@Cinnamonn I'm feeling fine! I felt some sharp cramping earlier, which was a good sign for me in the past, but it wasn't as obvious as before. I'm trying not to read too much into anything since obviously it's super early (I'm only 3 days past transfer). I am going to try my best not to test early this time around, but we'll see if I crack or not
@sarcasticowl Good Luck with your transfer! Yay for transferring a girl. We plan to transfer our strongest girl later this month.
@Hopeful_mom Fingers crossed your change in meds does the trick and brings you estrogen up.
AFM I'm still just doing Lupron, estrogen pills and patches. Up my pill dosage today and tomorrow I go up to two patches. Lining check will be Monday the 18th and its crazy to think that if that goes well we will be transferring only a week later.
@JaeJayStark today is the day we are transferring one boy. Hope he is a super sticky little guy. I hope your beta is great today! @Magallyta at first I thought you were purposely sending omg...lol. my messages have done that in the past. @Crystal321 wow! I can't believe you can give yourself injections, that's amazing! I mean I do yoga and still don't think I can twist like that. Lol @cinnamonn yay on the beta. I'm not really sure what they should be, is that number high enough to be both? Regardless, you are pregnant and it worked! Just curious to see if it's two? Do you think it might be? Fx!! @Hopeful_mom when is your next check? Good luck the extra meds are working! You will be transferring before you know it and I can't wait to hear your journey! @sarcasticowl can't wait to hear how it went! Good luck
I'm lurking Still 8 days away from my transfer, so not much to post. The check up in on Sept 15th to check the lining and see if I can start progesterone. For now it's Estrace pills three times/day. I'm getting a bit anxious about the whole process and the possibility of failure. My DH is the picture of pure optimism (and so far he's been right about pretty much everything). We're moving to a big new house at the end of the month - it'll keep me distracted during the pupo wait, but it also puts more pressure on me to fill the new home with babies.
It sounds like quite a few people have either transfer or their first BETA today - can't wait for results!

***TW**** My RE is in labor go figure, we knew it was bound to happen so regardless of my delays she wouldn't have been able to do my transfer on friday anyway booooooo! Her water broke this morning and I'm laughing that I get a call at 8am from the nurses to let me know HAAAAAAA!!! AND this one nurse has no TACT at all. She basically says the DR forwarded the email I sent to her and am i now cancelling my FET. um why?? Because I said I don't want a new DR doing my transfer? Not sure why she doesn't realize I've been with this clinic so long I have had the other 2 REs at this point...they have brought on a new dr that I just dont want. Does that sounds horrible sure, she could be the best, I just don't feel like dealing with it. Is that the right decision who knows. Back to the clinic I go tomorrow...
@cinnamonn - i think u missed my post last night as we posted at the same time. @cinnamonn WHOAH!!! Way to kick off September girl!! You go girl!! Told you so And chica I gotta tell ya thats a pretty NICE beta I must say hmmmmmm how many pnuts do we have!! Can't wait for your next beta! One hurdle down now onto the next...

So transfer went well. Not at all painful. Having cramps now which I'm a little concerned with. Was really thinking the Valium was supposed to stop that cause it's not ideal for implantation. Hmmm... now we wait. RE said our little guy unthawed just the way he should have and looked the same coming out. I got baby's first picture too! @JaeJayStark awesome number if you only needed a 50! @cinnamonn I guess that answered my question about beta numbers. Looks like they both stuck, right!? @sarcasticowl how did it go? Can't wait to hear about your baby girl!❤️
@JaeJayStark yassss!!! Congratulations! So happy for you. @amynico so glad to hear transfer went smoothly and your little embryo thawed so nicely. What a huge relief! Try not to worry about minor cramping. I think that's ok. Easier said than done I know! @Hopeful_mom oh come on! Girl you need a break. After all the retreivals you've been through to get here you would think it could just go smoothly. I hope they accomodate your request for a more experienced doctor given your history there. You go back tomorrow for estrogen check right? Good luck and keep us posted. I'm having a reaction to the PIO. Had one last time too (after using for two cycles with no problem) so I was switched to progesterone in olive oil vs sesame oil. Well, the same damn thing is happening but a little worse this time. Welts at injection site and soreness in the muscle that is unbelievable. I'm supposed to be using benedryl cream which hasn't done much. Hard to sit or even wear jeans. I'm scerd for my injection tonight! I don't know where it's going to go. Anyway, hopefully all for a good cause. Would be worth it ten times over for a babe.
@Hopeful_mom I didn't understand.. are you canceling your own FET or did the nurse? Is it still an option not too? I'm so sorry.
congrats on being PUPO soooo exciting!!! Hoping your lil man is getting all comfy cozy in there!!!
sorry for the confusion...due to an email I wrote to my RE the nurse misread what I wrote and thought if my RE is not available that I would no longer to the transfer. So tomorrow we'll see how my levels are and take it from there. So far my lining was an 8 lets hope everything looks good. Should I be concerned if it takes my body a week later then others to get on point?? I have no idea and no one on the boards seems to really have an answer for me. Everyone keeps saying it only matter once you start the progesterone....so we shall see.

