@Ash, good luck with egg retrival!! Fingers crossed you have lots of healthy eggs!!!
@Whisper, I am sorry work is so stressful right now!!! IVF is already stressful enough without work being added on top with more stress!!! Big hugs to you!!
I hope things get sorted out at work and the audit goes alright!!! I know what you mean about turning 30, I went through that same thing. I am a few years older than you and I also thought I would already of had a couple of kids by now too!!! Just remember you aren't old and you have time to have a couple of kids if you want too!! The main thing is that you are working on building your family now, so you are doing the best that you can to achieve that dream now!!
@Happy, Was it under anathesia or just like a heavy sleep medication??? I had dental work done with sleep sedation before and it was different than when I have had anathesia with surgery. I was like drifting in and out of consciouness and I only remeber bits and pieces of the dental visit. I was so doped up I didn't even care that the dentist was working on me. I am scared of having dental work done.
That is strange how different DRs have different theories on prenatal vitamins during IVF. I think probably a good alternative would be to take folic acid and just eat healthy during the IVF.
AFM, I know some of you girls on the thread have already read these updates. But my tests were BFN as far as I could tell this morning so I think IVF is definatly happening for me since I don't think I am pregnant. Other than that one happy piece of news that I got today was I got approved for that program that gives you free IVF medications, so I will be saving over $2,200.00 on my IVF meds. I was really happy about that since it was getting hard to afford everything, so this is truly a blessing.
Other than that the big thing today is hurricane Sandy. We just had the eye of the storm pass over, so it got quiet for a quick minute. The hurricane was a category 1 with 90 mph winds and gusts of over 115 mph when it hit land where we are. The storm started late lastnight, and got worse as the day progressed. Luckily we are okay and the power stayed on the entire time. It just flickered on and off like twice. unfortunatly we are only half way through the storm, the storm will continue overnight into tomorrow. Hopefully we are just in for more of the same for the second half of the storm. Our basement also stayed dry as well, so that is a huge plus! The sump pump is doing it's job.
