MEL - so the PIO is getting to you already gosh the suck so much. I hope and pray this is the absolute last month you will ever have to suffer again. I am sorry that your dad is starting to lose his hair i couldnt imagine seeing my parents suffer in any way. But whatever helps him. So wednesday is the big day for you i am so happy for you everything seemed so much better this cycle. When it comes to you and your cycles i feel like i do for Mega you deserve this so much you are so strong to keep putting yourself thru this now your 3rd and better be final time. My hubby and I were talking today thinking we have 4 frozen embies and his boys are frozen we were wondering how soon after we have the baby that we go thru it again. I said lets see how we handle a newborn because having 2 that small is a lot of work and one is gonna be hard enough. Anyway gonna eat dinner luv you all.

Hi CARON_ I totally agree, no need to stress - you have enough om your plate what with your dad's chemo and everything. (((HUGS))) RHONDA_ WHo knows there is so much goo coming out of us at any given time, one never knows, lol! ROBYN_ Already discussing a recap huh... I agree, wait to see how you do with the newborn. How is the bleeding? I guess I should turn in, 3am comes early. I'll pop back tomorrow. Hopefully I'll see names here then. (I wanted to say faces but that just wouldn't fit now would it) Goodnight!

hi ladies, I HAVE A CONFESSION I TESTED EARLY THIS MORNING AND ITS A BFN, transfer was last monday. i feel so bad after testing i didnt even wanted to go to work. i bought pregnancy test at the DOLLAR store. are those good brands. ;;;;;;;;;;, i am afraid i will be testing every day now>>>> the two week wait is torture to me.

Esmeralda its still early you had the transfer on the 5th it was a 3 day. Its only been 8 days, I got a very very very faint positive on either 9 or 10 days after transfer you could barely see it on the test. Give it a few more days.

Esmeralda also i never did dollar tree so i dont know how sensitive they are the first response early is the test i did and they are the best and most sensitive. I did 7 of those all saying positive i did a clear blue digital easy read the same days and they came up negative. It just may be the test.

thanks robyn. You gave me a wee bit
of hope here. I will buy first response
and test on Thursday, beta is Saturday
I just don’t want any surprises.

Robyn did you have any symptoms.
I don’t have any, the breast tenderness
is going away. There is no craving.
any I am not turned off from any
food, ?????? I occassionally feel like
my period is coming.

Katt, I'm so happy my opk came in handy. Ican't believe the other brand kept on giving you a neg. Good for you for calling the company. Yes, I hope three times the charm for you as well!! That's kind of funny about giving Rascal benedryl to sleep. Maybe that would work on ds! Haha! Rhonda, I'm not sure about the clear gel discharge, I never got that when prego. Maybe your body is just going through changes because you're so close to giving birth. How many days now? Robyn, let us know how the u/s goes today. I'm sure everything will be just fine. Esmerelda, It sounds lke Robyn is right. It's probably too early. Hang in there. Caron, I completely understand why you don't want the daily reports. It's better not to drive yourself crazy. I hope your dad is in good spirits, he's is in my thoughts.

Esmeralda i keep forgetting your test is still a little over 5 days a way you are early i promise you that. You more than likely would not get a BFP at this point. The symptoms that i had was the cramping that AF is coming and right around the time i got the BFP i was constantly hungry but remember not everyone gets signs at all. Some get lots of signs and some get absolutely nothing. I know your anxious trust me i know as it gets closer test again i even tested the morning of my beta just to make sure it was positive. And honestly if you are taking the test up till the day of the beta including the day of and its negative that yes more than likely it is negative but as we all know the blood test is the most accurate. But as i said before the First Response Early Test is the best out there here is a website that i used alot its called: http://www.peeonastick.com/ it will give you a lot of info on HPTs they highly recomment the first response.

On my way to the docs office wish me luck will post later this afternoon.

Hello to all my beautiful friends,how are you all doing?Esmeralda i do think it was to early for you to test.8 days would give you a false neg.You should wait at least a couple more days.I have always used dollar test,i beleive they measure 25,they always worked for me.The earliest i ever got a bfp was 11 days.Katt im excited for you to test.How is Rascal doing?He is so darn cute.Brooke i have not noticed anymore of that gel looking stuff.My c-section is on the 23rd.Im actually due on the 1st.Well Mark has a dr appt at 4 pm today for his arm.It hurts him really bad.It just hurts and tingles and goes numb from the elbow down,but occasionally his shoulder will start to hurt as well.I will let you know how the appt goes.

