Far off but is anyone planning IVF/FET Oct/Nov time or waiting to start treatment?

Congrats on the transfer, Wannabe! What a beautiful embie!

I'm glad you caught the low progesterone issue. We are our own best advocates! Good for you, for calling the nurse.

The 15th can't come soon enough!

Eek. Wannabe. Love the pic of the embryo. Can't wait for the testing thread. Although I wouldn't mind some test porn in here. Lol

Wannabe congratulations on transfer! Glad you sorted your progesterone for yourself
And I agree, lots of testing porn, we can never see too many tests!

3c how is your headaches now with the simms? How was scan? Hope you're feeling better

Thanks for all of the support, good luck wishes and kind words girls! You girls are awesome!

I am just not feeling very positive this cycle!! One of my big pregnancy symptoms when I was pregnant with the twins and at the start of my chemical was really soar boobs! That hasn't happened yet! Than knowing my progesterone was low when the transfer was done, and with just the one embryo I am just not feeling it!!! Sigh!!! I am wondering how different this pregnancy will be though since it will be just one baby and no chance of twins this time if it works. I need to find some PMA! I am trying to hope for the best but be prepared for a BFN and think about what comes next if this doesn't work!! Ugghhh! this 2 WW sucks! Lord help me from loosing my mind these next few weeks!

I have to go get blood work on WEdnesday of this week but it is just to check progesterone and estrogen levels. I wish they were checking HCG but they won't do it that early. I'm hoping my progesterone levels are improved since increasing the vaginal progesterone though!

I will be sure to let you girls know when I start testing and share my testing thread with you guys so you can get your BFP porn! I also always update my journal and I have a link tothat in my siggy as well!

Don't get discouraged wannabe when I had my transfer they called me on my way home and told me my progesterone was low and upped my dose and I had a healthy Singleton pregnancy.

Hi Everyone, can I join? Just starting my IVF journey - initial diagnostic testing is all taking place within the next week starting tomorrow with my Day 3 U/S and bloodwork. FC everything checks out tomorrow and at next week's HSG test.

 

[lemon_tree]

Welcome, Cookie! Fingers crossed for good (and fast!) test results for you.

 

[Cookieb]

Thanks Lemon! I stalked your journal a bit - we're from the same parts! I just recently moved to northern RI from Norfolk MA - really out in the woods lol. I also have no Boston accent, but born and raised just outside the city. Also, I read you've been trying to go gluten free and are finding it difficult. I've been off gluten by choice for about 5 years! Just curious, is there a reason you're GF? (was it recommended for IVF?). Anyway, thanks for the well wishes and hoping for a successful upcoming cycle for you!

Thank you for the kind and encouraging words hun! Your story has given me hope! Do you remember what your progesterone numbers where when they were low?

Welcome everything

Thanks for cheering me on! So far just cramping! The last time when I was pregnant with the twins I had slight naseoua in the morning and really soar boobs! I am hoping some more symptoms kick in soon! I even had those symptoms with my chemical in the winter so I am hoping to get some more soon! That would help me feel more confident that this cycle has worked and that my progesterone has risen. I know it is still early so i am trying to stay positive! I think my IC's have really faint squinter lines so I am hoping they get darker soon! I am not sure if the FRER really has anything or if it is line eye though!

Welcome cookie, hope all goes well for next week's hsg

 

[Ellie Bean]

Wannabe I want to say that is like 18-19 maybe? Does that sound right? They upped my PIO dose from 1mL to 1.5mL starting the day of my transfer.

That could be right! They want a 20 or better. Mine was a 14.26. Thanks for sharing your story. My progesterone for my last FET cycle that was a chemical was a 20 on the day of my transfer so I am not sure why it wasn't as good this time around. Hopefully it won't matter and my BFP is just around the corner and my levels have increased since they had me increase my vaginal suppositories from 2 to 3 a day. I also do injections but in the ethyl oleate. I had an allergy to the sesame oil one. I wonder if the oil kind of lumps up in your behind if it helps your body hold onto the hormone longer? Maybe that was why? Just a theory!

How is stimming 3c?

Hi, Cookie! :wave: Thanks for popping in over there. Lots of food talk these days.

I'm trying to be gluten and dairy free right now, primarily as a personal exercise to see if it helps with my endometriosis. I've read some conflicting stuff but it seems that for some people, eliminating those and other types of food help reduce inflammation and therefore cramping and other pain and related endo symptoms. I figured I'd give it a shot in these few months before I can do IVF to help keep the endo at bay and as far away from my ovaries as possible. I'm not sure if it'll work but I don't see harm in trying for awhile - apart from my now constant cravings for cheese and baked goods.

Good luck at your first set of tests today!! How long until you see the initial results?
