Good morning ladies!! Sorry to hear that nobody thinks they have good news to report. I am pretty much right there with you all. But, we still must remain patient. It isn't over till you know who shows up. And, not to give anybody false hope... remember that a lot of women spot and or have light periods and are still pregnant. I still really have no signs of anything... a BFP or a visit from AF. Tomorrow will be 16 days past the HcG shot but 2 days before AF is due. Getting antsy to test and get it over with.... but scared because I know that I will see a negative. AAARRRGGHHH!!! Well, that just about sums up how I am feeling today.

Good morning. CC, I am glad you got in to see your RE. Remember you are in charge! Did you ask her why she doesn't believe in pcos?? I have been told several times that I am not typical pcos. I pluck a few hairs on bb and chin, I don't have the pco's, I just have long or nonexistant periods and no ovulation. I have responded to the metformin by having periods and very late ovulation. But I believe I have it. My Re said it reads like a menu-where you pick symptoms a,b,d,e,... which ever ones apply to you because it is a syndrome. Does that make sense?? I know with my new RE I went in and told her I wanted to continue with metformin and do femara this month. She was fine with that. We will see if this month is unsuccessful. I truely believe the metformin has helped me in a number of ways-especially dropping some weight. I always carry an extra 15-20 lbs no matter how good I eat or how much I exersize. So I do think it has been an answer for me. Hang in there and really follow your heart. If it doesn't feel right-look at other options. I don't mean to be negative, I just want the best for YOU!! Keep asking questions and picking her brain!! Tracy, Lori and Lynn hang in there it isn't over until the hag raises her ugly head. Well today is 10 days past hcg-which I researched online and read that it usually exits your in 10 days??? Anyway armed with that info I did another hpt this morning and still got a bfp?? I am not sure whether it is a true one yet, but I am keeping my fingers crossed. I'd like to list off symptoms, but don't want to get my hopes up and over thing this whole damn thing. I was up in the night going nuts over this whole ttc thing. YEESH. Then was awakened at 6:43 am by a small but a big bang of a quake. It wasn't a big one, only it felt more like a bang than a shake. So that was my night-hey maybe it shook the old egg in??? My bbs have been sore and retasted my lunch looking thru the meat department. So whoooooooo knows. Anyways I am rambling on. Emm hope it doesn't hit during urologist appointment. Just what you need 2 men that don't quite get it but try to fix it anyway!! Hang in there ladies and big hugs. BELLYRUBS!


Lori - February 5th, 2006 1:55 PM

Tracy - I sent you an e-mail. I hope you don't mind. JCR - remember last cycle when I took the HPT at 7 days past the HcG shot and it was negative?? So, I have everything I can think of crossed that your BFP is the real deal!!!

Hi ladies, sorry i have been gone. Dh and I went to Vermont and came back to have our Super Bowl party. I hope everyone is well. I am sorry i do not have much time right now to catch up. I wanted to check in. The weekends are tough. On a ++ note. I am in shock. dh and I did the bd 3 times in 24 hours and he well you know all three of those times. I am very shocked that is not like him. usually it is once a day. Maybe third time will be a charm.. Lol. Sorry I just had to share. Only a couple of hours until football season is over. Yippee.. I am only having people over for my dh. I hope everyone is well. I am calling the dr tomorrow. Baby Dust and Happy Thoughts.


Tracy - February 5th, 2006 7:22 PM

Lori- I don't mind, email whenever you like. I like getting email from friends and family. I think that's why I visit this sight so often. I can talk and respond to five people at once if I want to.


Tracy - February 5th, 2006 7:23 PM

Sorry, meant to spell it "site".


Tracy - February 6th, 2006 8:36 AM

Good morning people! Just a quick note to say Happy Post Football season! I have nothing much to report except that I spotted yesterday morning, and nothing so far this morning. The day has only just begaun though, and last month when I spotted, once it was later in the day at work, so we'll see. Had cramping yesterday, but not really AF'ish. Doesn't mean though that she isn't coming. I have an appointment tomorrow at my OB's office to get my vitamin B12 shot and while I'm there, I'll get to find out what my day 21 progesterone level was. I'm praying that one of these days I'll be there for my pregnancy test. Let me know how you all are doing....peace.


