Lavonda every few hours gargel with warm salt water, it will help with the infection... You can also swallow heaping tablespoons of honey. it will help soothe your throat, right when I found out I was pregnant after IVF I got a horrible cold with bad throat and cough, the honey really helps... Feel better, sleep as much as you can,,

Because I have to wait until Monday for my u/s I decided to finally take an at home preg test just to make sure that nothing has changed . If u remember I didn't test at all during the 2ww period so this. Was my first test and it said pregnant!! It is getting more real everyday but think it will be more real on Monday when we do our u/s! I am not experiencing much morning sickness. My mom and sisters never really had that either so maybe that is heredity I don't know. But anyways my breasts are sore but have been for a couple weeks. So anyways, that is my update just letting everything sink in yet. Hoping things continue to go well and baby grows strong and healthy! Kinda funny my hubby is so protective cautious of me doing much of anything. He is so awesome at helping out around th house and outside! We already are mowing the yard (I love to mow with our mower but he won't let me) Gonna be a long mowing season since we started earlier this year. I love doing yard work but going to take it easuy for a while and let my hubby spoil me . Have a great night everyone!

Lavonda and DL-so happy for you both. I swear with infertility you never quite feel 100% comfortable. You know all of those baby shows where everyone is crying when their baby is born? I thought I would be like that...however, I think I was in such shock that I had 2 babies and I was so worried that everything would go all right, that I didn't appreciate it until at a later date. Try to enjoy the pregnancy as much as possible.
As for me, well, I took the pill last month and we were prepared to do a fresh cycle this month. I never got my period. My RE said that my body overrode the pill. So now we wait until the next cycle until I get my period. I'm hoping to start the drugs then and not have to go on the pill for another month. I swear, it's always some set back with infertility!
Good luck to everyone trying out there!

Lavonda- Congratulations I am so happy for you! It's good to hear some success from you!!
As for me, I finally start my meds on Thursday but don't go in until April 19th for my ultrasound. We are hoping to do the transfer at the end of April beginning of May. I am really hoping this works out, its been a mess just trying to find an egg donor that didn't flake out on us. I am hoping for success, after two failed IVF attempts and being told we needed to do donor eggs I am ready to hear good news.

Lavonda - Congratulations again!!! I did the same thing, I test all the time just to see reassurance...My clinic only tested for the beta numbers the one time, and then I had to wait for tghe uultrasound. My first beta was 100 which is close to your number. All is going to be well, continue taking it easy, don't worry about the house, it will get clean eventually.

Thank you everyone sooo much gor all the well_wishes!
im laid up on the couch today because im still having cramps off and on. I have continued to poas everyday, mostly to keep my nerves calm. the line continues to get alittle darker each day, so that makes me feel better.
my clinic doesnt test betas every two days, but instead they test a week apart... so I will go in agsin on this coming friday for the 2nd beta. and then if the numbers have increased properly, I will go a week from then for an ultrasound to see what we have in there. sometimes I think that this waiting can be worse than the actual 2ww itself. im so scared that we will get to the ultrasound and find nothing. im praying so much everyday.
adide from being a bundle of nerves, im bored. im being lazy until I get a good heartbeat on the ultrasound. so the housework is not getting done. its a wreck around here by now and not having any luck getting anyone else to do it. I guess it will be waiting for me when I decide its ok to move around alot.

Lavonda I think your sounds great. My doctor said anything over 50 was a great staying point.
hope filled I'm not sure of the percentage of splitting but I did want to share that my first number at 14 days past a 3 day transfer was 889. And 2 days later 2728 and it was just one very sticky healthy peanut. So you just never know by the numbers except that you are indeed pregnant lol.can't wait to hear from both of you through out your pregnancies.xoxo

Lavonda That is great news! Congratulations!! Sounds like we are will be about a week apart!! Keep us in the loop!! I'm counting down the days until we get our first u/s we will see if it is one or twins. Does anyone know the percentage of 1 egg splitting? I heard 1%. It would be a shock if it were twins but as long as they r happy we would b happy with 1 or 2!
Everyone enjoy your weekend!

Lavonda...I think 88 is a good number. I'm pretty sure anything over 50 is good! The important thing is that it gets close to doubling in 48 hours. Congratulations! So happy for you!

