hi ladies :) well i had my er at 8am, and when i woke up i didnt feel too bad, a few cramops, but ive had worse!!! re told dh that everything looked good, but im so diasappointed in my clinic, i was suppose to get a call today to let me know how many follicles were retrieved and its 7:30 pm and no response, i called around5pm and i got the answering service.. im so emotional that im nervous something is wrong, maybe the follicles were empty, or the eggs were of poor quality.. im SOO SOOO nervous, i hope i hear from them first thing tomorrow morning or i will go crazy!! well im almost at CRAZY :D :D :D

well about 15 minutes after i wrote the my doctor called me.. i left a msg with the answering service and he actually called me back :) he states he was at the hospital today, and the nurse shoulda told me my report before i left, so i guess it was just a misunderstanding.. anyhoo, they retrieved 17 eggs.. is that an ok number> ive heard of women with much more?? but i guess it only takes one good egg... now i gotta wait for the fertilization report at work tomorrow.. see how frantic i am and i havent even made it to the transfer yet!! ahhhh :)

Asprousey --
That sounds good to me! :D Keep us up to date on what you hear -- I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers! Good luck, sweetie -- this is gonna be your month!

Asprousey--
Oh, I am SO glad that you heard!:D:D :D :D :D 17 eggs!:D :D :D :D :D That's wonderful! And tomorrow, even better news is coming!
adoette

well i just got the call that outta the 17 eggs 10 were mature and icisi'd and all 10 of those fertilized!! so now i gotta pray that they start dividing and stay alive :)

Keep the excellent news coming!!! Way to go!!!!!! :blob_fire :blob_fire

ASPROUSEY05:
you are in a roll. I got 16 eggs, 4 didn't fertilized, and 12 fertilized with ICSI. I went to day 5 for ET. They only put two in and they were over 100 cells. The others we tried to freeze them, but they didn't get to blast so none made it.

So out of the 16 only the two they put inside survived... actually not sure if two, but at least one did. I will find out on 9/8. The Dr "think" they could be twins due to high HCG, but it is not a sure thing.

Asprousey, what a great report! :D Keep the good news coming!!

Grow, grow, grow...

Holly~

asprousey - they only retrieved 8 eggs for my ER, 6 of which fertilized and i'm now 7 weeks pg w/twins! So...to me, 10 fertilized sounds great!!! :bouncing:

ahh 2:15pm on friday, waiting for phone call to see how my embies are dividing and what time to go in tomorrow for tranfer, GOING NUTS!!! im hopin maybe they are just waiting to later in the day, bc they should divide more the more time that goes by!! ahhh... sorry ladies im soooo soooo impatient, and bad thoughts start to enter my mind... like what if they dont want to tell me that they arent making any progress, please pray for me and me and dh's embabies, i hope they are ok!!! thanks so much for your support.. can u imagine how i will be the next 2 weeks if i make it to the transfer!!!!

ASPROUSEY05

I am just like you, I was so desperate! and you should had seen me in my 2ww! I was a nervous wrack, I thought i was going steer crazy. I was: "what if this, what if that, what is the other"... I think I drove DH nuts!

I was so desperate that when the Dr called me on "day 3", It was 8:00 am and I was getting ready to go to the clinic (that was supposed to be my transfer day), the Dr said that my embies were too good that they had decided to wait till day 5! ... I had mixed feelings! I wanted my embies inside me NOW!... not on 5 day transfer, but then I relaxed and thought that was actually a better news, that mean my Beanie Embies were strong (not that 3 day transfer is not good, they also take, but you know what i mean).

So, ok, should I tell you to relax? I know everyone told me that, but didn't. Just take a day at a time. We are here pulling for you and your beanies"

I am just very anxious, and those are my embabies, i wanna know how they are doing :):):)

I AM ANXIOUS FOR YOU ASPROUSEY I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR LET US KNOW!!:bouncing: :bouncing: :bouncing: :bouncing:

finally, lol!! 4pm the embyologist called and stated that all of them divided, and they are all between 2-4 cells which she says is normal for now... and that they are where they should be! so far all have made it! tranfer 11:30am tomorrow!!

