New2It: You should talk your clinic into getting a TV viewing screen so you can see what is going on during your ultrasounds- it is so much better!! I know what you mean about everybody being pregnant. It hasn't ended for me yet either- I swear, as we were heading to the clinic while I was bleeding and cramping and scared to death, we saw an UNBELIEVABLE number for pregnant people walking on the streets, in the parking lot, etc. (Of course most of them also had young children with them in addition to the big bellies.) Aghhh!! I don't know if there are always that many and I just don't notice them as much at other times or what! Anyway, sending lots of baby dust your way!

LDC: Baby dust to you too my dear! I think your follies sound fabulous! What are you doing to celebrate your 5th annivesary?

jfratts: Hoping you survive the long weekend!!! Hurricane and heartburn!... sounds like a nasty combination!

ish: Put your swimsuit on as soon as you get there. That'll bring the old bat rushing over. Unless we're supposed to be wishing her to STAY AWAY now until your vacation is over?

Beach: Have a fabulous weekend glowing and smiling secret Mommy smiles.

September: This is a GREAT group of women! At what stage in this process are you?

Incomplete: I'm definitely not a tougher woman... I whined and felt sorry for myslef everytime the number came back above 5. Praying for your beta to be negative today... NO WHAMMY! NO WHAMMY! NO WHAMMY!

Sel74: Thinking of you and Sol today.

JenniVamp: I've done the same thing about forgotting some people just have sex to have kids! This is probably TMI but I am DYING b/c we haven't been able to BD for about 3 MONTHS bC of various issues. We would've gotten the red light this week after U/S, but not now with the bleeding and everything. AGHHH! Oh well! If the twinkies are okay, it's a small sacrifice to make, but so funny to be 6 weeks pregnant and not have had any action for that long!

RLG: SHWHEEWWWW! P.S. That translates into a big sigh of relief.

Jan: CONGRATULATIONS MOMMA!!! That is wonderful news!! How exciting!

Shae: Thinking of you.

AFM: Green this morning (literally- a very nasty color when I looked in the mirror), but able to keep down some light food so far.
**** I seriously had a dream about the BFP Train last night. It was like Sam's clinic on the inside... luxury and pampering like crazy! And there was a food car where they were serving Liz's food. But it wasn't moving. It was just parked in the station and we were all just walking in an out and visiting on the train and on the platform. BUT... I figured out why we weren't moving when I woke up... it's b/c we were waiting for everybody else to get a seat!!! Waiting for you ladies; I KNOW you'll be on the train soon and we aren't going anywhere until you are!!!! Love you all.

Jan: Wooo!! A "One Hit Wonder" as my RE calls it when you only have one egg fertilize. I am so, so thrilled for you!!!! You also give me hope as someone who also only had one fertilize last time. It is possible!!! Congrats !!!!

Incomplete: I want on the BFP train so bad!!! I always get nervous that there are too many and inevitably, statisticly someone will need to be the BFN. I don't want to be it! (SNAP negative thought - going away in balloon!)

RLG: So glad it's ok!!!

I love this!!!!!!!! We hope the train doesn't have to wait too much longer before we are all on board and honestly I pray it is like Sams clinic and with Liz's food, sounds like paradise to me. Sorry you are feeling so green, maybe you should go get some of that zofran Nelly got.

I am still in shock for seeing that second line. It was so faint but could be seen without me twisting and turning the test to look at it at every angle. I keep telling myself that a line is a line but having a hard time believing. I had totally chaulked this cycle off as a bust since only 1 out of 8 fertilized and that was only a 6-cell with 20% fragmentation. Keep the faith because mighty righty is going to come through!

[nelly1]

jan, congrats!!! You are so !!

skipper, I'm sorry you are feeling so lousy, but as they say, misery loves company . I'm still puking through the zofran, but now it is only in the morning after breakfast. I feel great the rest of the day though, so I am ecstatic. I kind of welcome my morning sickness, if only because it is a reassurance that I am still preggers. Yesterday I felt so good that I was sure I was no longer preggo. Ugh the mind games we can play!

liz, don't forget your chances go up with a second cycle, and with your revised protocol I'm sure this is your time!! Love the visualization technique with your balloon. It's perfect!!

incomplete, praying for a GOOSE EGG all the way!

RLG, glad you talked to the nurse and everything is ok

beach, have an awesome weekend, but how could you not??? You are !!!

