Renee~ Wow sounds like twins :) might be a great possiblity. How do you feel about that? I am worried with IVF that my chances of twins are very high. When I was a kid that is all I wanted but now it scares me for their health and well being. I am so excited for you. Did you feel different before you tested? LIke you knew what the test was going to say or were you totally surprised? How is dh? He must be so happy? I am going on the 20th for post op then I go on Aug 2 to see my re for the date we will start ivf. I am so excited I hope our due dates won't be that far away from each other :)

Big hugs :)

Ange, Girl, I'm praying for you, you deserve this. We will only be a few months apart! Lets keep the faith.

Well the numbers (HCG) was a little high which could mean twins or more.... but that scares me. I would love to have twins, but I had my son 3 1/2 weeks early and he was only 5 lbs 4 1/2 oz. So if I had more than one I would be worried about there health, but this is all up to God, these are Him baby/babies.I had 4, maybe 5 eggs. I just want the one or more baby/babies to be healthy.

Thats execiting that the IVF is getting closer and closer!!! Are you going to tranfser 2 eggs. Twins would be fun... are long as every thing went well.

I didn't have too many signs before I tested, it was un- like all the other cycles with all those symptoms. I tested on Sat and that night before, I was sick, though I might of had the flu??? I didnt feel very postive about this one, I was just going to take it easy, so when I got that BFP, I was very surprized, I was wondering if I would ever see a BFP again. Dh is very exceited. I just feel like these days are going by sooo slow, I cant wait to get to week 12, that way I will be out of the more scary part of preg. I'm trying not to worry about it, I look at it this was, It's God's children, He is going to do whats best for them, I'm just taking one day at a time, and praying every night, Thank you God that I made it though another day, I also pray every time I go to the bathroom and dont see any spotting.

Ange, we are only going to be a few months apart!!!! Keep me posted on all your steps to IVF.

reply

Renee- Dh is feeling better, but now he needs a root canal! Argh!

We are going to do an injectible cycle with Gonal-F. So waiting for af now.

What meds did you take? You did IUI, right?

reply

Amyjoy, I have heard alot of good things about injecatbles, this will be your cycle. When do you excepet af? Hope she hurries and gets here so you can get this cycle started.

I took clomid 100 mg and the hcg shot and then progestrone 2 days after IUI. Yes, we did IUI this was the 2nd one in a row, but my 3rd IUI.

Love Renee

reply

Renee~ How are you feeling today? 4 to 5 eggs wow!!! I bet you are counting the days till july 25th. We are doing a two embryo tranfer. So our chances of twins is very high. I am more and more excited every day now. I can't wait till next week to see what the dr says.

reply

Ange, So you go to the doc next week, is it to find out went the IVF will be, how excitied. I think 2 eggs would be perfect for you. That one good thing about IVF you get to pick how many eggs you are getting. With the IUI they say the more eggs the better, but now I'm nervous. The time is going by so slow, I cant wait for the 25th! My pants are already tight, I'm doing the old rubberband though the button hole trick. I never had a tummy before this soon. I didnt start showing with my son until 3 months, I feel that big already!! I just hope if I have more than one that I can handle them.

Love ya Renee

reply

LET'S OPEN IT BACK UP!! YIPEEEEE!!


Renee,
I am so excited to hear how many!! Hope the m/s is here in full swing to let you know everything is going well. I know you wont complain a bit!

reply

Jade, Thanks for your support. I cant wait either, once I find out that will make me feel alot better.

So let me know as soon as you get back from you re appt. My fingers are crossed.

Love Renee

reply

Hi girls! I had no net all day today just got it going :) So lets take a poll if we should keep the bfp board here or move it to another board. We need to keep these boards close. So we always stick together. Please let me know what you are thinking.

Renee how are you doing?


Ange

reply

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES...................KEEP THE BFP'S COMING!!

reply

So I guess that is one vote for yes? Right Jade? LOL

1 yes / 0 no

reply

And you are a yes so that makes it 2 yes/ 0 no......

reply

I vote yes, just because I want to keep in contact with all of you. I also want to be here if any of you have questions about, IUI or pregnacy signs, etc. I want some place to talk to you, and I'm here if you need any help or questions.

Love Renee

reply

3 yes /0 no

Please if any ladies object please let us know. I think having a Veteran lounge bfp board on the sounding board is a great idea because most of us on here are IF for many years and we need to see that light at the end of the tunel. I know it makes me happy to be able to talk about the positive and well as the negative. Also all the girls on the veteran lounge bfp will come from the veteran lounge board so we will all be family.