Nwells hang in there I know there are no words to make u feel better but keep the faith!! Sounds like u got a fun filled summer coming up! I've never been to Maine but sounds and looks beautiful from what little I've seen.
I know when reading the posts that were positive I was happy for them but still wonder why not me. But on the flip side it also gave me hope that it is possible. I have a strong faith and prayed that that God would allow me to have a baby and I got a positive test back so praying the baby continues to grow and b healthy but I also said that if it was negative to help me deal with that as well.
Mablackie I was tested at day 12 and day 14 after the egg transfer. Really anxious for April 2!
Wishing everyone else the very best on where ever they are in this journey,,
Take Care!!

hi everyone!
nwells,.. I have become a firm believer in signs from God. I think what he has planned for us is what will be,.. even though sometimes we dont undwrstand why.
As for me, I am 8dp5d frozen embryo transfer.
I tested yesterday on those ultra_sensitive hpt that I ordered online.
thete the faintest line that I had to double check with everyone in the house to make sure that my eyes werent playing tricks on me. I took another one in the afternoon, and a faint line was there again.
so this morning around 4 a.m., I went to poas again. then line was a tad_bit darker than yesterday. but also, when I whiped, thete was this brownish, grainy looking spotting/discharge on the paper only. my beta is friday.
any thoughts?

Finally some action- whewhooo!!!!
How is everyone, I was checking in every day for awhile and no one was writing, yesterday I had some much exciting new to read about!!!
HOpe- AWESOME and yeah what great #'s!!!! It only takes one!!! So happy for you!!
SO I have been really down and depressed lately , My husband is back to being IFFY about adopting again, he said because he is fine, and they really can't find anything wrong, other than my endometriosis, he feels we can get preg on our own so we have been kind of trying on our own, I am trying not to think about it all but there is no way I can keep my self from thinking. It just sucks, my mind is ALWAYS on "baby". I keep trying to throw myself into other things so I don't think so much, helps a little. Softball just started, so coaching will keep my mind busy for the next two months, then we have wedding in May in Maine, meaning I have shower and bachelorette to go to and then in June and July we will be busy traveling and such, so my mind will be occupied, I HOPE!!!! With that said, just when I feel so down and want to cry a little light appears to brighten my day. This Friday is our meeting with DCF, once that is done we will start the classes, then the case study and then we are on the list for a baby. WELL I work in Hartford and we have a health clinic in our school, the women who is the doctor in the clinic also works for the one in Hartford, she hasn't been here all year because another doctor took her place, so she shows up today and she came to see me and see how I am doing, she knows my story and ask if I was considering adoption, I said we were and she said, tell me when you finish the case study, we get babies all the time and I can recommend you to DCF and you can move up on the list and they will interview you. She said they get babies ALL the time and they need homes. I was talking to my coworker and friend this AM about how I have been down and such and when I told her she was said that is a sign, I so agree it is a sign, from GOD, there is something about all of this. Guess I may be meant to adopt first before anything else!!!

Hopefilled - That makes more sense they retrieved 3. But it only took one! Congratulations! I have never heard of a number that high with only one baby. So I agree with mablackie it could be twins. They will be able to tell when you go for your ultrasound. You can look at your numbers on a website called betabase and kind of compare. But just to give you an idea the average number for twins is around 200 so that is why I think your number seems high. So excited for you!

Hopefilled...congratulations!! So happy for you. It's nice to hear that is only takes one. We did a frozen cycle and only implanted 1 and it didn't take. We are doing a fresh cycle next month and only going to implant one as well (we all ready have twins). BTW, I know you only implanted 1, but 652 is a very high number!!! How many days after ovulation are you? My first number 12 days later was 362 and I was pregnant with twins! Maybe it split???
Lavonda, the trigger can remain in your body for a while, but my guess is that 2 days before your blood work, the trigger shot is gone. I am guessing you are pregnant. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.
Good luck to you all!!!

Thanks Ladies! Went for follow up blood work and found out that my first number was 652 on Saturday. I think when the dr told me it came back positive everything else ran together
today they called me and it was 1663. This a little more than double which is great so next I am scheduled for my first u/s in 2 weeks. Hoping my baby keeps growing and its healthy! This has been an emotional journey but God has answered our prayers just hoping he keeps answering our prayers! Thanks again for your support!

