  • @Angelaag @Hopeful_mom @momma6angels11  congrats on all the good news ladies!! <3
  • QUESTION FOR ALL :: if you used crinone  and had an afternoon transfer did you do your am dose on transfer day?
    If you were prescribed a valium for transfer day.....anyone not take it?

  • @momma6angels11 no AM for me and my transfer was at 2. Waited until after I got home from transfer to use. 
  • @momma6angels11 I always wait until after my transfer to do Crinone because they clean off your cervix and take it out anyway.  I've also had cycles where I did not use the Valium and cycles where I did.  I'm not sure that it matters much either way.

  • @radmom27 thanks for your input. @ Angelaag same to you. they haven't told me if i should do it early am or wait til after transfer..my transfer isnt until 1:30 so i was just curious as to what everyone else did. About the valium my clinic said i couldn't sign myself out after transfer if i took the valium,  as my husband cant be there this time.. so i guess im asking if there was a difference in how relaxed you were between taking it and not..
  • @momma6angels11 I think Valium probably affects people differently but for me, it makes absolutely no difference and I don't feel like Ive even taken anything.  It doesn't particularly make me calmer or not tense up during the transfer either...

  • @momma6angels11 I took Valium but don't think it's that helpful.  I do Endometrin 3 times day,  so with afternoon transfer, I did morning dose early and then about 3 hours after because they will have to clean it out and it's a waste off a dose.  Good luck!

  • @Angelaag I am so glad everything is looking good! I moved to Palm Harbor

    @momma6angels11 yay! Your lining is nice and thick and ready for your little ones! 

    @Hopeful_mom that's wonderful news that your embryos are doing well! 
  • @JESSABER0414 thank you! @kmoore6886 thanks! Did you find a place for your next beta? How did your move go?
  • @momma6angels11I did find a fertility clinic in Clearwater and I'm going for my 3rd beta on Tuesday.  Hopefully my number is where it should be! The move went well, thank you for asking! 
  • @kmoore6886 ok!! Ill be checking back tuesday
  • @momma6angels11 my transfer was scheduled for 12:30 I believe. I woke up early to do an insert and then did one after my transfer which was pushed back to 2 pm! I was glad I did my am one! 
  • @krenee124 thank you im thinking im going to ask the RE tomorrow at lining check but i would think i should do it early am since its not til 1:30
  • @kmoore6886  congrats on a successful move you really are one strong mama going through all this and moving!! fingers crossed for anther great beta!!!

    @momma6angels11  getting close woohoo!

    AFM: Today technically would be day 5 for my embabies but because its sunday I really didn't think I would get a call and to my delight the head of the embabies dept. gave me a call.  In a crazy frustrating day I got a glimmer of hope!!  One is ready for testing and the others are still in it...shes hoping to get one or two more tomorrow.....praying with everything they will pull through!!  If you've been following my grading you will find it interesting that the first that made it to blast was a regular fert and originally was a 2AB on day 2 and just perked right up...so praying that is a normie fighter right there!!

  • @lynn2003 and @momurph im thinking about you and cant wait to see your results from ultrasound today!!
  • @momma6angels11 thank you for your thoughts but I had to push it back due to a work commitment that I completely forgot about. It's driving me crazy to have to wait two more days!!!!
  • @momma6angels11 thank you! I'm actually pretty terrified... *TW* I had a big bleed on Saturday morning (a gush, no cramps) that reminded me all too much of my SCH in FET #1, which didn't end well *End TW* I've been on bedrest since then and it's better, but like I said, I'm terrified. Prayers welcomed! 
  • @momurph I am sending prayers and positive vibes your way! 
  • *lurker from June FET*

    @momurph, keep you in my thoughts

    @Hopeful_mom, you are giving me hope for my own slow growers! FX that they all stay strong and keep growing!
  • @Hopeful_mom Good luck! Hoping they stay strong and pull through!

    @momurph Thinking of you and praying everything turns out ok!! 

    Ugh so my cousin's 2 yr old has fifths disease and I was around him a bit. Trying not totally freak (which I already did). Called RE- they said when I come in thurs, they'll check to see if I have immunity to it. Praying that I do!! Such scary stuff.

  • @momurph sending thoughts and prayers for you to have a great scan today. I am so sorry for the scare over the weekend! Hopefully, it will have resolved itself.

    @lynn2003 Ugh! I bet it was tough to push back, but at least it's still this week! Looking forward to hearing from you and @krenee124 later this week!

    @Hopeful_mom It's not over til it's over! Keep growing, little embryos! I have a good feeling about you having a few more to add! Fingers and toes are crossed!

    @momma6angels11 I would definitely consult your doc, since they all seem to have variations in their approach, but my protocol called for no suppository the morning of transfer. And I wasn't offered valium for mine, but I would have probably passed on it anyway. I didn't find the procedure to be difficult - mentally or physically. Good luck!

    Thank you all so much!
  • @kmoore6886 Symptomwise everything fluctuates for me (hour to hour and day to day), but I've had: nausea & food aversions, fatigue, and breast tenderness. Otherwise I feel pretty good! 
  • @kmoore6886 I have had few significant symptoms, besides being exhausted, which is constant. Everything else comes and goes. I will be 10w tomorrow. Have had three or four instances of being really queasy, but never sick. I have not had any real aversions, but my sense of smell is strong. I have been constipated and then once in a while, I have really loose BMs. Breast tenderness comes and goes.... it's such a crapshoot.

  • Thanks for replying ladies! I haven't had a lot of symptoms, I have felt nauseous a couple of times, breast tenderness occasionally and I was having heartburn but I haven't had it recently. I did catch a cold from my father-in-law over the weekend ☹ so hopefully it runs its course quickly. The office I went to today was nice, however someone from Quest picks up the blood samples and they run the tests. I hope I get my results today, the nurse said they are kinda slow! Hopefully my lack of symptoms isn't a bad sign, but it seems like it is normal not to have a lot of symptoms right now. 
  • @kmoore6886 Yes, I think it's perfectly normal not to have a lot of symptoms yet (most people are only finding out that they're actually pregnant right about now). I hope your blood results come back quick, I hope slow just means later today.. I feel like it has to be same day because they need to be able to alter protocol same day..