Good Luck tomorrow. Make sure you get plenty of rest for 2 days.
Rent lots of movies :angel:

Good luck tomorrow Asprousey!! How many embryos are you going to transfer? I sending you lots of sticky baby dust and praying you get fabulous implantation and a BFP in 2 weeks!;)

we decided on 2, due to my age (24 and dh 28) my re is scared to put back more bc he thinks that i am young so my chances for implantation are higher, but we discussed if the embryos are not the "best" quality we may consider 3 but if they keep dividing over nite then def only 2... im so excited for the transfer bc atleast those embabies will be inside me and not sitting in a lab!!! my belly is a much nicer home :) i went to blockbuster and got like 6 movies to watch tomorrow, BED REST :( i'll do anything they tell me too, stand on my head, etc.. hehe.. oh yea and on another subject i got a phone call from my older brother today him and his gf found out today they were having a girl (she already has 2 girls from a previous marriage) then she met my brother like 6 mos ago (now she is like 4 or 5 mos preggo- she got pregnant right away) and im happy for him but he really wanted a boy, and i laughed at him as a joke like haha ur havin a girl, and it turned into a big fight...tomorrow is a big day for me and he had the nerve to tell me he is sick of my attitude, and asked me how im enjoying those hormones!!! what a jerk, he is my older brother and he has never once in his life been there for me, and he is so happy he got this gf pregnant before me and my husband conceived, bc he had always been jealous of me for some reason (no im not going crazy, im serious!!) and i try so hard to be nice about the whole situation (thank goodness they live in another state) and i pretend it doesnt bother me bc my mom would be hurt, and to top it all off, me and dh wedding anniversary is oct 1, and my brother is marrying this girl the same weekend 9/29~~~ ahhhhh.. im sorry needed to vent, i was just really hurt by that conversation we just had... anyway thank u all so much for ur support!!! it will make my day a lot easier tomorrow knowing i have all these wonderful women praying for me and my embabies!!!!

Asprousey,
I'm sorry about the conversation you had with your brother -- don't let him get to you. Right now you need to focus on making your body the most inviting place it can be for those embabies!!! I am REALLY excited for you! Sounds like your RE thinks your chances on this are excellent. ;) I know everything will go smoothly tomorrow. Rest, take care of yourself, good luck with the transfer, and grow embies, GROW!!! I will be out of town for the weekend starting tomorrow -- but I can't wait to hear all about it when I return. As always, you will be in my thoughts and prayers ... :angel:

Wow, I can't believe the day has finally arrived Asprousey!
I'll be thinking of you and praying for you all day. Let your DH pamper you--it'll be good practice for later!
I'm so sorry that your brother had to fuss at you. This process doesn't always bring out the best in everyone...
But that won't mean much when your dreams come true!
:angel: Sticky sticky sticky baby dust!:angel:

:wave: Hi Asprousey,
Just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you and praying for you and your embabies today!!! Take it easy all day (hope you got all comedies or something), and think positive thoughts. Sending you lots 'o baby dust!!

well, we ended up putting 3 back.. due to my age my re thought all should be at 8 cells grade 5.. and there were a few 8 cell but only one grade 5.. he wanted to maximize our chance of gettign pregnant this time around and felt 3 was a safe number, obviously we are taking a risk with multiples tho, so i am a little nervous.. i am more anxious to be "pregnant" tho :) so i was willing to take that risk !! anyway, dh just went out to get us some pizza, im gonna go lay back down, jsut wanted to see how every1 else was doign!!!

Fingers crossed for you!! I know you've been on this board a while now (longer than me). It's YOUR turn!

Take it easy.

~Angie

Best of luck to you and those little embabies!!! I hope your wait goes by speedy fast and you get your BFP!!!! Enjoy your rest and relaxation;)
