Hi Everyone

I just got my IVF calendar for my first and hopefully only cycle... Little overwhelmed but hoping to learn a thing or 2 from you girls as I go along. My injections are on the way and should be here anyday. I started the BC protocol so thats pretty depressing... I feel strange taking that stuff when my goal all along was to be fertile!

scerena- sorry to hear you have another cold...pregnancy does lower your immune system. Take care hun!

[scerena]

Bma a matter of days until your FET how you feeling???

ttcbaby got everything crossed for you I really have

starlight brilliant news bet you cannot wait!!! Are you likely to get started on your next af???

 

[Bma11]

Yes ladies I'm so nervous and so excited. DH isn't able to make it, he will be working nights and will be sleeping and it's in the afternoon and the clinic is far like and hour. So, my mom and best friend will be going with me! We plan to eat a good breakfast and then go to my transfer! and I am going to be on strict bed rest for 3 days. Only getting up to use the restroom. Crazy! They specifically said no showers or baths. Lol so, gotta get face wipes and hygiene wipes as well!

 

[scerena]

Bma Glad your mum and best friend can go with you

So crazy how different clinic have different rules isn't it!!! I had showers daily, no bed rest (well rested as was sore but not bed rest) it's just weird why we all get different advise- I was told to return back to Normal, yet in the states a lot of people are recommended to best rest...
I got straight up after transfer and pee'd too!

My personal opinion is I don't think anything makes a difference, if the embies are going to stick then they will- like in a natural cycle we don't change anything- but you have to take your clinics advise

How exciting though after all this wait you will be PUPO

 

[Bma11]

Scerena- it is crazy how the clinics and doctors are so different. Oh well, I look forward to it though lol

 

[scerena]

bma it's a good thing you get to rest though can't wait for you to get your bfp how many embies will you have transferred???

 

[Bma11]

Scerena we are transferring 2!!

 

[scerena]

bma yay double the chance and maybe even twins

I posted this question in another thread too sorry for being redundant.. I just noticed on my calendar that the doc has me down for 150 IU of Puregon and 150 IU of Menogon. I dont have PCOS or any other issues ovulating that we have found. Last month I had 19 potential follies on an unmedicated cycle so I am concerned is this going to cause hyperstimulation?

These are normal medications for an IVF cycle. They will monitor you quite often in hopes of not hyperstimulating you. Trust your doctor. A lot of the time the written plan isn't exactly what they go with. It all depends on your hormones from you baseline ultrasound and bloodwork appointment. Breathe... it'll be alright, they know what they are doing
