Forums New posts
thanks girls! I'm really so excited, I just want to see if I got improved egg quality from changing protocol.

edamame - funny, I thought that since I was on the antagonist protocol I was going to get less eggs, with less chance of OHSS but I'm pretty much in the same boat as I was during my lupron cycles ... crazy! Changing protocol can be scary but I'm sure your doctor wouldn't recommend it if it were going to give you less results then the other protocol.

Pickles - welcome to the group and congrats on your bfp! I will keep you in my thoughts that this baby/babies stick!

AFM - depending on quality I'm thinking of asking them to transfer 3 ... do you girls think I'm crazy?
 
Ash: I wish I could give you the extra Ovidrel trigger that's sitting in my fridge! I used them for IUI.

Three is a lot of embies; what does your doctor think? We have generally relied on ours to make the call. This was the first time he suggested more than one for us.

Everyone: what is an antagonist protocol?

Ali: Big day! Check in as soon as you can :thumbup:
 
first - thanks for the offer :) I actually have the ovidrel trigger but they want me to take some other trigger now ... how convenient! :haha: My doctor is probably going to want to transfer two like the last couple of times, however being that I've NEVER gotten pregnant in the 2 years 7 months that we've been trying I just ... don't think the risk is that high of having all 3 stick ya know?

From what I understand the antagonist protocol is just a protocol without lupron. They use BCP's first, then start stiming you and as your follicles get bigger and mature they give you ganerelix (which is similar to lupron) to make sure you don't ovulate before they're ready for you to.
 
Hey ladies thank you for your thoughts.

Ash:happydance: for trigger. Fx they are better quality than your previous cycle

Anxious glad you are enjoying your holiday. Keeping everything crossed for you.

Ali good luck with your transfer. Can't wait to hear all about it
 
Thanks, Ash. Since that describes my protocol and I've never taken Lupron, I guess I had the antagonist protocol when I froze my eggs in 2011 (I was single at the time) and a modified version when my IUI cycle was converted last year.
 
Hey ladies!

Home now and relaxing in bed. The embryos thawed perfectly and we transferred 2! The in kind of looked like a sea turtle. I'm having a turtle! :haha:

First.. :yipee: that looks like a BFP to me!

Ash.. sound like you are progressing well! ER on Friday :wohoo:

Em.. lining sounds perfect! 5-6 days till transfer! :headspin:

Going to take a nap now.. Thank you all for your kind words!

:hug:
 
Ali!! Yay!!! Congrats!! Pupo :happydance:
Ash: gl w/triggering!!

Afm I have had this left side pain for 2 days now; really hurts bad so I had the u/s tech at work scan me... Looks like a big follicle on left ovary (25 mm)... She said cyst but there were a few Small follicles and this dominant one. But my opk was neg this am and yesterday (cd14).. I hope it's not just a cyst and I'm gonna be anovulatory this month :( this really hurts!
 
Ali that's great. So happy everything went fun for you

2girls fx for good numbers tomorrow. Looking forward to hearing it

First when is your beta too?

AFM had my follie check at noon. Dr had a difficult time seeing one of my ovary but was able to count 4 and 6 in both of them. So 10 in all. My dose of menopur has been increased to 225iu so I go in on Friday for e2 and follie check again.

Edit: they are all under 10mm. I guess 10 follie isn't bad for my starting dose
 
Mo - I'm sorry you're in pain! Hopefully that's a follicle and not a cyst!

sekky - 10 is not bad at all! Some tend to pop up later! Good luck on Friday! Keep us posted
 
Mo sorry about the cyst. Will it go away on it own or will you have to drain it? You will still get AF with anovulatory right?

Thanks ash. Like you am only after quality and not quantity
 
Yeah I think it's better that way. Unfortunately I still produced 20+ eggs ... but oh well what am I gonna do.
 
Sekky: 10 is great for only 4 days into stims.

Mo: I wonder how they can tell the difference. 25mm sounds like perfect size for a dominant follicle about to ovulate. Either way, I hope you feel better soon.

What pretty embies, Ali!!! Yours looks like a 3D photo. I'm hoping hoping hoping this is your BFP!

YAY Ali!!! Sounds like everything went wonderfully! Hurray! Can't wait to hear updates from here on out! Rest up & enjoy!! xoxo
 
I m pretty sure it's dominate follicle. The walls didn't look "cyst like" more follicle like.... So Im betting lh surge today or tomorrow. Just hope it's soon! This hurts :(
 
Trigger at 11PM tonight! Woohoo! Only annoying part is that they changed my trigger from ovidrel to HCG and Lupron so .... they ordered the HCG from a pharmacy, I already have the lupron but my insurance company will only cover the HCG if it's ordered and shipped from Freedom pharmacy. Now I'm not bitching too much because if this is the only thing I have to pay full price for then okay but it's just the principal that if they had ordered it yesterday I wouldn't have had to pay 80 .... I could have paid 15. Just saying.

ER Friday at 11AM! Have to be there at 10! Woo hoo!
