Welcome new girls!You are in a right place.If you read back our posts from before,you'll find a lot of useful info.
Some of the girls here are already PG and almost thru w/their PG,but still here to support the rest of us(isn't that nice or what?)
I did IVF for the 1st time,transfered 1 embrio,got PG(went thru the horrible 2ww),of course,got hpt and tested(for the 1st time-5 days after transfer-got negative,than 3days later got faint positive)My advise-dont test too early,you'll get for sure false result.The best-wait for HCG test,but of course, it's impossible,we all do this at some point.So, if you do,not earlier than 13 day after ov(in your case).
The symptoms...They vary alot(I basicly didn't have any and still dont)Do not rely on symptoms,we are on medicatoin that  make us feel PG...So ,don't get upset if u don't seel anything(or feel a LOT of things).Good luck!

Marina i right i never got any symptoms during the 2ww.  The first symptoms i got with pg was nausea and vomitting, but thats also cause i have hypermesis.  I still dont have sore bbs.  I even leak milk and dont have sore bbs.  Every pregancy and every women is different.  I was always told not todo a hpt test after a trigger until 10 days later or it will be a false positive it takes time to get out of your system. 

Also being this far along is good cause its almost over but now comes the uncomfortable time.  When the baby moves now it hurts,  and i pee enough for five people a day.

Well good luck to all and hope all mommies to be,mommies and babies are well, and everyone is in my preayers.

Thanks for the quick reply and the luck.  I will wait out the 9 days I have left.  Luckly, my DH works at a hosp. and will be bringing home some PG tests for me. (I'm a ff/flight medic and he's a medic/flight RN (I know Focker)ha.)

Where is everyone else on their cycles?  I need someone to vent/team up with/give and rec. support.  This is the only active support group I have been able to find. 

Bdantonio, I've seen some of your other posts and congrats!

Marina, are you pg or still trying?

brianandjena, this 2ww is the pits.  How far into the 2ww are you? I'm smack dab in the beginning and can't stand it. I know the chances aren't great on the first try, but who knows, right? I orig. wanted to wait until Jan. to get past the holidays but my RE said it was best to start ASAP because of my age.  Ha, I never thought 37 was old until I met my RE.

I cannot comprehend (sp) how some of you had to go thru this time and time again.  I am happy for everyones final success and praying for everyone else.

bdantonio, when are you do? I can't imagine what you have gone thru up to this point. Thanks for your support.

i am scheduled or my c-section 2/13/08 at 9:30am, and cant wait.  I have been pregnate 7 times and lost 5 due to m/c's anywhere from 8weeks to14weeks.  I have a daughter who will be 3 on 1/3/08.  This is our last pregnancy we are getting our tbes ties after the c-section i can not take another pregnancy.  I dont have easy ones and bedrest sucks.  Besides talking to you girls during the day i do nothing.  I have TV and no books are that entertaining for this long.  I cant wait to get put of bed and move around.

I am so sorry for everything you have gone thru and yet, at the same time so happy you are where you are now. I can't imagine being on bed rest for so long, it must be hard.  Just think...a few more month's and it's all over.  Why were you put on bed rest?  I'm sure you posted it on this board somewhere, but maybe by going over it again i can keep you company for a bit. LOL

Jmylea,
I'm not on2ww anymore(thanks God,that was a TORTURE), got PG after transfering 1 embie,but still in a "waiting room".I've had all my 3 betas and now waiting for  the 1st u/s on Mon,Dec.10.But we all go back and check on a new girls on 2ww,cheer them up.
Beth,about books.I don't know if you already read this,but Ive heard this 2 books we all should read(I just ordered them today) It's "The baby trail" and "The right fit" by Sinead Moriarty.Something for you to do while "patiently" waiting.You know,my BF just had her twins(after IVF she got PG with 6!!!!! And all 6 had heartbeat,they hoped some drop of naturalybefore 10 weeks,but no,so they had to have selective reduction),she was on bedrest since 26 week and I can imagine what u are going true...

Hey jmylea ,
I am cd 17 . so im about the middle of the 2ww.
I am also in awe at what we girls have to go through.
I got a symtom today i have am getting a little bit of sore breast(nipple) and Im sure it has nothing to do with anything but I thought I was going to throw up this morning(but i didnt) its from the heartburn I got last night after eating I was so tired( i normally dont lay down after eating) But I did and got indigestion and heartburn and acid ..ick.. so I think thats  why I didnt feel so hot this morning..
*HUG* take care

Hello, Ladies.

I am on the miserable 2ww.  I have been reading your posts and it has kept me entertained while I obsess about getting through this time!  I have a precious son by IVF who is 20 months, and this year I have had one failed IVF (something implanted but only grew for a few short days), and I am now on the first FET.  It was on 11/30, and my test is on 12/10.  (So actually only a 10-day wait?!)  I can't concentrate at work; I can't WAIT for this to be over! 

Congrats to all of you with "positive" news!!  How exciting!

Welcome Wesleysmom,
I was confused myself with 2ww.Yes,it's 10 days after the transfer,but 14 after conception-so,2ww.

Thanks for the Welcome, Marina. 

10 days is long enough to wait, isn't it?!  The thing that gets me down is that I don't feel ANYTHING.  With my successul IVF, I had a hunch before the test that I was pg.  Of course, it was a twin pregnancy (lost the twin at 10 weeks, but-of course-carried my son to term), and my levels were way up early on.  But with the last IVF and this FET, I haven't felt anything.  So it's kind of reassuring that you are 5 weeks and still don't have any symptoms!  You keep positive and don't let your thoughts get away from you.  Maybe you will sail through this pregnancy without any morning sickness or gross smells!
