Today however, cramps have ceased and all is quiet, except that I still feel hormonal and am peeing a lot. I usually spot by now, but I think the progesterone is holding the lining back.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers - I just know we have some 's out there and your symptoms sure sound suspicious.

You are so right. All day Saturday and Sunday I had bad PMS - and peeing alot more than usual. Went to bed early I was completely exhausted by 6:30pm.

Wow, that's interesting. Sounds like you had cramping though. I have had cramping but no spotting and I usually spot, but being on progesterone I don't know if that is preventing the spotting. Are you on progesterone? Sorry for all the questions...just getting very nervous (my beta is Thurs).

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that you come back with a nice big beta!

Well I am being hopeful, but my gut says I am not prego. I have had very mild cramping on my right side over the last 2 weeks. I was extra tired one day, but that was it. I did start spotting this morning-- quite a bit more now as the day has gone on. If it didn't work, we'll just move forward and schedule our 2nd IVF. It is so expensive, but we have to do what we have to do. I am just grateful to have options.

I wish you girls all a lot of positive vibes. I will pray to St. Gerard for all of us waiting for the BFP..
For Motherhood

O good Saint Gerard, powerful intercessor before God and Wonderworker of our day, I call upon thee and seek thy aid. Thou who on earth didst always fulfill God’s designs, help me to do the holy Will of God. Beseech the Master of Life, from Whom all paternity proceedeth, to render me fruitful in offspring, that I may raise up children to God in this life and heirs to the Kingdom of His Glory in the world to come. Amen.
