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

[Swepakepa3]

So i had a multi-quote to respond to all the ladies and i closed the window so i'm to lazy to go back...

Lulu (I think) - your scan is amazing!!!

Hmmm i can't remember who else i wanted to respond tooo...... Darn


AFM: I wish i had better news but...... currently 3 eggs have fertilized normally, 5 abnormally for some reason several sperm are attaching to a single egg causing abnormal fertilization, and 3 have yet to fertilize..... They will be calling me back tomorrow at some point and ET will most likely be on sunday 10/21. they suggested we implant 3 eggs so lets hope the 3 little eggs survive.

Good luck everyone!! to all

 

[Stinas]

Lulu - your scan looks great!! Yay!! That's a good idea for the pio. Good to know for the future.

Jenn - ill have a few drinks when I go out....nothing crazy. I'm actually glad I didn't go out. I am sick now. Head cold. DH was right but we won't let him know that lol

Bubm - yay!!

Michelle - I would go back if the pain continues. Hope u feel better soon.

Bomo - I hope your mom is doing better. That's rough. I know how u feel nits frustrating seeing people have kids easily that shouldn't.

Mo - yay for making a decision!!! I feel sometimes the nurses know more and know you better.

Mrs c - glad your apt went well!!!

Lindsay - hope your apt goes well on Monday.

SwEp - 3 is not bad. Fx this is it!!

As for me....I got this head cold and I'm dying at work!!! Tom I work open to close. Just my luck. Hopefully it's gone by transfer.

 

[Swepakepa3]

whats going on with all these head colds? I have one as well.... stuffy nose..... blah like we don't have enough going on......

 

[drsquid]

swep- did they not do icsi? would they recommend that? fingers crossed 3 will more than do it for you

weather is changing here. friend went to the er today for her headache (30weeks pregnant) and i had mine back today for the first time in ages. sigh

 

[azlissie]

Lulu, that's a great pic! So cool.

Michelle, I really hope you can get some relief soon! I hate not knowing what's wrong.

Bomo, I agree that making you go to counseling is ridiculous. Like any woman would just rush right into using donor eggs without thinking things through first. I'm glad my clinic didn't make me do anything like that.

Swepa, I'm sending lots of positive vibes to your 3 embies!

Jenn, I think the 3D scans are really amazing and if this is the only time you're planning on being pregnant, it might be worth the extra $$. It would be awful to not do the scan and then regret it later.

Lindsay, glad you made it through parent conferences! I'm pretty lucky because since I teach high school, most parents don't even come to conferences any more and I'm lucky to get 5 people to show up (out of 150 kids).

Stinas, hope you feel better soon! There's definitely a lot of sickness going around right now. Good luck at work!

AFM, official test day is Tuesday but because I can't make it until after school I won't get the results until Weds afternoon. I have absolutely no symptoms though and I don't see how it could have worked. I didn't do OPKs but I did do the trigger shot - maybe I'm wrong about when I ov'd but I was really crampy about 41 hours after trigger and 17 hours after IUI. I'm going to try to convince my RE to do the next one 36 hrs post trigger.

MrsC, glad your appointment went well. How much longer is your hubby here?

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

 

[TwoRdue]

Hay all not feeling to greatest today so will read over other post later, just wanted to say hope you all have a great weekend!!!

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

AFM, this week has been way more stressful than I would have liked. Wednesday right before I got the call from the nurse that the beta was negative I got a call from my brother that they were taking my mom to the ER because they thought she was having a TIA (mini stroke). She had one a couple years ago and my nana had a stroke so we are always watching out for something like this. I left school and went to the ER. Talked to the nurse on the way there. Mom is ok, they THINK it was a strange migraine coming on. Thankfully there was no sign of any problems with her brain or anything else.

Yesterday I had my follow up appointment with my RE. We looked at everything they have on my uterus and hormone levels and everything else and we think the problem is egg quality which we knew was a problem because of my diminished ovarian reserve. So, we talked about the different ways to do donor cycles and because of the cost and timing, I am going to use frozen donor eggs. We are going to try to time the cycle over winter break so I don’t have to miss so much school. I had a student tell me yesterday her mom is mad because of all the school I have missed. I would like to miss as little as I can so hopefully the timing will work out. I have an appointment next Thursday with the donor coordinator and a mandatory counseling appointment. Kind of frustrating that people who shouldn’t be having kids don’t have to go through anything but because I am using donor eggs I have to go to another counseling session (already went through one about using donor sperm). Ah well, at this point I don’t care what I have to do do get me to bringing home a baby.

Sorry for such a LONG post! I hope everyone is having a great day and has a fantastic weekend!

