You want symptoms, here they are:

NOTHING! LOL I feel nothing today!

The last couple days I've had AF like cramping and had a really bloated feeling... but blew it off to be nothing. I'm really trying to not put any stock into 2WW sxs b/c I'm positive that they are all caused by the Ovridel booster! Also, I'm still telling myself that my p4 number is caused by that too... I can NOT get my hopes up! It always just crushes me... ya know?

On another note - Does anyone watch Private Practice with Addison from Grey's Anatomy? Anyways, they always touch a bit on infertility and I thought that last weeks show was just horrible! The DH had no sperm in his sample and they told them they had no choice but to use donor sperm or adopt... then they thought, Hmmm.. let's try this new procedure and surgically extract the sperm. Like DUH, that would be the first thing I would think of... They acted like it was no big deal and it was just easy as pie. They blew off all the emotions that a woman dealing with infertility deals with. It just really disturbed me! Then, as the lady who had just had the egg transfer was walking into the elevator she stops and says, Is it possible to already feel pregnant?? FREAKING GAG ME!!!! UGH!! I was just sick to my stomach! Oh well, there was my rant for the day! =)

Yeah, that episode blew, it was like "oh, you are getting ready to ovulate, let's do the procedure right now, there is nothing else that needs to be done first", gag me!

Don't read into symptoms, I swear I had the same symptoms every single cycle, including ivf, whether I was pg or not, it's the hormones, think if you weren't "trying", you wouldn't have even missed your period or have any inkling about maybe being pregnant yet.

Hang in there!

I have that episode still sitting in my dvr. Thanks for the warning - I'm gonna skip it now. :-)

The cycle we conceived I had NO "pregnancy" symptoms, I actually had a strange absence of PMSy symptoms too...the ladies that DID have every symptom in the book turned out not to be pregnant and I was!

I can relate to your feelings on the show...I watched Knocked Up this weekend and wanted to gag a few times myself...I was like "OH COME ON!"

Hang in there Ang. Remember, I had no symptoms either...just a teeny tiny bit of cramping. I hope you are proven wrong! I sooo want this to be the perfect Christmas present. 4 more days til testing!!