@Hopeful_mom thanks for clarifying, I was confused. So you go in for a check tomorrow and hopefully you can make your request and they will allow it. I will be praying that things go smoothly for you here on out. Seems like you are truly being tested but from what I've read in your post, you are one strong woman and can do this. So what, your body needed extra time. Everyone is so different and with the amount of drugs we have recently pumped into our systems, it's amazing our bodies aren't more confused than what they are. Best wishes tomorrow.
Hopeful_mom What an ordeal! UGh! These not so little bumps in the road can certainly throw you for a loop. I am sorry the nurse was confused. Try not to worry about your body taking longer to get ready. That's why we have treatment plans! We all have something out of whack. You're in good company!
Cinnamonn It looks like you took your first beta a couple days later than I took mine (mine was on 9dp5dt, and I think yours was 11dp5dt). I hope mine is as good as yours in a couple days! I go back Thursday and you are Friday, right?

@JaeJayStark I definitely don't want to jinx anything but I'm feeling quite optimistic! It's gotta work and it's gonna work because god gave us one normal boy and that's what we were hoping for going into this! My doctor has me on bed rest for 72 hours. Did you and @cinnamonn have bed rest?
amynico I am so happy you are optimistic! You won't jinx it! Optimistic is so healthy! I didn't have bed rest or Valium! My RE wants you to take it easy but also keep the blood flowing. Bed rest has to be super tough. I hope you have a show to binge. Any animals to snuggle with?

Hey everyone!! How are my transfer ladies feeling?
@JaeJayStark woohooo nice Beta! see, I almost have 500 and the cheapie didn't show it! And yes, looking at the numbers I think they both did But on the other hand you are right, my beta was later, on 11dp5dt. We'll see, maybe they will be able to let me know on Friday. I know, usually your next Beta is 2 days later, I was surprised they scheduled me 4 days later! for blood AND ultrasound.
@Crystal321 For sure don't test early, wait a little, so you don't stress over false result. And remember: NO CHEAPIES lol. So its not your first FET?
@HottLemonade2886 yet for the strong Girl! September 25 is coming up!
@amynico Stick boy, stick! Im happy it went well, don't be concerned about cramping, I was cramping during the procedure (with Vallium) and I still have cramps. My RE advised moderate bed rest for 48 hours. I was in bed two days with occasional walks around the house - blood still needs to circulate.
@FuzzyDust If you are just 8 days away from you transfer you are not lurking, you're engaging)) You know, Ive noticed that DH's are always optimistic and we are the ones stressing out. So unfair. Anyway, Its a lucky board, I feel like all of us are going to be getting BFPs
@Hopeful_mom That nurse has to definitely learn some manners. Like bitch, you don't just cancel FET like that!! Duh. So your lining is 8? thats great! thats a good number. Sorry, I did miss your post) so I want to think they both stuck, because its a pretty high number We have 3boys and 1girl. As much as I have wanted a girl I didn't want to risk her, so I kept her for later.
----------------------------------------------
AFM: this morning I woke up feeling very sick, my nose is stuffed, my throat is hurting, the worst is that I now have two cold sores. I didn't go to work and spent the whole day in bed. I don't want to take any meds so all Im having is herbal tea with lemon and Honey. Im worried about all of this affecting the embryos but my RE says its pretty common to get a little under the weather. Once you get pregnant your immune system goes down, so the body does not reject the embryo(s). So girls, please be careful - take it easy, let your body adjust, don't stay in the sun or cold too long and most important - don't forget to take your vitamins.

