yay fun! there's quite a few of us on this thread now, how exciting!!
Hi Ms.TX!! I haven't been given my IVF schedule yet so Im not sure what it holds for me, but hopefully they will let me know early next week. Ive got 2 more weeks on BCP.
not looking forward to having sore BB's, I had an issue on the gonal F (for petes sake) with 2 of the montgomery glands on my nips got REALLY sore (not fun) from the elevated prolactin. (I think thats what they said it was from) it was nasty. yowch.
hope yours get better soon!
(beware in the shower, that can be SORE when the water hits em!!)
amylou- YEA to your lucky number 3, Ive got major hopes for you!! maybe you will make a bunch more eggs too and it wont be so stressful. may I ask how many you retrieved the first time?
I hear you about the twins. I am scared of that too. Im not a big person and I know 4 women who all got pg with twins, one of them lost one and 2 of them had the babies SO prematurely (26 and 28 weeks) that they weren't even sure they would all make it.
it was heartbreaking to watch... (not to mention all 4 of them are million dollar babies by the time they left the hospital- YIKES!)
SO.... Im scared of it for sure. but Im also scared to not take the chance. thats what my friend told me yesterday (who lost one twin) she said she wouldnt have done it any other way- whatever works but I cant help but be worried for their health...
but then again, just cause you put 2 in doesnt mean 2 will take right?
so the Dr initially told you only 1... thats what my Dr is telling me.
I tell you, its keeping me up at night.
I would take whatever I would get obviously but its hard.
but you know what IS nice, the idea that you have all your children in one go, instant complete family! and twins are such special people too... what an amazing bond to have in your family.
I think since you have already tried doing one at a time, that 2 is a good progression to make.
g3mz, hi! an egg sharer? cool! like you will be donating some of your eggs? that's wonderful!
I always thought if I got a zillion of them I would do that but I just hope there are like 3 or 4 good ones!!!
but what a wonderful thing to do! kudos!
oneof14- welcome! glad to have you here! I hope there are a lot of happy bump stories at the end of this cycle for all of us
