IVF until we all get our bfp! 2012-present *13 w/twins & 1 w/triplets!*

[Lindsay18]

Baby- I can't believe you principal isn't being supportive! I haven't had to say anything to mine as of yet because it's all been happening in the summer, however I would hope she would be supportive if I had too!

Pink- thank you! I read a lot about it online too and it did say that it was probably the uterus stretching etc. Still worries me!

TTB- yay for triggering!!! So exciting!

DrS- that must be so cool to see them especially for that long! I can't wait for my u/s Sunday!!!

 

[almosthere]

babyonmyown-so sorry about the conflict with your principle!

TTB-WAHOO!!! So close to finishing your ivf cycle, yay!

Very early here* and about to head to work-will read any other missed writings on here when I get home! I am only one sleep away from starting my US and BW to measure my growing follies, yay!!!! And my follistim is supposed to arrive today-that will take a load off my back!

 

[Likklegemz]

Very quick message as I'm in work! Had scan today and had over 10 follicles at 15mm so am triggering tonight and egg collection on Friday!! Woops rather loudly!

 

[Tella]

Just want to say hi to all you wonderful girls!!!!!

COngrats to all the BFP's in the last while, hope the time flies by to your scan, so that we can find out if it is twins or more hehe

Thinking about you all that is stimming and waiting in anticipation on the follie growth, GL hoping for lots of healthy follies!!!! Remember quality over quantity!

To those about to go to ER, GL!!! Fx'd for great fertilization reports!

And those i the TWW, it is torture but we pray for a BFP for each one of you!!!!

And lastly the ones that is about to test or do BETA, Stay strong, possitive cant wait for great news from more of you girls!

Thanks MrsC for still keeping the first page updated, it helps me a lot as im not on BnB so much anymore but atleast i can still see where everyone is at.

 

[MoBaby]

Ttb and likkle!! Yay!!!
Gettingbroody: 23 is a lot but I had 24 last cycle but only 14 became usable follicles with 12 mature so I lost half of them b/c I started off stunning very slow b/c I was over suppressed so hopefully all those follicles mature and I get them all! I'm greedy lol..

Hi Tella good to hear from you!!

I think this thread has gone up about a hundred pages since the last time I felt safe posting here!

I had a virus in my email, so I dropped off the radar completely to keep it confined to my own computer. My IT guy (also known as my brother in law, who works in IT) finally found out that it's not on my computer, but in a certain email provider's re-direct page. (For anyone curious, I did have email that started with a Y.....and it was sending porn to everyone.)

SO, I'm back on BnB, but suspect that I'll go into lurker mode here. One, because I can't keep up with you ladies, and two, because I don't want to cause more harm than good with what I'm up to.

But I wanted to at least come on and say congrats to the new BFPs and send my hope and to all those still going through the whole grueling process here. I've gone on to second tri, but I still go through first tri, so I expect to see ALL OF YOU there soon. I believe it can happen, ladies, even if it's not as soon as anyone would like.

I've called it, Universe. Don't you dare get in the way! I know where you live!

Ladies,
I got my update on second beta .. its 102...not exactly doubled but went up.. Third beta on Friday... I am kinda worried now..

 

[TTB]

BabyOnMyOwn - so unfair of your principal to give you grief for taking leave, I mean if you had any other medical condition it would be fine right

MrsC - I'm trying not to get caught up on numbers this time, although to be honest I was a bit disappointed by the number of follicles. This cycle I'm aiming for quality over quantity

Likklegemz - yay for triggering tonight, fx we can be bump buddies

GettingBroody - good luck for your first day back at school!

michelle01 - good luck testing this morning!

almostthere - good luck for your scan tomorrow!

I must say I love this thread too, it's so good to be able to talk about all this ivf stuff with people who know what you are going through!

AFM - countdown is on for EC. After my last EC the lady next to me had already ovulated and they werent able to get any eggs during her EC, she was so so upset and I felt so bad for her. I've started thinking about it in the last few days and it's making me paranoid that the same thing will happen to me this time. Aarrrrrgh, I don't know why I'm so worried this time around :/

I think the doubling time is every 72 hours, was your first beta 2 or 3 days ago?

Ladies,

OKi... got my time for my transfer on Friday ... 13:55 ... I hope they are doing OK! I won't know until I go into the room for the transfer, how they are...

:wave:

 

[notoptimistic]

bubu - are they 5 day embryos? I hope it works - it will give me hope for my future FET!!

 

[jchic]

Bubu, thats great! All the luck in the world!!!!

 

[bubumaci]

Yes, they count as 5dt - because when they did the ICSI, they were then frozen on day 1 - so they count the thawing as being the same "status" - day one and then four days later, so day five, they do the transfer.
The doctor considered doing a three day transfer. I asked what the difference was - he said that if we were transferring fewer than we were thawing, they could do the earlier transfer and let the others develop another two days and potentially re-freeze. Since we want to transfer all three, we are sticking to day 5.

I also hope it works the last FET didn't and I find it quite depressing, that neither in the fresh cycle nor the FET did any of them make it to blast at the time of transfer (Had two morulas the first time - although one was becoming a blast by the time of transfer and for my FET, one nice morula and one several cell embryo) ...

I really am praying that they develop better this time and - since we are going the whole hog and transferring three, that at least one manages to burrow in and stick...

 

[MoBaby]

I think that's great want!!congrats!! Ur preggo!!

 

[Phantom710]

Good luck Bubu!!!!


Tomorrow I'm having my first ultrasound and blood work with plans to start injections and pills on Friday. Today is my last "normal" day.

Also, tmi question. my clinic is having me do the Ultrasound while I'm on my period. Is that normal? It's kinda gross to think about, but when I brought it up they said that's what they wanted.
