Oh my gosh Kristen, what a day!!! I am so sorry!!! That stuff just sounds sucky! It sounds like stugg our dogs would do, too. We can't give one of ours ham hocks anymore because he either throws up or it comes out the other end in a liquid form. I can't believe the doctor's office told you the wrong day!!! I'm so sorry you don't get to go to your friend's b-day party! I really hope your day gets better!

Jenifer, congrats on your bfp!!!!

Kari, I'm glad you got to get some valium for your transfer. I'm sorry that it was stressful, but I hope those embabies are snuggling in very tight!

Jean, I hope you get lots of great eggies tomorrow at your ER! Good luck!

Rose, I hope they tell you that you get to trigger tomorrow. What was your E2 today?

Heather, I'm so sorry that this cycle didn't work for you. I really hope your beta gives you a positive surprise.

I hope everyone else is doing well today!

Well, I have a confession to make. I scheduled my beta a day early this week so that I wouldn't miss as much work. I had my first beta yesterday morning. I POASed yesterday as well and got a bfn. I also POASed this morning and got a bfn. I went out and got a different brand because my beta yesterday was low positive (35). The hpt this afternoon finally said positive. So I am hoping and praying that my second beta tomorrow doubles or even triples.

OK, can someone explain to me the HPT... When is it to early, why would the drugs make it negative? It's all a little confusing. Not to mention STRESSFUL!

Well I think what they mean by the "drugs making it negative" is that when you give yourself the HCG trigger your body will have enough HCG in it's system to produce a "false positive" on an HPT. So you have to give yourself enough time to let the HCG get out of your system before you start testing your urine to be sure it's a real "positive" you are seeing. Does that make sense?? So some people will start POAS early to make sure that they actually do get a negative so they know that the HCG is out of their system and if they do get a positive later on than they know it's not the HCG trigger causing it. I hope that makes sense...LOL.

Oh honey...I'm so sorry. I'm thankful though that you still have the MAGNIFICENT SEVEN on ice for the next round. You can call Maryanne for an early beta if you want I think...I did my beta early when my AF started. Please don't leave us...the FETs are just as good as the fresh ones honey!!

Kristin, Wow I'm sorry your having such a bad day, when it rains it pours hon. I have a 3 1/2 yr old and an 8 month old pups. Ad when they get in their moods they can terrorize the whole day long. I hope everything turns out great with the neurologist so that your migraines can finally go away. I'd hate to see what happens when the Lupron starts if you don't get that taken care of.

Janice, Congratulations girl you are definitely

I'm sorry to hear that Kristen My doggies used to do that....I'm so glad that they haven't in years though. We feed them Natural Balance Duck and Potato and I think that it's such a bland food that they don't get upset tummies as much as they used to. Anyhow, I know how you feel....I remember coming home and just being tired and then having to clean a stinky crate, the area around it, air out the area around it and give the doggies a bath. And the whole attacking the puppy thing...again, we've dealt with that. Our 8 year old Doxie is very very particular about who she likes and we do Doxie rescue. We found out quickly that she didn't need another female doggie around, and she didn't want anyone larger or older than her...no more Alpha dogs. We got tired of the vet bills and missing hair...etc LOL They truly are like people, some just don't mesh and sometimes it takes longer for them to adjust to each other and find their place in the pack again.

I'm SOOOOO emotional too. I got all irritated that a local burger joint gave me a kids size fry with my combo tonight (and last week) and when I finally called they said "oh that's the new size for our combo's" LOL Well, just charge me the same and give me 1/2 the fries. When I sat down I realized I NEVER eat all of them, and I didn't even eat all the 'kids' size ones LOL, still I was just irritated....I'm tired of these BCP's and their moodiness side effects.

I'm worried about the cyst and my baseline next week too....and I'm worried that I'll get a BFN...there's been a lot of them this week in the different threads I read I'm so sad for all you ladies getting negatives and it really makes me think about my own chances.
