@BusinessWife yay!!! That's amazing! Congrats! Let's pray for doubling. Thanks for sharing your story. I'd probably be a mess I'd my RE suddenly went out like that. But she will be back in time for my transfer, if and when it occurs.
@JamieH2000 can never be easy, huh?? I know that feeling constantly checking for blood. Just take it one milestone at a time like you are doing and all will be well. I've never been on Lupron , I don't think. I always just start estrogen on day 2 of my cycle. But im sure she will do something like that if that happens. At this point, I don't get excited, I just take it one appt at a time cuz I know at any minute, my cycle can get canceled. Hadn't happened before with a FET until last month...so maybe I'll make it w in a row or I'll get lucky. Who knows. I was hoping to piggyback off my pregnancy hormones from April, but the farther away I get from my pregnancy, the less likely it will help with this next transfer... thats my only concern.

@hopeful_mom- omg!! Great second beta!’ So hopeful for you come on Monday!!! Keep the good news coming!
@andreamm31- will be crossing my fingers dor you on Tuesday!!
thanks for the thoughts ladies! Yes- I have SCH, which is really a symptom of bleeding. I think the placenta attaching and hitting a vessel is mostly always what causes an SCH. So it just gives me anxiety the placenta will have issues later. They said I would get a growth ultrasound later to make sure the placenta is working good. But the placenta separating is my biggest fear since there is nothing to be done (like Chrissy tiegens situation). So that’s why I am terrified of new red blood since that would mean new issues. The brown spotting has started to ease finally after 3 weeks.. so hopefully it will end and stay away. I’m just afraid to do more than walk- no quick movements or running or anything

**TW Beta results and baby mentioned. Please keep praying for my lil one and I! 3rd Beta 548, they seem ok with it as it did double as it should, or triple as it was 162 on Friday and 548 today, Monday, they still want me to come back on wed for a 4th beta so I think they're concerned. I was truly hoping for higher progesterone went down from 29 to 21 yet they say it’s all good. Any thoughts??

@Hopeful_mom those betas look great. Maybe they are doing it to give you piece of mind?? Nothing looks off to me.
@Kp214@JamieH2000 thanks ladies. Ultrasound looked good. Only 1 follicle and it's tiny now. So weird!! Lining at 7.8. Recheck in a week and as long as things look OK and lining growing, then transfer on 13th. I added a pomegranate supplement for my lining on top of my vit e, l-arginine, and castor oil packs I'm doing. Hopefully this next one is nice and plump!

@Hopeful_mom I get why you worry and are being so cautious during this pregnancy. The IF experience tend to intensify a lot of feelings, which really sucks. But I’ll be praying really hard for you (and for the other ladies here who are PG) that you’ll have stress free, relaxed and happy days. When I started joining here at TB in 2017, your story was one of those that inspired and encouraged me to keep on going even though it is very hard, tysm. 💕
AFM. Just had my first beta two days ago and *TW*
HCG 12.3 😢
*end TW*
So, waiting for AF to come and we’d prep for another FET for my last frozen 3day 8cell embie.
thinking of you @Hopeful_mom ; thinking positive thoughts for a good fourth beta! So sorry @tinjp78 . I hope AF comes fast. @andreamm31 exciting! happy for you; the transfer will be here in no time. AFM, baseline appt on 7/9, after 2 months of lupron. If that u/s looks good will proceed with a transfer.
Looks like a busy summer ahead let's make some babies!!!
@andreamm31 Sounds like you're off to a great start, that's a really nice lining already poo poo let it continue! Today when the woman took blood she said OK see ya in 2 days, I'm like really. I was hoping we would be good, so at least I"m already prepared. Come on poppyseed come on!!
lrynwnab one more week to go , hoping its a great US and you can get started!
@tinjp78 sorry friend, its just so hard! Hope AF comes ASAP and you can try again. Did you do medicated or natural? It's such a hard road but we know we can have success even though its such a struggle.
***TW we are in business 1137 they were please and technically I am 5 weeks, waiting to make an appointment for an US.

