QOTD: What is your favorite part of fall?

Justone13 · September 2014

Good morning sweet peas!! Hope your week has started off good do far!! I'm just trucking along on these craptastic bcps!!

Can't wait to hear some updates from you lovely ladies today! Im on my phone today so I'll move people when I get home tonight.

QOTD: pumpkin, sweaters, jeans, boots, bond fires... The list goes on. I love everything about fall!!

Giants721 · September 2014

Good morning Sweet Peas!

I have my transfer tomorrow. The embryologist called yesterday on day 3 and said out of the 8 we have 7 "top graded and high" embryos. Fx that one snuggles in tightly tomorrow.

Justone13 · September 2014

@Giants721‌ wow!! That sounds really promising!! I hope your et goes well!!

beachbum913 · September 2014

My beta is scheduled for Oct 10th, which seems like a lifetime away. Just trying to keep busy until then. I'm also waiting to hear if we have any quality embryos to freeze.

@Giants721‌ GL with transfer!

QOTD- I'm much more of a summer girl, so I hate to see it go, but I do enjoy camping in October.

Justone13 · September 2014

@emilee871‌ did you get any estimated dates yet or are you still waiting on your WTF appt? We might be on the same schedule

Eta remembered you had a wtf appt scheduled

Bandy514 · September 2014

3dp5dt, trying to remain positive....6 days until beta! Although, we got some good news in that 3 of our embryos made it to freeze yesterday!

QOTD: Definitely the cooler temperatures and everything pumpkin flavored!

Justone13 · September 2014

@Bandy514‌ that's awesome that you have some snow babies!!!

Tiffany0614 · September 2014

@Giants721‌ Congrats on such a wonderful number!

bazinga913 and @Bandy514 - Looks like we're all scheduled for beta the same week! Mine is Oct. 8. FX for us all!!

AFM, I'm 5dp5dt. We found out last Friday that we had three really great quality blasts to freeze, which was such a huge relief. Now I'm just talking myself out of poas every morning. I think I've convinced myself to wait until at least 7dp5dt.

QOTD: I love the weather and football!

siempre595 · September 2014

***warning***

BFP! My first ever! I just tested. Haven't even told my husband yet (he's at work). I go for beta tomorrow morning. I'm 8dp5dt and held out til today. I was pretty sure because I bloated up like a super size balloon staring Friday night and have been cramping a lot without bleeding for several days, I've never had that amount of symptoms before. Clearly something was going on. I'm pretty uncomfortable and have a sore throat going on but who cares!

bears1011 · September 2014

@giants721 GL with your transfer tomorrow. @tiffany0614 and @bazinga913‌ great for 3 frosties! @starlightgator‌ have you poas again?? I was looking for an update, maybe I missed it!

edit: congrats @siempre595!!

AFM:

****************** bfp warning *****************************************

I caved and poas yesterday afternoon at 8dp3dt and saw a very faint line. I poas this morning and the line is darker! It's my first bfp ever in 4 years! I'm trying not to get my hopes up because it's still early and after all the years of trying my mindset is that it will never happen for me. I have a hard time believing it could...so I'm cautiously excited and taking this as a good sign but am nervous and praying this is the real thing. My beta isn't until this Friday. If I get a positive beta on Friday then I'll allow myself to get a little excited but even then I feel like I'll just be a ball of nerves! So I'm going to take this week day by day and try not to let myself think about it.

jen102279 · September 2014

YAY @Giants721 what great numbers!!! Sending you happy and stocky vibes!!! GL tomorrow!

@siempre595 CONGRATS!!! Enjoy all of it! The cramping, MS...seriously not the best parts of being pregnant, but knowing you are etc, savor it!!! Very happy for you!!

AFM: I updated yesterday that of the 5R, all 5 fert and were still growing yesterday (d3). 2-A's, 2-B's and a C. Now we just need to get to biopsy day!!! Hoping for at least 3 to make it that far, then they are off for PGD and freezing. Then we wait. Again. lol.

QOTD: We got married in the fall because we both absolutely LOVE the colors. We're in WI and the falls here are gorgeous...almost makes winter bearable...almost. I love my boots and hot cocoa, football games and the smell of fall. Love it!! Oh and I love Halloween!

katers79 · September 2014

@siempre595‌ and @bears1011‌ congrats!! Congrats to our other BFPs and PUPO! Sincere ((hugs)) to those that need them.