We went to the dr today and waited for them to call us back to tell is I tested positive!!! We are so elated but realize it is the early in the game so we will keep praying that our little baby keeps growing and is healthy.
Lucky they actually retrieved 3 (which we realize is below average) and then 1 fertilized which the dr said was perfect. We said it only takes 1 and two weeks later here we are!!

Lavonda I didn't have any cramping but it is normal from what I hear. I think that the insertion and transfer to your uterus is reason enough for there to be cramping. I had a lot of pain and cramping after my ER. Good luck to you!
Hopefilled I didn't even know they would do a ER with only 1 egg. I had my first cycle canceled due to lack of response. So I never made it to ER. But it only takes one egg so if it was highly rated that is a good thing! Best of luck to you tomorrow. Sending you some Irish luck for St. Pattys day.
I forgot the name but to the woman having triplets good luck with your pregnancy good to hear you are having an easy time. Are you scared about taking care of that many babies? Sometimes I wonder how we got through the newborn stage with just one. I hope you have grandparents who will be available to give you lots of help. I wish you the best of luck and an easy pregnancy the rest of the way.
So my little girl turned 1 yesterday and she is amazing. We are so blessed and thankful to have her. A few people have said well she isn't a baby anymore she is a toddler now. Its true she is her own little person and getting into everything. But its amazing to watch her grow and discover her world. I love that she is starting to talk and communicate with us. But know matter how old she is she will always be my baby!
This forum was such an amazing help to me and inspiration. I hope it can bring you all the same. I wish all so much luck in which ever stage you are in. God bless.

I hope everyone is doing great! My husband and I are considering giving it another try. It is just so expensive and there are so many options to consider. Do we try again with our stuff or someone elses (eggs and sperm)? Do we only try with younger sperm? The doctor said he thinks we are good but threw out the younger option and now I am confused. I am 39 and my hubby is 49. Any thoughts? Has anyone used substitutions?
cntrygrl - I wish you all the luck with your triplets! Very exciting!
amyb- Great news on your healthy baby girl!
nwells- Good luck to you and your husband! I know that it is hard with all the ups and downs.
lavonda- I hope all is well with you!
hopefilled- Good luck tomorrow! Bring on the positive!!!!
dlmiracle- Hope things are going well for you and your little bundle of joy.
I am sending baby dust to all of you! May all our dreams come true!

Hi Everyone! It has been a while since I posted anything but have been trying to keep up on the posts. We decided to try again and got 1 egg we went for the transfer the Dr said it was perfect best we could ask for. That gave me hope! Tomorrow we go to see if I'm pregnant or not. I am hopeful but scared as I to have had cramping off and on. I just wish I knew what pregnant felt like instead of not knowing and questioning everything. Trying to be optimistic but feeling the symptoms like a period. I am being cautiously hopeful. Have a great weekend everyone!!

Hello Ladies,
Just wanted to send some babie dust your way!!!!
Lavonda - You and I have similar cases, so I am so rooting for you and that it works out this time around!!!! Try not to read into things too much. Cramps can be good or bad, is hard to tell, try to rleax and let nature do its thing. I will be praying for you!!!!
cntrygrl - wow, time flies. Very happy for you and your three little ones, many blessings!!!!!
amyb - kiss your little one, is awesome that everything worked out!!!! I too was worry about all kinds of stuff!!!!
Nwell - I did not realized how long the adoption process can be, I wish you the best, who knows maybe this cycle is the one!!!!
God bless you and give each and everyone of you the joy your heart desires!!!!!

Just a quick update for you all...
I am now 22 wks 3 days with the triplets. Praise the Lord it has been a smooth pregnancy so far! Other than swelling feet/ankles/fingers that started in the past week, I can't complain too much! We know that we are having two identical girls and a boy. I go every 2 weeks just to check the girls (for TTTS) and my cervix (which has been holding out quite nicely so far!!). I currently look like I'm full term and so when I tell people that I'm planning on making it to the first week in June they give me a funny look. We feel SO blessed and thankful for these babies. They are constantly moving, kicking, punching. I love it. I know that I'll breathe a little easier once we make it to 24 weeks and their chance of survival goes up and then from there each added week will be another wonderful milestone.
My thoughts and prayers are with each of you that are still trying to get pregnant. I never would have thought last Fall when we started IVF that we would be pregnant on the first try, let alone with triplets. But God always has a plan. Keep the faith and if you think about it please pray for our littles ones that I can keep them "cooking" as long as possible sot that they are healthy little bundles of joy when they arrive.