Lets keep the BFP's coming ladies woohoo!!!! I've been working on this post for hours now...thats what I get for bumping while working
Mewkie ouch you're terrifying me and I"m not even at PIO yet!! You are freaking me out! My body has been so strange as always. I just have bruseing from my blood work. I can't have any more drama coming my way please. I've done crinone but not PIO so i am a bit nervous!!!
amynico bed rest for 72hrs? I get it if thats your dr orders just make sure to still move around and have your blood flowing...like the others have said
JaeJayStark how r u feeling? so excited about ur beta can't wait for the next one!!! You are preggers yay!!!
Cinnamonn It's tough when you have one girl you don't know what to do for sure!! I so get it!!! Its crazy cause in the beginning all i was making were girls. But yet my first normie was a boy (TW after the MC) go figure... I hope your princes are getting all cozy for the long haul!! 4 days is a while oh my! WIl they do an US too? or make you wait first for another beta??
AFM: Of course took my estrace late but I did it at work vaginally...not something I really love doing I must say. At least its easier to do without the crinone as you do both together for a fresh transfer. Lets hope i'm getting good news tomorrow...I feel like it needs to be a go wed-fri to have an RE I know do the tranfer...come on E2 and lining...need that to stay at bay too.

This is the lucky board and month! BFP 7dp5dt on First Response test this morning. Beta is Friday --which seems crazy far away right now. Congrats to everyone and praying we get to stick out this ride together for the long haul. Sticky sticky vibes for everyone!!!
1st cycle of IVF started July 2017. ER- 21R, 14M, 12F, 7 blasts. 5 PGS normal frozen.
@Cinnamonn nope, this is just my second. TW - the first one ended in a CP. I have 2 frosties left before we do an IVF with PGS... and I really don't want to do that, so I am really praying this works
@amynico Everything went great! Went home and hung out afterwards, took a nap and didn't really do much but I'm back at work today. Did your doc say why he wanted you on 72 hour bed rest? Our clinic says there's no need for it, but not to "jump up and down or go jogging" the first few days. No risk of that with my lazy ass I have blood work for E2, progesterone and TSH on Monday and my beta is on Thursday. Fingers crossed but I'm being super guarded about getting my hopes up. I know our odds are only like 25% (maybe a little more because our embryo was PGS tested) and that's with a 'normal' uterus, so I'm hoping the embryo found a nice fluffy spot that will continue to get a rich supply of blood but I won't be devastated if it doesn't work. Sad, but not broken. Takes a lot to break us girls!
@Hopeful_mom shoot I didn't mean scare you! I have taken PIO in cycles past without an issue. I'm definitely having a reaction this time. Yours should be fine! How did you appt go today? @Medicallyblonde ahhh!! Congratulations on your BFP!!
@Mewkie after using PIO for few months earlier this year with no issues, back in August used it for about 3 weeks and had terrible bruises and mosquito like bites.
What helped me was: did the injection in the morning and followed by a heat pad like always.
But then, at night, set with ice packs on both sides to get rid of the swelling and bruises. And that seemed to help a little.
Try it, maybe it will help you too.

@prudence9-2 thank you for the tips! Interesting how the reaction popped up when we previously didn't have problems. I was afraid to get hooked on heat because after my last transfer I was told no heating pad. I'm going to double check that with my doctor though. I need to do something about this. Thanks again.
@sarcasticowl not sure why we are on a 72 hour bed rest but it's our whole clinic. I have learned to do as I'm told and not ask too many questions. It ends up stressing me out. Also, I wonder why you were given a 25% success rate. My doctor told me 60% maybe a little more. I'm wondering what our differences are. And you get your beta on day 9? Mine is on day 10. They measured my lining the day of transfer and it had gone down from where it was before progesterone. I was 9.98 and day of transfer only a 8.5 if I'm remembering correctly. I did have a Valium. I was a little upset but still think 8.5 is ok. Let's hope so. How are you feeling physically? I've been having cramps since the transfer. I hope that doesn't hurt my chances.
Hi everyone! Update I ended up getting transfer today instead of tomorrow due to doc schedule. It went well no pain as everyone mentioned. Just resting now & feeling good so far. For those you transferred, any foods or drinks you're avoiding like coffee, certain teas? Just feeling lost what to eat/drink & what not to?
Hopeful_mom I'm feeling great. I can only eat small meals otherwise I feel super bloated. Had a bloody nose today. Both of those symptoms happened last time.
Medicallyblonde OMG! So far all BFPs! I am so happy for you! Can't wait for Beta!
sarcasticowl BAHAHAA! "Our clinic says there's no need for it, but not to "jump up and down or go jogging" the first few days. No risk of that with my lazy ass "