AFM, I go in for my second and final intralipid infusion today. I just found out that those things are 1000 calories!! No wonder I was so full after the last one. Been eating so much better since the zofran. Liz, you would be proud -- yesterday I had a kale & quinoa salad.

Hello all, just got finished with a longggg day of appointments. We had Sol x-rayd... not as bad as it could have been but still not good. He has multiple fractures to his pelvis.. 1 big break on the medial pelvis bone (broken in half and not even touching each other). his lower pelvis under his tail is about 2 cm lower then it should be (they called it a pelvic shift if i translated it right).

He said that is "possible" that with rest in a very small cage that in a few months he could be right as rain without surgery, but not probable. The surgery to have it fixed will cost me about 1500 euros that i simply dont have. I called the surgeon and cried (gotta love the hormones) and explained that I havent been working since july cause i TOO need surgery and tho im working (tho not since july) and my DH is working i just dont have the money to pay it all up front and in cash and maybe they had a payment arrangement i can make? he said i dont know cause ppl start it then they never finish paying and.. and.... I said I know how that goes and i tried to SPCA to see if the had a program that would help me pay for it but with the payments for the house that we OWN and the NEW CAR.. and my MEDICAL SCHOOL payments we dont qualify for help. AND so he agreed to see me monday morning at 9 am SHARP... I was hoping to show him that we have the ability to make payments and that , when working, I have the ability to make the payments. i guess it worked cause now he'll see Sol. And he said he wants to see him IMMEDIATELY (but not this weekends cause then itll cost twice). Right now hes on pain meds and antibiotics and were just waiting to see how it goes. Its possible the surgeon will say he doesnt need surgery but im not counting on that.

I got this cat from my ex that had him for 7 years (3 years of that together) and so far hes called me 5 F**ing time to say i should just put him to sleep... im so ready to strangle him.

Today hes not peeing blood anymore, he ate about 200ML and drank a little bit. I just walked by his cage and he had one leg hoisted in the air and was cleaning him self so i think thats a good sign.

I was all bummed out yesterday cause i didnt have any nausea yesterday but today i got it back.. ive been trying so hard to keep everything down. I called my GP ans asked if theres a flu going around that only causes nausea but he said that if BOTH embies implanted you can get MS from 3 weeks or so. So plus point for me but im still nervous and trying to keep the faith.

Todays symptoms : nausea (cant eat anything fluid and keep it down blah) bloated feeling and ofc crying 22 hours out of todays 24.

Ill try to get to personals later but now my back is KILLING me since my GP wont give me the other meds he promised me and I just have to suffer now. Sucks going from morphine pills to NOTHING. It hurts so bad but i dont want to endanger my twinnies.

[robandsamduke]

Well i pray they let u make payments!!!!! I hate when they say NO!!!! Im trying to save an animal!!! Goodluck on monday and ill keep you and kitty in my thoughts!!

[jfratts]

Liz- Yeah I absolutely think the Heartburn is a symptom so I will take it. Just hope it goes away soon. You know the whole Earl thing I am not sure I am about 25 min inland from the coast so I think we will be ok. I should probably watch the weather. HAPPY HAPPY 5th tomorrow. 5 years is good luck so I know this cycle will work for you.

September- I don't think you are awful at all for feeling the way you do. 4 showers how depressing. You will love this group the ladies are awesome. When do you start?

jenni- I hear you on the forgetting people actually get pregnant from sex. I mean how does that work? LOL. I wasted 7 years of birth control. Well atleast it made my only 3 days long. BTW congrats on being PUPO with trips.

RLG- I think it will be ok. Have you called your Dr. maybe they can reassure you. So glad you spoke to someone. I am sure that makes you feel so much better.

Jan- so happy for you . Doesn't peer pressure suck!!! LOL.

nelly- I am so glad to hear you are getting some relief. But when you are holding you 2 little darlings it will all be worth it.

sel- I really really hope this all works out for you. You are having such a sucky time right now. Your poor little cat. I hope Sol gets better soon and doesn't need surgery.

Ladies- It looks like the train is making its way into the station I hope all you next group of ladies are ready to get on. Don't worry to those who aren't quite packed for the trip yet the train makes stops every week until you all get on the train. Like Liz said CHUGGA CHUGGA CHOO CHOO!!!!!
