Hi everyone!
Dre-YIPPEE! You are ! I am so happy for you!Claudia-Hope the cold is getting better. I still feel crappy...guess better now than at transfer time! Kelly-I do not know anything about endo-sorry! I will pray that the lupron does the trick. Jessie-Glad to hear the twins are doing well. Where does the time go...you are half way there! Jana-Great news! Glad everyone looked good on the U/S! Hope everyone else is well! I am taking the delestrogen every three days...it is an IM shot that is supposed to plump the lining. I go for the lining check on 2/16 and if all looks good I start the PIO in addition. I am more nervous this time than I have been in the past. I was so upset over the octuplets birth...she is one fertile woman. I did find my silver lining though- her last transfer a FET...I still cannot believe they all took! Blessings to all!

Dre....I had a lap done in January 2006. Do you think I should ask for another one? This RE is going to be my new doctor. I am officially switching changing clinics to Brigham & Womens in Boston w/ Dr. Ashby. I am not sure what her plans are. I have an endometrial biopsy scheduled in 2 weeks and then we will meet to discuss plans.
How did you do on the lupron? Did you then cycle right after with this cycle? what stage is your endo?

Kelly ~ I have stage 3 endo. IN MY TUBES, not any anywhere else. I had a lap done in 2005, and after the lap was finished I did lupron for 3 months. It was one shot a month? Not bad at all, but takes up time when you are TTC. If you have endo in your tubes as well, I don't see the point of the LUPRON, so I'm confused on why she would do that?
Did she explain? Lupron makes your body think that it's going into menopause, why would she want that? STRANGE?  Claudia ~ I miss you.......  Jessie ~ I'm going to send you a PM, this thyroid stuff is killing me!

Jessie ~ it totally helped, we are going to call RE again (poor guy, he really is amazing), and see if we are being agressive enough... We want to test again on Friday and see if the 2 pills have made any difference. The HUGE spike in 2 days concerns us...
So we'll see. I think I can deal w/up'in the dose, and he was concerned about me. Today I'm a mess, I have no symptoms and i'm fearful. US isn't untill 3 more weeks and I already feel sad.... I know it's because of the MC. I hate that I let my past affect this.... I never had any bleeding w/the MC, so I don't think I would EVER know that anything was wrong and that is so hard.... I know there's nothing to make it better, I just have to wait, but I'm having a hard day today. Thanks for listening...

Dre, try to take it easy. I didn't have any symptoms until 7 wks. and at then it came on with avengence. I didn't have any bleeding with my m/c either, but I've dealt with tons of it during this pregnancy. Try to remember that every pregnancy is different. I'm sure those symptoms are going to show very soon.

Hello my dear friends!
As always missing you a lot. But, please know that during my day I think of you and always sending you good vibes. Dre, I couldn't agree more with Jana. Try to stay positive. I didn't have any bleeding either. I hope your levels improve. Jessie, thanks!!! Yes, we had a great time. I am already missing her. Kelly, I LOVED your entry in your blog. IF has changed me too and DH. It is a lot to handle but has made us grow a ton in strength, acceptance and patience. I can totally relate to the accomplishment feeling after helping someone. Congratulations! Jana, please post a picture of your belly!! Jaime, I hope everything is good. Erin, I am cheering for you!!! Visualize yourself pregant! We could have a good chat about the mother of 14...... I would love to have a case discussion to learn more about IVF and probabilities of success. So, here I am alone again! I will enjoy this week and try to recover from the last two weeks with my mom. We enjoyed every moment. It has been a bittersweet month. After my brother lost his job, my dad also lost his. It was for different reasons but still is something that worries us all as a family. On the other hand, my DH accepted his job offer in Lima.... so you all have a new destination to visit and you are welcome: Lima, Peru! I am just openly sharing this with my forum friends because I wanted it to sink in. I don't know our timeline yet but we are definetely moving back after 8 years in the US. I need your support/advice. My due date is around the corner. Everyday I see huge beautiful bellies at work and gorgeous babies. Again I am feeling a deep heartache..... DH and I had agreed on cycling again before this date but because of all the reasons that you all know, I have not been able to go to Peru. So, again my acceptance and endurance are being tested. Sorry, this post was long but I need to share with you. Love!

Hello
Dre-Please try to relax and continue to pray. I am sure you and your little one are going to be just fine!
Jessie-How are you? Jana-How are you feeling? Claudia- How wonderful! You are moving back home. I totally agree with the heartache that comes with the due date. I am trying to stay positive this time. It is a far easier process. Thanks for the prayers! How is everyone else? I am awating next Friday. I have a terrible cold and am miserable, but I guess now is better than next week! I am so baffled by this whole FET process. Blessings to all! Erin

Dre, How Are You Doing?
Claudia, Gosh, You Do A Lot Of Entertaining. I'm Glad You Are Keeping Yourself Busy. I Hope You All Have A Wonderful Visit. When Are You Suppose To Move? Erin, I Can't Believe Your Fet Is This Week!!!! I'm Doing Well. 21 Weeks Has Passed Somewhat Quickly, But Now Time Seems To Be Slowing.. Maybe Because I'm Getting More Uncomfortable? We Had A B-day Party For My Dh Yesterday So I'm A Little Tired Today. The Babies Are Moving Alot, Which Is Sooooooo Cool. I Can't Wait For Dh To Feel Them. We've Got A Little More Registering To Do, Our Shower Is Planned For March 28th So We Are Definately Getting Into Baby Mode..

Hey Girls,
Jessie-I cannot believe it is 21 weeks already! Time really does fly! I cannot believe that my FET is this week either. I went for the us/bw today and everything looks great. I am battling over how many to transfer. They are thawing 4 and want to put the best two back. They said they will watch any remaining to be refrozen. what is the do not think they are good enough to refreeze? i refuse to allow any to be destroyed so we want three put back . They say that 70% make the thaw so that is my three. Who knows. THey are sticking to their guns. This is my 4th transfer. Do they think they may want to change their gameplan!! Claudia-Any word from INS? You must be getting so anxious! Hope everyone is well! Erin