EMM - February 6th, 2006 9:03 AM

Good morning everyone. Today is the day that we go to the urologist to find out the results that they have kept from us for over 2 weeks. I know that we need to know the count, motility and morbidity, but are there other things that I should be asking? Thanks!


EMM - February 6th, 2006 9:05 AM

Is it suposed to be morphology not morbidity? See I have no idea what that means!!


d - February 6th, 2006 9:33 AM

Morning Ladies, Football is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tracy are you going to test?Emm please let us know what they say today. I know i am pissed at my dr and will be calling sometime this am. Baby Dust and Happy Thoughts.


Lori - February 6th, 2006 11:01 AM

Well, I tested this morning and of course it was a BFN! Expecting the B**** to arrive either tomorrow or the day after. Surprisingly, I am not as depressed about it as I thought I would be. Maybe I am just numb to it all by now. It looks like it is back to "real" life for me for at least a couple of months, no more fantasizing about babies. Still have everyting crossed for the rest of you who are waiting!!


Tracy - February 6th, 2006 11:16 AM

D--I'm not going to test. Whenever I do it is always BFN and then the witch always shows, so I'm not going to waste my money this time. Just figured when the witch shows, that will give me my answer. I know that's a negative perspective to take, but it's reality, and I'm tired of dreaming. Friday is the latest I expect her, so we'll see between now and then. Emm--my doctor mentioned something about the viscosity of DH's sperm. Maybe that's how fast they move, I'm honestly not sure. Anyhow, I will check in so please post. I'm just cleaning house today. There's cat hair everywhere and I'm getting some sinus pressure, so I figured it's time for some deep-down cleaning.


d - February 6th, 2006 11:17 AM

Lori, Sorry to hear about your BFN. Don't give up just yet. You never know, Just like you told me. When is the witch not due?


Tracy - February 6th, 2006 11:17 AM

Lori--so sorry about the BFN.....that's why I won't test. It hurts too much sometimes and you never know how it's going to hit you until you see it.


to Lynn - February 6th, 2006 12:43 PM

I read your post about your hair. I just visited an RE so I have been reading about the endocrine tests and thought this might be of interest to you if your RE has not mentioned it. This is a test my RE runs: DIHYDROEPIANDOSTERONE SULFATE (DHEA-S) - A prehormone produced mainly by adrenal glands. Elevated levels in woman can cause hirsutism (excessive hair growth) and interfere with ovulation.


CC - February 6th, 2006 1:51 PM

Good morning everyone..I was sort of down thiswhole weekend after the crazy RE overload so I decided to be scarce and not bring everyone else down w/ my mood. To top it off, AF started yesterday, a few days early. I was expecting it, so I wasnt sad about that, but sad that because it was early, we will miss this month w/ the RE, we just wont have everything done in time, or insurance authorizations..thats the way it goes I guess. EMM-sorry about your BFN, and good luck w/ your Dr appointment w/ dh. Please let us know how you make out. Lori, sorry for your BFN. I am there with you and still just feeling overwhelmed and frustrated all at the same time. Why something that seems to easy for some isnt for us is beyond me. I have been trying not to feel angry about that all weekend. Tracy, I also thought your cm was a great sign, maybe the spotting isnt AF at all ? Fingers crossed for you! jcr, maybe you do have "real" good news!! If you are 10 days past HCG, what cd does that make you ?? Oh oh, I am excited for you!! I pray its a true result! Well, now today you should be 11 days past HCG...When can you find out without a doubt?? Please, let it be!!! That would be such great news. Keep us posted please!!
Otherwise..no news w/ me. It will be another month before we can start IUI so this month will be just like last, sort of feels like a mini vacation from it all I guess. I am off work today and meeting sister in law, so I will chk back later tonight! Looking forward to reading updates from EMM and jcr!