AFM- ER 9/25, 14F, 6M, 6F. Longest weekend ever as I was hoping for a better fert report. BUT-- As of today (day #5)-- 5 of 6 look "great!" Per RE! \:D/

Those 5 are being biopsied, and those biopsies are off on a road trip for PGD while "kids" enter the deep freeze. Now, we wait...again! I can handle this though. I think. These last 5 days have been hell, so anything has to be better right? FET in oct/nov

QOTD- boots, definitely boots. And this wk, tights or leggings or whatever will help hold in my post ER belly!

PurpleDaisy923 · September 2014

**********************BFP Warning**********************************

I got my first ever BFP on a FRER and a wondfo yesterday at 5dp5dt! Today (6dp5dt) I tested with a clearblue digital and it was so amazing to finally see the word "pregnant"! I'm still in disbelief that this is really happening to me. My first beta is on Thursday, October 2nd and my second beta is scheduled for Monday, October 6th.

QOTD: I love the month of October and Halloween, it's my favorite time of the year. I get to watch a ton of scary movies, wear a costume, eat and give away candy...I mean, what's not to love?! Also everything caramel apple makes me happy. There is a place that has caramel apple milkshakes that are to die for!!

Justone13 · September 2014

Wow awesome news today already!! @Tiffany0614‌ awesome that you had 3 make it to freeze!! Congrats!!

@siempre595‌ Congrats!! Are you planking anything special to tell your OH?

@bears1011‌ congrats!!! Fx for great beta numbers!!

@jen102279‌ fx they make it to freeze!!

@BlueJoan‌ you are amazing to wait for beta or bust! Keeping fx for you!

@katers79‌ waiting is the hardest!! Sending best wishes for your little ones to make it to freeze!! Sounds like we will be cycling again together!!

bears1011 · September 2014

@buttmonkey34 congrats!! fx crossed for a good beta on thursday!

turquoisequeen · September 2014

@justone13 I bet you cannot wait to be off bcps!

@giants721 GL at ET tomorrow!

@emilee GL with starting the cycle!

@bandy514 @tiffany0614 awesome that you have frosties!

@jen102279 @katers79 great report!

@siempre595 @bears1011 @purpledaisy923 congrats on the BPFs!

@buttmonkey34 congrats on beta! Prayers for doubling!

@bluejoan hope you get a wonderful beta on Thursday! There are so many betas this week so GL to all those coming up!

@starlightgator hope you rock your beta tomorrow!

QOTD: My favorite season is summer but fall would have to be 2nd. I love college football, boots, scarves and leggings (especially fleece lined leggings... amazing!) but I don't love that winter comes after fall.

Kam10 · September 2014

Hi Ladies!

Sorry I didn't update last week. I completely checked out last weekend after our transfer on Friday! I am officially PUPO! We transferred 1 beautiful hatching blast and ended up with 4 frosties. Beta is scheduled for 10/6.

QOTD: Football and crisp sweatshirt weather!

Edit: Decided to not ask a question which will only make me obsess more.

Kam10 · September 2014

@Giants721 Good luck tomorrow!

@Bandy514 we are beta buddies! The 6th seems so far away.

@Tiffany0614 3 frosties is great!

@Siempre595, @Bears1011, @PurpleDaisy923 & @Buttmonkey34 Congrats! FX for great betas!

@BlueJoan You are much stronger than I am. I knew from the beginning there was no way I was going to be able to hold out until beta. GL on Thursday!

Mrs.Ess · September 2014

So much good news!! Congrats to the BFPs and good betas and of course those who are PUPO...

AFM- I'm PUPO!!! Transferred 2 beautiful hatching blasts yesterday. And we have 2 perfect frosties!!! I could not possibly be happier. For the first time in forever I truly feel like things will go our way. It all seems like it didn't even really happen. I plan to POAS probably starting Friday. Beta is scheduled for 10/7.

Praying the sweet pea luck rubs off on me too

. Good luck everyone!!

Giants721 · September 2014

Congrats to all those PUPO and BFPs!!

CRMhoney · September 2014

LOSS MENTIONED

Hi ladies.

