Thanks so so much Ash! I feel better! My nurse told me that if my e2 levels keep going up (which they have) I should be OK. Lets hope!

Tella, wow, good luck on Wednesday! Thank you!

Tiff, Hopeful and Dr Squid:
I hope you don't mind me asking, but I am super curious how old you ladies are? I am only asking because I am 41 and looking for a little encouragement I will be using my own eggs.

I totally understand if you don't want to answer that question.

Thank you,
~Angie

never2late - I'm 24 and have been trying for I think 19 months now and I still haven't had success so there is hope!

My husband and I have been trying for 3 1/2 years and 3 months with our RE/FS. IVF is our last resort. I wish we would have known earlier how difficult natural conception was going to be for us and we could have done IVF when I was 37

 

[ashknowsbest]

Well I still have hope for you. Miracles happen all of the time and you will get your bfp you just have to keep fighting for it.

Oh and I know what you mean about trying sooner. Not that I could have really tried earlier because I'm still young but when I told my mom that we were trying to have a baby she was like what why?! and I told her that I just suspected that I was going to have problems having a baby (my mom couldn't have anymore children after me) and now that we've been trying for 19 months she's like well I guess it's a good thing you started when you did and I'm like yeah ... I told you so! I love her but sometimes I'm right and she hates it.

But yeah, I'm happy that we started when we did because I really want my first child when I'm about 25 or 26.

I just turned 26 on the 16th. Good luck on your cycle! Lots of your way!!




So today I was supposed to get my Beta done, well ran into some insurance problems and they wanted me to pay $235 to have the test done.I Don't have the money until tomorrow, but called my RE to let her know and she said to just make an appt. with a local OB/GYN since I am high risk with my diabetes. So thursday I go, hoping to get some good news. Really upset I couldnt do my beta today and see what my numbers are. But hopefully all goes well Thursday. Hope everyone is doing well!

Never - in 39. I'm a bit of a different case however in that I am single and did not attempt to get pregnant prior. I did 4 iuis which I found out later failed due to bad sperm

 

[oneof14]

drsquid, have you tested again?

 

[georx]

Congrats Squid!

I'm too scared to POAS yet, plus my RE said not to POAS, but wait until blood test on Saturday. I need to order more progesterone though if the news is good, so I may POAS anyway on Thursday. I think they say that because the HCG trigger can still be in your system and cause a false +.

I'm scared because I have been having on/off cramping since Sat morning. Did anyone else have light cramping and still have good news? I'm hoping cramping is from my little guys burrowing?? I have no spotting at all. I am now 6dp3dt. I have had so many bfn's before IVF/ICSI that I'm not sure now what amount of cramping is normal.

Also, in response to the ICSI or not discussion- we did ICSI because DH's morphology was terrible. Of 8 good eggs, 7 fertilized. ICSI was not that much more money ($1,500) in the grand scheme of things, so probably worth it.

Well, I just go the call. They cancelled my cycle. I am completey devastated. I didnt speak to the doctor yet, just the nurse and she said the doctor seems to think it was the protocol I was on. My follies were all over the place. They are converting into an IUI. I am heartbroken and afraid that the next protocol wont work either.

Congrats on all the BFP's!

I go in for my IVF class tomorrow morning at 10. I'm looking forward to just getting it over with. I think giving myself the shots is going to be the easy part since I already have given myself shots from the injectables IUI cycle. I'm nervous about the PIO but I'll get over it. Oh and the ER but I'm kind of over that already since I'll be in twilight and hopefully not feel a thing!

I hope all goes well tomorrow.

Wow lots of good stuff on here. I forgot that you can't take a weekend off on this place or you will be totally lost!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. I started PIO shots last night. DH was all ready and then chickened out. thank god my neighbor is a RN and I called her over at 11pm to do it for me. Hopefully tonight is better. Ouch!

Good thing your neighbor is a RN. Fx tonight is better.

That sucks that you have to wait a little longer. Fx for a good beta on Thursday!

Fx you get a BFP! Thursday should be a good day to test.

Well, I just go the call. They cancelled my cycle. I am completey devastated. I didnt speak to the doctor yet, just the nurse and she said the doctor seems to think it was the protocol I was on. My follies were all over the place. They are converting into an IUI. I am heartbroken and afraid that the next protocol wont work either.

So sorry they had to cancel your cycle. Maybe this IUI all do it for you and you will get a BFP rather than needing to try IVF.
