hellooo my ladies! again, sorry for being MIA.. but i guess thats going to be the norm from here on out. im just busy busy busy. ill keep checkin in and updating every once in a while though! mel.. good luck! dont get down about it.. being positive comes from staying positive =] otilia.. congrats! the heartbeat is such a wonderful little thing to see! so exciting! how far are you now? as for me.. im 19 weeks 3 days. we just went to our prenatal orientation last night.. haha a little late, you're suppose to go before 13 weeks. i pretty much knew everything they went over already, but i think it was good and informative for my hubby. my little one has been kicking up a storm lately.. and i've been able to tell when he/she hiccups.. which is really cute! we dont find out what we're having until next tuesday, the 19th.. but i've gotten in the habbit of calling it a girl. i just feel like its a girl. my husband and i have been having dreams that its a girl.. and although i think im carrying a little low.. i have high hopes for a little girl =] we came up with our girl name.. not yet settled on our boy name. its going to be Isabella Marie for a girl =] also.. chris finally felt her kick last night.. it was SO cute. he was all excited. other than all that.. we're doing really well, the baby is healthy.. and we're pretty much just waiting to find out what we're having! ill keep you updated as soon as i find anything out! think pink for me! hehehe =]

Hello my lovelys...hope you are all doing fine!
OTILIA<TAMMY<BLAIR...glad to hear from you all and thank GOD your miracle babies are doing well. Please take care of yourselves!
MEL--how are you doing, any news? Im praying for you and your eggies! FAITH & PRAYER girl!
STAR...welcome, I know you will enjoy being part of this awesome group!
As for me...I've decided to give it a rest for at least a couple of months besides we will be going on vacation for a month (so I won't be able to post, sorry). We will leave on the 20th, I hope dh & I can get some bd'ng done before we leave ha ha!!! Anyway after a super long cycle this past month (39 days) AF started, however it was only spotting for about 5 days off and on (weird) anyway I guess it will take a couple of months for my body to get used to no meds. ..... so we'll see. Still I keep praying for the rest of you all and my BFP! So keep praying over the holidays...who knows maybe the LORD will grant us our little "miracle babies"! Hugs everyone!

Hey Ladies - I'm back so sorry i didnt post earlier! I had the ET on Monday at 1:45pm, I had 2 transfered - 1 quality A blastocyst and a quality B morula so i was pleased i had at least 2 this time, i just wish they were both A quality!! My dr. didnt sounds to postitive about the B grade so who knows what to think. So now i'm in the waiting game! I was on bed rest all day monday and tuesday and then came down with a cold - hope that doesnt hurt my chances..The pio shots are going much better this time around - i can actually walk. My family dog passed away this week so that was really tough and then my dad found out he may have to have his gulbladder removed after he just had that other major surgery last month so he's pretty upset about that! I had an appt today to check my progesterone and e2 levels and then i go back on the 21st for my beta!! i pray its positive this time - just worried now with my cold and never felt any implantation ?? Lalilove where are you going on vacation for a month too? Tammy wow time is flying by for you!! Hi Blair, Slow, Otilia ,Star!!

LALILOVE- have fun on your vacation we are going to miss you while you are gone. yeah it probably will take your body a few months to get used to no meds so just relax and enjoy yourself. BLAIR-how great that dh got to feel the baby that is so exciting. we understand that you are busy just post when you can and keep us updated. we miss you girls when your gone.MELISSA-so great that you had 2 to transfer. dont worry about that one being a grade b. it may be the one that implants you never can tell. my grandpa always said that the runt of the litter was always the best but he was talking about puppies..lol..anyway i am praying that this is your month. it sure sounds promising.you never know that cold may be a good sign. alot of women get colds around implantation so think positive. and remember that your body will be fighting off that cold and not attching those little embies. i am sending sticky dust to you and i hope that it helps***~~~~~~***my u/s went good today they told me that the cysts that i had on my ovaries have went away and that everything looked good so i go back next wed for another u/s and then they will tell me when to have the shots and when to have the iui so i am getting excited i cant believe that 3 months has already past and here i am starting a new cycle. anyway good luck to all

