Anyway, I know you understand b/c of you having to take time off for the lap, etc..it is sooooo FRUSTRATING!!!!

Leanne - Happy Belated Birthday!!! I hope you won some money...or at least had fun:-)

Okay, so I am seriously stressed by the lack of ovulation here...am like clockwork on day 13 and today is day 14 and nada....so I'm assuming AF will be late. I hate this! Oh well...and DH is away in Massachussetts doing a class for work, so I'm here to obsess alone (which I'm not supposed to be doing this month!).

Happy Hump day everyone!!!


Hi Sue - easy to say but hard to do - but try not to stress about not ovulating yet... maybe you are just a day or two off... I was suppose to ovulate today and I didn't either... maybe it is the weather... ????

It will come and your AF will be on time... This one will be your cycle.

Sue- always remember the March thread tradition, wear white pants when you want your period to come.

Jamie- Okay I can jog with you if we can walk for a bit in the middle. I am really slow though. Dude can usually walk while I jog. LOL

Barbara- still thinking of your and your ER!!

Hugs to all. I think a lot of us will be busy in August!

Thanks everyone for your well wishes. They were able to retrieve only 6 but as long as I have 3 to transfer I will be so happy.
I am sore and really tired.
I am stressing out because I dont know what is going to happen. I hope this isnt tmi BUT dh wasnt able to produce while I was at the medical office. So they waited 2hrs then they sent us home to see if can produce at home. (the nurse said to me, I hope he doesnt take to long because the eggs cant last that long) I hope she didnt say that to him. because he came home and it took another 1 1/2 to finally produce so by the time he got to the medical office it was hrs later.
The retrival was at 1 pm and he didnt bring the sample in until 6 pm.
So now I am so nervous that everything is going to be ok. and we didnt waste this cycle.
UUGGGHHH.,,
I just wanted to fill everyone in, I will post tomorrow.
I am going to sleep now.
God bless everyone.
Barbara

Barbara, congrats on the ER and getting some eggies. I am so sorry that DH had difficulty collecting. I'm sure he had a lot on his mind. To me the waiting to see how the eggies do was harder than the 2ww. Try to keep your mind occupied and let us know how the fert report goes.

Amy, I have very mild m/s, but other that I really don't have any major symptoms. What I do have comes and goes.

We have our 2nd u/s tomorrow, and I'm very eager to see how everything is going. Hope you all are doing well.

Barbara-6 eggs is not bad at all! Sorry your DH had a rough go with things, but I am sure you got his boys to their mates in time. I can't wait to hear your fertilization report tomorrow. Thinking very good positive thoughts for you!

Jana-good luck tomorrow! I am sure everything will be great. And then will you put up a ticker???

Barbara - I'm sorry that this whole situation has been so stressful for you...falling asleep before your trigger shot, DH's sample...but I'm sure everything will go well. I'm anxious to hear the fert report tomorrow.

Jana- Good luck on u/s #2. I'm sure the little guy/girl is nice and strong...how fun to get to see his/her progress. I hope the m/s stays mild for you!

Jen - I'm so glad things went well with telling your job. I think anticipating a bad reaction is always worse than reality. I think I mentioned in one of my posts that I was really trying to keep my IF treatments quiet from my bosses, but I ended up having to "show my cards" when I had to take so many days off for the surgery and they really coudn't be more supportive. It takes a big load off my mind and I'm sure your work situation does too. Hope the m/s goes away soon. I've got to say that that is the ONE part of pregnancy that I am not looking forward to at all, but if I get pregnant I will take it for sure!

Happy Hump Day Ladies!!

Barbara - Good luck with the fert report today .
I know this won't help now, but didn't your DH need to give a sample to have frozen when you started the IVF process? We had to have a sample on ice just in case something like that happens... it is A LOT of stress for the DHs... Congrats on the 6 follies!! I'll be praying for your little ones!!

Jana - Good Luck today!!

Sue - any news on the big "O" today?

We were released to the OB today. I really hate to leave the RE, because I trust them so much. Our little one is measuring 14.8mm and HB is 172. It was wonderful to see that everything is still progressing nicely.

Barbara, any news on the fert report?
