(((hugs))) to firesiren on your BFFN.

Good luck to ycristina84 on your ET.  Stick embies, stick.

Good luck to Ccjones85 and Thecuddleeffect on your ER.

T&P's to everyone who is struggling, regardless of where they are in their cycle.

Update: Had my pre-op appointment and my blood pressure was high, both at the beginning and end of the appointment.  I guess it was high back in January too, adn the nurse didn't mention it.  My RE told me to get a blood pressure machine and start checking twice a day, and if it stays elevated to see my PCP immediately.  The two readings I did yesterday were high - so I'm kind of freaking out.  Calling PCP as soon as they open. 

QOTD: There were 3 other babies in the nursery with me that had the exact same first and middle name. 

pinkmickey24

Today I am 3dp3dt. And it is going by so slow. I think I am starting to make things up in my head. My name was popular and I hated it. It is Heather and in high school there were 4 of us in one class.

Is your middle name Marie?

dalmatinka77

Update:ER went well. They put me under so I didn't have to experience the 10-15 min procedure. For those who are about to do their first ER you should know that it feels like period cramps. They asked me to rate my pain from 1 - 10 (10 being the highest) and I said 2. my neighbor in the recovery room said hers was worse than the first time she did an ER and this time she rated it a 3....While DH and I were there we were told they retrieved 13 follies from me. However, when they defrosted the first vial of DH's sperm nothing was found. DH said it felt like he got punched in the stomach. I'm not sure what happened to me, I basically shut down my emotions and smiled and said "ok no problem on to the next"They didn't want us waiting there all day to hear about the other vials so they sent us home so I could rest with a promise of a phone call. Our nurse called later than afternoon and told us that all she was told is that we still have 3 vials frozen. Which we assume means that they were able to find something in the remaining vials. I with the lab called me and gave a more detailed explanation! I'll get a fert report today though.ET is scheduled for Mon 5/28. I hope there's something to transfer!!  QOTD: Yes, my name was popular. My name is Maria.....do we really need to bring up all the songs that people sang to me?

delino

Good morning flowers! Transfer was yesterday and I'm hopeful today. This will most likely change from day to day or moment by moment, but it's out of my hands.QOTD: There was one other girl with my name. I hated my name as a child and told my mom that I was going to change it.

eegeekwife

QOTD - No, growing up I was the only Holly in my class

 

I'm going crazy in the 2ww, my emotions are everywhere.

Good Luck to those who are having ER and ET

greely0729

No updates here, but I'm hoping the best for everyone here!

QOTD: There were 3 of us with the same name in my class but I graduated with around 700 people so in the grand scheme of things, it wasn't as popular as Elizabeth or Sara(h).

crt0323

No update on me except that I may be just a little crazier than I was yesterday!

QOTD: my name wasn't really that popular. In a high school of around 1000 students, there were only 3 of us.  

AngnShaun

Nothing new till tomorrow night.

My name is Angela, i didnt know anyone else with that name (that were my age) my mom has 2 bffs with that name though.

Lacyj67

Still 2wwing! Halfway through now though hopefully the next six days go faster than the first! No signs of anything but i keep grabbing my boobs every morning to see if they are tender yet! LOL

Qotd: name is Lacy and no i was always the only one with my name, think its still kinda rare too

Ironmom2be

Trigger tonight and ER tomorrow. Yesterday's u/s showed 15 follies between 12mm-23mm. 

Congrats to all BFPs

((hugs)) to all BFNs

GL to those with upcoming ERs/ETs and also those in the 2ww.

Aegis, GL with you BP. (hugs) 

BAKERMOMHDS

Good luck to all the ER and ET's!!!!! Wishing you the BEST!!!

I'm day 7 of stims...exhausted, joint pain, headaches, nausea...not complaining, it's part of the process!

QOTD : I'm a 'Heather' as well .  My BFF's name is 'Heather Marie'... I'm OK with my name. I do remember a time in middle school when I tried to go by my middle name..that didn't go over so well..ahhhh the awkward memories of middle school! If DH and I are successful our children will have *normal* traditional names .. We are kinda "old school".

ycristina84

Waiting to go in for my ET. Wearing lucky fuzzy pink socks we are transferring 2. One 6 cell and one 7 cell and embryologist said the were "top notch excellent"! I was embarrassed that I cried when they handed me the picture. One of these could be my baby and I never thought I'd get this far.

 

Thank you guys for all the support! Good luck to all who need it, my thoughts are with you all

QOTD: I'm a Cristina and I'm always the only one. I really love my name. 

purpleyes1081

Was told not to worry about my high estrogen level thank god. RE said right ovary is developing a lot of follies n their growing. I believe 15 in total. Was told I my trigger Friday n ER will be Sunday. Was just informed to lower gonal f to 75 units n not to take menopur today, thank god. And I have another monitoring tomorrow.

I just wanted to tell you that I felt the exact same way when they handed me our picture! It was such an amazing feeling, we didnt think we would get this far either! Best of luck to you and the rest of our IF girls, Specially the mayflowers! 

JenScott-4-09

GL to everyone and big hugs to those who need them! 

Update: My ET is tomorrow!! EEEK! I am so excited, I don't know how I am going to sleep tonight.

QOTD: My name is Jenny, and there were always many girls with my name growing up. My kindegarten class alone had 5. The unit I work on now has 5! I do love my name eventhough it is very popular.
