IUI/IVF Aug/Sept/Oct/November

[Springy]

hi ladies :wave:

well i POAS and it was positive i have the blood test thursday to confirm!

AMAZING NEWS!!!!!!!! Can't wait to hear if its one bean or two!!!

 

[PCOSMomToTwo]

yes ive heard people say the pee'ed the shot out

Your body will break down the HCG trigger shot and yes it will be disposed through your urine.

The only reason you need the injection is to trigger your brain to ovulate. Once you inject the HCG, it has done it's job. It is completely normal for it to pass thru your urine.

Yes in that sense you "pee" it out - 99.9% of all drugs are broken down and metabolized and discarded via urine and/or feces.

It's the same principle as to why you use urine to detect if you're pregnant or not - b/c the hCG shows up in your urine.

Hi girls even though no one really talks to me i just wanted to an update i took my first pregnyl today it wasnt as bad as i thought. i also am feeling something going on the right.
i have a question though sorry if tmi but can you p the hcg out i dont wanna do that?

Sorry you are feeling this way MrsDavis It is not intentional I usually can't remeber what is on the last page my mind has been like a seive with the meds Sounds like you are having an IUI soon? Good luck!

 

[SquirrelGirl]

Yeah, mrsdavis -- sooo not intentional! We're all so hopped up on hormones it's hard to remember ANYTHING! I struggle to even remember what day of the week or even month it is anymore!

When people POAS to see if the HCG is still in their system, I think it's generally about 10 days until HPTs will no longer pick up the trigger shot. So, if you don't want to POAS every day, it's best to wait til at least 10DPO to test with an HPT so you don't get a false positive.


I've got my ultrasound appt tomorrow to see how they follies are coming along. Hope everything's going well and far enough to where we can do the IUI thursday or friday. I really don't want to have to go back for repeat ultrasounds. Just means more work I have to take off. And I'm sure people are starting to wonder why the heck I'm out so much ....

 

[Snowbunny]

Good luck Squirrelgirl. I totally know what you mean about the work thing. I try so hard to get early appointments but it's not always possible. Hope those follies move along.

Sorry MrsDavis - totally not intentional. It gets difficult to keep track of everyone and all the stuff we have going on with ourselves.

 

[SquirrelGirl]

Unfortunately, my FS is in a different city than where I live or work. AND they don't do appointments til 9 and their last one is at 3. So I get screwed no matter when my appointment is. I work 7 to 4:15 Grrrrrr. It's like their clients are there for the doctor's convenience, not the other way around. But I have no other options.

Oh wow! 9AM is so late. How are you handling the time off? I'm not sure what I would do. Other than cycle day 3 scans they start at 7AM. I live/work an hour away so as long as I'm out by 715am and I speed...lol...I can get to work by 8am.

Good luck tomorrow Squirrel! FX for some nice big follies I am always amazed by you ladies who have to travel so far to see your Dr's it must add to the stress of it all. We are so spoiled to have our Dr a 10 minute drive from our house and he does early hours so I can have my scans done before work. Too bad all specialist's aren't so accommodating

 

[PCOSMomToTwo]

Good luck Squirrel!!! Come on big follies, no whammies, no whammies .... STOP BIG FOLLIES !!!!!



Oh boy, I'm showing my age!

My doctor's office ONLY does scans and blood work from 7:15-8:00am. I work 2 days a week, and my shift starts at 7:00 am sharp.

My husband leaves for work at 6:30 am everyday and is therefore, is unable to help with childcare. My children start school at 9:00.
And, it's a one hour drive each direction.
It's a logistical nightmare!!

I actually had to tell my mom that I'm doing IUI (again!) and ask for her help. In all honesty, it was almost like I had to ask for her permission. If she couldn't help me, I wouldn't be able to do it. I'm not going to pack up the kids at 6:00am, drive 1 hour, have a scan, drive 1 hour back, and drop them off at school. I'd have to wake them up at 5:00 am just to go to the fertility doctor.

Could you imagine what they would tell their teachers, lol!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE that show! So wish it was still on!

ready -- wow, that would be really tough! I wish there were more FS/REs in the world and they would provide the best service they could in order to attract clients. But when there are so few, and they know you have to go there because of insurance.... well. Anyway, I'm glad I have insurance coverage, so I really shouldn't complain.

 

[asa9841]

I have my ultrasound Thursday, praying for big healthy follies!

 

[Touch the Sky]

My RE is 10 mins from my office, so i do all my appts on my lunch break. i'm always out and back within an hour. didn't realize how lucky i was!

Just rub it in

My RE office is 108 miles round trip from my house. I love driving there JUST for blood work or an ultrasound.

As a total side note: Gas: $3.50/gallon & my car gets 20mpg ... it costs me about $18 in gas just to see my RE.

PHEW! OK, so it's not just me. I can't remember who said what or when. I'm constantly afraid I'll congratulate someone on a BFP when they just got their AF.

P.S. Good Luck Squirrel!

 

[Touch the Sky]

Not to rub it in pcos, but I own a prius.. 40mpg baby! Lol
