No I haven't. I'm so nervous. I might wait for OTD which is Thursday. We'll see. Lol

 

[joeys3453]

oh how exciting. have you been noticing anything? i am so excited for you!!!

 

[ttcbaby117]

Well I was having a ton of symptoms but I believe they are medication related. My boob soreness has decreased which has scared me. I don't think that is a good sign.

 

[wish2bmama]

You are stronger than I was. I tested two days early. I couldn't take it. I figured worry would make it worse

 

[wish2bmama]

Ps, symptoms don't mean much in the ivf world! Hold on to hope ttcbaby.

Ladies,

First off, I LOVE this thread. I'm on day 7 of stims myself but have been reading these success stories for weeks now... getting inspiration

Two things I worry about, that I'm hoping someone will comment on, are first, the trigger shot. I've heard it has to be the exact time they say, and in a very specific spot. How did you all do with that?

Also, after transfer, I have to climb 2 sets of stairs to get to my bedroom. I'm worried about this too.

Any advice? Thanks so much!!

Hey the trigger shot does have to be Giving at the time the Nurse tells u just in the same way you done all your stims... Stairs Ect won't affect anything after transfer as well I was told I can carry on as normal or take couple days rest I choose to carry on as normal but as a early pregnant lady would iykwim. I guess we just have to think about all the other ladies that get pregnant when they don't even no good luck

Anything else you would have wanted to know before you started this process: It was hard letting go of the genetic link and using a donor egg but I have no regrets. We tried with my own eggs and got a BFP the 2nd round of IVF but sadly miscarried at 9 weeks. By the 3rd go round, the number and quality of eggs retrieved were so low, we knew it was time to switch if we wanted to be parents. Now I am 17 weeks along with 2 boys and couldn't be happier! My advice to others - do your research on your clinic! Those success rates do make a difference and you need to feel confident in your doctor.
