Kari,

How are you doing today? I hope that your headache is gone. I'm sorry to hear that the bleeding has continued, but I do think that your body is working really hard to get rid of the hcg so that it will be back to zero. I'm glad you were able to move your bloodwork up, so that hopefully you'll have the reassurance that it's at zero before the weekend. You seem to be keeping your spirits up, please hang in there.

Thinking of you,
Kelley

Kari, I saw your last post and I'm sorry to hear about the bleeding, backache and headache. It seems like you're really getting slammed. But as you said, I'm hoping this is clearing out your system and things will be down to zero by your appointment on Friday. I'm glad you seem to feel positive mentally because that's the hardest acheivment. Keep up the positive vibes. I'll be thinking of you until Friday and I'll be hoping for good news. - April

Kari,

I haven't had a chance to tell you how sorry I am for everything you have had to go through, you and DH. Honestly, while I was away from the boards last week, you kept popping into my mind. I was hoping your betas continued to rise, and my heart truly ached to find out this was not the case. I'm so sorry I wasn't around to offer you my support. I think it is so amazing how good your Dr. has been treating you, giving you his personal attention, which you so deserve. I'm glad you and DH are willing to try a 3rd time, and I'm sure the Dr. is going to keep an extra watchful eye over you this time. 3rd time's a charm, right ;) If I haven't mentioned, I just want to let you know how amazing I think you are, and without knowing it, you are giving me strength as well. Tears are running down my face as I type this, and I know as you've mentioned, that you get strength from our support as well. (((Huge Hugs)))

Kari, I have been thinking of you too. It's so unfair all that you have had to endure & that you are still waiting for your baby. But you have handled it all with such grace & determination & I know it is going to pay off for you soon. Lots of love & hugs to you.

Hi Kari, I am thinking of you and hope things are getting a bit easier for you. I am sorry you aren't feeling well but I think its your body just getting all cleaned out for that nice fat BFP next cycle. Hang in there honey you are in my thoughts and prayers :angel:AimeeM

Kari, I am sorry you have to deal with all this, I know, its like IF isnt hard enough to deal with.... But one thing is true for all of us here on this board, we all have hope, or else we will all move to the knitting boards, if there are any... My dear, I know how hard the struggle we have to deal with is, counting the days till AF shows up or to go away so we can start again or playing the numbers game...it all stinks, and making babies isnt supposed to be like this. But one thing is for sure, you got already a plan for a new IVF set for you and I feel that it will be IT. I have the feeling that there is a master plan for all of us, and maybe I am wasting time fighting my IF battle here and a child is waiting for me to rescue, or give him/her a better life, and am sure that I would love that child just as much as my biological one. I come from a fairly poor country, and I know how many children in need are there, unfortunatelly my country stopped international adoptions for now, but as soon as they open them back, and I still have no baby here I will be the first one on the list. But enough about me, I just want to let you know that we are here for you, we feel your pain and it will happen for you my dear. Keep the faith and the hope. We will all be parents :)
Love,
Mady

Mapia, my friend till the end... thank you for starting a new thread. I'm so lucky to have you and your support in my life. I could never tell you that enough. :angel:

Kelley, I am hanging in there, and so far today no headaches or backache! WooHoo! I'm just getting ready to go to my volunteer job and so I'm looking forward to that.

April, thx for the positive vibes. Sending them right back your way cause I know things are really getting geared up for your cycle right now. Fingers crossed for you friend.

Hi Char! Thx for the encouragement, and I hope I will have good news to share by the weekend. I'm a bit afraid to get my hopes up, but at the same time I can't help it cause I want to hear it's back to zero so badly!

Christin, your post really touched my heart. Your caring attitude is one of the many reasons you will be such a great mom one day soon. I know things are tough for you right now and I hope I'll be able to lend support to you when it's needed most. And if you proceed with this IVF, there's a chance we could be a week or maybe two at the very most away from each other. It's definitely my goal to have E/R the last week of April and I'd love so much for us to be cycling close together. BFP's all around, right?

Holly, you've managed to make me feel pretty good about a very crappy situation. Thx for sharing the love my friend.

Aimee, thank you soooooooo much for sticking around and spreading those positive pregnancy vibes. You are an amazing woman yourself and you've got two lucky kiddos to soon call you mommy.

