No,  I didn't pay today,  today and my first beta were included in the package, but after that we're back to paying.  I did check with the nurse today.  She basically said that if I'm pg then they want more bloodwork Thursday, then Monday, then in two weeks an u/s then they release me to the ob/gyn.  If I'm paying out of pocket, tho, I'll do the bloodwork up here and at least save the drive to tampa.  One more week to wait.  I'm sorry you have to wait another week to find out your next step, but remember, we're all here for you.

Got my results.  The progesterone level is just right.  Now it's just sit and be patient time.  I swear my butt gets sorer every day.  I'm sitting here with a heat pack, thinking about taking some tylenol.  We went to friends house last night for dinner and to play cards.  I took the tin that I keep my supplies in with us.  Luckily these friends know about it so when the time came we just excused ourselves for a few minutes.  If we get a BFP, I'm going to have to find someone else to do my shots for two nights in March as dh will be out of town.  I'm not even worrying about it until after next Monday tho.

Vicki- I am glad to hear everything is as it should be.  I am sorry to hear about your butt.  Mine was a bit sore at first, but then was fine.  I only had one shot that hurt really bad, but I think my mom hit a bad spot ( really bad! ) Lets hope you will need to worry about finding someone to do the shots for you and you get that BFP! Talk to you soon.

Hi Lyly,

I've been feeling kind of crappy for the past couple days.  I've been really really moody and trying not to let it show.  Have to keep up appearances for the patients.  I'm not sleeping well and can't wait til Monday.  The way the timing works I have enough progesterone for my shot Monday night before I run out.  So if its positive, I'll have to order more immediately so I'll have some for Tuesday.  Luckily my pharmacy ships overnight for free.

Any how,  it will probably be Monday before I check back in,  I'll let you know how it goes.  When do you see your RE about the FET?

Debbie- I am doing fine.  Getting ready to bring dd to her grandparents for a few days.  She has been really clingy lately.  I am not really sure why, but I hope she doesn't give them a hard time.  She doesn't want to go for 2 nights but it is not a quick drive and I hate taking her for just one night.  I feel like by the time I get back the day is over and then I have to turn around and go get her again.  So how are you feeling?  Are your kids off from school this week?  I guess entertaining them for the week will help you 2ww go a bit quicker.  At least you may be too busy to think about it.  I hope all is well with you and I will definitely let you know how the consult goes on Tuesday.

Vicki- Good luck tomorrow and lots and lots of baby dust to you!!!!!!!!!!

lyly-my kods have school this week.  They are only off tomorrow.  My dh is staying home with them.  I hope this week goes quickly.  I feel myself thinking about it all the time.  I get so caught up in the numbers and think what a small percentage of people get bfp.  I guess I am just thinking negative so I do not feel so let down.  Good luck Tues.  Talk to you then

Hi ladies,  just got the call.  BFN :-(  DH says I can go home if I want.  We have a new pt in the office right now, but as soon as he's processed, I think I'll take off.  Well it looks like its time to move on to adoption.  Lyly,  I'll check on  you tomorrow to see how your RE appt goes.  Good Luck girl, my prayers are with you.

Hi girls- How is everyone doing?  Things went well with the consult today.  So now I am waiting for my March period to come for an April FET.  Hopefully my cycle will coincide with the opening of the clinic, but if not he will put me on birth control pill to manipulate my cycle.  We are going to transfer all 3 frozen embies this time (scary and exciting).  He said he normally wouldn't recommend transfering more than 2 but since we only have 3 left it would probably be a good idea.  If we only transfer 2 and it doesn't work, he said chances with a single embryo transfer were low.  That being the case he would not be against putting all three in.  He said chances of triplets is not high but to be aware that it is a possibility.  I would be exstatic with one but definitely not unhappy with twins.  Triplets is definitely scary, but since we put in 2 fresh and they didn't take I feel that is the chance we have to take.

Hey Vicki - I haven't been on here for a lot time, my login wasn't working so I finally created a new one. Sorry to hear about your BFN. I have been thru the adoption process with my 6 yr. old DS. It is not as scarey or bad as most people make it out to be. We adopted from Guatemala and it was a great experience. I wish you the best of luck and if you have any questions about adoption, just ask.
Lyly, Sorry to hear about your BFN, but how exciting that you can do a FET. I am sending baby dust your way. I got a BFP on Monday, my beta was 1633.
