  • Congrats @APM_SLP and @mjacks16 on being PUPO!  Sticky vibes sent your way!
  • @wifeinraleigh My clinic checks a few days before the transfer (on the day of starting PIO) just to confirm that you didn’t somehow ovulate. They don’t do any other blood work except for betas. Also, I think it’s great to have a separate group for FET’ers. Last cycle it was really difficult to keep up with everyone in the IVF group. I think this makes it easier to support each other. Those of us doing FET have moved on from our ER’s and stims. 
    @mtpbadger I’m so excited for you! And, I think it was a good decision to take the time off of work- give your emmie some downtime to settle in. :)
    @bells52000 I am so happy for you that you’ll be able to start up again soon.
    HEY @FatPony !! That looks really nice to me!!!!! Totally smiling crazy at my computer screen right now. 
    @APM_SLP and @mjacks16 Yay for PUPO!!


    I cannot wait to be PUPO. My DH will finally be home soon and so hopefully he will be able to make it to the appointment. (DH is military and gone frequently). Hugs to everyone!

  • @FatPony SO MUCH YESSSS!!!!  So excited for you!!!  And for the record, I'm not reporting your pee stick.

    @mjacks and @APM_SLP Congrats on being PUPO!  Sending you both the stickiest vibes EVER.  @APM_SLP when is your beta??

    @Elyse1384 I'm so glad to hear you didn't have to wait too much longer for that damn approval!  And I'm also glad you're still a September FET :smiley:  It will be here before you know it!!

    @C-k GL with your transfer tomorrow!!  Looking forward to your update on how everything goes!

    Like @Tusername I can't wait to be PUPO with the rest of you!  I feel like each day I get more and more excited.  The past few nights I've been waking up at 4am and haven't been able to get back to sleep until 6ish.  Not sure what's going on with me, but I've decided that 4am is a good time to hop on this thread when I can't sleep!

  • So I'm actually wondering now if the medrol is making it difficult for me to sleep. The last time I took a steroid (prednisone) I had the same problem. Anyone else have difficulty sleeping while taking medrol during FET prep?

  • @wifeinraleigh28 - I had a bit of trouble sleeping while on the medrol, but I attributed it to the nasty cold I had. Maybe your body is just super stoked about the transfer lol

    Nothing going on today as per the tracker. Maybe we should do a fur baby day?
  • @fatpony missy is adorable! You all are going to make me jealous with all your fur baby pics, DH and I live in a condo and no pets allowed :( 

    I've also decided that I'm not going to start my TWW countdown till after all the transfers this week, since we will all be testing on the same day, lol! Maybe that will make it seem like mine is going by that much faster? I haven't even called to schedule my beta yet! I guess I should do that today. 
  • Hey everyone I'm so excited the week is almost over and the majority of us will be PUPO. I'm glad that transfers have gone well so far. 
    @FatPony That line looks great. FX for you. 
    @APM_SLP I'm jelly that you have a pic and that it's a boy. I don't get embryo pics and I would love to have a boy. 
    AFM- I should be getting my call today with a time for Friday. Dr J. called yesterday and he wants to wait until Fri and look at the embryo's before we make any decisions as far as transferring, freezing or disposing of the 2nd embryo. I've been having some sharp pains in my ovary areas this week especially when I get up from siting or I sneeze. idk what it is. I'm on the same protocol as I have always been. I have also been more achy in my hips and legs since starting the POI.

  • Ladies I love your fur babies (and...pony!). I wish I had a doggie soooo bad.  My first fur baby (my beloved golden retriever) was my first and last for sometime.  I work so far from home as does DH.  We really want a golden and Newfie for our household.  Need to wait until we move for that to happen.

  • @C-k . Good thoughts for you on your TWW. That does sound interesting to have such differing experiences...and while I have not been at this too too long, I can't imagine a transfer without an ultrasound.  They were crazy specific on the ultra with mine.  Glad it sounds like your new re knows what they are doing!

  • Thanks @bells52000 and @LSatturo126

    I even bled because he pinched my cervix, the whole thing was pretty awful. I hope this works because it will be hard to go back and do another one..

    I so agree! It's like someone ripping you from the inside out. Hope the throbbing goes away quickly.

  • @C-k - I hope this one works for you! I also find it very weird that your last one was done without an ultrasound. My clinic even measured my uterus to find the best placement for the embryo. Did you switch clinics or something? 
  • @C-k I can't even imagine the pain. I've had 4 transfers and they have always been with an ultrasound. 
    @LSatturo126 I can't wait to hear your numbers today
    @wifeinraleigh28 My Transfer is set tomorrow for 10:30 Eastern time. I have to be there by 9:30 which is 8:30 my time. It's confusing sometimes cause its an hour and a half drive plus I'm an hour behind. Apperently 10:30 is a late transfer time for them????? DH is pumped and I'm just like eh. I'm more curious if I will get to see picks of the embryo's this time since we will be deciding how many and which one we will be transferring just before we do it.
