December FET Buddies

16781012

Re: December FET Buddies

  • Hi ladies.  I just had my first transfer last Thursday and we did a 5 day transfer.  Today is Day 3 AFTER transfer and I feel exactly the same as before transfer.  I'm trying to stay offline so I don't google everything but it's hard.  No cramping or spotting or bloating etc so I'm trying not to freak out about it :/
    TTC for Baby #1 for 3 years. After 2 failed IUI's & IVFs, God blessed us with our miracle :).  FET 12/17/15 (transferred 2 embryos at 5days). First Beta 12/29/15 = 354. Second Beta 12/31/15 = 694. Third Beta 1/7/16 = 6,695.  Finally heard his heartbeat (126)  on 1/14/16 @ our 1st US.  2nd US on 1/21/16, HR was 159.  The most beautiful sound ever :)

    @plumeria05 I had my FET only two days before yours. I also feel exactly the same, but it is also way too early for any real symptoms, I say real because I get plenty of symptoms from the progesterone and estrogen.

    So I just try to wait until it is time to test, I have read that a few people here who tested at 5dp5dt or 6dp5dt and gotten a positive, so now I almost want to test early... Maybe I should try staying away from internet too.

  • At my beta.... I'm dreading this day! :disappointed:
    I forgot to put my progesterone insert in on Saturday after I tested. I panicked and call my nurse, she said don't worry just put it in now (at 6:00 pm). Well, yesterday morning I woke up to cramps, and put my insert in, only to find blood. Ugh! I'm pretty sure I was starting my period bc of the delay of progesterone. So it only confirms that I'm not preggo. But I will get that lovely call later. Praying for the sulfide of my life!!!!!!

    Happy beta days to everyone else!!! @halips @shaylatrice keep me posted!! I'm routing for you girls!!

    @amos1417 congratulations!!!! That's super early and super exciting!! How many did you put in??

    @Colleen0516 I'm sorry hun. I really am. I was so hoping this time around was the one for you.

    @amos1417 congrats to u and lots of sticky dust!

    Today is beta day for a few of us. Good luck ladies!!

    I've been really preoccupied with DH and all his testing and now we aren't leaving the hospital until Wednesday. I held off on POAS...which I'm happy I did. With all that is going on I didn't need the added stress of watching for a result on a test. Probably would've been too much. Now today....ugh. I'm nervous...but, the day is here and all will be revealed soon enough. I just gave them my blood and they said I should hear from them early afternoon.

  • I am so excited to hear good news today @halips @ShayLatrice @Doingitforme @Colleen0516! Prayers have been said!

    @plumeria05 It's still early! Don't worry, true pregnancy symptoms don't start until about 6 weeks.  

    Thanks so much ladies - I sincerely pray for many more BFPs in the group!!

  • @amos1417  Squeeee! So exciting! Fx for you!

    @Colleen0516 I'm so sorry. I hope you are able to find some comfort and enjoy the holidays before jumping in again.

    @ShayLatrice and @Doingitforme  Fx for those BFP's today. I need to see some more good news on here! :)

    I haven't started bleeding yet. But all "symptoms" I had are gone and I feel bloated like I do right before my period. After my BFN hpt, I couldn't bring myself to test again yesterday. But I don't feel positive anymore, I'm pretty sure the call this afternoon will be a BFN.

    DH and I are going to be in Ohio for Christmas this year for the first time in 8 years (where I grew up). It's going to be the best place for me to be regardless of the news, so that's keeping me going.

  • @ShayLatrice  I had some minor cramping days 6-9, sore swollen breasts and lightheadedness. Plus I just felt like it worked, ya  know? But nothing since Saturday morning. I know all 3 could also have been Progesterone related too, so I was silly to let myself get so hopeful, rather than being cautiously optimistic.

  • I totally understand... my mentor kept asking me about symptoms and I told her I wasn't symptom checking because they could very well be from the progesterone and estrogen. So stop asking me that... none of this actually means I'm pregnant until a test confirms that I'm pregnant. People really  just don't get it...

