Thanks, Caryn.  I hope that the cramps are for the same reason as you.

Sorry, you didn't have an u/s today, but it's good that your OHSS is much better. I understand what the RE said... But, I made them do one at 5wks due to my spotting, I was so nervous and they agreed (I guess it's more money for them at the end)! Oct. 23 is just around the corner ha, I'm sure you'll be counting days till then.

Yay, Lori! I'm so happy for you, congratulations. I hope your beta is nice and high tomorrow. I know what you mean about being causiously optimistic, but try to take it one day at a time and enjoy it.

I will keep on testing to see, I guess someone said that once you start... I actually have a CBE digital from last year, but I think it expired 2 months ago so rather than just throwing it away, I'll go ahead and use it today, we'll see.

Oh, Jess, you're so sweet choosing the "perfect" words :)

Sorry you're not feeling too well, I hope you'll feel better so soon. An hour is NOTHING compared to all the research I've done online about IVF, hpt's, etc. hee hee.  When is your beta? Are you going to test before?

Jenna~ Always great to see you! Good luck on your IUI this round.

Karen~ CONGRATS on your pg! Sending doubling vibes your way! So we're shooting for 114? Will they do a third?

Lori~ Great news on your +HPT! Can't wait to see what your beta is tomorrow. I didn't get a dark line until the day OF my beta.

Mona~ I agree with the others. I think you aren't out yet. I never got a +HPT with my DS but I just KNEW I was pg.

RyanAnn~ Awesome insurance! Good luck with your next cycle. They did the same to me....started me off high and worked me to lower, but they didn't start the menopur right away. The embryologist said that they just went back to doing it that way and the number of pregnancies went through the roof!

Caryn~ Bummer that you didn't get your u/s. I was just talking about this to my mom yesterday. I asked the question, "If they find out something they can do nothing about, is it worth knowing?" I had mixed feelings. I always want to be in-the-know.

Jess~ Sorry you're feeling so bad! Maybe you can think of it as...your immune system is down so anything can sneak by...even a pregnancy. Don't a bunch of people get pg while on antibiotics? Maybe that's why!

Amber~ Best of luck with your new donor!!

AFM~ Just tired. Waiting on beta #3 on Friday.