Oh, good, Lavonda, so glad they survived, I had a FET that went bust because they didn't survive the thaw, so congrats on that.
We are just hanging low right now. We have an appointment next week for a second opinion from another RE. I almost feel guilty doing it. I just want to make sure we're exploring all our options. My current RE is one of the top in the country for people in my age group, so I feel a little nervous going to someone who isn't ranked so high. BUT, I have had some questions in the past regarding the type of care my current RE provides (bedside manner, office staff) that I'm a little uncomfortable with. So, I figured what would be best is to at least get someone else's perspective and go from there? Whatever it is that we wind up doing, I do know that it will be the LAST TRY! Which is so terribly scary to say, but I can't stay in this limbo the rest of my life. Adoption? perhaps, I don't know, once again, another huge expense and who knows if that will work out?
Anyway, on a positive note, it is March 14th and it is supposed to be near 80 degrees here in Indiana, so I'm gonna go enjoy the weather until it is time to get ready for an evening shift at work.
Hang in there everyone!

thank you! we transfered 2 embies yesterday afternoon. it seems that the first 2 survived the thaw, so we still have 5 more snowbabies to try in the future. it felt like the dr had an easier time doing the transfer compared to the fresh cycle. and I got a pic of the embies after the thaw. they look different than the ones from the fresh cycle. my beta test will be on the 23rd. I know that the clinic does not want us to poas,..... but...... I dont think I could stop I went online an ordered several test strips that are said to be sensitive to 10 , instead of 25 or 50 like most of the tests u can buy in stores. im excited, but scared and nervous at the same time. when we got our bfn agter the fresh cycle I was crushed. im sure most of the rest of u gals know that feeling. I dont want to let my self get soooo dawn if this try doesnt work. im still mot sure how much activity to allow myself to do. the last time,.. I walkef on egg shells, did the bedrest thing, tried the pineapple and walnuts...etc. and it failed. this time I havent done any of those things and.. im just recovered from the flu,..my entire family caught it. if u think about it, people that become preg that natural way dont even think of staying in bed for days,..etc. I guess ive come to terms with the fact that if its going to work.. then it will no matter what I do.
so whats been going on with all u othet ladies lately? it seems too quite on this board lately.

NWells you are right, it is quiet on here! My baby girl is 2 months now and certainly keeping me busy. Precious, precious I am very lucky I wanted to share that although 2 ultrasounds while I was pregnant, the 20 wk and another at 30 weeks, indicated she would have a malformed right kidney, we have now found out that it is fine! From the beginning, our girl has beat the odds every step of the way. I hope for the same luck for all of you on here that are trying! Here in Oregon we are have having a rare 65 degree day and I am loving the sunshine. Take care everyone, baby dust all around.

WOW!!! its is a ghost town on here- Buler Buler!!!!
Just checking in!!!! I see many of our new moms must be really busy with there little ones... So awesome!!!
Fligirl- Relax, take time to make a decision, I know you will make the one that is best for you!!!
Me, I am patientally awaiting Myrtle's arrival, she usually isn't late but after a cycle it takes her a couple months to get back on schedule, but seriously she shouldn't be late it drives me crazy and makes me a basketcase, thinking that just maybe, just maybe!!!! I don't POAS though because I know she is coming, plus I don't have any of the other signs really, cramps I have, chest tender, but always is anyway,I was "backed UP" over the weekend, but I was taking a cough med with oxcodone in it so I think that could have been the reason, I am back to normal as of yesterday, I am tired but have been sick for over two weeks with a lung infection, still can't shake the stupid cold, and I am spotting light brown. All signs she is coming, however she was due two days ago and has been doing this since... I feel like I am going to explode!!! HA I am talking about her and she is kicking in the cramps- WOW!!!! what a b*@t%&.
My hubby and I are excited about our meeting with the DCF worker. OH and Last night I was watching the episode of Friends were Chandler and Monica are at the hospital and they are watching their child being born and it turned out it was twins, instead of only one, and Chandler is like, wait we ordered 1, and Monica tells him that they are their babies and they are taking them home- I laughed and then cried!!!! and pretty much cried through the end of the show!!!! I hope our time comes!!! I really do!!! Right now we are focusing on our meeting, then the classes, then we will get on a list and hopefully July we will know where we stand. In May we have a wedding in Maine, and in June we are going to Virginia beach and Bush Gardens for a week. We are going to relax and not concentrate on anything that has to do with IVF and just enjoy. Then August if we feel like it we will try again, with the biopsy.
I will check in just to see how everyone is doing!!!

