Calling all RMA Ladies (1st page updates)

Just got back from RMA for follicle scan. I have 3 follicles, right now CD 12 they are 13, 14 and 15mm in size. I believe I have two on the left and one on the right, not sure though although I don't think it matters which side they are on. Dr wants to do another scan on Thursday and then IUI either Friday or Saturday, not really sure which yet. I'm happy I have three, they look very good and he said my lining looks great, so grow follicles grow!

That sounds very promising ash! Keep us posted on when your IUI's will be. Fingers crossed for you!

Kins- Have a great time in Mexico! So jealous
 
YAY ASH!!! That's awesome!! Good luck!!

I just got home from my IFV consult... And today was my lucky day the dr said. Seems there's a study going on for IFV and I qualify for it. I am only going to do one part of it though because my insurance covers IFV treatments and I don't want to take the spot of someone who has no coverage for this. My part is going to be for the freezing of the embryos.. they are going to take half and freeze at a certain temperature and the other freeze at another teperature and take the best from each and implant 2..they will also do the biopsies and they will be implanted on day 5 or 6 at the blacocyst stage. I'm very excited. I have another appointment with my nurse next Tuesday for DH and I to do all of out paperwork and genetic blood work, they are going to put me on bcp for 2 weeks, lupron and the gonal f.. ER should be in June she said which is good because the lab closes down for June and July and I'd have to wait until August..or something to that effect...don't quote me on that because I was a little overwhelmed with all the information coming at me especially being alone since DH is on a business trip!!
 
Jersey, thats SO exciting! I have my IVF consult on Thursday to discuss our protocol. Dr. Morris told me about the lab closing in July, so they dont take on any new patients during that time, only ones that are in active cycles, so after surgery (Lap on 5/21) right when I get my AF (in early june) we start the process so we will only be a few short weeks apart!

Ahh so I'm not that crazy Jchic, thank you for clearing that up for me :flower:

We will defninitely be close on this journey!! I'm excited!! Please let me know how you make out!!
 
YAY! :happydance::happydance:

Great news, so they will just switch everything to NJ office? Maybe we will see eachother at Morristown for morning monitoring if it's a weekend during our IVF cycle!
 
good luck!


just scheduled my hsg and my nutritionist appointment. Can't wait for all the testing to be done!
 
Yeah, she was great! Kudos to Jchic for the referral.

Not sure of the timing of my cycle anymore, as my protocol is likely to change somewhat. We are waiting on my amh level to make a final decision on which protocol to do. I may stick with Lupron, or she might switch me to antagonist. It sounded like she wants me to start earlier though than later, so less time on bcp. Yay! Will have more info on protocol and timeline in a few days.
 
I have to say, I hate the two week wait :)

I had my 3 dpiui blood test, my progesterone was 10.2, they said this was in the normal range but I have also read for medicated cycles they expect it higher. :/

Now I wait, I go in on Mothers Day weekend to get a pregnancy blood test. It is either going to be a good weekend or a bad weekend. Here's hoping its good!

Trying don't worry about progesterone, they test it so early at RMA that I think it always seems low. Mine is always super low and I have to use suppositories...ugh hate them!
 
Dukey - who is your nurse? Mine is Adrienne and she responds LIGHTING fast, especially by email!
 
Mine is Lauren, who seemed great. I have heard great things about Adrienne from other people too...
 
2nd scan tomorrow morning, I hope my follicles are ready. They're also going to run some genetic tests to make sure that me and DF are compatible and won't have babies with genetic disorders ... scary!
 
Jchic, I will be doing monitoring in West Orange I think - it's only 10-15 minutes away, as opposed to 30 minutes+ to Morristown.

The one other thing I am happy about the switch is that I am way more comfortable with the idea of a easy peasy 30 minute car trip after ER and transfer, than dealing with getting home from the city and navigating crazy taxi drivers.
 
Just stopping by to wish everyone luck. I'm lonely on the 1st page as the only BFP & i want some company soon :)

The twins are doing good, they're measuring the right size & have nice strong heartbeats. I am going crazy not being able to tell the news yet but it won't be long. I feel really lucky to have not gotten any morning sickness yet. I do miss rma as i have been discharged.
 
Had my second follicle scan today and it turns out I have 3 follicles, 17,18 and 22mm ready to go. They gave me the ovidrel shot before we left and we have to be there tomorrow at 10AM for the IUI. Well DF has to be there sooner but IUI is at 10. I'm feeling good, pretty positive at this point, so we'll see what happens :)