@JaeJayStark Good Luck today! Fingers crossed for a nice strong beta!
@Cinnamonn Congrats!
@sarcasticowl Good Luck with your transfer! Yay for transferring a girl. We plan to transfer our strongest girl later this month.
@Hopeful_mom Fingers crossed your change in meds does the trick and brings you estrogen up.
AFM I'm still just doing Lupron, estrogen pills and patches. Up my pill dosage today and tomorrow I go up to two patches. Lining check will be Monday the 18th and its crazy to think that if that goes well we will be transferring only a week later.

@Magallyta at first I thought you were purposely sending omg...lol. my messages have done that in the past.
@Crystal321 wow! I can't believe you can give yourself injections, that's amazing! I mean I do yoga and still don't think I can twist like that. Lol
@cinnamonn yay on the beta. I'm not really sure what they should be, is that number high enough to be both? Regardless, you are pregnant and it worked! Just curious to see if it's two? Do you think it might be? Fx!!
@Hopeful_mom when is your next check? Good luck the extra meds are working! You will be transferring before you know it and I can't wait to hear your journey!
@sarcasticowl can't wait to hear how it went! Good luck
For now it's Estrace pills three times/day.
I'm getting a bit anxious about the whole process and the possibility of failure. My DH is the picture of pure optimism (and so far he's been right about pretty much everything). We're moving to a big new house at the end of the month - it'll keep me distracted during the pupo wait, but it also puts more pressure on me to fill the new home with babies.
@cinnamonn - YAY!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy for you!
It sounds like quite a few people have either transfer or their first BETA today - can't wait for results!

***TW**** My RE is in labor go figure, we knew it was bound to happen so regardless of my delays she wouldn't have been able to do my transfer on friday anyway booooooo! Her water broke this morning and I'm laughing that I get a call at 8am from the nurses to let me know HAAAAAAA!!! AND this one nurse has no TACT at all. She basically says the DR forwarded the email I sent to her and am i now cancelling my FET. um why?? Because I said I don't want a new DR doing my transfer? Not sure why she doesn't realize I've been with this clinic so long I have had the other 2 REs at this point...they have brought on a new dr that I just dont want. Does that sounds horrible sure, she could be the best, I just don't feel like dealing with it. Is that the right decision who knows.
Back to the clinic I go tomorrow...
@cinnamonn - i think u missed my post last night as we posted at the same time.

@JaeJayStark awesome number if you only needed a 50!
@cinnamonn I guess that answered my question about beta numbers. Looks like they both stuck, right!?
@sarcasticowl how did it go? Can't wait to hear about your baby girl!❤️
@amynico so glad to hear transfer went smoothly and your little embryo
thawed so nicely. What a huge relief! Try not to worry about minor cramping. I think that's ok. Easier said than done I know!
@Hopeful_mom oh come on! Girl you need a break. After all the retreivals you've been through to get here you would think it could just go smoothly. I hope they accomodate your request for a more experienced doctor given your history there. You go back tomorrow for estrogen check right? Good luck and keep us posted.
I'm having a reaction to the PIO. Had one last time too (after using for two cycles with no problem) so I was switched to progesterone in olive oil vs sesame oil. Well, the same damn thing is happening but a little worse this time. Welts at injection site and soreness in the muscle that is unbelievable. I'm supposed to be using benedryl cream which hasn't done much. Hard to sit or even wear jeans. I'm scerd for my injection tonight! I don't know where it's going to go. Anyway, hopefully all for a good cause. Would be worth it ten times over for a babe.
sorry for the confusion...due to an email I wrote to my RE the nurse misread what I wrote and thought if my RE is not available that I would no longer to the transfer. So tomorrow we'll see how my levels are and take it from there. So far my lining was an 8 lets hope everything looks good. Should I be concerned if it takes my body a week later then others to get on point?? I have no idea and no one on the boards seems to really have an answer for me. Everyone keeps saying it only matter once you start the progesterone....so we shall see.

