Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[Mells54]

GL Wanna! Already 12 weeks!

 

[Turkey16]

Hey everybody!!! Had my baseline appt. today and was told my levels are "within normal limits". No BCP today and I start the Lupron tomorrow!!! So excited and nervous!!! These are my numbers:
BLOOD LEVELS:
E2 Level: 40.9
HCG Level: <5(<1.0)
FSH Level: 2.41
LH Level: 1.90
P4 Level: 0.214

Anyone have any insight?? Does it even matter at this point?? Also, the BCPs alone made me nauseous...am I doomed with the Lupron/menopur/gonal-F???

Thanks in advance for any insight!!!

First - yayyy congrats That's definitely a bfp!! It takes a couple of days after implantation is complete for enough hcg to show up as a positive hpt. So it seems like you are right on schedule

 

[Em260]

Wannabeemum - hope your scan went well!!

Babies - good luck on Monday!

 

[MoBaby]

Wannabe! Can't wait to hear about 12 wk scan
Turkey: yay for starting!

3 more bcp left for me! Fx they are working! I'll find out next week. I'm afraid they aren't though b/c I'm still bleeding!! Ugh.

 

[alicatt]

Mo! Yay, won't be long now!

Wannabe! Congrats on your 12 week appt!

Turkey! Levels look good! Yay for starting!

AFM.. AF is arriving, I had some spotting late this afternoon! Going to call my FS in the morning so we can start my trial again!

 

[Edamame]

Turkey- I didn't get sick from BCP, but lupron gave me nasty headaches. Hope you don't get hit with them! Yay for getting going!

Wanna- can't wait to hear how your scan went!

Mo-c'mon pills- work, darn it!

Ali- glad to hear you get to start again soon- I really hope the trial goes *much* better this time.

 

[alicatt]

Edamame.. you just reminded me of how horrible I felt on lupron! I had hives, and headaches, that stuff was horrible! From the sounds of it, most people had little reaction to it but for me it was not good. I took Benadryl nightly to combat the hives, and suffered through.

For me it was a toss up.. Lupron or PIO! Neither were fun..

 

[Edamame]

Oh yeah, it is no fun at all. And not looking forward to the PIO shots- so painful! What the heck!

Thank you for all of your thoughts. The scan went well. Baby is still there and was moving around like crazy. Amazingly surreal! Very low risk for Downs which is one less thing to worry about. Phew.

First - did you POAS again??? Is the line getting darker??

Great news Wannabeemum! Congrats!! In trying to get acclimated w/ everyone on this site, I think I remember reading that you were a big runner...is that right??

 

[cali_kt]

First- Wow! That is awesome! Definitely got a nice pink 2nd line...especially on the I.C.! So happy for you!

Thanks for the "heads" up...hahaha! Pun intended! Just took my first Lupron shot...is cheesy humor a side effect?!?!

Ahhhhh!!! I'm so excited & nervous!! I'm wondering if I can take Advil if I get headaches like you guys did?? Is that allowed??

Thank you! I can't wait to follow everyone on here as they get their BFPs!!

I was a big runner. Used to run marathons. Am now lucky to get out for a 3-4k walk a few times a week - have been out on limited activity until further notice. Tough to go from one extreme to the other, but all worth it in the end.

 

[MoBaby]

Yea wanna!! Congrats!!!! That's amazing

Yay for your scan!!! That is just awesome!

Thank you, Cali. We'll see...

Thanks for asking, Wannabee. My FRER today is ever-so-slightly darker (see attached). I'm out of ICs, but I ordered more. I hope the development picks up steam soon. For now, we are expecting a m/c so we don't set ourselves up for a big disappointment.

 

[WannabeeMum]

There is definitely a 2nd line there, First. Embrace it and enjoy it and try to think positive thoughts while being prepared for the worst (which hopefully won't be the outcome).

 

[MoBaby]

First that's much darker IMO!!!! No squinter today!! Congrats!

 

[L4hope]

Congrats on good appt wannabe! That's quite a milestone!!

Ali, yay for getting started!

Turkey looks like you're good to go! It is exciting to get started with a new cycle and renewed hope that IVF brings!

First, tests are looking good! Fingers crossed!

 

[FirstTry]

Thank you, everyone. It's got some darkening to do before Monday. I've got a couple more FRERs, so I'll keep monitoring.

Sorry that I'm having a bit of a "me" moment now.

Have we heard from Lotus lately?