Mady, I feel like we are on a similar wavelength. I know what you mean about wondering if adopting a child in meant to be for you. But while we are still in the moment of TTC on our own, it is true that there still is hope. I know there is hope for all of us who haven't yet gotten that sticky BFP. Thx for your kind words and please keep me posted on you and your journey. (((hugs)))

Oh Kari, you are so strong. Thanks for thinking of me too, I am ok here, in my 2ww. I did a no no :nono:this month, I had some leftover follistim in the fridge since our IVF, you know when that was, and we said lets just give it a try. My RE doesnt do stimulated cycles without IUI , and I know that my DH's dream is to conceive in our bedroom, so he gave me the shots, 3 days in a row, 50 cc, so its very small dosage (RE was giving me 125 at a time), I didnt want to get in some trouble and go to the emergency room or something, and we are now waiting for a miracle. Maybe was just enough to start things a little. I OPKd and was right on time as normal.
I'll keep you posted on how it went.
You take care my friend,
Mady

Kari,

You are an amazing person and I am so glad that you are feeling better and ready to get started again. I know I for one will be following your progress and I (along with all the other wonderful ladies here) will be sending all our hopes and sticky baby dust to you and DH. You have been on a tremendous rollercoaster this past cycle and I am soooo hoping that you will be joyfully rewarded for your determination and persistence. You will make an incredible mommy someday. We are all mommies in the making. It is so horribly unfair that we can't (as Mady said be able to make our babies in the bedroom) What most people can achieve with a cheap bottle of wine, we have to fight and constantly be tested (pun intended). We all will become victorious, I just know it. We have the best support network in the world.

Lots of luck to you Kari. :angel::angel:

;)Kari, I am glad your headache and backache are gone! It seems to tug on your whole body when your hurting after bad news. Just knowing I was cramping after a loss kinda made me more emotional when the pain got worse. Like an ugly reminder. I hope as those all go it will help you heal and get ready for your next try. I was happy to read that your already planning your next cycle.
Nothing new on my end still waiting. We have been through lots of talks trying to make the costs be a little less of a blow and have decided if we stick to our current plan..... we will be ready timing and finacially...... to start in July. Lol I want to yell that! I am excited to finally have a definate plan. We thought we would be about to try last November but, "life" happened and we have not been able to yet.
I want to thank you for allowing me to follow your cycle! Follow your cycle as well as some others here I feel like I have a better idea of what to be ready for. You truely shine on the supportive side and courage and strength of actually dealing with the ups and downs of all of this.
I think our day will be here soon! I cant wait till the day that we all can be referred to as Mommy!!

Take care of you!

Mady, I am so happy u confessed your protocol this cycle!!! OMG, I seriously look at all of these xtra meds I have (follistim, repronex, clomid, u name it!) and I just know if I ever take a month "off" it'll really only be a month off of monitoring! ;) Bad, yes, but we are not alone and at least we have enough experience to know what is pushing and conservative as far as dosage goes. Well I am super anxious to follow your 2WW so keep me updated!!!

Hi Hopeful, you have a great way with words my friend! That was a very encouraging post. Yes it is true we are tested to our limits when most people can achieve pregnancy with a bottle of cheap wine! And cheers to victory... Our victories, my friend... They are coming!

Mapia, it is scary but true... I've been on the board posting for a full year now... It's hard to believe we still aren't holding our little miracles (or even pregnant with them for goodness sake!). I am so glad we found each other thru this journey... It is a true blessing in spite of all the IF pain.

Oh Mrsctw thank u so much for sharing your update. I think of you so much and I'm glad that you still plan on moving forward with IVF come summer! Wouldn't it just be wonderful if you ended up with two little babies super clse in age after all is said and done?!!! I really do think we will be mommies soon... We all deseve it and I'm not going anywhere until all our dreams have come true!

Kari,

I hope that you are feeling well today. It's almost Friday - I'm really hoping that your numbers are back to zero tomorrow. They will call you with the results tomorrow, right?

Everyone here is right - you are such an amazing person and friend. With all that you're dealing with right now, you are so supportive still of everyone else. You are going to be an even more amazing mother.

Love,

Kari, I know what you mean. I held up for 2 months looking at those meds, you know that after my failed FET my hormones went all over the place, I had some anxiety and all those bad side effects and I said I will stay clean for any of this hormones for 6 months. I guess I forgot :D
Well, good luck my dear for tomorrow, I hope your numbers come down to 0 and you can get started again.
Love,

Hi Kari,

Thinking of you & hoping you get the news you are looking for tomorrow. I know how anxious you are to start again & I hope that can happen for you. You definitely deserve to have something go you your way for a change. Sending you more hugs (you can never have enough, right?).

