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

[time2deal]

Time - sorry about the staph infection . Hopefully it will clear up quickly. Yay for 11 eggs Were you sedated for the EC? I was and the meds made me feel a little weepy/down for a day or two. Hope you can get some rest today.

PGD is preimplantation genetic diagnosis. It requires taking a biopsy of the embryo and sending it to an outside lab for testing. They can check for single gene disorders, for example if the parents are carriers of cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, etc. We're only testing our embryos for missing or extra chromosomes.

I did think it might be some kind of testing. Do you have something in particular that they are looking for?

You are right actually. After last general I was down for a while too - so most probably just the meds. I feel like I should be happy, but just not feeling quite right.

Bring on tomorrow!

I don't have anything in particular, it's just that we're only transferring one embryo at a time so it's more important to make sure the one we're transferring has the normal amount of chromosomes.

I didn't make that connection about the anesthesia until after my second round when I had that same down feeling for the first day or so. Plus add in the stims which made me more emotional as well. You'll be feeling much better tomorrow Fx for a great fert report!!

Posted in my other forums, so if you're there.. disregard

I had my baseline sono/bloods today.. waiting for inj. instructions..

in the meanwhile... last night I started feeling so sick, feverish and I feel so tired and weak today. I'm definitely sick with something, I'm just hoping it's not the flu.

Has anyone been sick with the flu or a cold during stimming? Can i take anything now? I'm so petrified it's going to get worse and they're going to tell me we can't do my stimming/ET/ER....

HELP!!!

I came down with something during my first IVF and it wasn't an issue. I think you have to be on death's door before they will cancel. You could always ask about it when they call to give you instructions. Just rest up and load up on vitamin C. So exciting that you're getting started!!

Thanks Em!
I am so excited.. I couldn't believe I got sick right now! I've been so careful... but travelling this past weekend probably wasn't the smartest. Stress too can be damaging! I am patiently awaiting my phone call from the RE to find out when I start based on my bloods today....

Ali - thanks for the information on the fresh V frozen. I will speak to my dr about doing a FET because my estrogen runs pretty high normally. I would rather wait and have success than rush it. But yes I would love to deliver in 2013!!!!

Lotus - which part of Florida might you end up? I have a great RE in miami if you need one!

Time - so sorry you arent feeling well hun...but yipee on the 11 eggies!!!!

Welcome, Jade! I would look back at the previous posts to get caught up on everyone.

AFM: I have endometriosis, have one blocked tube, had a laparoscopy last summer, many failed IUIs using clomid and femara, a fresh cycle of IVF in Dec 2012 which ended in an early miscarriage and am doing a FET in Feb. I hope you can start IVF soon and get your BFP. This ttc journey is tough, but will be worth it in the end!

Em- I used mail order because that is what my insurance makes me use. It was pretty easy and they all came in time. I used MedCo and the prices were pretty good. I also heard freedom is good too. Sorry to hear about the wait till March. Sounds like me and you may be on the same timing now.

Phantom- Congrats!! Crossing fingers for some big numbers on next blood!

Ali- I want to jump on the bandwagon with March twins!!

Lotus- Glad you have your date for transfer!! Crazy to not know exactly where you are moving yet!! How stressful that must be!

Ann- Congrats on a 5 day transfer!

Time- 11 eggs sounds good! KUP on the fert report!

BabyD- Glad things are getting started! I was sick during the Lupron time and on antibiotics. They weren't too concerned. Hope you feel better!

Welcome Jade! I have blocked left tube, sluggish right, supposed low AMH, uterine fibroids. DH with low motility and morphology.

AFM- I'm getting better everyday. I go back to work tomorrow. Still with some bloating. Lost 5 pounds..wohoo! Absolutely exhausted. Just ready to feel like myself. Waiting for AF to arrive now. Heading to Maui in 8 days for some much needed R & R!
