FETs make late implanters --

SYB- my RE always says that FET's take longer to implant. I know its hard but try to keep your chin up.

Congrats TARA

Hi Tara,
I am so excited for you! You must be so happy!

What are your next steps?


Amaya - I had my transfer yesterday as well. It went very smoothly. They transferred two hatching blasts. I have just been taking it easy.

How long did all of you remain on bedrest? My RE says 24 hours and then take it easy. I just want it to work so much this time.

Thanks Malone I am trying to keep a positive attitude and not worry too much about the POAS results. My beta is Sunday so I am hoping for the best.

I am glad your transfer went well!!

SYB How did it go today? Thinking of you and hoping to hear of a BFP!

Malone how are you feeling post trans.? Do you think you will POAS?

Amaya How are you feeling? Good for you to take back control!

Sarah How is it going?

AFM Tomorrow is my second Beta Then I will re test Wed and Fri. I insisted since my MC in May. I only did 2 and I want to see the trend of numbers go up. Tuesday I go for intralipids. I am so nervous and worried. I just want to get to the milestone of the first US. This is such a up and down rollarcoaster. I know all of you know how it feels!
Hope everyone is healthy and happy and sending prayers to you all!

Hey Girls.

I've been out of town since Thursday night and just got home and have been reading your posts.

Amaya- welcome back!! Great transfer......How is your 2ww going???

Sarah - how are things?

Justforone - how did your transfer go?

Malone - welcome to the 2ww. How are you feeling?

SweetPea- Great to hear from you and hear that your US is the same day as my BETA......That means you need to be sending some of your good vibes my way....I am so happy things are going so well for you.

SYB - Any news.........Been thinking of you ALL DAY

As for me.........this WAIT is killing me!!! I really had some minor cramps the day of transfer and the day after. Had bedrest (well sort of) for 2 days and then just have been doing my normal stuff. I don't really feel much different, just tired and my bb's are sore. Sometimes I get cramps and back pain but they just come and go..........How about you others in the 2ww??? Any thing going on???

I cannot believe my BETA is next.....I am praying and praying and praying some more.

I know you girls are too for your upcoming betas...

My transfer went well on August 1st. I have no twinges, nothing to fall back on at all. I have no idea if it worked. The transfer was a little hard. The catherer was refusing to go in. Both were extended blasts. I was on bedrest from Saturday afternoon.

Seay77 - Good luck for Friday.

Malone - Good to hear that ur transfer went well.

I just hope they stick! I want this to work!

Happy Monday ALL -

JustOne - Extended blasts... that's great....gives them a running start


Sweetpea - Sorry you are not feeling well

Seay - This wait is just ridiculous. I guess IF really works on our patience. At least you have them now and they are snuggling in.

TeacherTara - I know it is a roller coaster, but you are through one more hill Can I ask about the intralipids? I have done some reading that mentions them, but I don't think my doctor tested me for anything relevent to its application. I had the RPL bloodwork and they found MTHFR and another blood clotting disorder though.

I have 8 days until my beta. No sore bbs but I am having some cramping. I am not sure if that is good or bad. I also did not have an implantation bleeding.

sweetpea - hope you feel better soon. had a friend on zofran for the first trimester and then it finally resolved. well worth waiting for though!

justforone - congrats on the transfer.....now we just wait and wait and wait.

NO implantation bleeding for me........I am 6dp5dt.....UGH........Will Friday ever get here. It was weird last night when I went to bed. I had a burning kinda cramping sensation for an hour or so and then it stopped and when I woke up this morning, no more cramps. I wish my bb's were not sore because it is pretty intense........TMI......

You guys are sooo in my ...I would love like 5 BFP in a row...That would just be great!!!!

So to the 2ww - Sarah, Malone, Amaya and JustforOne

Hi guys, didn't feel like posting yesterday but my beta was negative (3) so I have stopped meds and need to decide if we want to go into another cycle or give my body (especially my butt) and mind a break for a month. We have one more day 6 blast left from a different donor. Lots to think about right now.

Good luck to you guys on your upcoming betas!!!

SYB - so sorry to hear that. I know we were all hoping for good news! Of course we all know how you feel! And we are all here if you need to talk!

Sweet Pea - sorry you are so sick! YUK - I guess it is all for the best in the end

Seay - You know what they say - don't stress about symptoms! I totally know what you mean about wanting sore bbs! I always feel like that is the tell tale sign of a BFP! BUT - not necessarily so!

Just One & Malone &Sarah & Amyva (I hope I didn't forget anyone!!!) - Praying for you!

Tara - you are already half way there girly!!! Keep those positive vibes!!! It seems like there is always something to stress about, doesn't it!!!

As for me, HATING the pio shots - my butt is sore YUK - normally my RE doesn't have us do them, but for a frozen cycle- yes - fun fun. Today I get the all to see how many of our frozen babies made it to thaw - and then tomorrow is the big day! I am so glad I am out of school and can just relax. Of course my dogs are crazy, so that doesn't help!!

hi Sandy, I know we cycled together in May and both had different results, but I hope you and Joanne will take some time to relax, let your body rid itself of the meds, and do that last embaby, he/she is waiting for you. I hope and pray for you guys to have your miracle.
