@JuliaAnn86 yeah bed rest is not fun, my RE had me on bed rest for the rest of the day the day of the transfer and the following day as well, I was bored out of my mind! Good luck to you with the bed rest!
to the rest of the ladies including u monica if any of you want to exchange number and we can group message just cause its easier i swear im not a creeper lol but its not to talk to someone none of my friends know im goin through this so its tough and these threads help so much
Congrats to all the PUPO ladies. So many of us in this TWW together.
My transfer went really well. No pain from the catheter which in the past has always been the case. Embroyologist said that both snowflakes looked great. Yesterday I slept most of the day, today I've been resting and hysterically crying. Not sure where it came from but just so scared this won't work again. Each transfer doesn't make it easier. My DH told me I need to remain positive and have faith and I'm usually so good about it but this time I'm so emotional.
I totally feel ya @ChristinaV2015 At one moment I'm feeling fine and trying to be positive and in the next moment the even the smallest thing can make me start welling up with tears, it's so tough! Hang in there!
I've missed other positive tests for people so I wish wonderful pregnancies to you all too! To those of you who didn't get the results you wished for I say I'm so sorry. I have been there and can remember just sitting at work crying in the bathroom when my AF came. It never gets easier.
Well I am just devastated, I went in today for my follow up beta and the dr called and left a voicemail saying my numbers werent where they want to see them and to come in on the 21st to be tested again, I emailed him asking if the chances were still good or if they were poor and he told me there is a small chance for it to develop into a normal pregnancy. I am at work trying to cope privately and get through the day but I just want to curl up and cry. Just when I feel like I can start to find some hope I am crushed all over again.

@kjplaza - Wow, that seems really inconsiderate of the dr to say your beta was 'where they wanted to see it' and then turn around and tell you the chances weren't good when you asked how things were looking. I would demand that they give you your beta values immediately.

@Monica54321 sorry it was supposed to say my levels weren't where they should be, change has been made now. I had POAS and the line wasn't getting any darker from a few days ago so I went in feeling worried but was hoping the blood test would put my fears at ease.

@kris10cdn yea for some reason my clinic always does day 5 and day 10 after transfer. each time I get pregnant I just assume that's gonna be the hard part but I've come to realize I'm in for a much tougher road than I prepared for.

@kjplaza Don't completely give up hope. I wish I could remember what my betas were but they were really low and not doubling the way they should. They eventually found a heartbeat but it was half of what it should have been. My doctor actually sat me down and talked to me about my options for natural vs assisted miscarriages. I now have an extremely healthy 14 month old.
I just have to share I just did my PIO injection in a rest stop parking lot! It was too spooky to go in and I was already an hour past my normal time. Got to love traveling and trying to keep up with these meds. Transfer tomorrow at 11:30. I'm super nervous.
Thanks for the encouragement @blairbecky78! I go in tomorrow for my bloodwork, today I started out in a funk but just trying to really focus on being positive and put it all in Gods hands, worrying won't make anything better. Good luck k with your transfer tomorrow!

Hi ladies! I'm a little late to the game, but I just found this thread! First, congrats to all with BFPs and I'm so sorry to those with BFNs. I know how both of those feel.
I am scheduled for my FET on Black Friday, not sure what to make of that! I have a beautiful 11 month old baby boy from my fresh cycle, and DH and I would love to give him a sibling! We're both only children, so it's pretty important to us!
We have 2 frosties, a 5AA and a 5AB. Fingers crossed for a successful pregnancy because we lose our IF insurance at the end of the year, and it's expensive enough!
In other news--these meds already have me up at night and getting up to pee at least once a night... ugh!
@TwoDogMomma Our stories are so similar. Good luck on your transfer. My insurance wouldn't let us try again until we had proven a year of infertility. In other words, not until my son was over a year old. I wouldn't have frozen embryos if I hadn't already proven it. *eyeroll*
Transfer went well and was much quicker than my first. One embryo looked awesome but the other hd already hatched with some fragmentation. We went ahead and put them both in anyway. Now to wait and see!
@Hoping4Success Thanks! Good luck to you, too! It's ridiculous to already feel like I did pregnant without any chance of actually being pregnant at the moment! I hope your bathroom trips are a good sign!
@blairbecky78 Insurance companies are ridiculous! I guess the years you proved before didn't count anymore? So weird! We're losing ours because my husband got another job, and neither of our companies offer it. Well, mine does kinda, but the premium is $655 twice a month... I'd be better off just paying out of pocket... Anyway, good luck!
Link to the tracker here! Please feel free to follow the link & update your info... especially beta dates for the folks who transferred in the last week.
@Kris10cdn Right?? i was checking my phone all day at work and was preparing all night to at least have a little more clarity by the end of today as to how things are going, i want to stay positive but i also want to start to prepare myself for the negative and now just another restless night of worry.

Good morning ladies. Good luck to everyone transferring and PUPO this week. Hopefully the holidays will make the TWW pass quickly!
@kjplaza - thinking about you and hope you get great news today. FX.
AFM - going in for a 3rd beta this AM. My RE doesn't typically do one but yesterday I felt like all symptoms disappeared (pretty much the exact thing that happened when I m/c) so I asked and they said not a problem. Would love to head home for Thanksgiving with a clear head.