STAR- do you usually have a long cycle? i mean today would be like cycle day 32 for you, are they normally that long? if not it is looking real good for you.no star they cant find anything wrong with me. no pcos, no endometriosis, nothng, i ovulate on my own, and everything so they suspect that dh has a sperm problem but he decided that if that was the case instead of spending tons of money trying to fix him and it might not work that we should just use a sperm donor so that is what we have been doing. the doc actually said that he thought that dh made the right decision because he said that a couple wih sperm issues can go years trying to fix the sperm and in the end if there is a sperm problem it most likely isnt going to be able to get fixed so he was proud that dh decided to go against the norm and use a donor. the cysts that i had were from the clomid that i took for 2 cycles and the doc said that it was normal for clomid to give you cysts and that once you stop taking it that they usually go away on their own. i havent taken it for 3 months so i guess he knew what he was talking about because they are now gone..lol..do you have reason for them to believe that you have pcos? here are some of the signs: irregular periods, acne, excess body hair, or have had a hard time keeping a normal weight,Irregular periods—periods that come every few months, not at all, or too frequently
Extra hair on your face or other parts of your body, called “hirsutism” (her-suit-is-em)
Acne
Weight gain and/or trouble losing weight
Patches of dark skin on the back of your neck and other areas, called “acanthosis nigricans” (a-can-tho-sis ni-gri-cans)
they will probably do a blood test to check hormone levels and insulin level and cholesterol and they may even do an ultrasound to see if you have tiny cysts on your ovaries. i know that metformin is suppossed to be a real good drug for treating pcos. i hope that everything turns out good when you get tested. wishing you lots of luck. take care

melissa it is still early yet so dont give up hope. colds are real promising because i was one who had a terrible cold before i found out i was pregnant in august. dont give up. i know everything will work out for you. i mean after all that you have been through, it is time for you to get a break, right? i think so. it will happen for you just dont worry and dont give up hope. hope is all we have and if we lose that then we have nothing, so you have to always hang on to any little bit of hope that you have. take care and get some rest. you are probably worn out and need to relax a little anyway. i am thinking positive thoughts for you.

Hello ladies! I hope everyone is doing well. I am doing okay, I am getting really nervous because we learned that we lost our last one at 9w3d and today I am 8w4d. I am praying that this little bean sticks! Melissa - I have never felt implantation before, so I would not worry if you do not. Also, when I got pregnant, my temp did not skyrocket or anything, it just stayed above coverline. I am SO excited for you! Good luck! Slowpoke - Good luck to you as well! It sounds like things are going great! Hi Stepmommel and Star4baby!

Hi ladies. I'm here and I've been reading. Just not adding much. Trying not to get my hope up too much for this month. Melissa, I'm SOO crossing my fingers for you for this month! Otilia, try not to stress too much. Things have been going well this far, so no need to fear the worst. This one is meant to be!! I was really getting my hopes up for this month, it's the first time I haven't spotted by now and AF is due in 3 more days. That and the fact that two days ago my temp dipped and today skyrocketed again. But I took a test this morning for my dh cuz he's just to excited and convinced I'm pg this month, but it was a BFN. It was only one of those $ store brands, but I hear they're just as good. THough they don't say how early they'll detect it. ANyway, I feel no different and don't feel like AF is coming either, so I'm real confused. I DID O, that's been confirmed. Well, I'll keep you all posted, and I apologize for not being so talkative lately. Nothing personal. I still think of all you daily and check in just as often. Hi to Slowpoke and everyone else I left out. Baby dust!!!!

step - I hope you see your BFP this month!! cmelissa - I hope you are feeling better...Maybe getting a cold was a good sign ???? My sister got a cold right around the time she found out she was pregnant and I can remember getting sick around that time when I was preggo w/ my son, so ya never know!! Blairmama, time is moving along for you to!!! That is too funny about the name....one of the only names my hubby and I can agree on so far is Isabelle Adrian, so it looks like if you are having a girl, ours will have similar names! I really liked the name Brooklynn, but my friend just had a baby a few weeks ago and named her little girl that....that b*tch!! Just kidding....They had no clue we liked that name, so its not like she did it on purpose or anything. Well, I should get to bed....hoping BFP's for all of you this month!! Have a Merry Christmas and I will continue to check in every now and then to see how things are going!

hey girls, sounds really positive for all this month. OTILIA-i think that everything will go fine for you this time. try not to worry although i know it is hard. just think it wont be long before you will pass the 9 week mark and you can breathe a sigh of relief and know that it will be fine. STEP-sounds good for you this month. i know about not wanting to get your hopes up though. just because it was - doesnt mean it didnt work for you. if implantation just occured then it will take a few days for the placenta to form and when that happens you will get the bfp. so i am keeping my fingers crossed for you and hope that you get the bfp. MELISSA-i am so hopeful for you this month it really sounds good for you. when do you test? TAMMY-how funny is that? they say that best friends usually think alike, and me and my best friend i will email her sometimes and say something and she will write back and say i was thinking about you and i was gonna ask you that but you beat me to it. i think alot of times people are closer to their best friends than they are their own siblings and it is so weird when you and your friend think so close about different things. in school everyone swore that my best friend and i were sisters and that our mom gave one of us up for adoption and we just didnt know it..lol..we were and still are very close and we think so much alike that it is unreal..lol..anyway good luck to all of you. have a great day
