I think I need to go to bed. Taking a sick day today and can't focus on anything to save my life. I even cancelled my acupuncure appt b/c I didn't think I was in any shape to drive (about a 40 min trip) there and back... ugh.

Tkeys, I can't wait to see how your check turns out tomorrow. I hope that estrogen is nice and low this time.

Rachelle, I wish you lots of luck with your FET. Your little girl is beautiful by the way.

Andrea, I hope this tww goes by quickly for you and that you get a BFP soon!

I hope everyone else is doing well and that your cycles are progressing as scheduled! Some questions:

Is anyone "moody" on Lupron? I am starting to be much more easily irritated than normal, but don't remember feeling this way my last cycle.

Oh, and are you Lupron girls gaining weight before even starting stims? I am on day 7 of Lupron and have gained 3 lbs. already! And I have been eating healthy.. I just don't get it!

I'm glad you asked, gin - I'm definitely gaining weight. My head is killing me - I slept for like 3 hours this afternoon. As for moodiness - I'm not sure - DH has been away, so I haven't had anyone to snap at .

Ladies,

This time last year we had a thread going. I cycled March/April 2007, boy I remember it like it was yesterday. I remeber at one point feeling why me? Why do I have to go through this? Why was this all taking a toll on me... I remember each shot, each blood draw, each sonogram ( I actually have tears in my eyes). It sounds crazy, but I actually miss it. That part of my life was the hardest, but yet most rewarding experience in my life. IVF made me grow as a person, but through the hurt, the anger, the pain, through it all I never gave up hope. I really do believe this group will be a special group and many 's will come. I will be routing you all on and thinking nothing, but ++++ Vibes. I feel it in my bones this will be a wonderful next few weeks to come, just continue to BELIEVE & Have FAITH & HOPE!
