Mandy, Lia, Tyger- You guys are cracking me up. What a vision, bloody panties, teal panties then tyger taking a poo.

I am going to stay postive. You guys are so right it is a roller coaster and after I freaked out I started getting nauseas and my pain came back so my boogers are still trying to get right in there.
I love this place you guys are so much fun.

I do have the sweats associated with my miscarriage and last night was the first time i had major hot flashes since then and I know it has to be the hormones.

Carseat- I am soo excited for you that is AWESOME!!!

JandJ- I loved your story you are so cute and Good luck today.

Be back later got to go to meeting. xoxo

They are about to go in the trash! Dont worry Mandy, today they are a light teal ... is it wrong to say I though of you while I was putting them on? lol

April, I had the same dream. That I was bleeding a lot. I woke up and went to the bathroom to check. My headache didn't go away yet either. I think its just my normal migraine that I get every once in awhile.

I said to our sperm and eggs, "Your daddy and I met here and fell in love and never imagined, because we were young, that we would be married. Tomorrow you are going to have to work together so we can be a family. Some of you will have to make a sacrifice for one or two of you to have life. Do your best to work together. Eggs be strong to needles and being out of my body. Sperm be strong to fertilize eggs. You can do this." James had tears in his eyes. It was a really special way to be close the night before our children will be conceived, miles from where we will be at home waiting...

Hugs ladies!

Thats soo cute.. good luck!

Jandm, I think that the hot flashes are due to the progesterone. The same happened to me last night. Not nice!

Thx mandy...

For the last 2 days i've had some headaches and im just too scared to take anything so ive been dealing with them..This morning i felt something warm and i jumped out of bed to find nothing not even a tiny spot. I hate this waiting game...

Last night i did a first response and had a very faint line, this morning took another and the line was a tad bit darker....I'm hoping and praying that maybe i had a late implanter and that why my hcg levels are low...I will have to wait and see on thursday...

Good luck with all you ladies with ER & ET and the ones starting stims.

chuchu i know you are in peru and i just want to tell you my in-law who are cuban are on me and insist on bedrest.. I also spoke with another lady last night who had her 2nd ivf done at my clinic and she told me if its possible stay on the bed and only to get up to go pee.

It is very hard for me now I did bedrest for 5days after transfer and now back on bedrest sunday night i was so frustrated i wanted to get off that bed and get in my car and just drive!!!!

I read, played games, cross words & watched tv.

Back from egg retrieval

Everything went well at egg retrieval today. We have 10 eggs. I believe RE is going to do ICSI half.

I was hoping for more eggs of course, but 10 is still good as long as most of them fertilize.

I'm going to log back in in a little while to see if anyone has + beta and how everyone else's ER went.

Thinking of each of you!!!
