Leigh Ann, I think you are doing the right thing. It's wonderful that your sister can be there with you. I think you are doing all that you can. You know your heart. I would only suggest that you keep expressing yourself to DH about how much you love him when you are able to talk with him. I think reassurance is always a good thing. I always hate to say things like this when I don't know someone's faith, but God is always with you, and he loves you.

kelly- I think it is great you are keeping all of your options open- please keep us informed on what you find out etc... I will be doing that after a little while longer- I think I will always keep trying naturally no matter what- but at least with adoption there is an end result for sure to all the waiting-

leighann- I am sooo sorry- it will be good to have your sis there- she can help you be as logical as possible - it is hard to know what to do when you feel so mixed up- you will get through this- hopefully your DH will realize he has made a mistake and he will come back more open- I say if you want to call wait as long as you can but then do it- but call once you have decided exactly what you are going to say or talk about and try to get to a calm place before doing so- being more upset and emotional may cause him to move farther back- I am glad you are going to go to the counselor- they may know what to do- we are here- you do not need to leave the site at all

Jamie-14 eggs...that is wonderful! How do you feel?

Jana-how are the stims?

Leigh Ann-I am so happy your sister is there for you! Take advantage of the time she is here to regroup!

I am not sure if this is my head or for real, but were you all sore while stimming? My ovaries hurt and I feel a bit tight in there? I started the ganirelix last night so I am not sure if that did it or the upped dose of Menopur...Menopur is the devil...those shots hurt like hell! What we do to our bodies! It will all be worth it!

Hope everyone is well!

Erin

Erin, I remember some soreness while stimming. I had some much soreness experience in my a... with the progesterone shots.

Neocleo, yes!!!!!!!!!!! It is the attachment that makes us go cokoo. I'm practicing the non-attachment for the good and the bad. It is hard for the good stuff. But, I repeat to myself: "This, too, shall pass".

Jaime, 14 eggs!! Wonderful news!! Please keep us posted with your progress.

Kelly, you are BUSY! It sounds that you have a plan and I am sure that gives you lots of peace. Good for you! Remember we are here cheering for you.

Jana, I am trying to do the best of it! I know it is going to be tough and sad, but don't let it drive me crazy and depressed. We will see once he leaves.... I am sure I will be miserable! Meanwhile, we are trying to do fun things together mixed with work/packing/work. Tomorrow we wanted to go to a museum but I forgot they are all closed. DH just went and got a complete service for the car so I don't have any problems while he is gone. My in-laws are soooo happy that he will be staying with them.

Leigh Ann, it is great that your sister is going to stay with you. Enjoy your time with her. I believe that in order for a separation to really work you have to give the other person space. Also, I would only go back if we have resolved all the issues. I have friends that start leaving together with their partners before gettting all fixed. Well, a short time after, the problems arise again. I am really hoping that your marriage comes back stronger and with much more wisdom.

I have a question...

Neocleo- Don't stop the progesterone. Definitely wait and test again, maybe a couple times. For my first IUI I got a and then had so I thought. I tested a couple days after it started and it was positive. I did end up having a miscarriage, but late implantation is very possible. I just happened to me again. Sometimes we get mixed results.

Jaime-Congrats on 14 eggs !!

Question-I just got my second beta back to make sure it went to 0. My first was 6 and now it is 8. I thought I already had the miscarriage so why would it go up? I couldn't really discuss this with the nurse because I was around too many people. Can anyone shed any light on this? I go back Wednesday for another test. So tired of all this bloodwork

You guys are all so awesome. Thanks from the bottom of my heart for being willing to listen and respond to my problems.

Jamie-did your ER go well? crossed that it did and you are feeling o.k.

I remember being so backed up following my ER. Drink lots of fluids!!

Did You Mean Bfn Honey? I Tested 13dpiui, I Was Too Afraid To Test Before Then Because I Was Terrified I Would Get A Bfn And Get Dicouraged. Please Just Wait A Few More Days And Try Not To Get Dicouraged, It Could Still Happen Girl, Stay Positive!!! I Know It's Scary And Hard. We Are All Here For You Hon..
