Calling all RMA Ladies (1st page updates)

[jchic]

Jersey! Yes, I completely agree....all three of us better have 3 BFP announcements soon!

 

[DaisyQ]

Yes triggering tonight. Still toying with the idea of triggering a tad early, maybe 8:30 or 9:30 tonight. Not sure yet. Honestly though I think the latest I will trigger is 10:30.

 

[jerseygirl412]

Good luck ladies with the IUI's Positive thoughts, and hopefully no stress!!

Daisy I had to take my trigger shot at exactly 9 PM the night before, since I had a 9 AM appointment they said 12 hours before the IUI. I'm feeling pretty good after this IUI only had slight cramping yesterday, completely gone now compared to last month's IUI

 

[DaisyQ]

Did you do two, or just the one at 12 hours post trigger?

 

[jchic]

I think triggering at 9-10pm is good. I triggered last night at 9.

 

[DaisyQ]

Yeah. If I trigger at 9, the IUIs will be... 14.5 and 37.5 hours post trigger. Ayeyayaye.

 

[jchic]

I think thats good - you are covering your bases

 

[jerseygirl412]

I just had the one Ovidrel trigger on Monday night at 9 PM before the 1st IUI on Tuesday. I just figure they know what they're doing and hopefully it works this time!!

Good luck Ladies! I am of course expecting 3 BFP's to be announced very shortly! I know it is stressful thinking about the timing of everything, but just try to remember that RMA has very good stats and they know what they are doing so you have to try and trust them! I know it's easier said then done but no more stressing!

 

[DaisyQ]

Ok, ok, ok. I wish I knew what RMA NY stats are for iui but I think they only publish IVF success rates.

Hi Blue...I hope we all get them too!! I trust them, they're the experts, if I keep thinking about timing I'll drive myself nuts!!

 

[jchic]

I trust RMA too, but I do get nervous, which is normal! I am PRAYING this works....for all of us.
When do you go for your beta Jersey?

Very nerve wracking the whole process....and I'm one who perfers instant gratification so if there was a way to immediately find out I'd be so happy lol!!
I have to go for blood work this Saturday and the beta on the 17th...such a long long wait

 

[jchic]

I hear that! I go on Monday for b/w, tomorrow for #2 IUI and then on the 20th for a beta. Did the trigger shot give you headaches? I am BEYOND a headache...its constant!

 

[jerseygirl412]

Good luck tomorrow for the 2nd IUI!! No headaches for me, last time the Ovidrel, pregnancy symptoms, cramping, sore and swollen bbs. This time, no cramping, the bbs just a little tender not like last month. Could the headaches be from the other meds?

 

[DaisyQ]

Interesting... I don't go for bloodwork or a beta. Maybe no bloodwork since I am taking progesterone (why bother testing if it's ok, if I'm already supplementing). And I just take a hpt, no beta. I wonder if this is to keep lab costs down.

 

[jchic]

It may be from the follistim pen. Its CONSTANT headaches. I am literally living off of advil and tylenol, lol
Thanks! Fingers crossed it goes well. Where in NJ are you from?

Dukes - I am not on the progesterone so I think that is why they test, to make sure levels are ok....then a beta. I am tempted to test before then, BUT I didnt last month and it was better, since I always get SO down when I see a BFN. Do you monitor early in the AM in the city too? Its brutal!

 

[jerseygirl412]

Maybe it is to keep lab costs down... I'm covered under the insurance I only have a co-pay when I have my IUI, no co-pay for bloodwork, they do all the labs in house at the PA...which is a big help. My progesterone levels were really good last month I didn't need to take any supplements, that's my Saturday test, I didn't even get a chance to go in for Beta last IUI period came 5 days before.

Jchic, I'm a jerseygirl living in PA, moved here almost 8 years ago! I'm originally from north Jersey near Rutherford, they told me no Advil, only Tylenol but I usually live off of Advil myself I should invest stock in that!!

 

[marie44]

Looks like it could be twins! My u/s showed 2 sacs! They can't confirm until they detect 2 hbs which should be next week. I guess dh knew all along. GL with all of the iuis this week! I hope you all get you your bfps!
