IVF May/June/July 2015, Lets Get Ready!

[Kat_F]

Huge congrats Mrs L

Waiting i was sore for days after my ec it really is no fun at all right?

Hope sounds like you have some options. What is PGD? For me i never had any luck with frosties so i was happy with fresh.

Betty sorry you are feeling so yuck yay to your wonderful embies growing so strong.

Renae I'll probably go another stimm in August if you want to add me to that section on the home page ext to you x.

Does anyone know about using frozen sperm? My DH might be away in August so might have to be a frozen sample but I don't know how that works...

 

[MrsL4]

hope- agreed! there are way too many decisions to be made during IVF and infertility that many people will never even consider!!! i hope you are able to settle on a decision! I'm not much help!

 

[N8ie]

Hope- all the best, try to stay positive. What's PGD?

Waiting- I'm currently on 3dp5dt my doctor said I'm having a beta on the 30th of June so I'm waiting, patiently and praying that my babies stick.

 

[N8ie]

Anyone else on the progesterone suppositories/ pessaries? I'm on it and am exhausted most of the time, my breasts have gotten bigger and my nipples become so hard and sensitive (TMI, I'm sorry) and I'm overeating (hope it's a good sign). For the first two days after the transfer I had cramps but now I'm better. I'm nauseous this morning. I think these hormones are playing games with me. Any help or answers will be appreciated

Hope - if you only. Have 4 on day 4aybe they will be less tmro ? I would defo take a shot at fresh ! And then if it's doesn't work you can try again that's my opinion though!

How are old are you ? Why you wanting to do pgd ?

 

[bettybee1]

N8- high hormone levels can cause all those sypmtoms !! If you are pregnant it will carry one probaly ! Cx

Betty - Thanks, I'm 39 and had 6 early losses in the last 4 years so RE recommended PGD to test for chromosomal issues which may be causing the miscarriages. How are you feeling today?

 

[bettybee1]

Okay so I guess you could do with having it done then what have you decided ?

Am not feeling quite as sick but still extremely bloated which is not good pick up that medication today hopefully that will help can't belive its nearly a week and I still feel like this !!! X

 

[bettybee1]

Well ladies I've been shopping today with children which feels like a step in right direction still awfully distended but not as sick let's hope it's going! Picked the carberline up bloody 41 pound if you ask me the clinc should Provide that stuff


Anyway embryologset phoned I've got the 3 frozen from yesterday the others made it but wasn't good enough too freeze hmmm always annoys me this because I bet they keep them ! And freeze for them selfs !!! Always iffy subject !

 

[PecksTTC]

Congrats MrsL!!! That is amazing news. It is awesome to hear some positive stories.

Betty I know your pain... My bloat was exactly the same.

Hope... If you transfer you may still end up with a frozen that could be used for another cycle. We have done FET and the wait is absolutely killing me.

AFM - it turned out last week I had no O'd yet so doc sent me away. We think I did on Tuesday and we went back on Friday for the scratch. It was sore but nothing worse that a normal monthly cramp. The worst part was the focus the RE had on my nether regions. Normally he is so quick and really does not look much down there. This was about 10 minutes of quality time.
So now I wait for my FET cycle to begin!!

 

[ttcbaby117]

Wow betty feel better....I hope the meds work!

Fxed for you N8

Hope - tough decision hun, I know you will do what is right. Good luck.

Pecks - You are well on your way! I know what you mean about the scratch. My regular OBgyn passed away and I have to go to this new guy for my scratch. I am nervous about it because I have never been to him. LOL. My RE is a flight away so it is just cheaper to have it done here. Oh well, I must get over it. Once I get pregnant he will have to be down there monitoring me anyway....at least that is what I keep saying.

 

[KrissyB]

Two weeks to go!
Does anyone here have endometriosis - or more specifically any endometriomas?
I'm a little anxious about going in for monitoring tomorrow. I feel like I've been getting a LOT of aches and cramps from the side I have the cysts on... and I'm nervous that maybe the Estrace is making them grow. But at the same time I didn't want to call to ask because I don't want this cycle cancelled just because of some discomfort (lets face it, with IVF it seems to be more about discomfort than not). And in the past there's definitely been times where they've hurt a lot and not grown at all... I'm just nervous what they'll do (and what choices I'll have left) if they have been growing.

 

[MrsL4]

krissy - i don't have any experience with that but my fingers are crossed that tomorrows scan is okay and hopefully you are just experiencing side effects from ivf meds

 

[waitingongod1]

Krissy- Hope all goes well!

 

[beneathmywing]

Krissy -- Good luck tomorrow! Hope it goes well.

I've been reading along though I've been quiet for a bit. AF finally showed for me so I am going in for my baseline Thursday! Super excited to get started finally!

 

[Hopethisyear]

Betty - Glad you are feeling better. Glad to hear you have 3 frosties! That's odd you say that about the clinic keeping them because my DH was saying the same thing last night. He was also saying how much we just trust the Dr's that everything they are saying is true and not just charging us for stuff we don't need to be.

Pecks - The things we go through for these babies we want....like strange men focusing all their attention on you lady parts. Glad to hear otherwise the scratch wasn't to bad, I'm doing that next month.

Krissy - Good luck tomorrow. Sorry, I don't know anything about endo.

Beneath - Yay for AF and getting started....It's happening!!!

AFM - Heard from my nurse today that I have Four day-5 embies and 2 more that are fighting and will check on tomorrow. We are going to freeze whatever we have and do the PGD testing. I feel so much better about testing more as I read there is only about a 50% chance of no chromosonal abnormalities for my age. If we get 4-6 to test I will be so excited!

 

[N8ie]

Krissy- all the best for today

 

[bettybee1]

Hope- I hope all 4 have no issues !!! I don't trust any doctors not a lot anyway. Some are actually really incompetent and its the nurses that save there skin most of the time

Krisy - hope your scan is all clear !

Waiting - how you feeling


Can I ask people you have got ohss how long have people waited for FET and you doing it medicated or natural? Xxx

 

[MissCassie]

Hope all you lovely ladies are well!

I have egg collection booked in for Friday at 12pm I have 4 lovely big follies to collect. And hopefully there are some more in there. I'm so excited.

 

[bettybee1]

Good luck missie hope you get enough xx