03-06-2008, 05:43 PM
Mapia, it really is sad we don't have our babies. But think about it, when they arrive there will be more tears from happiness and relief than we could probably even imagine. I'm so excited for us both to see that day. How are you today?

Char, I am doing great today. Hit the gym for the first time since I got sick over the weekend and it was a great workout. I hit the grocery after and bought some fresh veggies to make stir fry for dinner!!! So all I need is a nice low beta result tomorrow to keep my positive attitude going ;)

Amy, you are amazing yourself friend. You've got a little newborn and yet here you are still offering us all of your support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Kelley, yes I will get the call tomorrow with the results. My appt is at 8:30MST and then they usually get back to me within 3 hours or so. The fate of my weekend is riding on this call... it better be good news. ;) And BTW, I am so thrilled you got to see both heartbeats! I wanted to wish you congrats but noticed your thread was closed. I'm so happy for you hun.

Mady, I admire you for holding out even two months!!! :D Seriously I think you took a good conservative approach to it, and I've got everything crossed that you will be announcing a BFP soon, and what a great story it'll be! When do you test?

Holly, I am a hug hound, so no I can never get enough! Seriously when I have a glass of wine too much I am like the hugging bandit. Even after my E/R they told me I was hugging everyone in the room! :D Let's hope there will be happy hugs tomorrow when they tell me I can start BCP and get this ball rolling again!

Mapia74
03-06-2008, 05:59 PM
Hahaha Kari I was laughing at how you said you hug everyone when you drink.I just got a picture of that in my head and laughed.Well you are right when our babies arrive I am sure there will be so many tears of joy.I cant wait to hear about that day either my friend.BTW Kathy told me to send you her love and said to hang in there she is praying for you.:)I am doing ok thanks for asking.I will be praying your results are at 0 tomorrow cant wait to hear.Well have a nice afternoon and glad you got a workout in today.Take care my friend.

Kari I am glad that you hit the gym again, there is nothing better than a good woorkout to get rid of stress. I have not been to the gym for ages and I do not think I will be going for a while:D. Your veggie stirfry sounds awesome I hope you enjoyed it:D. I absolutley love stirfried veggies, I had some on Tuesday evening.

I am still praying that your numbers are down to 0 today so you can start your BCP and get on the road to a sticky BFP:D.

I hope you managed to get some sleep in the end. Thinking of you.

LOL.
Either way, I htink you're doing GREAT, and I'm going to follow your example and get myself into shape. It really sounds like it got you into good positive thinkign and clear minded!!

Thanks Kel... no news yet and I'm going absolutely crazy! I was just saying in a post to Mapia that I'm starting to freak myself out cause it seems they are taking longer than normal to call. But I expect my phone will ring any minute. Maybe I should just head to the gym with my phone and that way if they call with bad news and I'm working out I'll prob be less likely to get upset. So yes... I think that is what I'm going to do. But don't worry... I can post from my phone so I won't leave you guys hanging ;)

I know it's tough, but no negative thoughts! Have fun at the gym - at least you'll be able to clear your mind a little bit if you get out, and surely they'll have called by the time you're done. I'm really hoping for a big zero!!!

Love,

03-07-2008, 02:17 PM
Of course so as I am walkng up the pathway to my gym where they are jackhammering doing construction my phone rings! I run in the front and the desk lady is trying to make me stop as I run past her to seek quiet... Pretty funny actually. So as I type from the treadmill I have good news. HCG went down to 3.1. So they still want me to come back Tues to confirm it goes to zero (which I think is absurd), but I do know that 3.1 is good news. I told her that I want my calendar when I come in on Tuesday so at least I have that to look forward to! Thx for the support girls.... I'm almost there!

douglasap8
03-07-2008, 02:37 PM
Kari, I'm sorry it wasn't zero, but you seem pretty pleased with 3.1. I'm glad it went down so far since earlier in the week. It's got to be zero by next Tuesday! I'm glad you laid down the law and told them to have a calendar ready for you when you come. I'm very excited because you should be starting those BCPs next week! Have a great workout and wonderful weekend! - April