@Hopeful_mom Amazing news, as I was catching up on the posts over the last week I was holding my breath as I was reading through yours. I am so happy for you. That is great beta. @JamieH2000 How are you doing and feeling? Sorry to hear about the scare but glad that the bleeding has stopped and the spotting is slowing down. Wishing you the best through this pregnancy. Kick your feet up when you can which I am sure is hard to do with a toddler running around @andreamm31 That lining is looking pretty good! @lrynwnab Awesome, wishing you the best for the transfer.
@hopeful_mom- love this update!! Things are right on track!
@lmajin99- thanks for the kind wishes. I’m doing ok. Doing my best to control my anxiety and try to enjoy this time but it’s a real struggle. Hopefully I’ll be able to after the anatomy scan. How are you doing my friend? Any next steps or plans? I hope you are able to enjoy the summer as much as you can, but I’m sure it’s been a tough one sending you soo much love friend.
@tinjp78- welcome back. I’m so sorry to hear about your chemical. I had a chemical last summer and it hit me Haeckel than I ever thought. Thinking of you!
@andreamm31- that’s a great lining to start! Sending you alll the good vibes for a great lining next week. It’s SO time for your rainbow baby!!

@Hopeful_mom woohooo those numbers sound great. Take a deep breath mama, you got this.
@JamieH2000 thanks sweetie. I appreciate it. I think its my time too hehe. Lining looked good! 8.9 and trilaminar. no other annoying things to derail me this time. I start my progesterone in an hour and we are scheduled to transfer next Tuesday at 1pm. Im really excited! I feel so positive.
Ive been reading this book called Signs by Laura Lynne Jackson and it talks about signs our loved ones send us as validation for letting us know we are on the right path, or just to tell us they are with us. A lot of you know I am a very spiritual person, so I have a pretty strong connection with my grandparents who have passed and when my grandpa first passed, he was sending me the craziest signs to lead me right to my husband and let us know that he was orchestrating it. it was pretty crazy and wild and was magical to be honest. But with all of my struggles the past few years, I feel like I've been less connected. So I read this book and it reminded me that I need to start asking for signs again, but different ones than I have in the past. So I asked my grandpa to send me 1 rainbow if this cycle is gonna produce 1 baby or 2 rainbows if its gonna be 2 babies. A few nights later I had a dream and I saw a double rainbow (apparently loved ones come through pretty strongly in dreams) I then woke up and Instagram was open on my phone and it was a picture of a rainbow. Then later that day I saw multiple pictures that just kept popping up of double rainbows. Now I freaking see double rainbows all the time in weird places, like in my hospital gift shop window. On 4th of July, the dog at the house we were at was playing with a Rainbow plush toy. Its so funny, but so reassuring and validating that this time is gonna work and all will be well. So here's to hoping both these embabies stick. Im ready to have my double rainbow babies!

@andreamm31 That is so neat about all the rainbows! Glad you have something giving you a reason to hope right now :)
@Kp214 Thrilled you’re already off to a great start praying it continues! Try to relax and enjoy

@Hopeful_mom I'm so glad to hear it! That is such a big hurdle. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
As for me, I had a baseline appt today after 2 months of Lupron Depot. They had it all scheduled 3 months ago when I would come in, as opposed to waiting for day one of AF. Well, turns out I have a 16mm follicle and estrogen of 80. My doc is out today, but they want me to come back in on Monday and see if they can turn this into a natural cycle. I wasn't able to ask any questions of the backup doc, but my first question would be, i have an ERA of 132 hours, so would a natural cycle affect this?
On the other hand, after my first successful transfer, I've had 4 failed transfers (two chemicals and two m/cs at 6 w) so part of me just wants to try and see if it works. It's my last embaby, so I need to think about it.
@Hopeful_mom Amazing news, so happy to read the post today. @BusinessWife Congrats on graduating, glad everything is going well and I am sure you are excited for your first appointmnet with the MDW. Will catch up on everyones posts soon as I have take some time away from computer.

