IVF/FET in Aug'13' - Aug'14' buddies wanted!!*13 BFP's!!**Updates on first page**

[Lucie73821]

Hi ladies, mind if I join? This will be our 3rd ivf. First was bfn, second ended in a rare double ectopic (both embryos implanted in my right tube). During the lap i had for the ectopic, the dr also discovered stage 2 endo, but he said he was able to remove it. We've also had one failed FET. We still have three frosties, but have decided to do a full cycle instead of another FET.

I'm scheduled to start BC with my Aug cycle, and I will have my baseline apt and start stims Sept 23. I'm excited to join you ladies!

Lucie - Hi We'll only be about a month apart in cycles! Sorry to hear that you had trouble with the first two

 

[sunshine8]

Looks like I am starting the BCP today. I'll take that until 8/24. Then once I start AF, I will start my meds!! ER is scheduled for 9/10!!! now we just need to pay for the cycle

Hello Chicka,

I think my IVF cycle very closely sync with yours. My ER is scheduled for second week of September. Don't know the exact dates will get the schedule coming Monday. Will be great to compare notes.

Hello to everyone else and oodles of good luck and baby dust.

Sunshine - Lots of baby dust to you too hun - fxd for this cycle x

Bundles - No we're not allowed to meet, any child that is born as a result of me sharing can find out about me when they are old enough and get in touch. I feel your pain about the injections not good, are the bruises from where the needle has gone in then? x

Chickadee - Yay! Not long now till ur stimming then? Def exciting times. Gosh ur cycles do sound confusing, bet ur glad the fs know whats what Least its all getting sorted no. 3 to be put back shows they want to give you the best chance which is great news x

Mish - The NHS waiting times are a joke hopefully though when u go private you get ur cycle quickly x

Gold - Do you have any idea yet of the meds you will be taking? x

Ababy - Its great that ur amh levels have increased, i think there is certain supplements to help but im not sure which. x

Lucy - Sounds like youve had a rough time of it hun fxd for this cycle though hun! x

Dovkav - thanks for that link! GL for your cycle x

How is everyone? & What r your next steps? xx

 

[Plex]

strange question for all who have had previous ivf - could you get all ur meds in ur fridge? Im kinda worrying that im gunna have to buy another one cos ours is an undercounter type xx

 

[Lucie73821]

Most of my meds actually didn't need to be in the fridge. The boxes were rather small, and didnt take up very much room.

 

[Plex]

Thank god for that!! lolol xx

 

[sammy1987xxx]

First injection tonight ladies I'm immensely worried now.
I'm sure I'm just being a baby. Hope everyone is ok today.
Plex only one of my meds has to go in the fridge. Even if they all did I got a bag with the meds and its by no means large and would fit on a shelf and be lots of room next to it
Xxx

 

[Plex]

Gl Sammy!! Id imagine the first is the worst hun Ur not a baby as im sure i'll be the same lol Its reassuring about the meds and fridge space - we can still have milk butter etc in that case then lol xx

Hi Everyone!

Starting IVF August..currently on BCP pills for the next 2 weeks then start injections in 3 weeks.

We have done 4 iui's-all failed and now onto 1st IVF. I have mild endo and my husband has low morphology. We will be doing IVF with ICSI.

Would love to hear as everyone progresses and wishing everyone the best of luck!

 

[Plex]

[sammy1987xxx]

Good luck hope.

[Plex]

havent got a clue as to meds for definate yet. Or as to where to store them. I do have a list of the standard donor meds which are - 2bottles of syranel or buserelin, 2 vials of pregnyl 5000iu and 24 ampules of menopur. Im hoping to have a clearer picture 2moro when the clinic emails me x

Hello Hope,

This will also be my first IVF . I will start my down reg 1 August, for 2-3 weeks depending on how I respond. We might be pretty close time-wise, will be great to compare notes.

My doctor suggested we skip the surgeries and go straight to IVF while I still have time on my side. He said that if we did remove them that there is a chance we could make things worse and he felt that since I responded so well with the lowest dose of Gonal-F that I would respond really well when they doubled or even tripled the dosage for IVF.

I guess I have a silly question. So can you have endometriosis in your uterus? I know the uterus has endometrial lining and endo is the result of that lining growing outside the uterus. What would cause your uterus to not be healthy for implantation?

ababy4us -that's a really good sign that you responded well to a low dose of Gonal-F! My Dr suggested that the lap surgery I had 2 years ago probably contributed to me having low ovarian reserve (but of course we will never know that for sure, it might be the endo as well or other reasons). As for endometriosis in your uterus, I guess technically it's not endometriosis because your uterus is designed to have those cells and bleed when you have AF? I thought endometriosis is when the cells are just found outside the uterus... hope you know what I mean?

Gold - Do you have any idea yet of the meds you will be taking? x

Plex - The stim drugs for our first IVF was Gonal-F, but for the second one we'll try Fostimon. Not sure what the downreg drugs will be, but I don't think that's important. I had 4 boxes of Gonal-F plus 2 little boxes of Pregnyl (trigger drug) in the fridge and it wasn't too bad! If you want to save space, you can always just put the Gonal-F pen in the fridge (since that contains the drug), then keep the boxes and the needles outside (since they don't need to be refrigerated!).

Everyone else - good luck to those who've started their IVF process!

 

[sammy1987xxx]

Plex let me know what they say when they email u xxx

 

[bundlesofjoy]

Hi plex yes the bruising is just where the needle has been put in . Hope they send you all the info you need tomorrow. For me the only thing that needed to be refrigerated was the gonal f and that was three box did not take up much space on on half a shelf

Hi lucie, dokva and gghope

I have never heard of green ivf so how do they down regulate you?

 

[Nearly2014]
