Wow, what an incredibly successful group of FETers!!! What a fantastic day on the boards!

Thank you so much for having so much energy on your thread! Its helped me/is helping me, so so much as I start my cycle. I had my lining ultrasound today, and its a 9. great! Looks like two more days before ovulation and the trigger shot. Seems my transfer will be next Tuesday. So fun, and so scary! Im starting to get excited!

hey, is there anyone here who only transfered ONE embie? or has everyone done 2+?

my Dr. is trying to get me to do one, but Im aftaid. thoughts??

Hi Sweatpea. You are pretty young. Is that why Doc wants to only transfer one? If the odds of your embies implanting are high and you are trying to avoid multiples that might explain it.

I was 30 when I did fresh IVF and my doc gave me the option to transfer one or two and no more. Each embie had a 65% chance of success and he is a firm believer that you shouldnt transfer too many. I will put in up to two now that I am doing an FET, because they have less of a success rate.

Gina, my embies are day 6 so why is my RE torturing me? Jsut kidding, I can hold out, but I will most likely POAS.

Okay, finally have some time to do a proper posting!

Lynn - Am so sorry - words cannot describe as well all know in this group. I wish you the best in whatever path you decide to go down next .

KSM - hope you are hanging in there with the 2WW.

ZMomma - so excited for you!!! Twinsies is huge - literally, but really how cool. They sound like they're doing great as well. Love to see your updates!

Melissa - if I had it to do over again I would definitely NOT POAS. I was totallly convinced I was not and just about had a heart attack when the nurse called this afternoon and said they got a positive. I even skipped my meds this morning - of course I ran and took them as soon as I got the call! Also, broke down and had a glass of wine last night and now am feeling totally guilty even though I know it's probably not a big deal, but I would never have had one if I hadn't gotten the from the POAS - anyhow, that's my 2 cents but I know how tempting it can be.

Gina - glad to hear the transfer went well and hope those little guys are snuggling in, now the fun part starts!

Dresden - you're probably resting in bed right now but I hope the transfer went well!

Hazel & FSOX - congrats!!! So excited to see your on a HPT - I still have not seen that yet. Also, your betas sound phenominal. I am a little conflicted over mine but have some comfort that I did a POAS last night and it was negative so at least that means it's going up.

Leigh - welcome home, hope you are settling in OK.

Rigby - I have had some cramping here and there over the last few days but other than that no symptoms that I can tell. Good luck - will be thinking about you!

Erica - your posts are great, I love to read them - keep them coming and good luck with your Beta tomorrow

Crislyn & Julianne - good luck tomorrow - lots of sent your way!

Just an FYI about the progesterone - my RE has me taking both the suppositories and the injections - the best of both worlds for me I guess! I use panty liners with the suppositories as I definitely find them messy!

AFM - off to Target to buy another HPT - hoping to see 2 lines tonight for the first time ever!

Shari--Congratulations. I had a good feeling about you.

OK, with the odds on this board I am feeling a lot of pressure now to keep them up....... I know beta is 24hrs away but feeling like I should go buy a pee stick---but then again, maybe not, seems like there hasn't been a lot of luck with them on this board yet....... I'll try not to disappoint you guys )

Mrs--glad all went well, now sit back and relax.

Crislyn and Julianne--Good luck tomorrow.

Rigby--good luck to you, your right behind me and it looks like we have some big shoes to fill..... Hope we both can keep up.

Well, I transferred two twice and both didn't work. The only one that (seems to have) worked was when we transferred one. Also, I ate meat. Not sure if the two are related.

It was definitely worth the $7! So, am still trying to stay positive and hope for a great report on Wednesday. Have a good night everyone.

I completely understand - saw my first two lines ever yesterday.

BTW, could you sleep last night? I couldn't - just too excited. I got up and had Chinese food and watched Housewives of NJ at midnight.

Shari that is awesome! You are mama. I am sure your numbers will grow on Wednesday. Congratulations!!!! I am totally the girl who goes out and buys a pregnancy test AFTER knowing I am already preggers Just something so lovely about seeing a ++++++!

Crislyn hope your transfer goes well today! Can't wait to hear your report! I'm not sure why your RE is torturing you lol. Definitely wouldn't blame you for POAS!

Erica good luck today. Keep us posted!!!

wanna it is almost your turn mama!

rigby good luck tomorrow! will you POAS or just wait for beta? How many embies did you transfer?

z momma keep taking care of those little beanies. It's great that you are able to rest up when you need it. It's so important!!

Julianne good luck today!!

Dressie how'd you do yesterday? Hope you are resting!

As for me, feeling splendid today. Got a lot of resting in yesterday and didn't carry DD at all yesterday and today only for a couple of seconds. It is so much harder to not do that than I thought!! Anyhow am back at work and just feeling good. Burping quite a bit which for me also happened immediately after my transfer w/ DD. Funny!

I'm kinda jealous of you girls who are on two forms of progesterone. I'm on just the vaginal tabs and I'm sure they work fine but I always just feel like the more the better, ya know?! Also is a bit tricky to remember to take them but haven't missed them yet, knock on wood. I had to set an alarm on my cell phone for the midday one, that one is hardest to remember!

***************************

Ultrasounds! How many babies are in there?!
06/26 - z_momma 2 beautiful heartbeats!
07/06 - Midum


z_momma Betas: 06/11 = 173; 06/15 = 927!!!; 06/17 = 1465!
