My appt is at 8:30am. Oh you are there on Monday aren't you what time are you there? xx

 

[annmc30]

Im there 8:10 x

 

[Sandy83]

Oh freaky we could be there about the same time!!!!!!!!! Should we wear something to recognize each other

 

[annmc30]

Il be wearing a grey jacket black leggings black long boots lol

Ladies I was thinking about this... I could potentially be going for FET this month! If I do natural fet there aren't any meds until ovulation. When I go for my f/u I'll be cd9 and that's when you start ovulation monitoring! I'm hoping my re goes with this plan but obviously if he recommends waiting one more af then I'll wait until march. Only issue could be I didn't have a cd3 ultrasound but I only remember having u/s last time at cd 14 or 16 to ck lining.

 

[Sandy83]

ann, Ill watch out for you but think i might miss you if they are running on time!

Mo, Fx'd that you can do FET this month When is your appt? xx

 

[MoBaby]

Tuesday feb 5th... 4 more days!!

 

[Sandy83]

oh exciting you might not be long behind us in the 2ww if you can go ahead this month yay! xx

Edamame - it's good they will modify your dose. Fx your lining will have lots of growth between now and Tuesday!

Wannabee - thank you! It's so good to hear those success stories with IUI! That is great news about your second beta Fx for your ultrasound on the 12th. Make sure to let us know how it goes

Sandy - good luck on Monday! How cool that you and Ann could possibly meet.

Bluebell - I think it's a good possibility the mid size ones will catch up. I had a couple more pop up toward the end.

Mo - ooh that is exciting you could start this month yay!! Not too long until your appt now. I am so happy you'll finally have some answers.

Sorry i have been off the map for a few days.. life gets hectic.

I need some help/advice... today is day 8 of stims. I feel bloated and my last E2 reading from Wednesday's bloods was 945 (day 6). The RE told me today that I'm a low responder.. only 8 follicles seen right now- all between 14-17mm. I'm on 1cc menopur and 75ml gonal f every night and I've been taking ganirelix since wednesday.

I'm feeling really discouraged at this point. I'm only 30, no other fertility issues on my end and my E2 is high enough. Why am I a low responder.. what does that even mean? In the moment I didn't ask the questions I should have so I'm wondering if this isn't going to be a good cycle. He said i will probably retrieve next wednesday, Feb 6th and theyre hoping for a 5day transfer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated at this point. I'm bloated, sore and feel like a pin cushion. Waiting on today's bloods.

I'll do personals later... so much work to do. xo

Today is 3rd and final beta day for me, and also, if the beta is good, I should be scheduling my U/S for next Friday. Hoping for an early morning one, less wait time

 

[MoBaby]

It doesn't sound low to me... I was at 2000 after day 10 last cycle and got 19 mature eggs from 22 follicles.

I think you are on a low dose of meds also which is why you have. In 30 also and normal labs but I am a slow responder at first and did much higher meds. I'm sure it will turn out great!

Gl phantom!

Thanks Mobaby-
My E2 is high enough.. i'm not worried about that.. i just only have 8 follicles from what they see... I'm worried thats not enough.. Dont know why theres only 8 when I'm 30... but maybe it's because I'm on such low stims?

I only had 7 showing before ER, but they got 11 eggs. Turns out 3 matured, so we transferred one last time and will transfer 2 this time. It's quality over quantity, though. Don't let it worry you. You can't change it either way, you can only prepare your body and mind.

So happy to hear things are progressing nicely Wannabe! Looking forward to hearing how your first scan goes!

Greyhound- can't wait to hear how poas goes! Really hope this is a lucky thread for all of us!

Thank you! And good luck to you for your transfer!

Positive thoughts to everyone this month!

Every woman is different in how they will respond to the meds. I've learned through my egg freezing (when I was single) and medicated IUIs that once the doctor understands how you respond, s/he can correct the protocol.

Since you are on Ganerelix, that tells me that you have mature or near mature follicles already (good!). Since it's your first IVF, the RE had to start with the standard protocol. However, he may realize now that a larger dose of Gonal earlier would've jump started more eggs.

Either way, it looks like you could have at least 8 mature and that would be great. However, I think more will catch up before ER.

The moral is that there's nothing wrong with you; the RE just has to learn how your body works so he can give you the best protocol. Hopefully, he won't need to use that learning because this time will result in all the babies you want!

FIRSTTRY- THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You have reassured me completely and it makes perfect sense what you're saying. These hormones can make you feel all sorts of emotions and fears.. I have been pretty calm and feeling well up until yesterday.. now I'm getting tired and scared of whats to come next week. I only need one to stick... lets hope theyre all winners and we have frozen as well... Thank you, thank you, thank you. xo