Renee I am so glad you are still with us'

luv to all
Ange

YES!!!

Renee~How is my favorite pregnant person doing? Are you excited for your ultra sound? The 25th right? I am excited for you lol. I can't wait to hear the news of how many babies you have? Are you having m/s yet? What ever you have I pray you have a healthy ones.

keep me posted

luv to you
Ange

reply

So I guess it is a GO for the BFP board- right?

Good!!

So Renee~ Less one week until you find out.... How exciting. It will be such a good feeling to see the heartbeats. Are you going to start telling everyone after the ultrasound?

reply

Ange, Yes, the u/s is a week from today the 25th. I cant wait, I just want to know it I have more than one. Yes, I have been having m/s, I feel terriable, but I love having it. When I'm sick that makes me think every thing is going good.
So how is your UTI? I know I have asked this before but did you buy more than one IVF?

Jade, Do you have a +opk yet? If you get a + opk, the re will do the IUI the next day?? Do you know if you are going to do the trigger shot?
Yes after the u/s on the 25th, we are going to start telling people. I have been changing my clothes about 3 times each morning, trying to find some thing that doesn't show my tummy. I was this size when I was 12 weeks preg with my son.

Love Renee

reply

Renee~ I did opk and it was "almost" positive so probably tomorrow. Then maybe IUI on Friday? If I get a surge before Friday, then I wont need trigger. If not, trigger on Friday. IUI on Saturday, I guess. I will know more when I go back. I have always heard that baby#2 you show faster. I really felt like at 8 weeks my belly was pooching. But you (and me) are really skinny so it has no where else to go. BUt I bet it does make it hard when you are trying NOT to tell people. Well after next week then you wont have to hide it. I am glad to hear the m/s is really kicking in. I am sure it will only get worse......lol

reply

Jade, so what was the opk today? Have you called the re and told them about the almost + opk? Keep me posted.

reply

Renee~ I haven't decided yet of what to do. We need to make that choice on Aug 2. So it is coming soon. I don't know what we can afford yet. We had to pay for alot lately so I hope we still have an option. We only get 30% back of what we pay for. I had a dream last night I saw my son to be :) . He was with my daughter and she was playing with him and helping take care of him. It was so sweet and felt real. I am glad you are feeling good and pregnant and you are so funny that you won't complain about it. Too cute! So do you have a feeling that there is more than one? take care and keep me posted.




BTW Ladies we have another yes to keep the board from Heather. So we are now 5 yes /0 no


luv to all Ange

reply

Ange, Dreams are a good sign!!! The thing with the IVF would be a very hard to decided. Well aug 2nd is almost here!!
I'm not for sure if theres more than one?? Some times I think that there is two, but who knows. Jade had a friend that had pretty much the same beta # as me and she is having twins?? I'm having more m/s then with my son (I think I'm right now anyways??) I have heard thats a good sign of more then one?? Who knows. I have 6 more days to wait.

Love Renee

reply

Renee~ NOT GOOD NEWS FOR ME.......
Basically my life sucks again!! So my follicles havent grown AT ALL since Monday! WTF? And to make matters worse my lining has not improved- but it has gotten worse. SO it went from a 6 to a 4!!! How does that happen. And to top it off my RE is "stumped". GREAT!! I am so f***ing pissed right now I cant even see straight. I mean how can it get worse instead of better in a matter of 3 days? Only me! He guesses the femara is not doing the trick and I will have to move on to something stronger. He doesnt seem to understand how it worked so perfectly last time and it does nothing this time. ANd can you believe he said " Are you sure you took the right medicine" I AM NOT AN IDIOT!!
So I have to go in Monday to see if it has improved at all....... which it doesnt look like it will and then I guess I will have to wait til day 40 again to start provera. And his only comment is " looks like you have some serious ovulation issues" YOu think- you tard!! I could have told him that!!!

reply

My vote is a yes for keeping this here.

Jade - I am sorry to hear about your RE visit. Did someone screw up the measurement? Anway, I will keep my fingers crossed for you for Monday.

reply

LMD~ I dont think so about the measurement. I just think my body is CRAZY. No explanations from the RE........So who knows! I will keep you posted.

reply

Renee~ We are on the countdown- 5 more days!!

reply

Now our poll is at 6 yes/ 0 no!!! Looking good ladies :)

Renee~ whoo hoo 5 more days!
