January 2012 IVF

Constance - Good luck!!

Princess - Yeah for a great scan!!! Only a few days from your ER. That is exciting :)
 
Wooowooop 31 thats excellent :happydance::happydance:

I also have a scan Monday and should trigger that night or tuesday :thumbup: Init together :kiss:
 
Thanks girls!

31 well done!
Constance yay for PUPO!

Trask - I'm kinda nervous/kinda excited, glad stimming is going well, DH does my shots too ;)

I feel a little greedy because although we have 12 follies I'm kinda hoping a few more pop up before ec only because with us egg sharing if we get less then 12 that's less then 6 each and I would have liked a few more to play with just incase :blush:
But I suppose beggars can't be choosers and it's quality not quantity and I am very grateful for the few I've got :cloud9:

Trigger tomorrow, just can't believe I'm done stimming, I feel like I've passed a huge milestone,

Onwards and Upwards.. And hopefully Outwards ;)
 
How exciting. I wish all you all the best of luck.

As I keep getting told....doesn't matter how many you have. It only takes 1 :hugs:
 
Morning all!

Princess I totally understand how you feel! There is pressure when egg sharing to get a good amount as when you know your only going to get half of it, it's a bit worrying. If they were all for you 12 wouldn't be a worry! I ended up with 9 from my 18, 2 of which were imature) the remaining 7 all made it to day 3, and3 made it to blast. All will be fine, you will see! And no your not greedy! X
 
Thanks girls!

31 well done!

I don't think it is greedy. I think we all want to get as many as possible to avoid ever having to go through this again :)

I don't think you are greedy, it is only natural to want to keep as many as possible so you have the best chances. Good luck with the trigger tonight, not much longer now!
 
Back from today's scan. They didn't do a lot of measurements since there were so many but measured the biggest ones. On the right she said there were about 20 and on the left she said there were 12 good ones and a bunch of smaller ones. So I don't know if the 20 on the right were all good or if that included some smaller ones too :shrug: The biggest were 16-18 with the rest around 13-14. Still waiting for the call on next steps.
 
Morning Ladies!

Hope everyone is doing well :flower:

2nd to last night of follistim/menopur/ganirelix :happydance:

Can't wait until my u/s on Monday-will get info when to trigger! :thumbup:

What does PUPO mean?? :shrug:
 
Great news Mrs Bear! Sounds like you will be scheduling an ER very soon!! :)
 
Talked to the RE (not mine, the one on this weekend) and he said to lower the Gonal-F to 75 and come in again tomorrow. He thinks I will trigger tomorrow but wants another look. So if we trigger tomorrow, that would put ER on 1/17 and ET on 1/20. :thumbup:
 
Hello Ladies!

Looks like we are all getting poked around this week :haha: I did Menopur and Ganirelix last night along with Follistim and wasnt as bad as I was thinking. The mixing of Menopur and the burning from it was awful but just gotta suck it up and get sticked :growlmad: I have to take two of the powder vials and 1 cc of saline and that was tricky getting the solution in and out of the vials.

Looks like everyone has a good number of follies :thumbup:

Has anyone had bad side effects? I have just had headaches and sometimes heart palpitations :nope: And i have had the weirdest dreams and all i want is to just have a good night of sleep :sleep:

After the few days of the menopur I decided to try letting it sit in the syringe for 5-10 minutes before injection. It did reduce the burn. Give it a try.

Last night I did not let it sit for 5 minutes and it BURNED :muaha:- thanks for the tip bcuz this time i think i will mix the menopur first and let it sit while i do follistim and ganirelix.
 
When I went in Thursday they told me not to come back today bc all my follicles were only around 10 or 11 mm.. Will go in Monday and hopefully they will have matured for er on wed.. Then transfer wed! Excited!!
 
Getting exciting!! Sounds like we will be having a pretty active week coming up :thumbup:

With princess triggering tonight, me probably tomorrow and then it sounds like a LOT potentially triggering on Monday and Tuesday, we will have triggers, retrievals and transfers going for the next week solid at the very least!
 
Thank you for your well-wishes, ladies!

Arimas, Mrs. Bear, and 31 good luck on your upcoming transfers! :)
 
Good luck for upcoming retrievals and transfers!

Mrs Bear-how do you know you will be having transfer on the 20th? I thought most places you just have to wait and see how the embies are getting on, as to whether it's a 2, 3 or 5 day transfer? x
