We've got 7 frozen embies. Not much, but it's something. We decided that we don't want to go the IVF route again. We'll try the FET, and if it doesn't work, we'll plan to adopt.

Sarah- What is FET? Frozen Embryo Transfer? So you will do a transfer but if those don't take you will not do another retrieval? I think I understand.

SO exciting..

Still hanging out in limbo. I will test again in the morning if no AF and temp is normal (barring I get some sleep LOL)

Sarah - how exciting. Seems like 7 is quite a few to me. I think I would think about them every day. I hope the FET works for you. How exciting.\


Boo for the BFNs!! I am sure we will have some BFPs soon.

Yep, you're right on! We have to meet w/ the RE and see what all it entails. I know that I'd have to do a medicated cycle, and avoiding the meds as much as possible is our primary reason for not wanting to deal w/ IVF again.
Plus, our insurance covers IVF but NOT FET. I wish we'd have remembered that when we originally made the decision to freeze them. I don't think we could have said "toss 'em", though, so it's just as well.

7 isn't too many, considering they have to thaw. We'll just see what happens when the time comes.

Sarah-how exciting!

Christie-I'm holding out hope for you!!

I was really crampy this morning but that has disappeared and still no sign of AF. I'm pretty sure I'm not PG but if AF doesn't show by tomorrow I will test again on Thursday.

Christie-I came on here hoping to hear good news from you, to the BFN. I know you really wanted it this month. I think we'll be cycle buddies because still no AF for me, but definitely feel that she is on her way.

Christie~ I'm so sorry!!!

I'm with you and Bina. AF will be here anytime. I'm already crampy. Yuck. I'm ready to get this cycle here and start TTC, though.

Christie - Oh no on the BFN. I hope it happens for you soon. It wasn't for lack of effort. Your chart looks good.

Thanks girls. My DH was like "just think about all the people who try for so much longer.. in the grand scheme of things 3 months is nothing" I know he is right, but that doesn't make me want to be pg any less. I am just lucky he is supportive. I am not holding out hope for a surprise. Still no AF, but tomorrow is my "usual" day I think.

Wow, Christie. If you continue to BD like that, I think you'll end up with a girl.

Is anyone gender swaying?

Christie- Sorry for the lousy BFN. That sucks and I know it wears on the mind.

Lisad- You had originally thought about "gender swaying" (or whatever you call it, hadn't you? Whatever happened with that?
