We started trying to have children in May 2002. After pursuing fertility treatments, domestic, and international adoption, our daughter Nadia Renee was born on 6-24-08 (at 36w4d). IVF #2 resulted in Ian Alexander, who was born on 12-12-09 (at 34w3d). Oliver Elliot (IVF #3) was born on 8-7-12 (at 31w6d)! Three other pregnancies (in 2005, 2007, and 2013) ended in miscarriage. Our family is complete! We are so thankful for our three miracles!

Ouch!
Well in the middle of the night I woke up in rather intense pain in my ovaries, and although it's not as sharp, the pressure is definitely back. The last few days I could walk without pain (well except my hips hurt when I walk from the PIO), and the seatbelt also was no longer hurting me. Well that temporary reprieve is over. And I am glad, LOL! On Saturday the nurse said the bloating might return on Wednesday, particularly if I am pregnant. So I was a little disappointed yesterday when I felt fine. I like being in less pain, but I was hoping it didn't mean I wasn't pregnant. Of course my pain today doesn't guarantee I am pregnant, but it is an encouraging sign (according to the nurse anyhow!). Now the pain in my butt is not an encouraging symptom, but yikes has the pain there greatly intensified today as well!!! Well if these injections lead to a baby (or babies!) they will be soooooooo worth it!

Ruth! your in my thoughts and prayers!!!
Oh, baby baby! Ruth, I told you I started getting OHSS symptoms at around 10dpo so I take this as a very good sign. But, please, keep monitoring yourself and ask your doctor what to do if your symtoms get worse. I think that rest is very important, any maybe also the pedialyte (I can't remember... see, I told you the brain "fries" after having kids and you forget all about infertility etc).
Anyway, I'll keep thinking of you. This sounds like very good news! (I know, except for the pain...)
I have such good feelings about this :-)
Ruth - been thinking about you alot, praying for you all. +++++ thoughts.
Ruth...
I am SOOOOO excited for you...I've been telling you I have a really good feeling about this. I'm sorry you're in pain, but I'm very happy to hear that you're having positive thoughts!
