have recommendations for apists near to the Mineola office for ap before and after the transfer. You should call soon though if you want to do it - they gave me herbs (RE approved) to take the night before and the morning of - not sure if that's what did it but I def think the AP itself helped. I went for a while before and after the transfer too. 13 is an awesome lining - better than I had! How many are you transferring? Blasts? Sorry if you said already with all the catching up it's hard to keep it straight.

Yolie, Lua and Megan thinking of you guys today!!

Good Morning Ladies! I have not so good news after my sono today. I had bleeding all weekend, and my lining is not near thick enough - 3.5. Hopefully it won't take too long to get it back in shape! Now we will have to put off the transfer, but I don't know how long. I am being monitored out of town - so I am waiting for a call from my dr.
Good luck with the transfers today!