PrincessSweetNS
03-07-2008, 02:53 PM
Yay Kari!! Almost there!!!! 3.1 is very, very, very close. You pound the machines at the gym and get the rest to zero! I know it'll be there by Tuesday!! I'm praying for you and I knwo next cycle will be SO much better! I'm glad you were so assertive and told them that you want to be ready to go the next time you go in. That's the girl!!! :D:D:D Hahaha, now you're saying "I want the calendar ready by the time I come in." in just five years you'll be saying to your five year old (or so----I'm not good at math, but I'm trying to reflect you'll be pg REALLY soon) "I would like those crayons picked up when I come back into the living room!" :D You'll get there, and we're here every step of the way!

You'll be back in the game in no time!

Kari, that is great to be so far down and so close to zero. I know those days waiting are no fun but, slowly you are getting where you need them to be! I remember a couple times thinking they would NEVER get there.... I think its looking good this time!!!
I too just got back from the gym. I feel like it was almost a wasted trip....AF came a few days early and I just couldn't get into the work out like I needed to today. Think I might take tomorrow off and get back in Sunday and make up for today and tomorrow. ;) I have a weight I want to get to but, it seems like I am not losing but, my clothes are getting pretty loose so something is working!!! YAY I guess since I know I am doing it for me and my little one.... I am just so much more motivated!!! I am rooting all of us on, on our "getting healthy for us and baby" plans!!!! Go us go!!! lol

Take care!!!!

Thank you so much... to all of you, for your nice, kind words of encouragement. Princess, Kelley, Char, Mariella, April, Mapia, Aimee, Mrsctw, Holly I have been reading your posts and appreciate the support. I was hoping to find more time yesterday to be on line, but I had lots of work to do for DH so it was a busy day!

Well the appointment went well this morning. My HCG is finally negative. WooHoo!!! And I got my calendar!!!!! :blob_fire So the most interesting part is they are gonna get me on provera right away to make sure I have a period (since I've had trouble with that in the past). I will start BCP on my 3rd day after AF, then lupron on 4/14 and will start stims on 4/25. E/R and E/T is tentatively set for 5/8 and 5/11. So all in all things are not too far off. Time should go even faster for me cause I booked a trip back to NY and MD at the end of March, and there is a slight chance DH and I might go to Maui for a week in early April for his B-Day. And my parents are driving into town today so I'll be busy with them here too!

Hopefully this is my final IVF. I plan for it to be ;) I know there are a few of you ahead of me and well into the process, and I hope you all lead the way with a big string of BFP's! Baby dust to everyone!!!

WOOO HOOO! You got down to the zero AND you got your calendar! Awesome news, Kari! Sounds like you've got a lot of fun to look foward to over the next couple months. And your tentative ER date is my birthday. The travelling will definately help make things go my quickly. I hope you make it to Maui so I can live vicariously through you. I went last year and loved it...and hope to go back someday.

Congrats on all the good news Kari! - April

I have been reading your posts and some others as time permits, and very impressed with your courage and attitude. Glad you are on track for the next (& final, hopefully) IVF cycle.

I will also be in Hawaii in early April. DH & I are taking our babymoon to the big island. I think you totally deserve some vacation time!

Wonderful Kari! I'm glad you are getting started right away. Enjoy your East Coast trip. I'm off for two weeks starting next week, it will also be during my 2WW and I want to take a day trip, I can probably only afford one so I am trying to decide between NYC and Washington which I love. Hopefully the next time you go to visit your friend, you will be dragging a carrier, stroller, and little one on the plane!

Kari, I'm so happy that things went well for you today!! You deserve some good news! I know how badly you wanted to get your calendar, & you are right that those dates certainly are not that far off. Spring is almost here, & with all your travelling plans, time is simply going to fly by. :D I can't wait to support you through this next cycle & watch you get the sticky bfp you so deserve. Well done my friend for hanging in there & maintaining your wonderful attitude!

Love,

Holly

Kari whooooohoooooo:bouncing::blob_fire:bounc ing::blob_fire I am so glad that you number are down to 0 and that you have a new calender. Your BFP will be here before you know it. Your cycle will also be here before you know and then we can cheer you along:D.

I bam so glad that your parents are visiting so that they can keep you busy and then you have your trip to visit your friend and then whereever else you go. By the time you have finished jet setting you will be ready for your stims:D.

