No worries at all Turkey, there are so many lovely ladies on this thread! :)

Still in our holding pattern- we should get the genetic test results by the end of this week. Then a meeting with their genetic counselor to discuss the results and any tests we'll need to do on the embryos from the next IVF. I'm supposed to call in on the first day of my next AF (due in two weeks or so now), and they'll do a baseline u/s and blood tests to check my AMH. The blood test results will help my RE decide what protocol to use for the next IVF- he said we might be able to do one without BCP, which would be a little quicker! On day 6 of that cycle I have to do another saline hysterogram, bleagh. Of course we're :sex: still in hopes of that last minute miracle, but I'm just looking forward to getting this show on the road again, going to be 37 in September!

Sorry for the novel. :)
 
Mells!! Congrats!

I had a cd10 scan today to see if I was going to ovulate.. Looks like my right ovary is very active! I have 2 follicles that are maturing (both at 13-14) and one that was 11 and then 12 smaller ones (then 15 on my left that are small). Sony should ovulate from two follicles this cycle which will be great for the FET! Waiting in estradiol results. Now three times daily LH testing. I just did one in the bathroom at work: awkward!!
 
Turkey wow you did a great job catching up with everyone! I know I'm not going to come close to that. I have been away on vacation for the past week so just now trying to catch up.

Mells so excited for you!!! Congrats!!!!!

Lotus I can only imagine moving so much all the time, not to mention moving from somewhere so beautiful as Hawaii I'm sure nothing in the states really compares. I forget where did you move, Virginia?

Mo hoping things are going to go smoothly for you. This process can really wear on your relationship with all of the stress it brings. :hugs:

Anxious it sounds like you have a good plan for moving forward.

Sweet hope things are going better. I'm sure it's very scary! :hugs:

Sandy congrats on being an Aunt! You'll be soon to follow and your little one will have a cousin to play with!

Sorry for missing many of you, after a week away my brain is struggling to remember all. But hope all are well. :)

Afm, back from a nice week long road trip to Chicago with stops along the way in pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis. It was definitely nice to get away with the hubs after taking a long break from vacations while going through ivf. Thanks for asking turkey and sekky. All is going well so far, next appt on Wednesday. But baby is moving more and more and hubs got to feel it. So I'm sure all is still well. I'm definitely looking more and more undeniably pregnant now. Which is nice to know people don't look at me and think I'm just getting fat! :haha: Turkey I'm in York, PA not too far from Philly so I hear ya with the heat. Thank goodness for central air!! We are going to an Orioles game in Bmore on Wednesday and its supposed to be 93 degrees! Yikes!!!
 
Turkey- thanks for asking. We are good. I'm 10+3 today. With each ultrasound I feel better. We havent got to actually hear the heartbeats yet. I'm hoping with my next appt July 17( high risk peritanologist) we get to hear them. We will have a consult that day and an ultrasound. My symptoms come and go. Wish I had them 24/7 lol so I know everything is going ok

Mells- yay!!! CONGRATS that's so exciting!
 
turkey - I've been alright. Not really TTC right now. We just moved to CA from NYC last Wednesday so my life has been very hectic lately. We're now settling in so it's getting less stressful. I think I'm going to start taking some vitamins for fertility but I'm not doing any fertility treatments for at least 6 months.
 
Hey L4- This was my first military move, and it is so different... Moving when it isn't your choice... I did move to VA. I need to update my profile. :winkwink: I'm sure I will get used to it and make friends, but for now I miss Hawaii. A LOT.

I'm supposed to receive an email regarding the decision on our grant application any day, and it's starting to take over my mind. I'm constantly refreshing my email and hoping for good news... Of course, the plan is to wait a little while so we can pay for the "shared risk" plan and not have to pay for each cycle separately. There's a part of me that wishes we could just hurry up and do another IVF cycle (and that it would be successful) rather than being smart about it (and waiting 6 months) and getting the better price (and possible refund) for multiple cycles... :dohh: Oh this ttc thing is rough. :coffee:

Turkey - aww you're welcome! I'm so happy I could help!! Let me know if you have any other questions or just need some reassurance if you get nervous. You got this!!

I'm doing well, thanks for asking. I had a bleeding scare this week but thankfully all was fine and I got to have another ultrasound and see my little bean :). It's still surreal sometimes but yes the symptoms have definitely set in. I've got two more days until I reach 10 weeks and that is as far as I've ever gotten in a pregnancy so it will be a huge relief once I pass that point. I'm on vacation from school for the next couple of weeks so I'm taking this time to rest and relax as much as possible.

When are you getting started with your cycle?
 
Doctor stopped counting today when he found 30 follicles 16-20mm. So I will be triggering today with retrieval Wednesday morning! I know I'm going to suffer from ohss so I took a week off work starting tomorrow.
 
Brandy, wow...lots of eggs I suspect you will have. Good luck and drink lots of Gatorade.

Morning Ladies

Nice to see this thread busy again :hugs:

Mells, Congratulations on the BFP thats an amazing beta :wohoo:

Mo, great news on ovulating soon not long now! :happydance:

Brandy, congrats on all the follicles. I wouldn't worry about OHSS too much as i had 40+ follicles at ER and i only got a mild case of OHSS. I had it worse the cycle before and i only had 28 follicles then. It doesn't get worse the more follicles you have it's more to do with your estrogen levels so I'm sure they will keep an eye on you but just keep well hydrated and eat little and often. :hugs:

Nice to see an update from all you pregnant ladies. It gives us all hope when we here you are progressing nicely and that IVF does work :hugs:

Sounds like the rest of you ladies who haven't got there BFP yet all have great plans for moving forward and are an inspiration to us all :hugs:

xx
 
Turkey your post made me smile. Thank you for thinking of me. Am already on my way starting another IVF cycle this month if AF comes. Will be doing same protocol with just a little tilt to my meds.

I intend to request for different meds or a combo of some sort. This failed cycle I used only menopur to stim.

Hey sandy. How is your little niece?

Mo final countdown to FET hun? Keeping everyting crossed for you.

Ash good to hear from you.

Lucie if you still check in here pls know that you are in our thought.

Hey everyone
 
Sekky, glad to hear you will be underway with another cycle this month, Fx'd for this cycle. Are you doing anything different i.e diet, acupuntre, supplements etc?

I'm loving being an auntie and it's a Boy so it's my nephew and going to see him tonight just can't get enough of him. I'm hoping to be starting my next cycle by the end of this month will know definite timescale by next week. xx
 
Sandy, Mo, Sekky, Ali and everyone else still trudging through the TTC process just keep hope that your turn is coming. Some of us are just a little trickier than others, but your little miracles are just around the corner. :hugs:
