deyzer- So sorry that the witch showed up :( sounds like you got a good plan, I will be praying for you that it works and you get that BFP (((HUGS)))

Toronto-I did manage with my OCD to find an article about the pituitary cancer, but also finally did a few sites that did say that some types of cancers like ovary or cervical can also give false positives. so of course now I have myself worked up since I found those, because the last time I had dysplasia it progressed pretty fast to the last stage before cancer. Now I'm worried not knowing how long I have had it, since my last pap was almost 2 yrs ago, because they put me on a 3 yr schedule for my paps. still got a positive, but if you compare it to the positives from the other day it is a bit fainter, and it is with my SMU since my FMU I could just barely see the line, so confused at the moment, ugghhh.

angel, this is strange. The lines should have progressively gotten darker by now considering the 48h doubling times. I think you need to see your doctor for some check ups!! I think for now stop googling, it can drive you crazy, but get an appointment and see what they have to say!!
Will you have another u/s??

xoxo

Tks for all ur advice regarding vitex. I'm on cd19 due to O in 4 or 5 days so ill start taking it 2moro. I'm self prescribing so it may sake a few months to get it right. I am due to see a specialist in November but I'm hoping I won't need to. Gp's in the UK don't seem interested in short LP so I'm interested in any help anyone has to offer. Time is not on our side after all :) AF arrival is always dissapointing so stay strong ladies and a tonne of baby dust to u all.

Toronto-that's pretty much what I thought, unless my urine not being as concentrated, I have no clue. this cycle is really throwing me for a loop. I go for my blood work to recheck beta on Thurs. was supposed to be Monday but they changed it. My next dr appt is Oct 9th for them to do more blood work, u/s and the dr to do a colposcopy to see for sure what is causing my abnormal pap. I am working on stayiing away from google, cuz I am driving myself nuts trying to figure out what in the world is going on. I def have preg. symptoms, frequient peeing, BB's hurt, nauseous, etc. Also today is when AF would be due as well and no sign of her, so this will make the 2nd cycle that I am late, and the last 4 mornings my BBT is up to 97.9-98.1, ugghh feel like I'm just going nuts

AF came 2 days early. My hope was pretty crushed this time around being a full year of trying. I'm stoping progesterone& OPK because I'm as regular as a 16 year old. Im going to be 45 in Nov and maybe it's just not ment to be. My husband says if it's meant to be it will happen and God will give us a baby, but he hates seeing me so disappointed every month. So I am truly given this to God and find my peace with this. I wish all the luck with all of you and stil, praying for you all.

Its heartbreaking, I really feel your pain. I hope someday soon your prayers will be answered and if its not ment to be then you find peace and you and your husband enjoy your lives together to the full and share many memorable experiences together. We makememories everyday, make them good ones

treats... so sorry to hear about your sad news. The TTC game is a rollercoaster and sometimes even a lottery. It's hard to keep going.

angel... Oh, poor you. The wait must be excruciating. Thursday seems so far away...

Hope everyone else is having a good start to the week!!

AFM: Just got back from my u/s. I got good news as two more follies popped up! I now have 3 good sized follies on each side plus 2 smaller ones, of which he thinks that they may not catch up. But still that makes six follies and if I get more than 3 fertilized, we will actually do a blastocyst transfer (for non-IVFers: they keep the embies in the dish for five days. Those embies, which survive until day 5 are expected to be the stronger guys). I do not want to get ahead of myself, but I am very hopeful that I will have at least a few to transfer and if we get blasts, that would be amazing.
My egg retrieval is on Wednesday. If we get to do a 5-day transfer, it will be on Monday (09/17) otherwise this Saturday. So next week I will be PUPO!!! (pregnant until proven otherwise).

Toronto - Yay! Day5 would be awesome.

Angel - I will have to check back in this afternoon to see what you found out. Good Luck!

Number 3 - welcome! Good luck on the BDing this week. Catch that eggie!

Treats - completely understand the frustration and anguish you are going through. My hubby feels the same (it will happen if it is meant to happen) and on some level so do I but I am also more of the "what can I do to help it happen". My favorite quote is "For Nothing is impossible with God". I hold onto that each day. No matter what the future brings I hope that you find peace.

Deyser - good plan.

Red - good luck with the rocking and rolling.

Faith - you are at the hard part, being so close to testing but just too far away. Week two is the hardest part of the wait. Try to wait until mid-late in the week. Easier said than done I know but it will keep you from hitting too many of the lows.

Chacha - maybe keep the thermometer by your bed. If you wake up to an alarm clock then put it on the alarm button so when you reach to turn it off you will feel the thermometer and remember to test. After a while it will become a part of your morning routine (at least it has for me).

P&P - I have always had a dip around where you are in my cycle when I was BFP - so hold on! Test day is approaching for you soon!

Kyrin - welcome. Glad you are in a better place now.

Hello and good luck to anyone I missed.

AFM - cd14. is due next Tuesday. No BDing for us this cycle so it will just be a learning experience for me (wonder how many sxs I will notice - ). I was able to make some doc appts for DH last week and this week so he is addressing his health issues. In the meantime, I am giving him lots of TLC which is good for him and me.
[BTW: Not that you probably noticed, but I am a admitted emoticon freak! )