I hope you have a wonderful day

Love

YAY!!!!!!!!! I am so happy that hcg came back as negative! And that you've got your calendar and will be able to get underway again very soon. And it does sound like you have a lot of fun stuff to keep you busy too! I hope that you do make that trip to Maui - that would be so nice!!!

We will all be here with you through this next (and final!! because you are going to have a very sticky BFP!!!) cycle!!!!!

Love,
Kelley

Hi Everyone! I'm so glad I've found you guys... I really can't say it enough. It's so cool that I have friends who truly share in the excitement of my good news. Here's hoping it's really good news at the conclusion of this cycle... I am going to accept nothing other than a STICKY BFP!!! ;)

I'm doing well. Just had my second provera pill today. I'm super busy with my parents in town so that's why I'm not on the board nearly as much as normal this week. Please know that I'm thinking of all of you while I'm away. Believe me, fertility is still the number one thing on my mind and the journey now includes all of you. :angel: Babydust to all***************

Kari,

I hope you're having a great time with your parents! Don't worry about not being on the boards as much, we definately know that you're thinking of all of us! And just know that we're all thinking of you too! There you go... that's the right attitude... we are not going to accept ANYTHING but a big, sticky, BFP this cycle!!!

I hope you're having a great week!

Love,
Kelley

I love that!
I'm so glad to hear that the HCG went down to 0.
I've been lost without an internet commection at home and I'm catching up on the boards.

Kari I know you'll be getting a BFP real soon, your positive outlook will only help you obtain your dream sweetie pie in your loving arms.

Have a great time in Maui. Wish I was going too.

Hi Kari,
I'm so relieved to hear that things are looking up for you my friend. That is wonderful news that you got your zero at last, and your calendar is all set for your sticky bfp cycle! It really will fly by until May with everything you have planned. You both so deserve a trip away, and Maui sounds awesome! Hope you have a great time with your parents. Love you loads, have fun!

MAUI!!!!!! That sounds AMAZING!!! You know, maybe while you're away or as soon as you come back you'll get that sticky BFP!!! :D I knwo it's cliché to say that "go away for a vacation, you'll get pregnant then" but then, if it's typical, it has to be typical for a reason, right? I'm just praying you get your sticky BFP this time around at the end of your cycle. Have LOTS of fun and know that we're thinking about you!!!!! I'll be with you in spirit!

Hi Kari.

Just wanted to stop by to say hi and that i am so happy your numbers went down to zero and you are already making progress towards the BFP. Every day is a step closer and now that you have a calendar it really helps to see exactly when you'll be posting that BFP. Enjoy your parents and travels - it will be a lot more complicated next year to bring a baby to Maui ;)

Hi Kari,

Thinking of you & hoping you are doing well. Even though you are in between cycles, every day still brings you a day closer to that beautiful bfp.

Hi guys!* All is going good here.* Just plugging along with the provera.... 6 down and 4 pills to go.* I imagine I'll get a visit from AF by next Friday and that would make me very very happy.* I did a little math and if AF cooperates I'll start lupron exactly four weeks from today and stims 5 weeks from Fri.* Kinda seems far away, but I take off for MD and NY next Thursday and hopefully DH will go forward with a birthday escape to Maui that second week of April!* And yes, CBB, I will remind him how difficult it would be to go next year considering we'd have a newborn in tow! :D* Just really hoping time flies.* It's hard with IVF cause I've been doing it for almost a year now and you really can only get about four 2WW's a year... so even though the odds are greater, it's more difficult to wait between all the failed attempts.* :rolleyes: Well hopefully this will be my final wait!

Thanks again for all the support ladies. I'll prob ask the thread to be closed due to length but I plan on being around a little bit more this week now that my parents have just left after their nice visit. Good luck to all of you in the 2WW or getting close to your 2WW's! Love you all!

Hi Kari,

I'm glad to hear that all is well. I hope that you had a great time with your parents! And your travels to Maryland and NY will definately keep you busy! I hope too that you make it to Maui - What a great trip that would be!!!! And a few vacations before this cycle will definately have your body ready for your sticky BFP.

I hope that your afternoon is going well!!!

Love,
Kelley

Kari, your thread is still open so I'm going to hop in and say hi! You sound like you're really doing well. I'm so glad you've got some dates out there to concentrate on. It sure makes things easier. Have a great trip next week! - April
