AGP in the HOUSE!

[sasparilla]

Hi ladies.. Here's a new thread for us to fill up!

I go to RE's in a few minutes, so I'll post when I get back!
C'mon follies, grow, Grow, GRow, GROw, GROW!

Kele1129-  Good luck today.  I can't wait to hear the results.  I bet you have great looking embrys.


magda_s-  You are right I feel like they don't understand what we go through and how difficult this whole thing is.  I feel so stressed out today because of this.  I left a message early this morning and still no call back. This is so frustrating!!!!

Magda - That happened to me with my last cycle. I went in for pregnancy test at 7:30AM, THEY DIDN'T CALL ME BACK UNTIL AFTER 4PM!! She was like "I am so sorry, we forgot to call earlier, it's negative, please call back tomorrow to schedule a follow up appointment with your RE."Talk about being pissed off!!!

Kele - Good luck on your transfer today. I am praying that all goes well...

Helen - How are you doing? I don't think we had an update from you in a while...

Sally -  How are you doing? When is your next appointment?

rghkah - My biggest fear is that my "Snow Angels" won't survive the thaw...I am praying that all goes well.

To anyone I missed...any new updates?

oh magda, what is a terrible story!  That actually happened--she "forgot" to call?  I am so sorry for you.  That RN needs a lesson in sensitivity big time.  Ouch.  

What ever happened to the potential job for DH?

Kele, I started out with a ridiculous number of follies the first two times and ended up with far fewer in the end but so long as the "fewer" are enough to pick some good ones from and maybe even freeze a few, there's really nothing to worry about.  It's a tough enough ride as it is.  Try to take things like htis in stride to hold on to your sanity!

rghkah38, I know how you feel.  It is unbearably frustrating when they don't seem to realise that we're like people starving and waiting for them to throw us a crumb.  My last IVF try I went to do my Beta and the nurse said she'd call me by 4pm.  She then added that if it was positive, they would have to do it a second time to be sure so then it might be later.  I already knew it wasn't a BFP so I laughed and said not to worry and that I'd be expecting her call at 4pm.  Well, when she still hadn't called at 4:15 I started fighting off these thoughts that started creeping in that maybe, just maybe I was wrong.  at 4:30 it was getting much harder to fight them off and at 4:45 I finally broke down and rang her because I couldn't bear the pressure of the joy that wanted to burst out of me.
She had forgotten to call.
I ripped her to shreds on the phone and wanted to go in there that evening to rip the pieces up further but DH calmed me down.
It is hideously frustrating though that people in this profession can't understand how sensitive it is for us and how very much it all means.

Kele,
I am so sorry you are disappointed with the # of follies.  What matters most though is that you have 3 good ones tomorrow.  Best of luck with your transfer.  
I am wishing you a few sticky embies.
You are almost in 2ww!!!!

kele,
Best of luck tomorrow.  It's crazy, this whole IVF thing.  You just never know what is around the next corner.  So, we will continue pulling for you and hoping that around your corner is a little baby embie that sticks and comes to fruition in 9 months!
Keep the faith!!!
xo,
Krista
