I saw that September group put that there's at a whole new meaning to Labor day.

Should we say something like - Whole new meaning to a New Year? or January 2009 Blessings.

Give me ideas or suggestions.

I truly hope I don't offend anyone with this thread.

Can we create a board that could keep the april bunnies together, because I feel that some of us like me actually will be in the december due date, so can we create a thread that can keep us together specially being that April is being so special to many of us including me
What you think?? and everyone else??

Yay to Traci and Yobaby for their news! Hang in there, Grace! There are tons of other people that I should shout out to, but haven't been keeping up. I feel like I'm in limbo right now with my low betas. I gave blood for my 4th beta this morning. I hope for a 300+, should get around 170 if my numbers follow the same track, will probably get a 120 or so ... Having major protein cravings.

I tried to post this last night but once again could not. Not sure what is going on. Here's what I wrote yesterday. And just to update a little--I only have to get through today and i am off bedrest. YEH.

Tired of bed rest and it's only been 24 hours. 24 more to go. I watched La Vie En Rose today, and read a little. I had written a long thing for the boards but it didn't take b/c of whatever was going on earlier today. DH is out getting us a turkey dinner. Wouldn't think it would be so hard to find a turkey meal out here but it is. Tomorrow will be Thai food. Yum. We almost got Indian food tonight. We live near this terrific indian restaurant, but my tummy is a little iffy so I didn't want to risk having indian food.

LadyR, love the joke!! I've got to go tell my hubby this one. He'll get a good laugh at it too. How are you feeling?

Rach, congrats on the

So excited for you!!!

Gracie, please hang in there. You are definitely a trooper and I know that no matter what happens in this cycle you WILL be a mama sometime soon, and a great one!!! I am sorry that you have to go through this emotional roller coaster. My heart is with you.

Traci, you are preggers

!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you!!! I know you were talking about sore boobs and mine have been sore for a while now (before the transfer). My head is pounding this morning too. So glad you are going in early for your Beta #'s. Yippee!

Nolla, those AF symptoms can also be preggers symptoms so please think positively!!! I know I am hoping and

for a

for you. Good luck on POAS.

Rana, you must be so happy to be off bedrest. I have another day, oy! We have Beta's scheduled on the same date (5-8, right?). It will be nice to have a beta buddy! How are you feeling?

Nursesunshine, so glad to hear your dad is doing well!! So exciting that you got to see one sac on the u/s. How amazing. I know I was amazed by seeing my little bean (that's our nickname for our embie) during ET...keep us posted.

Yobaby, Congrats on twins or triplets. Wow, well running after them will keep you young.

I am so excited for you!!!!

Isabella, keep away from the pee sticks! They are bad bad and way too tempting. You must keep away.

Your beta test will be here very soon!

Cathy and Reenabear, good luck at ET tomorrow. I got 2 fertilization reports although the second report I was only given the info. that they were doing very good and still growing and dividing. I also had to wait until the day of ET to find out how my embies were really doing. It is definitely hard to wait, but it will be worth the wait.

Amy, congrats on your

Megan, how is the OHSS? Are you still feeling sore? Ensure should work as well--probably easier than having DH make smoothies for you daily as mine has. I am getting really tired of smoothies. My pain is finally gone from my ER on 4-24, but I still don't want to risk getting OHSS. Listen to your body and rest and drink as much as you need to!

Irena, I'll be

for a high beta # for you! Get yourself some protein!!!

To my other April Buddies I hope everyone is doing well and feeling good!!! Sorry if I missed anyone there is just so much going on. It will be so nice to be off bedrest in a few short (feels like long) hours. Think I will read now, or take a nap...I've been so tired lately.

I dunno. She's missing right now. I think she'll wait b/c she is tough. She yanks teeth out of people for a living!

Glad you survived the first 24 hours of bedrest, just one more day!

I just drank a Odwalla Chocolate Super Protein. Yum! I went to Whole Foods after giving my blood and got lots of healthy forms of protein. Now I just have to eat it - I'm a carb girl!

I agree - what do we call it though? I am technically probably going to deliver in December as I will elect to have a c-section due to a previous surgery and I am scared of uterine rupture. But I am torn because I want us all to stay together. Any thoughts?

Hi April ladies! I posted this on the main thread but I wanted to post here too.....It's a

!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you God! I was sitting here waiting for the phone call and I couldn't take it anymore so I POAS and the beautiful 2 lines came up right away! Then I got the phone call from the nurse and she says "Congratulations" She said my # was 216 and they were pleased with that number. They don't want me to come back until Monday...yeah like I can wait until Monday...you know I will be calling back as soon as I stop shaking to see if I can come in this weekend. Thanks again to all of you wonderful ladies and for your support. Let's see some more BFPS!

By the way- I have NO SYMPTOMS...so for anyone that is in the 2WW please know that it is possible without any symptoms. My bbs are not even sore (they usually are)......Love you guys!!!!
