    @Hoping4Success I had some intense back pain one night that I believe was implantation. Other than little cramps and twinges that's about it.

    @MicronesianMamma - We were really happy with that number, hopefully it continues to rise.
  • @ARB425 CONGRATS!!!!!!

    In 3dp5dt and the time just feels to have slowed down to a halt. Up until transfer everything seemed to be going so quickly and I was so calm, but this is a killer! GL to those also still waiting.

  • @babymish i know i have 4 days until my beta and im trying not to do a hpt at home its killing me
  • I applaud you for that @Hoping4Success although seeing BFN's kill me, I am not patient enough at this point to wait for the BETA which equally scares me :S good luck for yours!

  • Hey @hopefulmom :) We transferred 2, it was a very last minute decision. In the morning we had 1 x 3AB and 1 x 3BC with another 6 still doing their thing. So we were thinking 1 to transfer.

    Then when we got there in the afternoon the 3AB had grown some more and was a little clearer and they regraded is 3BB, we also had a 3BC and a 3CB and a 4th embryo which wasn't grade 3 yet but looked really good quality so they said that one was their choice no 2. 

    They asked me how many I wanted to transfer so I asked if we only did 1 could be freeze the other 3, they said no because they will only freeze BB's and above and the younger one wasn't mature enough to be frozen. It didn't make sense to lose it and when I said that maybe transferring 2 was the answer they seemed to agree.

    We still had 4 growing and the next day we had a 4AA and a 3BB out of them to freeze so that was a bonus!

    Phew that was a long update!

    How did your transfer go? How are you finding this wait?

  • @babymish wow that's a great update love it!!! I was in a similar situation in waiting to see how mine would do, nice you had a few going strong!!! By day 2, I had 3 embabies graded 4A, 4AB, and 3BC. I was wondering if I should freeze one just in case BUT in the end I transferred all 3 lil babies! They figured those were my best chances!  So here I am praying I can have multiples, yes I'm being greedy ;). This 2ww is dragging as I keep  wishing for signs that I'm finally going to get my bfp!! I'm exhausted though so I am going to look forward to napping!!

  • Took a home test today and it was negative. HOWEVER, my beta is on Monday and THAT is what I'm going to go by. So far, no sign of AF so I am STILL HOPEFUL! I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving (and if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving I hope you had a wonderful day). I'm still in the game!

  • @Chartleib FX for you! 

    AFM, I only have one hpt in the house to keep me from testing early. But I have like 20 opks... I'm so tempted to use one of those, because I heard a second line can mean you're pregnant. Getting desperate here. Lol
  • Thanks @persnickity I'm praying for you!!!

    @hopefulmom how many days post transfer are you now?  Exciting for transferring all 3! You are right this wait is the worst. I am quickly going out of my mind. I'm 5dp5dt today, I tested and it was BFN but have read many success stories that say this is too early so holding onto whatever hope I can. I am crampy today, I have no clue what the means so just trying to ignore it.

  • @persnickity Congrats! That is awesome you got a positive. My beta isn't until Friday and I don't have any tests of any kind in the house. I'm waiting until my husband isn't around to buy them....lol. 
  • @blairbecky78 haha ur so funny i thought the same hunby is at work and today would have been that day but i just cant im too scared to lol 
  • @blairbecky78 Thanks!!! Yeah, my husband wouldn't let me have the hpt until this morning. But he didn't take the opks.  ;) FX for you!
  • @persnickity Congrats!!!! That's awesome!! So excited for u!! Did u do an IUI or FET! Getting positive opk is a great sign!! When does ur beta numbers come in?

    @babymish I think 5 days is still a wee bit early, hang in there. Last Friday was my transfer day so I believe today makes me 7dp. Cramping is always good but I'm worried it's the meds doing it to me

  • @Hopeful_mom Thanks! I had an IUI. Today is 14 days after the IUI. I'll get my beta results this afternoon. Starting to get nervous, I have a little bit of brown discharge when wiping. I need the beta reassurance.
  • @persnickity congrats! Brown is old blood- probably implantation bleeding if you are lucky

    @chartleib I hope your AF hasn't shown and it's spotting from implantation! Thinking of you!

    @persnickity Congrats! That's so  exciting! I love your statment that you are pregnant today. Thats a great reminder because every little cramp or twinge I started working myself up for the worst.

    @alexcost the Tww is the worst. Good luck! Hopefully this is your month! 
  • @AlexCost My transfer was on Monday also. I really want to test now but I was a slow riser last time. I didn't get a light positive until 10dp5dt. It takes so much will power though! Good luck.  
  • @ARB425 it's really hard not to over analyze everything with all we've been through treatment wise to get here, especially if you've had a loss. I have to say that phrase a lot, but it really helps.

    @Chartleib Hoping that AF still hasn't shown. FX for Monday.