Im so stressed out today.My mom is lives with us and i take care of her.Well sometimes she pisses her bed and i have to change her damn sheets well yesterday she pissed to bed so i washed her sheets then this morning she shit in her bed so i have to wash her sheets again.Im so stressed out from taking care of her.And then alot of days she has trouble getting out of bed and i have to pull on her and it hurts me.Im fearing for long she may have to go into a nursing home,it is getting harder for me to take care of her.Im tired of having to wash her sheets constantly.or she will sit at the kitchen table smoking a damn cigerette and say she needs to go pee,but instead of getting up and going to the bathroom she will just sit at the table and go on herself.It is hard on me to lift her she weighs around 160-165 and it hurts my back and my stomach so bad lifting on her.I had to help her out of bed this morning because she said she could not get up and now my stomach is cramping so bad from having to pull and push on her.Im so tired of all this.I have 4 children to take care of soon to be 5 and i have to take care of her like she is a baby.Im sorry to burden you girls with this but i needed this vent.My mom is 60 yrs old she has diabetes,high blood pressure,osteprosis,weak kidneys,bad heart,mental condition and only god knows what else.I can only do so much.Im cramping from pulling on her and now i have to wash her sheets and remake her bed,It would not be such a big deal if i did not have to use milk jugs to feel the washer to wash and rinse.This is all so overwhelming.I have nobody who could come here and stay to help me out for a while.After my c-section when my mom has her days she cant get out of bed,she will have to lay in bed all day long until Mark gets home.Providing he dont lose his job.Im under so much stress.I just need somebody to stay here and help me.I have no rest what so ever in my life.My mom is so demanding.And if i ever mention putting her in a home where she can get better care she gets fighting mad at me and tells me i need to be in a home and that she is going to have me put in a home.Or she will start name calling.She call me a bitch if she gets mad at me,calls me a whore and all sorts of things.She wants to spend her whole ssi check on cigeraettes instead of helping pay bills.She wants to smoke a ciggerette every 10 min.So i have to keep her cigereetes hidin from her and give them to her one per hr.She will call mark a bastard,son of a bitch and everything else.She has diabetes and she wont listen to me about eating,She will just get into everything even when i tell her no.She wants to drink a 12pk of diet soda a day when her kidneys are real bad and her dr dont even want her having much soda.If i say no more soda,the second my back is turned she is getting herself a soda to drink.She pisses in her pants and wont change her clothes for 2 days.Im so tired of having to struggle to get her to keep clean.She does not appreciate anything i ever do for her.She never thanks me for anything.I cry alot because of how stressed out she makes me.People are always complimenting me on taking care of her and keeping her out of a home,but they dont understand how hard it is all on me.I can never get her to help me do anything.If i say mom go in your bathroom and get me your clothes basket so i can wash your laundry,she says i cant my back is hurting.Or i cant my stomach is cramping.She leaves her soda cans all over the place,gets food all over and i always have to clean up her mess.If i let her dog out to go bathroom i say mom go let daisy back in,she says i cant i got to go pee,or i cant my back hurts.I have to watch her take her medicine because she will drop her pills and wont even try to pick them back up.Im doing my best to take care of her but it is so hard on me.I never asked for my mother to end up this way.She gets on kicks where she thinks she is pregnant and if you say to her your not pg mom she gets fighting mad.She even tells me i am not pg.I dont know what to do.Oh gosh girls i hate putting all this crap on you and i apologize for the cuss words i have used,but things are so hard on me.I appreciate you all listening to me.Im glad i have all of you.

Hi girls ... I just have a couple mins before the baby wakes, but just wanted to say hello. KATT, thanks for the pics, he sure is a good looking boy, and I know what you meam abnout the dog poop ... I have it accumulated since last November!! I couldn't clean it up because I was on bed rest, then by the time I was able to, it was covered in snow ... I am dreading the Spring, LOL!! Hi ROBYN, I hope you are doing OK and resting as you should, I am looking forward to hearing what sex the baby is. RHONDA, it's going to be soon, how long will you be in the hospital? Do you have enough clothes for Sophie? I hope so. Well, we are doing OK, it is DH's first day back at work today and I miss him, but glad that he will have a full paycheck again ... I am so excited we just bought a 50 inch plasma TV, it's being delivered tomorrow and I can't wait, never had one bigger than 32 inch before, and we got a really great deal, regular price $3299 and we paid $1998, it was actually a mistake on the model in the ad, but they had to give it to us. Well, hi to all the other ladies, I will check in again soon. Love you all!

Rhonda, no need to apologize for the cussing. I use more than that on a daily basis and hate to admit it but I do. I look at it this way, you have done for your mother what it take most people to even try. If you feel you cannot keep on doing it, put her in a home. My MIL's mom is EXACTLY like your mom and she refuses to do anything and has most of what your mom has. My MIL was most of the one doing the work because her stupid brothers were TOO BUSY. I mean they were but they also don't visit her either so it was sort of an excuse. MIL had to finally say to her dad, I'm putting mom in a home. She'll get good care and rehab like she needs and that we can't offer her. So for almost 6 months she's been in there. She came home for about 3 weeks around Christmas because she promised to work on rehab and taking her meds but then refused once home so they put her right back there. So my point is your mother might be fighting mad at your for suggesting it but in the long run you are helping her more than she'll know. Before putting her in one though, do your homework. Check the place out and make sure it's reputable and a good place. Do just take her to the first one in town. She might not understand why you are doing it but she'll understand that you'll be finding the best care for her. When mom's, grandma's etc get sick they lose all reasoning so it will take time for her to understand but she will. You might not see it but she really will. I am not by any means telling you to do it but just giving you some insight. Like you said you'll be having 5 kids and you have to do what you have to do for your family now. Yes she is your family but the health of you, Mark and the kids are just as important. Just start doing some research on homes in your area to give you some insight, its not like you have to make a decision immediately. Hi to all you ladies. Will update you guys later and do personals but felt I needed to respond to Rhonda because I did have some experience regarding her situation.

RHONDA, I just read you post. I'm so sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time. I know it's your mother and all, but you have to put you and your family first ... and you let her smoke in your house ... around your children?! I honestly hope that you won't allow the smoking to go on when the baby is born, a baby exposed to second hand smoke has a %50 higher chance of dying of SIDS. Before I left the hospital, the nurse explained to us that after DH smokes, he has to wash his hands and face and change his clothes before handling the baby because even the chemicals absorbed by his skin and clothes are harmful to the baby. I don't want to sound harsh, but smoking around children is child abuse. Again, I'm sorry, but I feel really strongly on the subject.

thanks ladies.
I think I better just hang on and
hope for the best. At least I
feel a little better, I was feeling
so depressed this morning.
