Clear Blue Digital - 7dp5dt

7dp5dt – HPT+!

Actually, yesterday, at around noon, I took a test and there was a faint 2nd line.  This morning I POAS’d (2nd morning urine) and saw the 2nd line was darker. I also did a digital test and it came up “pregnant”. YAY! My beta is on Friday.  I’m hoping for a good strong number!

6dp5dt – Not a whole lot of anything.

I hardly slept a wink last night.  I have no idea why – I’m certainly not drinking caffeine, so that’s not it.  I was just wide awake for most of the night. A big part of it was that I just couldn’t get comfortable from a temperature standpoint.  One minute I was sweating my head [...]

5dp5dt – Eh, just tired.

I’ll go right into my symptom check: sore boobs very tired tight abdomen dizziness I must say the dizziness is something new.  It’s not too bad, but more pronounced than I’ve ever noticed before.  I did see that lots of people attribute it to the meds, so I’m not too excited. In fact, I looked [...]

3dp5dt – Somethin’ goin’ on down there…

Just as the title of the post indicates – it feels like something is going on in my uterus. I am 3 days past transfer, and felt absolutely nothing the first 2 days. Today, completely different. All kinds of twinges down there. Symptom Check: Sore boobs Slight cramps and twinges Elevated temperature (this I’m going [...]

It’s a Two-fer!

All of that worrying and it worked out great.  Our two embryos on ice thawed “beautifully” today and were transferred to my uterus this afternoon.  I am officially in the (in)-famous Two-Week-Wait. I started the day feeling my usual nervous pre-transfer self.  I nearly chickened-out and almost cancelled my acupuncture appointment before and after the [...]

Next Step, Transfer!

Had my lining check yesterday. Measured at 12. Excellent. My blood work came back, too. I started PIO shots last night. Joy. I will get a phone call Saturday telling me what time my Monday transfer will be. My doc is doing the transfer so that’s great!

Time for the emotional roller coaster to begin…

I’m sure it’s the estrogen talking, but for the past few days, I have been feeling “down”. I am usually a happy person, so I know that this a result of the Delestrogen injections. I have another injection tonight. In about a week or so, I will be adding progesterone to the mix in the [...]

Let’s get going!

Yay!  I’m so glad I have finally stopped taking those BCP’s.  They were much better than Necon, but still, I’m just generally more emotional on all these hormones. Would you believe that my backside is still feeling the effects of the injections for December?!  I took my last injection on December 23rd, but I still [...]

Junel – An Improvment or Not?

I may have spoken too soon on the lack of side effects from the Junel I’m taking.  Although I haven’t blown up at my husband (this is really good), I did have an emotional breakdown today while I was out to lunch.  Thank goodness no one was with me. Today is a blistery cold day [...]

This time, with feeling.

I’m so glad I told my nurse about how much I hated Necon because she already called in my replacement BCP’s called “Junel” and it was ready at the pharmacy.  I really don’t want to be a monster for the greater part of January.  I just don’t want to put my husband through that again. [...]
