Aug / Sept IVF UPDATED ROLE CALL (9.19.12 - AM)

[oneof14]

Yay jules!!! That follie count sounds great!! And maybe the unexpected progression is good since you won't have as much time to think about it!?

Is it crazy over there in London? I am loving watching the Olympics!!!!!

Afm, I am on cd12 now and will be starting Lupron on cd21. I have had some weird "spotting"and I use the term VERY loosely as I have been spotting for up to a week leading up to AF. So the timing if is is odd because I should be around o time now. This is the first cycle in a while where I haven't been on clomid so I am thinking its just my body reacting to no drugs?! And honestly the spotting is nothing now, just some brown string ting when I wiped maybe twice over the weekend and then just now when I peed. Usually prem af spotting is totallly different and much heavier. Anyone else ever have this? Do you think I should call my Re?

Are you n Bcp? I am and I also started spotting during the time I would normally O, I called the dr and the nurse said its very common. It stopped 2 days later and haven't spotted since.

Hey ladies Im doing icsi on 3rd September and currently on a 3 month lupron injection and starting the daily injections 2 weeks before the 3 month injection runs out as I have severe endo had a big operation (laparotomy) in jan and been on BCP since with only 1 break to stop the endo coming back as it did after my first op.

 

[DancingDiva]

Hey ladies, just had a call with my nurse and I have an appointment tomorrow to get bloods done and start on metformin on CD20 and possibly starting Gonal F next week.

 

[tlm]

Oneof14, no BCP here! Just lupron on cd21 and then Menopur for stunning! I haven't had any spotting since Monday. I usually get sore boobs after O and that hasn't happened yet so.

Wanabe, I will be having my ER around the same time! It all depends on when AF shows up this cycle after doing lupron! Yay!! We can wait this out together!! What are you stunning with?

 

[septbride]

I think it just means that they start you on the Lupron mid-cycle instead of on CD1?

I think I am on long Lupron. What is luteal??

 

[Littlee49]

Hey ladies!! I just started my 4th round of IVF (1st time with RMA). A little history about me: husband and I both 28, TTC for 2 years (1yr on own). Diag with blocked tubes @ former RE had 2 failed IUIs, 2 fresh IVF cycles, 1 FET. 1st fresh BFP w/ twins lost @10 wks, FET BFN, 2nd fresh in April m/c...all unexplained. Switched RE's, just started stims mon for antagonist cycle with ICSI, PGD, and AH...this round HAS to work...right?!?! So nervous! Best wishes to all!!!!

You've been through so much -- I really hope this is your cycle! Which stims are you on and how are they treating you? May I ask what PGD stands for?

Good luck!

I am so glad I found this thread!:wave:

I will be doing regular ivf and start my Lupron injections on September 2nd. This will be my first try at ivf for my first child. Excited, nervous, scared...all those emotions.

I am on long protocol so after I get my period next week I will be starting BCPs and then doing all my testing like saline sono, etc.