Cinnamonn It looks like you took your first beta a couple days later than I took mine (mine was on 9dp5dt, and I think yours was 11dp5dt). I hope mine is as good as yours in a couple days! I go back Thursday and you are Friday, right?

@JaeJayStark woohooo nice Beta! see, I almost have 500 and the cheapie didn't show it! And yes, looking at the numbers I think they both did
But on the other hand you are right, my beta was later, on 11dp5dt. We'll see, maybe they will be able to let me know on Friday.
I know, usually your next Beta is 2 days later, I was surprised they scheduled me 4 days later! for blood AND ultrasound.
@Crystal321 For sure don't test early, wait a little, so you don't stress over false result. And remember: NO CHEAPIES lol. So its not your first FET?
@HottLemonade2886 yet for the strong Girl! September 25 is coming up!
@amynico Stick boy, stick! Im happy it went well, don't be concerned about cramping, I was cramping during the procedure (with Vallium) and I still have cramps. My RE advised moderate bed rest for 48 hours. I was in bed two days with occasional walks around the house - blood still needs to circulate.
@FuzzyDust If you are just 8 days away from you transfer you are not lurking, you're engaging)) You know, Ive noticed that DH's are always optimistic and we are the ones stressing out. So unfair. Anyway, Its a lucky board, I feel like all of us are going to be getting BFPs
@Hopeful_mom That nurse has to definitely learn some manners. Like bitch, you don't just cancel FET like that!! Duh.
So your lining is 8? thats great! thats a good number.
Sorry, I did miss your post) so I want to think they both stuck, because its a pretty high number
We have 3boys and 1girl. As much as I have wanted a girl I didn't want to risk her, so I kept her for later.
----------------------------------------------
AFM: this morning I woke up feeling very sick, my nose is stuffed, my throat is hurting, the worst is that I now have two cold sores. I didn't go to work and spent the whole day in bed. I don't want to take any meds so all Im having is herbal tea with lemon and Honey. Im worried about all of this affecting the embryos but my RE says its pretty common to get a little under the weather.
Once you get pregnant your immune system goes down, so the body does not reject the embryo(s).
So girls, please be careful - take it easy, let your body adjust, don't stay in the sun or cold too long and most important - don't forget to take your vitamins.

Mewkie ouch you're terrifying me and I"m not even at PIO yet!! You are freaking me out! My body has been so strange as always. I just have bruseing from my blood work. I can't have any more drama coming my way please. I've done crinone but not PIO so i am a bit nervous!!!
amynico bed rest for 72hrs? I get it if thats your dr orders just make sure to still move around and have your blood flowing...like the others have said
JaeJayStark how r u feeling? so excited about ur beta can't wait for the next one!!! You are preggers yay!!!
Cinnamonn It's tough when you have one girl you don't know what to do for sure!! I so get it!!! Its crazy cause in the beginning all i was making were girls. But yet my first normie was a boy (TW after the MC) go figure... I hope your princes are getting all cozy for the long haul!! 4 days is a while oh my! WIl they do an US too? or make you wait first for another beta??
AFM: Of course took my estrace late but I did it at work vaginally...not something I really love doing I must say. At least its easier to do without the crinone as you do both together for a fresh transfer. Lets hope i'm getting good news tomorrow...I feel like it needs to be a go wed-fri to have an RE I know do the tranfer...come on E2

@Cinnamonn nope, this is just my second. TW - the first one ended in a CP. I have 2 frosties left before we do an IVF with PGS... and I really don't want to do that, so I am really praying this works
@hopefulmom How did today go?
@Medicallyblonde ahhh!! Congratulations on your BFP!!
@Mewkie after using PIO for few months earlier this year with no issues, back in August used it for about 3 weeks and had terrible bruises and mosquito like bites.
What helped me was: did the injection in the morning and followed by a heat pad like always.
But then, at night, set with ice packs on both sides to get rid of the swelling and bruises. And that seemed to help a little.
Try it, maybe it will help you too.
