My Beta is tomorrow and I'm driving myself crazy with the wondering. I can't read anything into my symtpoms as I always have sore boob before AF and the constipation and other things could be from the Progresterone and Estrogen I'm on. I wish tomorrow would get here soon.

Mari78, what time is your beta scheduled for? Mine is at 9:00, but then we have to wait till the afternoon to get results. I will be on pins and needles then. I took the day off as I don't think I could get any work done at work. Good luck.

I've got my beta #1 tomorrow, too! I know EXACTLY how you two are feeling right now, Hope and Maria. Hang in there with me! Did either of you POAS? Not me. I'm trying so hard to avoid that. I do have one test stick leftover from last month. It's like it calls to me from my bathroom. Evil little thing! I don't really have any symptoms to show I might be preggers this time either. I know my progesterone and estradiol patches are mimicking early pregnancy. What a tease! We don't have much longer. I hope tomorrow brings you the incredible joy of a beautiful beta # and a confirmation of a !

I am resisting the urge to POAS. I don't have any at home so I would have to go buy one. I thought about doing it early tomorrow morning before going to the beta, but then I'm thinking no just wait. Like you Amy, those meds may be mimicing pregger symptoms. So I can't really tell. I do know that when I was pregnant with my son, I didn't feel anything either, so I will just have to wait till tomorrow. It's nice to have some other who have theirs the same day. We can share the stress of it. Good luck to you.

Migmel, don't know about the cramping and I never really had any or could tell I had any. As far as the temp. I do know that in a "normal" TTC cycle our temps will run above the 98 degrees. Probably somewhere between 99-100 because of ovulation and it won't come back down until guess who shows . If you are concerned I would just call your RE. I think cramping is normal. Only would I get a little worried if your temp went over 101 or at 101. Just a thought. Other might have some more experience.

I'm officially in 2 WW

Today was my ET and we transferred 6 blasts (4 good and the other 2 OK). I didn't have any grade As but praying the "good"ones at least one will make it. WE've transferrred 3 and 5 embies on our other 2 IVFs with BFN. Hoping to increase our odds. Out of 18 embryos we have nothing to freeze.

I've been napping since I got home but am already a little bored. I bought 2 books to try and keep me resting more at night.

My prescan revealed some OHSS--enlarged ovaries 10x10, small fluid on liver but not concerned. I am on a strict low sodium,high protein, water consuming diet for the next 1 1/2 weeks.

Beta is June 2nd (not quite 2 weeks).

Hope and Amy, I am really hoping for a for us tomorrow!!! I am so anxious and I doubt I'll get any sleep tonight. I am a little worried because today I suddenly stopped having my daily cramps and my bloatness. I am still constipated though. I am trying not to read too much into everything.

I hope tomorrow is one of the happiest days of our lives !!! My Beta is also scheduled for 9am Hope. I have no idea when they will give me the call to let me know the results but I hope it won't take them too long because I'll go crazy!!! I am planning a movie marathon tonight, + reading (if I can concentrate long enough).

Melanie, I hope you start feeling better soon. Don't get too scared with the cramps, in my 1st 4 days after ET I had strong cramps, bloated feeling, was gassy and so tired all the time I spent most days sleeping. I hope you start feeling better but if you don't, don't wait and call your doctor, he will be able to tell you what to do and also confort you and take all your doubts away.


Emilysmom, here!!! I hope your 2ww is nice and smooth. Congratulations on your ET. You're PUPO now!!
