Just found out that DH's paternal grandma is in the hospital. She went in today for cold symptoms and they diagnosed pneumonia and then lung cancer. After that she went septic. They're not sure if she'll make it through the night. I am so worried about her and can't even imagine how scared she must be right now (if she is still alert). She's such a cool person and this is just so out of the blue. Having a little trouble wrapping my head around it. Thoughts and prayers are really appreciated right now.

Buny - What an awful shock for u both, Im sending u lots of hugs xxx

 

[flagirlie7]

Plex and all,

Talked to nurse, got my financing in order. We are signing consent forms this Tuesday where I am hoping to ask my doc tons of questions. Injection class is on 16th. As far as my timing, the plan is to get my AF around 10th (on Provera now) and official date for lupron start is 19th!

 

[JessicaG121]

Oh Buny, I'm so sorry to hear. A very similar thing happened to my uncle, though he had a couple months to put his affairs in order.

Flagirlie, are you doing a long protocol?

In theory, I just took my last Stims! Thank goodness. I'm so tired of the needles.

 

[Disneyfan88]

Good luck, Disney. I'm so excited for you!

Thanks!! Best of luck with your retrieval! I'm really pulling for you!

I had my second scan today, after 8 days of Stims. Still only 5 follicles, ranging from 13-19. Those are growing nicely, but the 5 little ones from Wednesday are still little. I spoke briefly to he doctor. After my E2 comes in this afternoon, we will decide why to do. Either another day or 2 of Stims or trigger tonight & collect what I've got. It just doesn't seem like enough. I'm so frustrated.

I didn't get many eggs from either of my retrievals (5 mature from the first, and 6 mature from the second). We got lucky and had 4 make it to 5/6 day blasts both times. Your trigger shot should help the stragglers that are close catch up by ER, so hopefully you will get some extras.

Buny, I'm so sorry about your DH's grandma. Prayers and best wishes.

so sorry buny, there is nothing worse than a sudden out of the blue illness like that, there is never enough time to come to terms with the situation. Praying for your grandma xxx

 

[Samsfan]

Disney- Very excited for you and sending good vibes your way!

Bunyhuny- Keeping your grandma in my prayers. Hope things turn around.

AFM- Went for my third sono. It looks like I only have one good egg right now. One on the right at 15 mm. I have another on the left at 11mm and 2 other too small around 10mm. I may have to switch to an IUI. I'm so worried. I'm on 6th day of stims, started ganirelex today and this is my second IVF. Feel gutted

 

[Prayerful]

Disney, it seems like time went so fast... I can't believe you'll be doing transfer in just 11 days!! Good luck!

Megan, Sekky, and ababy - Are you having any symptoms yet? I've been feeling nauseous after eating but it could just be the OHSS. Trying not to get my hopes up.

Praying for your family Buny!

Flagirl - How exciting!!

Congrats Jessica! When is your ER?

Samsfan - The 11mm should catch up in just a couple days. When do you have to decide IUI vs IVF? What did your doc recommend?

 

[JessicaG121]

Hi ladies! Good to hear how well everyone is doing.

I had what should be my final scan this morning. My follicles must have been replaced by magic beans last night. Today, I had 8 measuring over 14, the largest was 25+. That's three more than yesterday, with some of them growing 6mm+ in 24 hours! hopefully, a few stragglers will catch up with the trigger. I'd love to get 10.

Hey buddy. Well I have been cramping on and off. Caved in today and told DH to buy me frer. So I may poas soon . Monday or Tuesday

 

[Samsfan]

Jessica- wow!!!! that's great news... what did you do differently from the last sono??? I need to know...

Sekky- be patient...you will know soon enough

Prayerful- I emailed my doc, he wants to do the next sono himself. I'm so relieved and I guess we will go from there.

How are you doing?

Magic beans indeed!!!! Love it!!!

My lining check today went well. Ovaries are quiet and the cysts are gone. My doctor is happy that my lining at almost at 9. Still waiting for my bloodwork to come back, but I'm pretty much cleared to proceed with our plan for ET on October 10. I can't wait for that to get here!

We decided that we are going to transfer one embryo. Assuming that it survives the thaw process, we will be transferring the best quality one (5AA). We don't have a preference gender-wise and aren't picking based on that, but our PGS results enable us to know going in that this one is a girl.

Exciting not long left till ur ET now - glad the cysts have gone down2 . Its good you get the chance to decide how many u put back, where i am I get no choice they have a single embryo transfer policy. Its crazy to think that if ur cycle goes to plan and is successful u'll already know the gender of ur lil babba xx

AFM- Went for my third sono. It looks like I only have one good egg right now. One on the right at 15 mm. I have another on the left at 11mm and 2 other too small around 10mm. I may have to switch to an IUI. I'm so worried. I'm on 6th day of stims, started ganirelex today and this is my second IVF. Feel gutted

Keeping my fingers crossed that those smaller follies do the catching up thats needed hun will u know at ur next u/s whether ur converting to iui? xx

 

[Samsfan]

Plex- My Dr. agreed to do the sono tomorrow. So we will decide after the numbers come back. My doctor is aggressive, my guess is if he can wait for the others to catch up he will wait.

Where is your clinic? I have rarely heard of a one embryo place. My place permits 3 or more within certain age limits and requirements. So excited for you!

[JessicaG121]

Ummm. Lets see. I took 2 naps and ate a steak.

I'm triggering at 0430. I'm not thrilled about the time, but excited to trigger. I'm thrilled that my follicles are growing and prayerful that they are healthy. My doc was there today, he wanted to see first hand. I'll see him again tomorrow for pre op.

Have they upped ur doseage to help? I really hope the others catch up for u do u get a refund if u convert to iui? How r u feeling about it all?
Im in the UK and here they only allow a maximum of 2 embryos transferred if under 35 - i just qualify for that lol but they're trialing a new SET policy in a few areas and where I am got the short straw! As under 35's only get one put back. Im hoping though if mine arent good quality then I get 2 put back. I dont know if i sound silly when i say that i would prefer 2 put back anyway as im scared it wont work xx
