***Sweet Pea Check-in*** 9/9
This discussion has been closed.
Re: ***Sweet Pea Check-in*** 9/9
**Signature Warning**
As for me, I have been taking progesterone pills and suppositories (no shots for my Dr). I apologize as I'm a little loopy---the nurse told me one of the side effects of the progesterone pill is that people tend to feel drunk. Seriously. So I'm a little loopy right now as I type this---took my night pill a little bit ago.
I was waiting for the call today to see of we are moving forward with my ET on Thursday---we had 3 embies on Day 1 and so far on day 4, all have grown!!! So I was told today that the transfer is definitely on!! After my freak out on Saturday, this is fantastic news! Here's hoping they continue to grow for Thursday!
I go in tomorrow for a pre-ET acupuncture session. It's like non-drug Valium, I swear. So hopefully that will help relax me.
I hope to have some good news to report on Thursday!!!
Ok, I'm off to bed. Btw, is anyone getting crazy tired?!? I about passed out at 9:30 last night. I NEVER go to bed before 11:30p or so.
Goodnight, sweet peas!
Oh! QOTD: I have always wanted to go to the Amunpura resort somewhere in the pacific...that would be ideal.
@marissa6609 my doc had me take a Valium prior to my transfer and I was not a fan. It gave me an awful headache and slightly naseous which was no fun on the four hour drive back. I would have rather done without it.
@Jzyla - good luck today on your transfer!
@ all my 2ww ladies- how are you all not going crazy??!! I'm 2dp5dt and I'm going nuts. This morning I popped up out of bed at 3:45 wide awake. I had nothing else to do so I put together some short ribs in my slow cooker. I think there is seriously something wrong with me. On the bright side there is no telling what sort of projects I'll complete in an effort to keep myself busy and away from those evil preg tests in my bathroom cabinet. 9 more days until beta!!
Qod: I would love to go on a cruise of the French Polynesia or to Southeast Asia.
Best of luck to everyone!

Hi Sweet peas!!
Best of luck to those stimming and wit ER/ET. Congrats to all my fellow PUPO.
@crazygirl7882 I am totally losing it! Cant focus on anything, I have been busy with my payroll budget for next year all week!! I'm over this waiting.
My Beta will be on Monday @ 9dp5dt and i will only have the results on Tuesday.
I actually feel like I made a huge error in judgement, I find it difficult to withhold the truth when someone asks me "where were you yesterday", so i've told a few female colleagues. Not alot of friends and family though. Now I'm super frightened that if we have bad news next week, everyone is going to be in my face and I wont be able to handle it. My BFF works here as well, and she said i should take a day off, if it comes to that, and she will explain to the ladies and ask them to not mention anything to me.
Next time (hopefully not), i will put in Vac Leave for 2 weeks and do the IVF, so I dont have to explain anything.
@crazygirl7882 I'm 6dp6dt. Beta is Saturday, but I will POAS before to mentally prepare. Thinking back to how devastating last time was makes me very, very nervous. Waiting is emotional torture. Hang in there. We all get through it somehow!

I've really only told a few people (my MIL included) and it's like they listen but don't understand.. 2 weeks after I started BCP everyone was asking if IVF worked.. So annoying. My MIL asks daily for updates on "babies"... She somehow twisted me saying, "one embryo=50% chance of successful implantation as per our RE" into, we have "a 50% chance of miscarriage" ..... I'm done sharing.
I got the official phone call, the long awaiting FET is scheduled for tomorrow at 12:15. My lining is now 15, my progesterone in 6,819 (or 68). I'm not sure if it's going to get much better than that.

So happy to read all of the updates! Lots going on.
I had my ET this morning. One beautiful blast transferred. Having any to freeze is highly unlikely, but I'll know for sure next week.

@Pintobean39 alright for a pony!! Lol
One of my very dear and close gf's gave me a fertility charm today. It was really thoughtful. It's making me feel more optimistic about this cycle.
Sounds like the er and et are going well today!! Keeping my fx for all you lovely ladies.

When do you plan to POAS???
Official diagnosis: Unexplained IF. I am 32. I have low ovarian reserve (low AMH), and poor egg quality. I've also been diagnosed with mild glandular developmental arrest (lining problems, detected with EFT).
We are using open ID donor sperm. IUIs #1-7=BFN. IVF September 2014 antagonist protocol, 8R,5M,3F, 5 day transfer of 1 morula = BFN. IVF#2 planned for January 2015 (antagonist protocol + HGH).
I have an update...my ET was scheduled for tomorrow. But I got about 4 calls today from the Dr office. I was in back-to-back meetings, phone was on silent, so I missed them (yesterday I was on "phone watch" waiting for their call to confirm Thursday's ET...). So I happened to hear the phone vibrating and answered it---apparently, 5th call.
They said my 3 little embies are "slow growing"---it's Day 5, btw, and I was scheduled for ET on day 6 with a PGD. They said they now can't do the PGD and they recommend I come in RIGHT NOW for the ET. Or, I can wait and see what happens tomorrow but will likely not have any embies left. So I rearranged my schedule and hopped on over! 3 little embies transferred!
Wish me luck!
@emmuffy sounds like a rough morning, I hope you getting to feeling better. I did smile a little about the bumps, I can't tell you how many times that I've been sick in the car and it seems like they hit every bump they can find. FX for good fertility report!

Sorry posting a bit late this time. Congrats to all the PUPO ladies and those having ET this week!!
Big ((hugs)) and good luck to those who have ER! Wishing you all a quick and easy recovery!
As for me, still on stims...have blood work and u/s on Monday. I'm literally doing every superstitious thing I can think of to thicken my lining for this FET...drinking pomegranete juice...started taking extra folic acid, laying upside down with my legs on the wall, red raspberry leaf tea, etc.
Anything I'm missing?? hahaha I feel like a complete nutso, but after all this, I don't want my lining to be what's keeping me from my FET :-)