@andreamm31 Hope your transfer went well this week! @hopeful_mom Hang in there, you will have the US soon! its almost hump day tomorrow @JamieH2000 How you doing and feeling? I am hoping that the spotting has stopped and that 2nd trimester is going smoothly. Thanks for checking in, no big updates from me... *tw* AFM....my period has been delayed by over 10 days now and losing hope that this cycle will work out and I can transfer this month. I am sure my body is still adjusting after the loss but was hoping we could start the process sooner rather than later. Wish something would work out and fall into place but guess it is not meant to be yet.
@lmajin99. I'm so sorry your body is not cooperating. I'm hoping it comes soon so you can get started. Have the doctors tried giving you a course of Provera or something to get you going??
@Hopeful_mom. As you know, every pregnancy I'd different, and it is still early so I'm sure they're will be plenty of time to puke your guts out in the weeks coming up😝 and you can totally ask for those signs from your loved ones...they love to let us know they are with us. Highly suggest that book. It was amazing.
@lrynwnab what ended up happening when you spoke with your doc?? I've often thought the same thing if a cycle turns natural what happens with ERA timing. Hopefully your body cooperates and you can transfer soon.
@jamieh2000 the signs keep on coming. I swear I haven't felt this connected to spirit in a long time. It's such a blessing.
@BusinessWife. thanks girl. Lots of hope here. How are you feeling?? Congrats on graduating!!
@Kp214. Thanks girl. 6 is amazing. How are things going now?
AFM: Baby Boy and Baby girl are on board!! Now here comes the 2 week wait. Enjoying my valium day. Feeling so hopeful and positive and finally letting go of expectations and knowing whatever souls come through this cycle are meant to be here at this time. Thanks for all the prayers ladies. Happy to be PUPO!

@Hopeful_mom I started follistim and menopur last night and go for monitoring on Friday. thanks for checking on me. I know it’s hard to not compare. One day at a time. When is your next u/s?
@Imajin99 I’m so sorry you are delayed. It is so frustrating. Prayers that you get to transfer soon.
@andreamm31 yay! PUPO! Snuggle in sweet embabies! Will you test early?
Afm, just waiting for monitoring on Friday and praying some follicles are growing and not ovulating early. I worry about everything.

Hey ladies! Thanks for all of the messages. @andreamm31 , so exciting on the transfer! Fx! Thanks @Hopeful_mom and @JamieH2000 -- when I went back in on Monday I had a 9.3 lining and a 20 mm follicle so they had me take a trigger shot Monday night. I will transfer Monday. Tonight I am starting progesterone, lovenox, and an estrogen patch. I have never done this protocol before, so it's kind of crazy. Thinking about my one transfer that resulted in my son, I honestly can't remember back that far lol but I'm sure it was estrogen. I remember we wanted to do a fresh transfer but my body wasn't cooperating so we did a FET. The last 4 transfers I've had the last 2 years have all been medicated. So, I'm happy to try this path.
@lmajin99- thanks for asking, things are stable here. Finally no more spotting. Just praying for a good AS next week. It feels like a big hurdle to me. I’m sorry your cycle is delayed. That is the worst when you just want to get going!! Ugh. Hopefully if things don’t start soon they can have you in for some blood work and scan and see if there a cyst or anything delaying AF.
@andreamm31- awww PUPO!! Yes!! You should in an amazing place. I’m so happy for you. Think you will hold off on testing? Both of my BFPs I held off for the call so now I’m superstitious on that!
@kp214- I worry about everything too, I get it! I hope things look perfect on Friday!!!!
@lrynwnab- sending you all the good vibes for Monday transfer!! Come on miracle rainbow baby!!!

@jamieh2000@kp214. Thanks ladies. I'm thinking I will hold off on testing. Definetly at least until day 8. After that, if I get the itch real bad, then I might do it. But im hoping I can make it to beta. Testing always messes with my head.

