    Just had another monitoring appointment this morning - my E2 is 250 and I have 5-10 follicles (<11mm) on each side and one 11.5mm one on the right. I asked the nurse for a guess on when my ER would be and she said probably Sunday to Tuesday!

    @Shutterbug: Yay for a great appointment - sounds like these are moving right along! Hope the rest of your week goes well. Are you going in daily or every other day for monitoring?

    @LovelyPlum: Yep
    I'm just trying to finish out my work today so that I can focus entirely on the transfer and resting tomorrow! Husband and I are going to get a nice dinner and one final glass of red wine (hopefully my last for 9 months!)
    This day is dragging and work-wise pretty crappy. I just want it to be tomorrow!

    @SweetiePie: eeeeek!!! I'm so ridiculously excited for you. Yes, rest is a must! Enjoy that glass of wine (or two...) and the night with your husband. Sending you every manner of positive thinking for your little snow baby tomorrow!

    @SweetiePie: I miss wine, take a sip for me

    @Apex: You've got it, girlfriend! I was trying to stay totally clean in the couple of weeks before Transfer...but then I realized that a glass or two won't hurt anything, and I'd hate to be making a big fuss over prepping my womb if it doesn't even end up working! Then I'll just be mad that I passed up a glass of wine when I wanted it
    Sunday night we went to Nobu for sushi because I wanted one last hurrah with that too! (just in case!) Though I'm sure a place like Nobu is safe even after pregnant...but still...it was fun to have an excuse to splurge and make it seem ceremonial! Haha.

    @SweetiePie: while you're at it, take one for me, too! Though I'm OK with a little bit of wine now and then, but there's none in my house right now

    @apex: you and some of the other bees were right! I've got twins cooking! I had my first ultrasound yesterday and the doctor says "so there's two in there" and I yelled "Holy $hit this is crazy!" haha. I'll be 7 weeks on Friday.

    Thx @lovelyplum, @apex, @tequiero21!

    I still can't wrap my head around it but I'm overwhelmingly grateful. I had this thought the other day that I wouldn't be able to go to the grocery store with both of them by myself until they are like 5! Lol

    @msmug: umm, yeah, my kids are almost 2 and no way can I take them by myself. I can't even take them with my mil, they hate being strapped down and want to go all over the place.

    @trailmix: I'm sure that "twins are nuts" is an understatement! but i love nuts
    @tequiero21: are you a twin mama too? If so, I'm sure I'll have LOTS of questions for you!
    @mrskoala: random.. i love your username. i almost called myself something like that (i've been told i look like a koala.. not sure if it was meant as a compliment but i'll take it as one)

    @msmug: haha yeah, I think I'm one of the first ivfers here but hellobee started just as I was in my first trimester.

    @sweetiepie: good luck today!

    @tequiero21: is @twodoghouse a twin mama too? i know @apex is on her way.. awesome!! I know there's a 'multiples' board but i havent seen much activity on it.

    @LovelyPlum: @littlek: @msmug: Thanks ladies! I'm just laying in the recovery room all suited up and ready to go! It's scheduled for 1pm!

    Question - did all of you IVF veterans go back to work after the 2nd day? I know today and tomorrow I'm on bedrest. Wondering if I should just plan on laying low Friday as well to be safe.

    @SweetiePie: I've never had IVF but I'd take Friday off... Yay! Good luck!!

    grapefruit / 4703 posts

    @SweetiePie: hm, my RE hasn't said anything about any bedrest at all (although I haven't even gotten to the ER yet!) If you can do it, or work from home, I would - why not?

    @msmug: yeah, I think she is a twin mama from this summer? I believe she was one of the handful of people who are pregnant from the august ivfs!

    Yeah, multiple board is kinda quiet, but I think it'll pick up with all the new twin mamas!

    @SweetiePie: heck yeah, I'd take Friday off! Relax, let your body do its thing, and have fun!
