April IUI & IVF Sisters in Fertility Apr 29th-May 12th

[Wannabeat43]

Hello all..
Just dropping on in to read all of your posts.I am really hoping for some good news for everyone....!!!!! . All is the same for me. Taking my daily injection... I go to morrow for a follie check and blood. things are moving along.. Im trying to just live my life and not come on here everyday. Its so hard not to let this infertility stuff take over. I started taking a baby asprin this time around. I did have that anti cardiolipin antibody syndrome one time when I was pregnant (of course MC), so I figured let me try something different. Any thoughts on this?
Enjoy the day!

Irish that is excellent!

Winkle - I hope you can sort things out. I know you will be a great Mom someday no matter how you get there!!

Raining - Can't wait to hear your news!! Hope the u/s was great and you get a DVD!

EOE - Best of luck!! I will be lurking on here a bit to check on my old friends. Thinking of you all!!

winkle- im so sorry

got my "plan" from the doc today. go for progesterone level on the 11th then start lupron that day. hopefully get my period on the 21st and get a baseline us on the 22nd (this could be dicey cause i leave for philly on the 22nd at midnight, but i guess i can get us in philly too). then around june 1 i start gonal f. of course i dont end up using my cetrotide... sigh. 6 boxes of that go to waste. noticed they didnt say anything about bcp to get from may 22nd to june 1.. but emailed the doc and he wrote back in minutes saying people dont usually ovulate on lupron so i guess that is what is going to shift my cycle.

Yay Irish!!! Fingers crossed for you and thanks for the positivity!

Preg Mentioned

They didn't give a full report to RE and weren't friendly but I do know RE doesn't seem concerned because we dont have measurements (hopin they will be on the DVD I will get later this week) but two good heartbeats (178 & 165) so hoping that means good things only and this pregnancy goes without any issues, scares & time flies for them to be full term. After everything once they are here, I will come unglued!

Thanks for all the support!

greenm: Thanks!! Glad you like the photos

winklehawk: I'm so sorry to hear about the negative result you got from this IVF I was rooting for you, that this would be the one. I do hope that your next appt with the RE, will shed some light onto what happened. One way or another, you deserve to be a Mommy, I just know it

IrishEyesonBaby: That was a great fert report!! I'm so excited for you, that you have so many good embabies, waiting to make a home after the ET

drsquid: You're not giving up. You're doing what you think will bring you the highest chance for a BFP - nothing wrong with that. If DH and I had the money, we'd have done IVF months ago, so don't be so tough on yourself...

Wannabeat: Glad to hear you plugging along in your cycle, and trying to live your life at the same time. I'm not sure what anti cardiolipin antibody syndrome is, but I do take baby aspirin during the 2WW ONLY as per my RE. He told me it was to help with implantation, though it hasn't helped me yet, but I still do it every cycle.

~Preg Mentioned~
rainingsunshine: We did!! Felt like the weekend flew by, because of it too LOL I can only imagine how anxious you must've felt to find out what's going on with your little beans. Those are some strong HBs!! Hope you get to see measurements on the DVD of the U/S, so you can watch it over and over

AngiLara: Good job on losing 15lbs, so far, keep it up!! As tough as it must be to watch your DD, be pregnant, I know you can't wait to see your grandchild Don't be too hard on yourself, that you feel this way, because you have every right to
~End Mention~

~AFM~ Not too much going on with me. I was supposed to get up earlier today, to be ready for the courier that was coming by today, but who am I kidding? I was still in bed, when the courier called up, asking me to come down. Well, 5mins later, after putting on my sport's bra and yoga pants - I headed down stairs to sign for the package. I know, you're wondering, 'what is she talking about?'. Well, apparently, last week DH's MasterCard number was swiped...AGAIN. This will be the 3rd or 4th time he's had to change his number, by getting a new card. It's quite annoying. Anyway, other then that nuissance, just waiting for DH to come home. We need to hit Costco, before getting in our walk and coming home, so I can make dinner

Hopefully everyone is having a terrific Tuesday and has a wonderful Wednesday tomorrow!! Sending out lots and lots of positivity, baby dust, and to us all

Lara- great to hear from you. I had problems logging in for 2 days and it finally let me start logging onto th ethreads yesterday. Otherwise I had to use my phone. The authority site is the new owners of FT. Congrats on the weight loss. Can you pass that on to me too I have a feeling a lot of it will come off becuase I don't have time to eat lol.

Winkel- when I could no longer cycle with my own eggs, I did a lot of research into alternatives. There are donor embies that are cheaper to get at about 3-4k. I was on my RE waiting list in case DE did not owrk. Of course adoption was an option for me, but much harder as a single lady. You just have to do some research on to what options will work for you. Once i did that, I took a year off from TCC to save money for the DE cycle. Hugs.

Hope everyone is doing well!

[Beagle Momma]

Hello ladies...

Wow, this board has been active the past couple of days!

Kdelehant--Woo-hoo for two back-to-back AF cycles.....here's to hoping that your body is back and jumpstarted and ready for round two!

Winkle--Lots of hugs to you, sorry to hear of your disappointing news. This IF stuff is so hard. I hope you are able to sort things out your RE can shed some light on things for you.

Lara--Congrats on losing 15lbs....it is so hard to lose weight. I am proud of you and looking forward to you cycling again in June. I am sure this time is hard for you, gentle hugs to you.

Irish- I am a long-time lurker and finally started posting on this board about six months ago....but I have been lurking since January 2010 so I am familiar with your journey. Your fertilization report sounds awesome...wishing all the best for your embabies.

AFM- I have to check in quickly because my class is coming in but for the first time that I can remember I actually got a positive on my OPK and it is day 16 so not too late in my cycle. DH isn't feeling well, but told him to be ready when I get home, because we have work to do! Ha, ha, ha....it is funny how excited I am about a positive on an OPK. I am just giddy today....

Okay, have to run....will write more personals later!

PREGNANCY/BABIES mentioned

Oneforlis- so glad you are doing well and still smile everytime I think of you and your sweet Riley.

Raining- Congrats on two heartbeats, hoping for a happy and healthy nine months for you!

Beagle Momma: YAY for getting a positive OPK!! Hopefully your DH is feeling better and 'up' for it, so and you two can get your BDing on

~AFM~ Last night DH and I got our BDing on, to kick start our BDing schedule and get his swimmers going too Got a mild migraine going that radiates into my jaw. The weather here has been going back and forth between sunny and overcast/rainy, so the pressure has finally got to me - bleh. When I get these types of headaches, only sleep will take them away. So, I'm thinking I'll be going to bed right after I finish my peppermint tea. Other then that, not too much went on with me today. Was going to cook, but we caved and got McPuke's for dinner to donate for McHappy Day today. Anyway!! Just counting down the days until my cd11 appt on Friday. REALLY want to find out why my RE has suggested I take DHEA, before I make a decision to take it or not.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Wednesday and has a tremendous Thursday tomorrow!! Sending out lots and lots of positivity, baby dust, and to us all