@andreamm31 Yes to PUPO!! Hope all went smooth and you have a relaxing two week wait (if possible ) I did just finish a dose of provera so lets see what happens. @JamieH2000 Glad to hear that things are better and I can understand the nerves till your next scan. Keep in mind your body knows what to do so hopefully everything is well and baby is snuggled in well. Thanks for advising of the cyst issue as I did not know that could delay your period. @lrynwnab Wishing you lots of luck on Monday! @kp214 Thank you! Hoping you gets lots of nice follicles this cycle.
I wanted to check in and let you know that I'm thinking of you ladies! I'm always rooting for you.
andreamm31 - Good luck to you, sister! Praying that this is IT for you. Imajin99 - You're so strong! Sending you love and positive vibes. @JamieH2000 - I'm sorry you can't just have a smooth go of it, but stay positive. I know what a relief it will be to get past the AS. @kp214- Good luck on your scan tomorrow! Hoping for a great result. @lrynwnab - Cheers to your upcoming transfer! Take care of yourself. Hopeful_mom - Ugh, yeah the worrying is understandable. Stay positive though, you've got this! *TW* Lots of women (myself included) do not have morning sickness and go on to have perfectly healthy pregnancies.
@c-town18 you are so correct my friend!! Its just that I'm such a naseous person I knew it would only be a matter of time to hit me...talk about every pregnancy being different! I so didn't want to be the worrier but who was I kidding, its just inevitable! Hopig all is well on your end!!
andreamm31 - woohooooooo PUPO!! I'm so happpy for you tranferring the perfect duo! Hope the TWW is a good one. I hear you holding out for the call, I gave in the day before as I was just starting to panic too much. I'm sure you're family will keep you calm throughout sending you love! This is your time....so please let the cleaning wait. I still have to remind myself not to pick up things to heavy while vaccuming. AND yes you are so right every pregnancy is so different WOW!! I already want to FF a few weeks!! Whats the name of that book again?
@kp214- Have an amazing scan tomorrow! Hoping everything is growing together and looking good! I know we worry about everything but remember you have done everything right for months to prep your body so try t relax friend!
@JamieH2000 - Thinking of you hoping you'll be able to enjoy and relax soon! Each milestone is a gift!
Imajin99 - Thinking of you friend sending you all the good juju your way! Hoping your cycle is on its way and everything can still go according to plan! You know the calendars we get and we act like its our bible from the clinic? Well once mine stopped going according to plan I panicked and thought for sure my cycle would be cancelled. My estrace was not rising as expected and delayed everything, I was pissed and sad too, researching if it was normal...even asking here many times if I could still have a successful transfer as my clinic said we were still ok. I don;t remember the exact number of days but it was probably a good week before my levels were where they needed to be and I could start my PIO for transfer. Don't give up on your body just yet, go with it, you got this girl! Your miracle is coming!!
@lrynwnab - Your lining sounds perfect!! Yay for transfers on monday...that was my last one Sending you super sticky vibes for a perfect transfer!!
AFM: **TW pregnancy mentioned...I will say the fun nausea stick has hit, at least its more in waves then every second of the day...trying to breathe through it. Looking forward to get through this week quickly so I can hear the babies heartbeat next week already! I took my meds later one day and of course I think I ruined everything. I just want to feel more positive through these weeks. Hope everyone is keeping cool!

afm, I had 2 follicles that grew this time, 17 mm and 10mm. I’m bummed that they aren’t together and I don’t have more but am trying to stay positive that I even have one. I go back Sunday for monitoring. My guess is I’ll have retrieval on Tuesday or Wednesday, if we decide not to cancel this cycle. We will see what the RE says on Sunday.

Went back today. One follicle was 19 and two others were 10 and 7. I cancelled the cycle since there was such a disparity in sizes and had already been told that the 10 might not be big enough on Tuesday for a mature follicle. Oh well. Just going to stop all meds and wait for AF.

Re: Low AMH Level
@JamieH2000 can never be easy, huh?? I know that feeling constantly checking for blood. Just take it one milestone at a time like you are doing and all will be well. I've never been on Lupron , I don't think. I always just start estrogen on day 2 of my cycle. But im sure she will do something like that if that happens. At this point, I don't get excited, I just take it one appt at a time cuz I know at any minute, my cycle can get canceled. Hadn't happened before with a FET until last month...so maybe I'll make it w in a row or I'll get lucky. Who knows. I was hoping to piggyback off my pregnancy hormones from April, but the farther away I get from my pregnancy, the less likely it will help with this next transfer... thats my only concern.

@andreamm31- will be crossing my fingers dor you on Tuesday!!
thanks for the thoughts ladies! Yes- I have SCH, which is really a symptom of bleeding. I think the placenta attaching and hitting a vessel is mostly always what causes an SCH. So it just gives me anxiety the placenta will have issues later. They said I would get a growth ultrasound later to make sure the placenta is working good. But the placenta separating is my biggest fear since there is nothing to be done (like Chrissy tiegens situation). So that’s why I am terrified of new red blood since that would mean new issues. The brown spotting has started to ease finally after 3 weeks.. so hopefully it will end and stay away. I’m just afraid to do more than walk- no quick movements or running or anything

@Kp214 @JamieH2000 thanks ladies. Ultrasound looked good. Only 1 follicle and it's tiny now. So weird!! Lining at 7.8. Recheck in a week and as long as things look OK and lining growing, then transfer on 13th. I added a pomegranate supplement for my lining on top of my vit e, l-arginine, and castor oil packs I'm doing. Hopefully this next one is nice and plump!

