Ttcne that sounds positive about the job, and good luck with the FS appt let us know what they say.
Kaylakin I think the short protocol is used for both those expected to be poor responders *and* very good responders i.e. those with a risk of OHSS. God knows how they work it out..
Based on my first FSH test they were lining me up for short protocol as they thought FSH was high indicating a problem with ovarian reserve. Then once I had the AMH test and baseline scan, they said the FSH must have been an anomaly as everything else indicated fine reserve and so they switched me to long protocol instead.
Basically I think there are many different ways they can do it. I seem to be on quite a small number of drugs (from today, just one each for the DR + Stimming) whereas other people are on lots of different things at once. I hope that's not because I'm on some kind of no frills state-funded treatment but just about the clinician's own preferences and the fact that we are all unique

psp2011- I've been thinking about you all day!! What'd they say??
Adanma- I'm so glad you got 2! But, I really can't believe they didn't discuss more with you prior to making big decisions. Well, PUPO with 2 anyways, right!
Ttcne- I'm glad your interview went well! I hope you get the job!
Kaylakin- I took Cetrotide for an antagonist. I started it day 6 & took it for 7 days. I had some little side effects from it, but it wasn't too bad.
AFM- My clinic called today & they did ICSI on 7 out of the 8 retrieved eggs & all 7 fertilized. I'm glad the numbers are higher than originally anticipated. I hope that's a testament to how the whole process is going to be. I'll hear again tomorrow how they're doing & will know if they're going to have me do a 3 or a 5 day transfer. I'm happy, but oh so scared.
Hope everyone else is doing well!!
Just a quick update, will try to get on at work tonight! They finally called and 5 of the 7 that were mature fertilized! I'm happy with that! Still on track for tues transfer so I'm hoping for 3 but would be happy with one strong one!
Amor, wow, u did great with 7! Got me beat! Lol! I wish mine would update me sooner but won't call again until Monday!
Morning Ladies,
OMG BFP!!!!!!
