Hi ladies, and happy POASing to my fellow POASers, jeanna and Erin.
Mine, as expected, was negative. I got my mind fluck symptom this morning, which is feeling queasy/nauseous. Last time, 3 days after transfer I got seriously nauseous and actually vomited, which my RE said was due to the first big surge of HCG getting into my system.
So today is 4dpt and I'm trying not to read too much into this being the same thing. Last time, I got my +HPT 2 days later, and I have been having a feeling for a while now that if I am pregnant, I won't get my positive on 5dp5dt like last time, so hopefully I won't start freaking out if tomorrow's test is negative as well.
No big plans for today, other than to take it easy, since I'm not feeling so hot. DH wanted to go out to eat, but that's been put on hold until I see how I feel. I told him about the nausea and he asked if I wanted to go get sushi (that's what we were eating the last time I got sick).
Anyway, enough about me, how are all of you fine ladies doing today?

Hi! Happy Sunday!
RE nurse called today to see how everything was going, which was very nice. She asked if I was taking my meds and thank goodness she did because I forgot to take my crinone this morning. Oops!
Already posted in yesterdays 2WW, but lab called yesterday and they were able to freeze a total of 4! I am soooo grateful for that news.
Ugh, Jeanna that's the worst!! I'm sorry, but you will have your own happy news to share very shortly!
So, I have been having a bloated feeling and sharp pangs everyone once and awhile since yesterday. But I think it is a little high up in my belly to be anything.
Hahaha! Love this. I hide mine in a drawer in my jewlery box so my DH doesn't see them all.
Well, I POAS again this morning..... and it was a BFP! It was really faint, so I'm not exactly celebrating yet, but no question about it being there. Anxious to see if it gets darker over the next couple of days, and then to see what my beta is on Tuesday with a repeat on Thursday. I feel like I've gotten so many BFP's before, and then everything goes to hell, so I'm trying to just think positive. After everything we've been through this has got to be "it"... right?!?!
Negative again today. I have decided not to give up hope until tuesday. After that I am going to call it and open a bottle of wine! Luckily DH was out of town last week and this week so I don't have to hide the HPTs. Kind of glad I have time to process good or bad before he gets home.
This morning after breakfast I felt a little nauseated through church and at the store. The cashier smelled like heavy cigarette smoke too and it seemed to bother me more than normal. This was a first for nausea since the cycle started. And my boobs still hurt but not horrible. But, probably the meds so we will see very soon!!!!
6/2011- DH started chemo for testicular cancer
9/2011- Remission!!!!
6/2012- IUI #1 natural with HCG shot- banked sperm (BFN)
7/2012- IUI #2 natural with HCG shot- banked sperm (BFN)
-changed RE-
11/13/12- IVF #1 Bravella 225/Menopur 150/Ganarelix, triggered with Lupron. 11/27- 8R/2M + 2 mature next day/ 4 fertilized/ 2 grade III with 20% fragmentation transferred back on day 3. No frosties. BFN. Boo
Plan: New semen analysis in January and #2 IVF hopefully with fresh sample in March.
Congrats on more frosties! I have 4 too, and am hoping (as I'm sure you are) I won't need them, but it's reassuring to know they are there. I think it helps DH feel better about the possibility of this cycle failing, knowing we should be able to do FET, which is easier, especially for him!
IVF #1: 9/11: ER: 12R, 11M, 10F, No Frosties; 5dt: 2 blasts, 1 morula; DD born 6/3/12
IVF #2: 11/12-12/12: ER: 20R, 20M, 16F, 4 Frosties; 5dt: 3 blasts, DS born 8/9/13
Jeanna, I don't really have to hide mine. DH seems pretty clueless and just waits for me to tell him if/when I'm pregnant, since he knows I can't keep a secret like that. He doesn't ask, and he doesn't tease me for testing.
Erin, CONGRATS! We knew that sucker was coming your way, just had to wait a little longer. I'm going to use the math of being two days behind you, so I don't expect to get mine before Tuesday. If it doesn't show up then, I will probably start to be concerned, but the good news is I'll know for sure Wednesday anyway, so three days max at this point. Looking forward to hearing good things from your beta on Tuesday!
IVF #1: 9/11: ER: 12R, 11M, 10F, No Frosties; 5dt: 2 blasts, 1 morula; DD born 6/3/12
IVF #2: 11/12-12/12: ER: 20R, 20M, 16F, 4 Frosties; 5dt: 3 blasts, DS born 8/9/13
Sorry POAS didn't go well for you today. Hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday will be your day!
IVF #1: 9/11: ER: 12R, 11M, 10F, No Frosties; 5dt: 2 blasts, 1 morula; DD born 6/3/12

Yes this is it!!! Oh so glad it turned out to be BFP! I bet it was just the concentration of your pee (hope that wasn't too gross, but then we do talk about everything on this board!) that was the BFN before. Beta is Tuesday! That seems so soon and very exciting!