@JamieH2000 How are you doing and feeling? Sorry to hear about the scare but glad that the bleeding has stopped and the spotting is slowing down. Wishing you the best through this pregnancy. Kick your feet up when you can which I am sure is hard to do with a toddler running around
@andreamm31 That lining is looking pretty good!
@lrynwnab Awesome, wishing you the best for the transfer.
@lmajin99- thanks for the kind wishes. I’m doing ok. Doing my best to control my anxiety and try to enjoy this time but it’s a real struggle. Hopefully I’ll be able to after the anatomy scan. How are you doing my friend? Any next steps or plans? I hope you are able to enjoy the summer as much as you can, but I’m sure it’s been a tough one sending you soo much love friend.
@tinjp78- welcome back. I’m so sorry to hear about your chemical. I had a chemical last summer and it hit me Haeckel than I ever thought. Thinking of you!

@Hopeful_mom woohooo those numbers sound great. Take a deep breath mama, you got this.
@JamieH2000 thanks sweetie. I appreciate it. I think its my time too hehe. Lining looked good! 8.9 and trilaminar. no other annoying things to derail me this time. I start my progesterone in an hour and we are scheduled to transfer next Tuesday at 1pm. Im really excited! I feel so positive.
Ive been reading this book called Signs by Laura Lynne Jackson and it talks about signs our loved ones send us as validation for letting us know we are on the right path, or just to tell us they are with us. A lot of you know I am a very spiritual person, so I have a pretty strong connection with my grandparents who have passed and when my grandpa first passed, he was sending me the craziest signs to lead me right to my husband and let us know that he was orchestrating it. it was pretty crazy and wild and was magical to be honest. But with all of my struggles the past few years, I feel like I've been less connected. So I read this book and it reminded me that I need to start asking for signs again, but different ones than I have in the past. So I asked my grandpa to send me 1 rainbow if this cycle is gonna produce 1 baby or 2 rainbows if its gonna be 2 babies. A few nights later I had a dream and I saw a double rainbow (apparently loved ones come through pretty strongly in dreams) I then woke up and Instagram was open on my phone and it was a picture of a rainbow. Then later that day I saw multiple pictures that just kept popping up of double rainbows. Now I freaking see double rainbows all the time in weird places, like in my hospital gift shop window. On 4th of July, the dog at the house we were at was playing with a Rainbow plush toy. Its so funny, but so reassuring and validating that this time is gonna work and all will be well. So here's to hoping both these embabies stick. Im ready to have my double rainbow babies!

As for me, I had a baseline appt today after 2 months of Lupron Depot. They had it all scheduled 3 months ago when I would come in, as opposed to waiting for day one of AF. Well, turns out I have a 16mm follicle and estrogen of 80. My doc is out today, but they want me to come back in on Monday and see if they can turn this into a natural cycle. I wasn't able to ask any questions of the backup doc, but my first question would be, i have an ERA of 132 hours, so would a natural cycle affect this?
@BusinessWife Congrats on graduating, glad everything is going well and I am sure you are excited for your first appointmnet with the MDW.
Will catch up on everyones posts soon as I have take some time away from computer.
@kp214- yay for 6 follicles!! I want them ALL to grow!!!
@hopeful_mom- yay for a HB! Huge milestone! Keep growing baby! You got this.

