FET October- week october 18th

[volyangel]

Ro-a line is a line! And yea, its very hard to have a false positive...and a faint line at 6dp5dt is fantastic! You would have had to do a trigger shot to have some kind of false positive. Your DH prob just doesnt want to get his hopes up...thats how mine was too! Sounds like good news coming your way! I wish I could be on bedrest but I have to work and take care of my DS, and he does not give me a break by any means...so trying to take it easy when I can!

Hello Ladies!!

A lot going on at work today.. I've started to do this post a half dozen times before getting interuppted!!!!

Hairwiz - I do the estrogen shots! I find it's easier if I do them standing up, so I know I'm hitting the right spot on my big ole booty. I do them on Tues and Fri. at the same time as my nightly progesterone shot. Hubby is at work at that time, so it's up to me to get the job done. I do bleed a lot from them, but I'm also on the Lovenox. So I'm sure that's why.. Good luck to you!!!

Beijos - I sure hope you are right!!! My first (and only) pregancy was a surprise.. so if I did have any early symptoms, I didn't notice them or pay attention to them at all. I didn't even realize I was pregnant until the first loss. But I do remember with my fresh cycle.. I didn't feel these little twinges or the "fishies" at all.. So I am hoping and praying this is a REALLY good sign!!!!

Andrea _ Sooo sooo happy for you!! Take it easy, rest up and enjoy your slave!!! hehee You definatley deserve it!!!

Abby - At least you are seeing a + that's a good sign!!! Can't wait to hear about your beta on Thurs!!!!

Irra - It's still early!!!! Don't give up hope!! This is why I stay away from those pee sticks!!!! My fingers are still crossed for you! And good luck with your citizenship!!!! How exciting!!!

JC - Try not to lose hope!!!!! I know what you mean about the full feeling after eating.. I thinks it's from being so bloated.. but it doesn't seem to stop me.. I just want to eat all day long!!! At least here at work I can't..

OK.. people here at work are driving me nutso!!! Just a busy day, and I'm a crazy woman pumped full of hormones..

I'm feeling things that I don't remember feeling with my fresh cycle.. so I'm getting excited! I remember, last time I didn't notice that I just wasn't feeling anything, until I did the pee stick the day before the beta and saw the BFN.. but I've been feeling little twinges and "fishies" this whole time!! I'm hoping for good news!

Hope everyone is enjoying their Tuesday!!!!!!

Hairwiz-

To me I didnt think the Del Estrogen shots were that hard to do. But I was scared the first time I did any injections (which was last year)...so I used a midwife who had me lay on a bed on my side wnd she shot me in the hip. Tiny blood every once in a while..but nothing major. My BF wont do them as he is too chicken and is scared of needles (sissy man)...PIO shots are a whole different ball game and are a PAIN! But I now do my Del Estrogen independently no help from anyone and hardly ever bleed or hurt. PIO are a different story..ugh, and now I got a right hip that has welts (that look like poison ivy welts or something, plus a small bruise)...Needless to say...Im not doing any more injections on my welted hip for a few days! My God...what we go through...Good luck and I bet you'll do better at it then you expect...remember practice makes perfect!

Thanks Nay- tonight will be the first shot,and DH will do it if he gets home in time.Not sure what I will do if he doesn't get home in time.
I don't do progesterone yet,but when it's time I have to do suppositories.
I will try it standing up,and see how it goes.

[hairwiz]

Ann-Thanks! Is the PIO the progesterone shots? I think I'm glad to do the suppositories.LOL Even though I'm not thrilled to do that either.I was worried about the lupron,and that has been a piece of cake.
I can't wait to get a transfer date.

Hairwiz - The very first estrogen shot made me feel really bad the first time. It was like a weird feeling washed over me.. but the rest of them haven't been bad since... I was whinning about the estrogen shot, because I forgot how awful the progesterone in oil shots were!! The estrogen are not nearly as bad as the PIO!!! I do the nightly shots AND suppositories!!!!

Good luck!!!!!!

Good morning Ladies,
I hope all is well.
Anyway I really don’t feel good it all started yesterday I just feel like AF is coming or something like cramps they are not painful but they are there. It’s just a weird feeling that I can’t explain and like I said yesterday I saw a small more like a drop of brownish mucus on the TP. I don’t even want to ask my nurse because they can’t tell me anything I just have to hold on until Thursday I took another HPT and it was +.
Having IF issues are so difficult and emotional and just mental exhausting. I am a very positive person but now I just don’t feel all the positive I am still praying and hoping for the best but at the same time I have to prepare myself for whatever is coming my way.
Renee~ that is funny, how are you doing?

Ann~ so sorry that you are going through this but hang in there you never know.

Hang in there, the slight cramping that feels just like AF coming is also the SAME feeling as early pregnancy in my experience. It could be good! The postive HPT is definately something to be excited about!

Hairwiz- With any intramuscular injection, it may help to draw an even plus/cross on your butt and make sure to stay within the upper right quadrant. Draw back and make sure there's no blood before injection. I find it easier to bend over a table or couch...

Hi Ladies, freaking out a bit. Hope someone can help calm me down! My ultrasound was yesterday 10-18 and like I said the lining was 16mm kinda big. But trying not to worry too much about it. I thought my transfer would be Friday (5 days after what would my ovulation date) My doctor now tells me the transfer will be Tuesday 10-26 (another week of waiting) on CD 24, is this too late? I thought the whole idea was to make the transfer as close to the day they were frozen?
I couldn't really understand his explanation but it had something to do with him not getting my email and the embryo freezer. You think its hard enough going thru this, try it in a country where you are not fluent in the language!
So how long does it take to defrost the embryos? My clinic uses the fast freeze method?
I am worried my lining will grow to super-unnatural portions and ruin my chances.
Its not the day I was hoping for. And now I have a super headache probably due to high estrogen but since my clinic never checks blood levels EVER I guess I will not know. So should I be worried? Should I call him back? I don't feel very easy about this.

jcbaby - trust me, I know how awful you feel. I have been either seeing very faint lines from yesterday to absolutely nothing on different (early response pee sticks, allegedly) pee sticks. I even got DH to come and he agreed there was a faint second line but the fact that the line has not been getting any darker and it is 7dp5dt today, does not give me any hope. I am an emotional mess, crying at the drop of a hat. Somehow I made it through my citizenship interview without bawling my eyes out and being thrown out of the building! I think DH is still holding out some hope for beta Friday but he is also thinking the FET did not work despite having a hatching blast and AH on the other blast.
