Talking about symptoms, in the last 2 days a feel like the sleeping beauty. I am starting to get worried!!!! All I do is sleep all day long. I am not working but I do have things to do during the day but the energy is just not there. Yesterday I woke up, had breakfast, started reading a book and then I slept most of the day. I woke up took a shower ate, started watching tv then fell asleep again. Last night I went to sleep at midnight and woke up at 7:30am. Again same as yesterday, ate, read and slept. Woke up, ate and slept until 4:30pm my time!!! Geezzz. It is so weird. I am only on my 3dp2dt. Also, embarassing as it is to say this is anyone else gassy?!! My belly is bloated as a ballon and when I am not sleeping I am, well.... farting!! (yeeewww!!)
Isn't it too soon for all this?!!!! Tomorrow I have German class and I am afraid I won't be able to keep my eyes open or will fart in the glass (could it get more embarassing than that?!!!) LOL

LOL, that's hysterical Maria! I have to admit, I did also have the "gas" syndrome - felt like I was going to rocket somewhere!
Sleeping is a good sign, I personally think - means your energy may be being used elsewhere (hmmm wonder where...). I will keep my and keep you in my prayers. Quote:

What would ya'll consider to be spotting? I can't tell if this is a very light cycle for me of if I am just spotting. Any thoughts from the experts?
Other than some twinges in my abdomen, I am not having any other symptoms. My boobs were sore a few days back, but that's not an issue now.

First off, Congrats Jenifer on your BFP!! That's awesome!
I gave blood this morning and now we wait for the news. I did another HPT this morning and it is still Negative. I have been through this so many times now, I just want to move on to the next one. I requested my records when I gave blood so I should get them within 2 weeks so I can see a new RE. I can't believe after 2 years and probably about $50,000 plus, we still do not have our baby. I never imagined DH and I would be here. We will keep going until we get our BFP!

I'm still praying for you. I know what you mean about the years of trying I've been at it for 13!!! lots of breaks in between though. I still haven't bought an hpt and it is less then 24 hours before beta. I honestly thought I was out yesterday morning but still NO AF and no more spotting even on the insert thingy for the progesterone! Mild cramps this afternoon and very gasey so it could be poop cramps Cathy

Jen - I am so sorry, but will keep my
for a miracle. I admire your courage and tenacity - those are the qualities that will get you there! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers sweetie. P.S. Let us know how it goes with the new RE and if his protocol is any different. I'm exploring doing the same exact thing if I bomb out, which currently I'm feeling will be the case! Quote:

I know! I thought about looking for something just for the coverage. lol Most companies make you work there for X number of years before the coverage begins unfortunately. I am sure a lot of women tried that. It would be so nice to have coverage though.

walgreens has coverage that starts at 90 days. benefits for part time too. it's almost worth me going there to get a side job. you have to wait 5 years for ivf though, and once you are there that long you're coverage limits are $850,000. 65,000 the first year. i still have tubes, so i don't mind going back to iui's. i'm seriously thinking about applying.
