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

[alicatt]

Thanks Edamame...


First IVF cycle so I am super nervous about these scans sheesh I really hope everything is going well and the blood work comes back ok.

It's perfectly natural to be anxious and nervous, from my experience good FS's can manage the cycle and maximize the results by monitoring the follies, your bloods and the stim dosage. With as many follies as you have you'll do great! The blood result to watch is you're estrogen, so you don't get OHSS. FX'd that they are growing and all is well!

Morning Ladies

Mo, Hope you can get the report released to you and hopefully get things sorted for this cycle keep us updated

Brandy, Good luck for scan today I've been through a couple of IVF cycles now and always have something to worry about and get anxious about on scans so don't worry you aren't alone.

Mells, Don't worry about not feeling anything this could be a good sign. Not long till OTD

Hope the rest of you are doing well

AFM, Looks like the natural BFP is not happening as got water sample test back and looks like i have an infection. They found traces of leukocytes, blood and protein in my urine so getting a course antibiotics and are sending it to the lad for more testing. Well we can only hope for these things to happen. On a positive note I'm looking into doing acupunture this cycle so fx'd it will help assist the IVF to get me my BFP xx

 

[Anxiously]

Hi ladies just a quick update on the run. Had a CD10 scan and lining is not doing well at just 4.4mm. Follicles on the left measuring at 9.5mm. Looks like the Viagra is not working and I'm suffering from its side effects all the same. Have been given progynova to see if my lining can catch up before ovulation. Next scan is on Sat.

 

[Sandy83]

Anx, Sorry to hear the viagra isn't working hoping they have caught it in enough time to get your lining caught up. Fx'd for Saturday xx

 

[Mells54]

Oh anxiously! I'm sorry about your lining, there is always some curve ball to contend with in all this. It will all be worth it in the end when we have our LOs.

 

[MoBaby]

Anxious! I'm sorry it isn't working what a bummer. Hopefully the med helps bring it up.


Afm DH scored the labs!! I'll look over them when I get home but he said nothing was marked for review. He said they wanted to know why we needed a copy.. That makes me so mad. I paid for them! Why does it matter. If I wanted to make copies and hand out or put on FB who cares?? They are mine. He told them the truth though which I don't like he did that. I wish he would have said just for our files. Oh well we have them and I will keep my appt for the 17th.

So glad you got your results mobaby.

I went for my scan today. Out of my 37 follicles they think I will have 12 retrieved Whig is around the same as my 10 last time. Good to know my really low dose is working lol. I'm only on 50 puregon and 1 vial menopur (75). Not sure when retrieval date will be. Dr said today that they think that it could be on the weekend but could be mon or tues. I'm kinda hoping for the weekend because my parents are away next week. Dhs parents can hopefully watch my dd but she's much more comfortable wih my parents esp right now.

I Had my 2nd scan today. After 4 day of stims they found 38 follies ranging from 10 to 14. I haven't noticed any side effects yet from the stims or the excessive amount of eggs.... I hope thats a good thing. The doctor said I will begin to notice major breast tenderness and CM within the next couple days. They did blood work so I am waiting for a call to see if we need to reduce my medication at all. I am only on 150IU of Menopur and 150IU of Puregon but since they are growing so fast after only 4 days of meds they want to slow them down.

I should be triggering by my calendar Monday but if they continue to grow like this I would trigger Saturday for Monday retrieval… Although the sooner the better for me so I don’t have issues or develop OHSS I will go with whatever is the best for the best outcome.

Hope everyone is well. I just dropped in while at work so I will catch up later tonight.

 

[MoBaby]

Brandy do you have pcos? That's a lot of follicles!!

 

[~Brandy~]

Brandy do you have pcos? That's a lot of follicles!!

Nope I was ovulating just fine pre meds and my husbands SA's have all been great. Our only issue is that I have short tubes due to tubal reversal.

The last monitored unmedicated cycle I did I had 19 follies.

Morning Ladies

Blue & Brandy, sounds like things are going well and should be triggering soon

Mo, Great news. Did you manage to have a look through the report?

Mells, Not long til OTD exciting!

Ali, How you doing?

Sekky, any news on when you will start next cycle. Sorry if you have already said just can't remember.

Any news from the rest of you ladies who are going ahead with another cycle as to when you will be starting etc?

Hope you ladies who got there BFP are doing well. Has anyone got any up and coming scans etc? xx

 

[MoBaby]

Oh yes I looked and everything is normal. No clotting issues. No genetic issues. No thyroid or prolactin issues. Fsh was 4.5 and amh 2.54. So everything is fine. I'll still go discuss with new re buy I didn't like when they said the dr needs to discuss with you.

 

[Sandy83]

Mo, glad to hear everything is normal and know what you mean when they ask you to come in you just think the worse!!!! Well roll on your FET xx

 

[Mells54]

Mo, from my experience only the doc can give you your results so he is the one I have to talk to directly. Maybe they felt this way too. Hopefully, everything is good to go for your FET.

I dont know how you do it Mells... Not testing early.

I am on the edge of my chair waiting to hear from you on the 8th

 

[MoBaby]

I know! I cant hold out even when I know the test will be false pos from trigger or HCG shot! I cant wait to hear either

 

[Sandy83]

My WTF appt has been moved forward a week to 17th July I know its not that much different but its a week earlier. xx

a week is a long time in the ttc world

 

[Mells54]

Brandy and Mo, part of the reason I haven't tested early is bc my MIL is here helping me since DH is gone. I don't want to test and then have to pretend I didn't until I can tell H the result, especially if its negative. I rather she didn't know right away. Last 2 cycles AF showed before OTD so I take it as a "positive" sign she isn't here yet. But this time I did a 3dt instead of 5. And since we used donor eggs no trigger shot so no fear of a false positive, just so much on line I feel like so wanting to wait it out for now.

 

[Sweetness_87]

Hey ladies hope everyone is doing well!!

Mo- glad everything turned out great. I would see if he can put you on lovenox, or heparin prophactically.

Mells- wishing you the best of luck

Sandy- I'm doing good had a scan yesterday and all looked great. Next appt and ultrasound is July 17 with the high risk doc. My new scan is my profile. Hope all is going well with you

Brandy- great folkie count!!!