Some bad news. After seeing a sac and fetal pole last wednesday, I miscarried yesterday at 6 weeks 2 days. I had NO warning and just got up to pee and passed a huge clot. It all went down hill from there. The worst part..DH is away for work. He is on his way home now. I really thought this was the one. I don't know what to think anymore. This is M/C #3. I am devastated and numb. Doc thinks it is just bad lack with abnormal embryos. I don't know if I can go through this again. I have used all my frosties, so we have to do another fresh round. I want answers! This is so unfair! I guess I will be moving on to another group at some point. Thank you for all your encouragement and FX during this miserable process. I am praying for all you and FX and toesX for success.

xx

MSU_Girl1202 · September 2014

Hi Sweet Peas!
I can't believe how many BFPs there are this month!!! WOW. Great news everyone and good luck on your betas!!!

***warning***
Well, I think I mentioned this in my last update, but I got my BFP! I'm 10dp5dt today and have my beta tomorrow, but at 7dp5dt, I just couldn't wait any longer and POAS. I'm extremely nervous about the beta tomorrow and Friday, but trying to stay cautiously optimistic.
On a lighter note, ever since I got my BFP, MH has been reading (and taking notes on!) pregnancy books. It's too funny how into it he is...

erbear84 · September 2014

*hugs* @CRMHoney

My ER is tomorrow so I'm kind of in the middle of sweet peas and acorns! My estrogen went down to 3800 after triggering with Lupron/half Ovidrel yesterday and if it stays below 5000 I *should* be able to transfer Monday!

QOTD: Fall is my favorite season! I love the colors and football and sweaters and boots and warm cider/tea/hot chocolate and caramel apples and carving pumpkins and Halloween! I met DH on Halloween 5 years ago this Halloween.

Justone13 · September 2014

@Buttmonkey34 I'm so happy for you!! FX for a doubling beta #!!!

@Mrs.Ess Congrats!! Your beta seems like its right around the corner!! I hope the time flies for you!

@CRMhoney I am so sorry. Words can't describe how terrible I feel about your loss. I hope that your Dh's travels are quick so he can get home to be the support that you need at this time. I just don't understand why these things happen to such wonderful women. I hope that your RE can come up with a plan for you and that you can get the answers you want. I'm sending you the biggest hug I can muster.

Giants721 · September 2014

I'm so sorry @CRMhoney‌! Sending you the biggest hugs.

turquoisequeen · September 2014

@CRMhoney‌ my heart aches for you right now

just remember how strong and brave you are. I am sending a huge hug your way

Mrs.Ess · September 2014

@CRMhoney‌ I am so sorry for your loss. ((Hugs))

Desertrose27 · September 2014

My update: ****warning*******

I have a confirmed BFP! Beta yesterday was 919, which seems really high. We will see how it doubles in the next few days, though.

***/end warning****

QOTD: I love the color change in the leaves.

ChristieH917 · September 2014

@CRMhoney there is nothing to say. I just want to reach out and give you a huge hug!

*hugs*

AuroraP725 · September 2014

@CRMhoney‌ I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart is breaking for you right now. Take care of yourself and I hope you can get some answers soon. Big ((hugs))

Congrats on all the BFPs @siempre595‌ @bears1011‌ @PurpleDaisy923‌ @Buttmonkey34‌ @MSU_Girl1202‌ @Desertrose27‌!

Day 14 of stims here. I refuse to believe I will continue stimming past tonight. For one, I'm out of meds and don't want to have to buy more. But I'm also anxious for my ER and hate getting it pushed back so much. Hoping tomorrow's appt will bring me good news.

QOTD: My favorite part of fall is the leaves changing and the cooler running weather.

turquoisequeen · September 2014

@AuroraP725‌ hope this is your last day of stims!
@Desertrose27‌ congrats on beta!

PurpleDaisy923 · September 2014

Desertrose27 · October 2014

Congrats to all the BFP's and good luck to all between ER/ET and PUPO.

AFM: I am just waiting for AF to show its face, then starting another cycle right away or start BCP if there are any cycts.

QOTD: I love that I can go out without freezing to death or sweating too much. I hate the leafs falling, makes alot of mess. LOL I had to clean the leaves up.

ErinNicole1279 · October 2014
