Tomorrow I'm going in for a blood test "to see if the eggs were any good," in the words of my eloquent OB. In about three days I will be able to take an early pregnancy test and see if it worked! Fingers crossed! I don't really feel any different....

The blood test results came back- I ovulated! We just have to wait a couple more days to find out if I'm pregnant. At least if it didn't happen this time around, we know I responded to the treatments and we can try again. But hopefully there's a little baby in there somewhere....

Best of luck - be sure to update us here so we know how it went! I'm doing a FET (frozen embryo transfer) cycle right now. We did IVF w/ICSI in 2007 and these are the five embryos we had left. I take my first injection in a few days. Pretty exciting stuff, and much easier than the initial IVF!

Best to you - I'm sending positive thoughts your way.

Thank you Cheri! And rodswife! I took a test today. It was negative. It might still be a little early- it's been about 10-11 days since ovulation. If I am late for my period (if I haven't started by Tuesday), I will take another test.

Don't despair. All but one of my pee tests came up negative. I had to wait until I was actually late for the hormone to show up or have a blood test. 5 of the 6 required blood tests. Keep the faith.

Thanks, that helps me feel a lot better! I am really hoping it was a false negative. My boobs are really sore, but they usually are during the four days or so leading up to my period. I was reading some websites about all of this, and that also was helping me kind of understand what is happening.

Mine were real sore. Lol I had my nipples pierced with my 2 year old and had to take them out. That's how I knew I was pregnant even though the tests kept saying no. On the same day I had. Pee test that said no and a blood test that said yes. Baby dust coming your way.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