flgirl: Do It. Find the money, get the loan, say to yourself 'ten-thirty years from now "Did $15-30K' make a difference in your life compared to giving birth, loving your child, creating a life and lifestyle around having a beautiful being developing in your environment with the advantages of your knowledge and care.
I've been out of the forum for a while, hopefully some of you will remember. I have a very long journey, yet ultimately successful journey. I have a very smart, kind, and handsome eleven year old boy. Though unable to get pregnant for many, many years after with the same father/husband, we tried everything, until finally with another IVF at age 44 I gave birth to a healthy beautiful baby girl - her grandparents living doll and princess. She is 18 months now and very inquisitive, tearing every drawer in the house open, terribly cute, and demanding everyone's attention. I would not trade it for any amount of money.
My continuing journey to have more children (at 45-46) is extremely slim, depressing, and expensive, but the hardships and expenses of trying were definitely were worth it.
Good luck

Nwells-good luck with your adoption meeting. Let us know how it goes. I wish the best for you!
flygirl-so sorry about your miscarriage. One thing I've learned from our fertility struggles is that there is no exact science to fertility. What works for one person, may not work for another. Actually, what works for one person one time, may not work the next. It sucks, but I truly believe part of it is luck. I wish you the best of luck!
As for me, our FET cycle didn't work. I was bummed! It's crazy it didn't hurt as bad since I have two beautiful babies that make me smile all of the time, but getting the call "I'm sorry, I have bad news for you" doesn't get any easier. After 4 times you think it would. We met with our RE today. He didn't know why our embroyos didn't defrost well. We have one left, but it's not the greatest quality, not bad, but not as good as the one they implanted. After much consideration, we decided to pay out of pocket (we've been lucky and have had good fertility coverage up to now) and do one more fresh cycle. We'll do this cycle and then if it doesn't work we may consider 1 more frozen cycle, but that would be it! It that doesn't work then God only meant for us to have our beautiful twins. If all goes well, I'll be cycling in mid to late March.
I wish you all the best!

flgirl- depends which test he is talking about... My husband and I have done them all. We did the test through Counsyl where they send you a packet and you spit into these tubes and sent them back. It is $375 per test. and they test you for over 100 genic disorders. Then we just did the Chromatin test on my husband where he sends a sperm sample out and they test it for fragmentation, he was fine, that test was I believe around $375. We are doing IVF in the late summer where we will be doing a biopsy test on our embryos. It is about $3700 for the whole process. They take the embryos and biopsy them on Day 3, they over night the samples and they are tested for chromosomes, ect to determine why they may not be growing right and they can tell you which are normal and which have defects and if the defect is in the sperm or the egg. We are hoping it will give us some more answers The plan would be to transfer all normal embryos on day 5, if any make it. For us they slow down and stop growing around then. I am not sure if that is the test he is referring to or not. Hey I have been at this for a while I have done every test possible!!! LOL!!!
As for me, we are moving along, I have had a lung infections for the last week and a half, this weather is ridiculous, they said on the weather that we would be getting a dose of spring, I laughed because it has been spring all winter. It needs to get cold soon!!!! I spoke to the women from DCF this AM and we have our home visit on March 23rd and the classes start in April. SO we are moving along!!! Lets hope some good things happen soon!!!!
Congrats to those who have had babies, life's little miracles that some take for granted but for us they are the greatest gift God can give us!!! I am waiting for my little miracle how he/she arrives!!!
