Waiting to start IVF in January anyone else?

[Morana]

ILT, congrats!! Great picture and you hubby is so funny Sticky dust for you now!

 

[CMo]

Oooh wonder if its twins??? I feel all emotional, could cry with happiness for you! Xx

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Thank you ladies!

Morana, I'm expecting the same from you on sunday! Has the spotting stop?

 

[star25]

So happy for you ilt, such amazing news and the strong possibility of twins is beyond exciting! Xxx

Ilt huge congratulations that's brilliant news.

First, sympathies on having the flu. Hope you're feeling better. I know it really knocked DH and me.

Morana good luck for Sun. Sounds like your previous experience was extremely traumatic.

On tablet so just a sketchy reply. Hope everyone else doing ok.

I'm on day 2 menopur. Mixing all those powders is irksome. All OK though apart from the headaches.

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Thanks Comfy!

Menopur is not bad for me. It did give me a headache too but it went away on day 3 once my body adjusted to it.

 

[Comfycushions]

Fingers crossed for that! Got a party to go to tomorrow night and all I've wanted to do for weeks is lie down in a dark quiet room every evening. Tricky.

Morana, I'm expecting the same from you on sunday! Has the spotting stop?

I might know sooner. The spotting is worse and it's bright red now.... It feels like AF is trying to start.
I'm trying to wait patiently to see if it reverses since I've read more than a few stories that sounded similar but still ended with BFP, so yet again more waiting. If it doesn't show full force today, I'll POAS tomorrow.

 

[Morana]

Comfy, all the powders are crazy. I was had to mix 2 vials of GonalF and 2 of Menopur and OH had to help me because the last vial was super hard to draw! But sounds like you're doing well!

 

[Jaybo]

ILT - great news on the darker line! So happy for you, how exciting that it could be twins. Praying that all goes smoothly for you now.

Morana - sorry about the spotting but don't loose hope, there are so many stories on here that start with spotting and end with a BFP. Keeping everything crossed for you.

Comfy - I know the feeling, I've been a walking zombie since I started menopur! I'm in bed by 9pm every night - not sure I'd manage a party!

DH has been really great mixing all the powders and doing the injections. I've got a bit of a needle phobia so even the sight of them makes me go a bit funny - thank goodness for the autopen thingy!

Lizzy - Friday's my work from home day as well and I love it! Not having to commute across town and sit in meetings! Good luck to you and MoBaby for scans & tests on Monday.

Hi to everyone else! :wave:

So, I had my scan this mornings after 7 days of stimming. I've got 6 follies on my R but only 1-2 on my lazy left ovary, lining looking good. I'm a bit disappointed, but never expected big numbers so I'm glad there is at least some activity. The Dr was pleased with their size but didn't give me the measurements (I didn't ask as trying not to get too obsessed with numbers!). Scan on Monday and to decide if EC on Wed or Fri! Can't believe this is all finally happening!!

Sorry for the essay! Hope everyone is doing okay.

 

[MoBaby]

Morana sorry about red spotting hoping its implantation.


Jaybo sounds like pretty good response considering your low amh. Hope they keep growing good!!

Comfy I hate menopur! It burns so bad. I start Menopur monday, probably 150 units.

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Morana, sorry to hear about the spotting. Hopefully it stops soon. Are you on progesterone shots?

Jaybo, that's a good numbers. All you need is 1 or 2 to make it through blasties stage.

Comfy, hopefully it'll go away so you can enjoy the party.

 

[Morana]

ILT, no, I'm on Crinone, progesterone gel. I think my OH would die if he had to do the shots every day He freaks out enough when it's time for trigger, poor guy

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Morana, mmmmm....where do you put the gel?

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Oh man...dr google just showed me how to use crinone lol

 

[Morana]

LOL, yeah, it's not that fun might still be better than shots

 

[beneathmywing]

LOL, yeah, it's not that fun might still be better than shots

I hate a love/hate relationship with crinone. I think my new re wants me to do the needles, which i am terrified about. But I always got af like 2-3 days early on crinone so I don't think my body absorbs it very well: /

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

I think none of the progesterone applications are fun. I wonder if that caused your spotting? I have heard some women spotted when they use progesterone.

 

[Aurora CHK]

Squeeing for you, ILT!
Everything tightly crossed for you, Morana!

Jaybo, what's your AMH? Mines 3.4 plus we have MFI too. Is this your first cycle?

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

BMW, I can tell you that the progesterone shots are not fun. Your DH better start practicing with an orange. It hurts more if he moves slow. So far, I have no clumps in my booty but both sides are sore. But hey, we'll do whatever it takes, right? Even 6 weeks of progesterone.
