DCL, see, you did it! Silly girl, you were all panicked for nothing! So so happy for you, sincerely. Tink, excellent, excellent news! Our cup do runneth over, does it not? (sorry, was just reading about Jesus' tomb discovery hence the archaic language) JB, didn't I extend an invitation already? Oh sorry, I thought I did. All you girls are invited to visit me in Paris (or the burbs if I move out there) and I will drive you around in the new car (which once it arrives will be an automatic since DP is a Canadian diplomat and has ordered his car from Canada as we get it 50% cheaper with the diplomatic discount, don't ask, very complicated). Anyway, you have to learn on a stick here, I don't mind, it'll just mean that I'll be able to drive both stick and automatic. So please, come and visit and I promise that we'll have a ball! Mega, love your very original way of announcing to your in laws that their son knocked you up, totally love it! Janae, I too either hit or pinched DP one night long ago because I was so pissed at him for snoring while I couldn't get to sleep. He woke up and bellowed at me as he had no idea why I was hitting him. Very funny in retrospect but it wasn't at the time:) Girls, not only is it the year of the pig but its the year of the Golden Pig. It only comes around once every 60 years so its bigtime lucky! The Chinese government is very uncomfortable right now. With their current one child policy the hospitals haven't been used to dealing with crowds of pregnant women but this year they are expecting a huge number of deliveries and aren't very well prepared with beds, doctors, etc. I'm off to bed now a very happy camper, well done girls. Crossing all appendages for you tomorrow Stacie. I'm even crossing my eyes! Goodnight and sogni d'oro (sweet dreams in Italian).

Hey KB...definitely might take you up on that invitation, rofl! I grew up in Southern Germany (dad in Army) and really miss being overseas so much. I try to go back whenever I can, and I'm supposed to go to Berlin this summer for a conference the last week of July (hope I'll still be able to make that!). Been all over Europe but never France or Italy--that oversight really needs to be corrected!! Michelle--if you're anything like me, you are hating tight clothes right about now, lol! Those jeans were a lifesaver. At least you don't need to worry about petite sizes :D Being short stinks when it comes to finding normal clothes (Banana Republic for ex. doesn't carry petites in most stores) and I'm sure it's going to get way worse with maternity!

Hi everyone,
Just thought I'd pop in, haven't posted in a while. Had a tough day yesterday, went in for my egg pick up ended up getting 20 eggs. The pain was excruciating, as I have hyper stimulation, but all went well. They called me today to say that 17 eggs had fertilised, so I'll be going in tomorrow for the embryo transfer. Hopefully things will go well, and baby dust to all of you...

WOW; Holy Crap!!!!!!!Let me get this straight: Since I posted a couple of weeks ago: Jody, Janae, Staci, Kim, Michelle and DCL all BFP'S!!!!!!!!!!! Holy crap February ruled for IVF Success. Congratulations all; I hope that March shows a bunch of BFP's too. Maybe someone can start a fresh thread for March--the clean slate theory worked in February. I'm not sure when I will start my IVF cycle; DH and I will complete a class on doing the shots in the next week or two (stupid since I give myself a subcutanious shot everyday for 3 years and now give myself a intramuscular weekly. I hate POLICY)and then I guess we will schedule after that.....I hate waiting to start this process. I was hoping we would start as soon as AF shows--I think that should be in the next 2 or 3 days. I guess we will have to wait this cycle out. Seeing all the BFP's here makes me want to start now. CECKA: I hope the transfer goes well for you--how many will you put in--best of luck!!WOW--Congrats again to all of the mommies to be in 2007****PEGGS

peggsann, I've decided to transfer just the one for now, as I and DH have been told that if we transfer more than 2, there's more liklihood of a miscarriage if they take...

Hi peggs, join Robyn and I for a fun filled cycle of IVF shots in March/April thread. I'm waiting for that thread to start ;) THis will be my second IVF cycle, as my first one ended up in m/c last month. So, you have two women joining you this next time...

MEGA-153 times will not be necessary...LOL. KB-thanks for the Italian lesson, very cool! Tell your DP, I could
use a car at 50% of the cost...hint, hint!!! LOL!! CECKA- WOW, congrats & good luck. Sounds like what happened
to me except I didn't move forward, I decided to wait. The miscarriage rate was way too high. I had about
22 or 25 eggs retrieved and 19 fertilized. Pretty cool, huh?! I'm looking forward to reading your updates, keep us in
the loop. THANKS PEGGS!!! Good Luck to you & DH. As for me, it is raining so badly over here... we are off to
Maryland for the weekend, so that will be about a 4 hour drive if all goes well. Hopefully not too many stops in
between. SOMEBODY PLEASE START A NEW THREAD!!!
