So sorry the witch got you! Have you thought if adding anything new to your protocol to help mix things up?

Thanks. Ill add the maca root

Chantal- Do you take maca root in powder form or capsule?
Also.. when we first started you posted a plan for fertility.. can you repost? Thanks

I know you were joking but I still felt bad!

I was taking the capsule form of Maca root, the organic Gaia brand. If that helps!

oh no! So sorry.... I was really hoping for you! *hugs*

I had my beta this morning. Will have the results this afternoon. I'm hoping for at least 152, but ideally anything above 228 would be true doubling. They also scheduled my first U/S, but it isn't until Jun 12th! EEK! That is 2 weeks Wednesday. I'm going to lose my mind between now and then!

Sorry Jandk

I am still waiting for AF. This morning when I went into the bathroom to test I wiped and there was some spotting. So I didnt waste the test. I put a tampon in and went to work. There was only a spot of blood after 4 hours and now nothing. Its a waiting game. But our next step is to register to become foster parents in Lansing, Michigan where we live. They have billboards and ads on the radios and tv about needing foster parents and they dont discriminate because we are unmarried and lesbian. So that is our next step. My guess is I will need the summer to be sad about not being able to carry my own and then we will start the classes and registering in September.

Sounds like a very fulfilling thing to do! Helping out those in need, and you'll be able to help kids in need. Sounds like you might not be totally out for this cycle though. Spotting right around the time that AF is supposed to come could well be implantation spotting. I think you might want to take a when you get home or at least tomorrow morning! I have always found that testing in the afternoon is way better than morning for me.

I would say that is not a full AF then. So there is hope!!

Regarding foster parents, I truly think that is one of the most self-less things a person can do. I love the idea of it, and my husband and I have been considering this as well. I have a couple gay couple friends of mine here who have fostered, and it worked out really well for them. Either way, things will work out for you! I know it!

Sams I was taking Navitas Naturals Maca Gelatinized Powder (Maca Power). Subscribe and save from Amazon

Yes the progesterone suppositories are stronger if you have some left over from ivf. What I did was use the Emerita over the counter till I got bfp and then switched to Endometrin since I no longer have any refills from my FS and OB wont prescribe it because she doesnt think i need it. Now I feel guilty using it and not telling her.

 

[never_give_up]

Jandk I agree with Ali and Melly. I also had spotting the night of my bfp 13-14 dpo

Ob called with beta results and on Friday 24th it was 244. So doubling time according to the calculator is 38 hours. First Ultrasound is the 11th June!

I am still waiting for AF. This morning when I went into the bathroom to test I wiped and there was some spotting. ...

Oh ok, just seeing this. I had some spotting(light brown then pink) on CD 29 and CD 30(aprox 12 and 13 dpo??). Af was due. It's stopped since (knocks on wood).

... if it's not a full flow, then anything is possible. & even then..gosh, I've read some odd stuff.

woo hoo!!

 

[alicatt]

Got my beta.. and at 13dp5dt it was 201.
My FS office was trying to tell me that I'm only 4 weeks today? I think I'm almost 5 weeks
So the plan is this:

* Possible 4th Beta later this week
IVIg (1/2 dose) on Monday Jun 3rd
First U/S Wednesday Jun 12th.

I am thinking I will go insane between now and Jun 12th without any knowledge of what is going on in there. I will just have to keep the faith and hope that baby W is growing!

Great news! That sounds like a good number!

Ali great beta! We will both be having ultrasounds in the second week of June. Then we can take off our cautious spoilers and show our tickers
