BePaisely,
No, I'm not doing progesterone in oil shots, thank god! They gave me the option of those or Crinone gel which is a progesterone suppository (vaginal). I chose the gel because I really didn't want another shot, especially not intramuscularly! So far, the gel is fine. I wear a liner every day in case of slight discharge, but I find it very manageable. Do you know what your clinic offers as far as progesterone support? Also, my clinic said that the gel and the shots were equally effective.
I had my beta this morning. I didn't feel like it had worked at all. I ignored their calls twice because I just didn't want to know. Finally I called in the afternoon and I had questions about FET and when to follow up with the doctor. Turns out, the nurse told me it was positive. I really was floored. I just didn't have any clue if it had worked or not. She said my HCG was 99 and progesterone was 31. I go back on Thursday for another beta. I can't even believe I'm saying that. I just really thought it hadn't worked. With IVF, you are on so many different hormones, there is no telling what is a real symptom and what's not, and I also think that my body doesn't feel the effects of the hormones as much because of all it has been through if that makes any sense. I just wanted to give you guys some hope for your cycles. Even if you don't think it worked, it can! I always heard people say that and I didn't believe it, but now I'm one of those people.
Anyway, I'm afraid to jinx anything, but I'm just trying to enjoy today for what it is.
Good luck with your appointment on Friday.
Harvest - good luck with this cycle as well!
