I was way too out of it to register what he was saying, but I want to ask him what the heck happened to the other 5 follies I had?

The only other thing he said to my DH (and I must of been really out of it b/c I don't ever remember the RE saying this) was that my tubes looked kind of swollen and to continue taking Doxy for the next few days.

I'm scheduled to go in tomorrow at 8AM to find out if I'll be getting the ring or creme. We should know tomorrow night how our embies are doing.

that all 4 are succesful!

Congrats Molly to YOU!!!

My Right ovary came out of hiding and has LOTS of follies, well over 10 on that one alone, which is a shock because last IVF, that ovary only had TWO! So I'm very excited!! Hopefully they won't have to do the abdominal retrieval after all!

Good news Kristen!!! Good luck on your ER!!!!!!

Megan!!! Can't wait to hear about your success!!!

Molly - Congratulations on your ER!! Try not to worry about how many eggs you got, remember, it's quality not quantity!!!

Well, four minutes till the SHOT!!! WOOHOO!! My neighbor is coming over to give me my shot (she's a nurse)! Thank goodness, I'm afraid my DH would paralzye me doing it. LOL!

[babywishes13]

Yay Kristen!!! Good luck on Monday!

Congrats on your ET Molly, I agree with the other girls, don't worry, you have four great eggs!!

[babywishes13]

Shannon and Courtney, good luck on your betas tomorrow!! I have mine as well, hope we all get BFP's!!

[cheli5]

Kristen - it was great to see you this morning and I'm so happy to hear that your ovary showed it's face to the camera today! Hope the trigger went well and that ER goes great Monday.

Courtney - can't wait to hear about your BFP!

Megan! You'll love it here.

Melissa - to you too!

Stacey(TX) - glad to hear that your rest is going well and I know what you mean about getting your hopes up through all of this. There's such a fine line between thinking positively and being realistic. It's tough...you're not alone.

Can't type much, I'm supposed to be resting. DH makes sure I'm not up for long...I had my ET transfer this morning. Quite the mix up at CORM with their times (I guess...) I was called and told to be there early (6:30am) and no one even saw me until 9:30 am - wouldn't be complaining, but a full bladder for that long can make things not fun! Nonetheless, after I was able to pee I was elated about what we just did! It was so cool to watch the little black dots drop into your body on the screen and know that it will be your baby or babies...Dr.Schnell said they put in 2 grade AA embryos that both reached the blastocyte stage. I had at least 4 that they hope to blast by tomorrow and be able to freeze. I'll know tomorrow...well, back to resting for me. I'm still under the weather a bit, but getting better. Everytime I have to cough I'm so scared and I'm shaking things up down there.

Congrats Cheli on transferring 2 high quality blasts! That is so wonderful I know what you mean about seeing the little black dot when they put them in. I didn't see the screen this time, but in our previous attempts we received pictures of our embryos and I always saw them after they were placed. This time we received a picture of them in place. I can just hope and pray that they will be in the next day or so snuggling in night and tight for the long haul. Your DH sounds like my DH. I have been on pretty strict bed/couch/recliner rest since Thursday and I am ready to MOVE! So I told DH that tomorrow I am going to do a few things around the house and he said I think you should just relax for the next few days! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your embabies it will be our Beta day before we know it!

Cheli - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I'm so excited that we got to meet this morning too! You are PUPO X 2!!! I'm sorry they made you wait so long! I've learned from past experience (and from what other people have said) to not expect to go in right when they say! I think for my ET, I'll start drinking my water when I get there! LOL!

Babywishes, Shannon and Courtney - GOOD LUCK TOMORROW!!!! Praying for BIG numbers ladies!!!

Stacey (TX): I hope you are enjoying your bed rest!!!

Shot went great! I'm ready to go!!!

[IndieBlue]

Ladies: I think it's over for me I'm very sad to say that for the past weeks I've been a POAS'holic and gotten 2 positive test It was wonderful and yesterday it got darker....YAY!! This morning I decided to take a FRER and put it with the father's day card I'd picked up....only to get a NEGATIVE on it and 2 of the ones like I took all week.

I'm having the hot flashes like I do before I start AF (first thing in the morning) and also the AF type cramps (which I really thought was a normal sign of implantation).....so looks like whatever was giving off the HCG is gone now.

I've not bled any, so not sure exactly what is holding that off....but again who knows why God would have let me see 2 darkening positives and then take that away.

I feel so extremely sad, just overcome with not wanting to move. The drive to the RE on Wednesday is going to be the most depressing thing I've had to do in a long time....I really wish I didn't have to go now.

Thanks to everyone who sent me positive vibes through this all, and for the prayers My loving husband is still holding out hope for Wednesday....but I'm just devastated at the loss right now and can't focus on any positives just to be let down again.

I know many of you have been through this multiple times...and I commend you.....this is by far the most disappointing thing to come out of so much hard work and money. But seeing all you move on lets me know that I can too....and be happy with the blessings I have.

Thanks again and best of luck to you all!!!

[Passionscientist]

Oh Faith - Don't give up!!! I know that is hard to do but you haven't started and those EVIL sticks are just that....EVIL!!! So don't lose hope ok??? I'll say some prayers that the sticks are wrong and that you will get your positive soon!!

[Melis74]

Heather - I didn't realize that, oh well, I guess...too late now! I shoulda logged back in that night, lol. I'll just be hoping and praying that my 3-day txfr worked for us! Thanks for the well wishes!

Kristen - Congrats on those follies!! How did the trigger go? Your comment about DH was too funny! Good luck on your ER tomorrow!

Megan - Welcome!!

Molly - I will be praying for your 4! We shall call them the Fantastic Four! Please keep us posted on how they are doing!

Cheli - I thought my situation, was bad...your wait was much longer, you poor thing!!! Congrats on the transfer and being PUPO x2!!

Faith - I truly hope that you get a nice surprise at your beta, please don't give up just yet!

Babywishes, Shannon & Courtney - Good luck on your Beta's today!

My ET went well, though I was told to be there at 8 for valium and my procedure would be at 8:30. I thought I had my drinking and bladder fullness timed perfectly, but I didn't get my valium until 8:45, I was almost in tears I had to go sooo bad. The nurse took pity on me and let me go a little. Then when I changed for the ET I went a little more...shhh! However, it didn't matter because everything went smoothly and we trasnferred three Grade A 8-cells! I have the picture and I just keep picking it up and looking at the little white circle of fluid that has our little embies in it! Funny note, the nurse pointed out my bladder and said, see that white line...that's urine coming into your bladder...so I had PLENTY to fill it up with apparently. MY DH cracked up when the nurse came back in the room after my "resting" period...I said "Yay, it's peepee time!"

As for our other embies, we have 2 8-cell, 1-7 cell, 3-6-cell, 1-5cell, 2-4 cell and 1-2 cell that they are keeping an eye on for freezing. I'm just laying about the house catching up on my DVR recordings and thinking about how many days there are until beta!

[Chinadoll08]

Congrats on being PUPOx3 club!!! So glad to hear that it went well now just sit back and relax!