  • Thoughts and prayers to the ladies testing today.  Big Hugs. 
    TTC for Baby #1 for 3 years. After 2 failed IUI's & IVFs, God blessed us with our miracle :).  FET 12/17/15 (transferred 2 embryos at 5days). First Beta 12/29/15 = 354. Second Beta 12/31/15 = 694. Third Beta 1/7/16 = 6,695.  Finally heard his heartbeat (126)  on 1/14/16 @ our 1st US.  2nd US on 1/21/16, HR was 159.  The most beautiful sound ever :) 
  • Well, I got the call and my beta was negative. I am officially out for this round. I'm at work, so trying to hold it together. For as much as I knew it, I can't seem to shake the immense sadness right now. I scheduled a tentative baseline appt for next week and meet with my RE next week. My nurse wants to get me going again right away, so looks like IVF stimming will start in mid Jan. I'm hopeful this next round will be the one.

    The sort of positive news is that my progesterone and estrogen were near perfect levels to maintain a pregnancy, so if I could only get there, the nurse thinks it will stick. 

    I'm holding onto hope for the rest of you! I need to hear your good news! Hugs and Fx!!

  • @halips I am so very sorry. I hope that the January cycle is the one for you. It's got to be!

    @ShayLatrice how amazing!! Congratulations! What a great beta!! Happy and healthy 9 months!!
  • @twomommiestobe thanks you so much! I only transferred 1. I'm still in shock. 

    I thought it was just 1. I can never tell if a number is high or low, it just seemed high compared to some I see, so I didn't know if you ended up with multiples haha

  • So I actually caved in today... I really wanted to test so my held my pee for about four hours and tested... I got a positive :) There is most definitely a second line, and pretty dark too, considering I am only 6dp5dt.

    I am really happy it worked, now I just really really hope it stays sticky. I thought that with the miscarriage last time I would not be as excited but I actually am. But I still want to stay cautious.

  • @ShayLatrice  Thank you. I felt so silly testing, I was convinced it was way too early, but I was looking at the test ant the line started showing up and getting darker I had to rub my eyes to make sure it was not a hallucination. 

    I have imagined many lines before, trying hard to squint. Taking the test out of the garbage hours later... I was quite silly.

My SIL is picking up my favorite wine and we plan to overindulge and laugh a lot on Christmas. Best therapy! Hugs to you!

  • Ugh. So sorry @Colleen0516 and @halips . I know how difficult that news is and am genuinely sorry to hear it. Hugs ladies.
  • I am so sorry for the negative betas ladies. I wish it wasn't so, I wish there was something I could do. I know what it's like to get that negative call month after month and I wouldn't wish it on an enemy. I hope that you are easy on yourself, treat yourself extra good and try to enjoy the holiday. Hugs to all!
  • All of you ladies that still have betas coming up this week and next, keep us updated! Fx for you all!

    I want to thank all of you for being so wonderful and supportive to me and each other. You're a great group of people!! I hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year! Anyone doing anything fun? DH and I leave Thursday for 4 days in Ohio with my family, really looking forward seeing them all!

  • @halips  We are also going to see my family, we will spend a few days with my sister and my dad and then we go up to my mother's house to spend time with her and my brother :) I am less worried about the family party now, but I think I will stay upstairs and say I am feeling not well. I am looking forward to seeing my cute nephew tho.

  • @halips BIG hugs to you and yes you deserve some wine and more wine.  Thanks for the wishes.  Like everyone on here, I'm trying not to expect too much.  My BETA is next week so at this point, I really just want to get it over with.  Which part of Ohio are you heading to? What a coincidence.  My DH were supposed to leave for Ohio today (he's from Columbus) but we canceled it last week (he had a blood clot so the dr said no).  My MIL said it's supposed to rain all week there so more wine to enjoy :)
    TTC for Baby #1 for 3 years. After 2 failed IUI's & IVFs, God blessed us with our miracle :).  FET 12/17/15 (transferred 2 embryos at 5days). First Beta 12/29/15 = 354.
