Clomid round 3 anyone else?

[star25]

Checked the other name and it's cetrotide and that one I have to mix myself, checked the protocol again and it's :

CD1-5 gonal f pen daily
CD5- egg collection gonal f pen and cetrotide
36 hours before egg collection- hcg trigger
Day off egg collection- start progesterone daily )
Day of transfer- buserelin injection ( they say it has been proven to increase chances of success)

What with all that, the scratch and the embryoscope and 8 weeks of vitamin drinks I can do no more!

Could have got a bit of that wrong like the progesterone start day as might be egg collection day but I'll have to check!

How is everyone else?

Im out : witch : arrived. ..

 

[star25]

Sorry Danni, hope your feeling ok

 

[cntrygrl]

Star-- I think you have it right with the progesterone. You start it after.

Danni-- Sorry the evil arrived

 

[star25]

Checked again and the progeaterone is after egg collection

 

[Noele0002]

Star- Wow that is a lot to remember but I am sooooo excited for you You don't start those meds for two cycles yet, right? What day are you having the scratch? How are the shakes you have been drinking?

Dannixo- Sorry the witch showed sending you hugs!

AFM- CD 7 and have another week until my follie scan. So nothing exciting going on here.

Cntrygrl- Hope you are doing well! How is the nursery coming along?

 

[cntrygrl]

We just have some edging to finish and it will be all painted. So painting will probably be completely done tonight.

 

[star25]

Thats right noele, should have af in 2 weeks and then start ivf on af after that one, have got the scratch this Fri then start the drinks on this day, just more waiting at the mo!

Are you on meds this cycle before iui?

Bet your nursery is gorgeous cntrygrl )

 

[Noele0002]

Star- So technically you only have 1 1/2 cycles until the big ivf cycle I took Femara again 5mg days 3-8. My follie scan is next Monday so exactly a week from now.

Cntrygrl- It would be cool to see pics after it is all done

 

[cntrygrl]

I'll definitely post pics when it's all done.

Bummer!! I just found out our IUI is cancelled for this month Apparently the clinic is out of the 'IUI kits' that they use and they were expecting a shipment of them but they were just informed by the company that the order is back ordered and won't get them until the beginning of next month. So we are just doing trigger and TI this month. Also, next month we can't do IUI because dh and I are going on a 8 day vacation and it lines up right with my expected ovulation week. So we will be waiting until September... And truthfully I don't even know if September will work because I will be back in school full-time and working full-time. Yikes. This sucks. I guess DH and I will just have to play it by ear...

 

[star25]

Hoping I have shortish cycles so could be 6-7 weeks!

 

[star25]

Didnt see your post noele, thats really bad of the clinic and unfair!
You still have the meds tho and ti so have everything crossed for you, I'm annoyed for you tho!

 

[Noele0002]

I know!! I don't understand how that can happen but then again it is not a fertility clinic so I know I can't have my expectations too high and I don't. I'm just bummed because we have to miss August because of our vacation so now it's two months we have to miss. Oh well. I am thinking about making an appointment with a fertility clinic this fall even though I already know dh and I can't afford it... I just want to have the initial consultation to go over financial stuff so that dh and I can plan for it. All the knowledge of financial stuff has been just an estimation and obviously I don't know what a specialist will recommend. Maybe they won't think we need IVF and will just try injectibles and IUI or something along those lines and then we won't have to wait so ling to save up. I at least just want to hear what a specialist thinks... Or do you guys think it's better to save up the money first then go see a specialist? I don't know what to do. I know I could afford to pay for the initial visit and maybe some of the testing but treatments I'd probably have to save for at least a couple months anyways...

 

[cntrygrl]

Noele-- Ugh that is really crappy. Hope it all works out for you though.

Star-- Hoping for a short cycle for you.

 

[star25]

I would see the specialist noele then take it from there, at least then u know what your aiming for and anyway you might not need to!

 

[cntrygrl]

Here are some pictures of his room. We got the crib put together last night. Working on the dresser and changing table tonight.

 

[Noele0002]

Thanks Cntrygrl & Star!

Cntrygrl- So exciting have you picked out a color scheme or some kind of pattern theme yet? Looks like so much fun!

AFM- So weird... Yesterday and the day before I had a ton of ewcm (not too weird but I normally don't get much on medicated cycles) Then today I started my opks for this cycle (today is CD 9) it was a super dark positive! My temp went up a tiny bit today too but we all know my temps are not reliable. With the PCOS I have gotten false positives before but they have been been this positive. Also, the false positives have never been matched up with ewcm. I wonder if I am actually ovulating early of if my body just geared up for it? Always something! Lol Know I am kicking myself a little bit though because dh and I were going to start bding every other night starting last night but we were both too tired and decided we would start tonight. Hopefully it is just a false alarm.

Noele- The crib bedding set we picked out has elephants along with the blue & grey. Our theme is mainly elephants which is funny because I found out afterwards they are actually on Jay's family crest.

 

[Noele0002]

Oh fun! I LOVE the elephant theme! That's awesome