@hopeful_mom Hang in there, you will have the US soon! its almost hump day tomorrow
@JamieH2000 How you doing and feeling? I am hoping that the spotting has stopped and that 2nd trimester is going smoothly. Thanks for checking in, no big updates from me...
*tw* AFM....my period has been delayed by over 10 days now and losing hope that this cycle will work out and I can transfer this month. I am sure my body is still adjusting after the loss but was hoping we could start the process sooner rather than later. Wish something would work out and fall into place but guess it is not meant to be yet.
@Hopeful_mom. As you know, every pregnancy I'd different, and it is still early so I'm sure they're will be plenty of time to puke your guts out in the weeks coming up😝 and you can totally ask for those signs from your loved ones...they love to let us know they are with us. Highly suggest that book. It was amazing.
@lrynwnab what ended up happening when you spoke with your doc?? I've often thought the same thing if a cycle turns natural what happens with ERA timing. Hopefully your body cooperates and you can transfer soon.
@jamieh2000 the signs keep on coming. I swear I haven't felt this connected to spirit in a long time. It's such a blessing.
@BusinessWife. thanks girl. Lots of hope here. How are you feeling?? Congrats on graduating!!
@Kp214. Thanks girl. 6 is amazing. How are things going now?
AFM: Baby Boy and Baby girl are on board!! Now here comes the 2 week wait. Enjoying my valium day. Feeling so hopeful and positive and finally letting go of expectations and knowing whatever souls come through this cycle are meant to be here at this time. Thanks for all the prayers ladies.

@JamieH2000 Glad to hear that things are better and I can understand the nerves till your next scan. Keep in mind your body knows what to do so hopefully everything is well and baby is snuggled in well. Thanks for advising of the cyst issue as I did not know that could delay your period.
@lrynwnab Wishing you lots of luck on Monday!
@kp214 Thank you! Hoping you gets lots of nice follicles this cycle.
andreamm31 - Good luck to you, sister! Praying that this is IT for you.
Imajin99 - You're so strong! Sending you love and positive vibes.
@JamieH2000 - I'm sorry you can't just have a smooth go of it, but stay positive. I know what a relief it will be to get past the AS.
@kp214- Good luck on your scan tomorrow! Hoping for a great result.
@lrynwnab - Cheers to your upcoming transfer! Take care of yourself.
Hopeful_mom - Ugh, yeah the worrying is understandable. Stay positive though, you've got this! *TW* Lots of women (myself included) do not have morning sickness and go on to have perfectly healthy pregnancies.
andreamm31 - woohooooooo PUPO!! I'm so happpy for you tranferring the perfect duo! Hope the TWW is a good one. I hear you holding out for the call, I gave in the day before as I was just starting to panic too much. I'm sure you're family will keep you calm throughout sending you love! This is your time....so please let the cleaning wait. I still have to remind myself not to pick up things to heavy while vaccuming. AND yes you are so right every pregnancy is so different WOW!! I already want to FF a few weeks!! Whats the name of that book again?
@kp214- Have an amazing scan tomorrow! Hoping everything is growing together and looking good! I know we worry about everything but remember you have done everything right for months to prep your body so try t relax friend!
@JamieH2000 - Thinking of you hoping you'll be able to enjoy and relax soon! Each milestone is a gift!
Imajin99 - Thinking of you friend sending you all the good juju your way! Hoping your cycle is on its way and everything can still go according to plan! You know the calendars we get and we act like its our bible from the clinic? Well once mine stopped going according to plan I panicked and thought for sure my cycle would be cancelled. My estrace was not rising as expected and delayed everything, I was pissed and sad too, researching if it was normal...even asking here many times if I could still have a successful transfer as my clinic said we were still ok. I don;t remember the exact number of days but it was probably a good week before my levels were where they needed to be and I could start my PIO for transfer. Don't give up on your body just yet, go with it, you got this girl! Your miracle is coming!!
@lrynwnab - Your lining sounds perfect!! Yay for transfers on monday...that was my last one Sending you super sticky vibes for a perfect transfer!!
AFM: **TW pregnancy mentioned...I will say the fun nausea stick has hit, at least its more in waves then every second of the day...trying to breathe through it. Looking forward to get through this week quickly so I can hear the babies heartbeat next week already! I took my meds later one day and of course I think I ruined everything. I just want to feel more positive through these weeks. Hope everyone is keeping cool!

afm, I had 2 follicles that grew this time, 17 mm and 10mm. I’m bummed that they aren’t together and I don’t have more but am trying to stay positive that I even have one. I go back Sunday for monitoring. My guess is I’ll have retrieval on Tuesday or Wednesday, if we decide not to cancel this cycle. We will see what the RE says on Sunday.