Sorry to hear about your mom although I'm glad she is ok. I think it is great that you are moving forward and I'm glad you have a plan. That sucks about the student's mom being mad at you. If she has any idea what was going on I'm sure she would think twice about being mad.

That would be great if we can be cycle buddies I just received my blood results and it's at 101....it's coming down but slowlyyyyy I just want it at 0 so I can move forward....I'm to anxious now! lol

I'm glad to hear your mom is doing better.

Sorry your numbers are still up there. FX they drop quickly.

Hey ladies, I think DH and I have decided to put back 1 frostie with our upcoming cycle.... This kind of scares me but my RE is brillant and if this is what he is recommending then this is what I will do...I feel my RE would not present this to me if he really did not feel this is the best option. He has never been so adamant about this previously so obviously he has a reason. So that is what we will do. Now if I can only talk to the RE about this decision and not the nurse!!

BOMO: Glad mum is okay. And sounds like your RE has a good plan for another cycle.
BUBU: Glad you can cycle soon with FET. FX everything is perfect! As sucky as it is, our journey is simiar during this and its good to see someone have a way positive attitude about things because sometimes I feel like debbie downer. SO by seeing your optimism, I am going to stay focused and optimistic on things to come in the future
Want: Hope its a better day:
Michelle: Any word from dr yet?? feel better!!
sorry if i missed anything!!

I'm glad you have agreed on one. The wait is almost over!

I have blood work again on the 29th.....it better be at 0.....or Im going to have to start jumping up and down so AF can come down ......it should be down to 0 by then...lol

 

[MrsC8776]

So glad it went well, Mrs. C!!! I have my first trimester scan on Monday. It's a good day for both of us!!!

Yay for Monday! Lets hope it is a great day!

I have blood work again on the 29th.....it better be at 0.....or Im going to have to start jumping up and down so AF can come down ......it should be down to 0 by then...lol

It should be 0 by the 29th.

 

[Pink gerbera]

Swepa - I'm keeping everything crossed for your 3 embryos. Have they given you any idea when they'll put them back??

Lulu - great pictures

MrsC - glad the appointment went well.

Lindsay - cant wait to hear how your scan on Monday goes

Have a great weekend ladies xx

 

[bubumaci]

Almost - I am fine Michelle was asking how I was when I had my slipped disc (which was 4,5 years ago

... I hope everyone is doing well and I wish everyone a great Saturday ... Roll on weekend

Swepa - fingers crossed for your three I am surprised they didn't do ICSI?

AZ - good luck for your test in a few days ..

 

[MoBaby]

swepa: 3 is great! so many on here are pg as result of just 3 so I think your chances are good!!
prayin: stinks about your HCG!! Cant believe it is taking so long to get to 0. After my mc it took 8 weeks for af to show even after d/c so I think my hcg stuck around for 5-6 weeks! its crazy! fx on the 29th for you!!

 

[almosthere]

Hi bubu-sorry for the mix up-I am clearly foggy in my memory already-I think I have super early pregnancy brain!!! And I thought I read something about a cyst as well and a slipped disc so was not sure what was what.

Anywho, glad to hear all is well now!! LOL

 

[Swepakepa3]

swep- did they not do icsi? would they recommend that? fingers crossed 3 will more than do it for you

weather is changing here. friend went to the er today for her headache (30weeks pregnant) and i had mine back today for the first time in ages. sigh

they might recommend it now.... but what aggervates me is did they not see this happen last IVF cycle, be cause now i'm out of insurance coverage for my meds therefore don't think another IVF cycle is possibe, this is my last shot at it for a while..... so we shall she what happens, waiting for the follow up call this morning.

[wantbabysoon]

Hi Girls,
I have been reading all the posts but have been laying low for past couple days....
My bleeding is still on and I am starting to expect the worst... I have an ultrasound on Tuesday to see if the baby is doing ok but at this point with the amount of bleeding I am just not sure what to expect.
I am sorry I cannot do personals now... Need your prayers my friends!

 

[Lindsay18]

Want- you always have my prayers. I'm hoping you won't need them, though. Is the bleeding still as bad as it was? Did they say that it would continue for a certain amount of time???

 

[MoBaby]

want Im sorry the bleeding is still on... I really hope everything is okay and seeing your scan was okay the other day I bet you little bean is just fine. Really praying hard for you!! Didnt your doctor say the bleeding would continue for a few days? I thought I read that..

 

[almosthere]

want-sending many prayers to you and little bean-I am hoping your ultrasound shows only good news.

to those waiting for beta-looks like you azlissie-GL-will you be taking a HPT before hand?! so close-and please do not worry about lack of symptoms I basically had none-had I not taking a hpt before, I would have been even more shocked to hear I was pregnant-this could be it for you symptoms or no symptoms!!!
