IVF - For those in January?? (Nov. is long gone!)

[Wanna_b_a_mom]

I had a short period after BC's too. I am getting so nervous/excited, been trying to eat lots of protein...but my eggs tasted nasty this morning.... thinking it is all the HCG. No food or drink after midnight tonight - I am to arrive at the surgery center at 6am

Not sure if we will be a day 3 or 5 transfer, they monitor daily and call me so just depends on how my little eggies look on day 2.

I can't believe we bought twice as much Gonal F as we needed...I guess they were just trying to make sure I had enough since this is my first round.

Good luck!!! Let us know how it went. .

Okay I have a question... What does everyone do for sedation during the retrieval?? I had twilight with my first 2 IVF's where I didn't feel anything and was in and out. It went well both times. The new clinic I am at does full sedation. I am really anxious about it. I had a D&C back in 2008 and I just didn't do well being totally out. Now I am nervous for the retrieval.

ILuvbabies- They are doing twilight for me. If you have concerns tell them and see if they'll do twilight.

PCOSmom- That's awesome!

Jamer- I hope everything is going well. Rest up afterwards

AFM- started the menopur, and wow does it sting. I now miss the Gonal . Last night was my first dose of orgalutran (thought it was centrotide) and that was fine. I'm not too uncomfortable, I guess because I'm used to huge cysts . Have a good rest of the weekend everyone!

Good luck this morning Jamer! Hope it goes well

PCOSMom - Congrats on getting a date for your FET!! So exciting

Iluv - I am going to be fully sedated too. I don't mind that though since it doesn't bother me too much (then again, I have only been fully sedated twice in my life).

 

[JaniceT]

Wow ladies, good luck with your Stims, EC and ET!! Sticky Dust to all of you!

 

[JamerC77]

Thanks for the well wishes!!

Went well, really fast - the twilight felt like the greatest nap EVER. I have slight cramps and tiny bit of bleeding, but overall am feeling great... waiting for the call to tell me how many eggs they got .... biting my nails!

 

[ttcfurrever]

JamerC- So glad to hear that it went well. Praying for lots of eggs for you too dear! How many will you transfer? OMG, you're gonna be pupo soon


Katie- What meds will you be on?


AFM- I take back what I wrote earlier. I'm now terribly bloated and uncomfy . I also seem to be having an abundance of ewcm, and REALLY want to , but was advised against . That sucks because I know I'll be scared to during the 2ww as well. Guess I'll have to sneak it in between ER and ET

I even video taped myself LOL .... I "may" have dropped a few curse words ... thank goodness the audio didn't work!

 

[ILuvBabies200]

JamerC-I am so sorry hon!

PCOSMomToONe-How in the heck did you it?!?! I would much rather do it myself than yell at dh. Those shots hurt like hell! Hahaha on cursing!!!

Me-Doubled my Glucophage tonight. I'm still having side effects from the 1 pill so I'm sure 2 is gonna be no fun at all. Water sono and mock transfer is Wednesday! Also will get my calendar! Wahoo!!!

I'm gonna ask and see. They mentioned full sedation so not sure they will do anything else.

 

[JamerC77]

2 Eggs fertilized! Waiting for the call back from my coordinator to see if we will have a 3 or 5 day transfer...

It wasn't too difficult actually. I did my 2nd one this morning in the opposite hip ... I am SHOCKED at how easy it is! It's pretty painLESS too! I wish I didn't worry so much over it, because it's not worth the worry! This is coming from a girl who HATES needles and used to pass out everytime I got a shot.


Good luck with your appts girly!
