    Hey ladies! Well I'm still on the roller coaster ride...and I am hoping it's just going to keep going up and not back down!!! I've been going to acupuncture for the past 2 weeks and up until today's RE visit I wasn't getting much response to stims (I never have had a good response). My last two visits have only heard "nothing big" so today I was so nervous to go in. They did the sono for like 15 minutes before saying (an 8 on the right, 6 on the left). I know only 2 but for me that's better then nothing! How sad....I am praying that they are just starting to catch on that they have some work to do and continue to multiply & grow!! I checked some stats against my first cycle where I did get pg and I'm not really that far off...my E2 is better then it was at this time, my lining is about the same and they saw three instead of 2 (but wound up with 4). So I haven't given up hope...it's the only thing I have left (and I wonder how sometimes). We'll see what this afternoon's voicemail brings...

    CLC: I only got 4 eggs this first time and only 1 fertilized and it actually worked...I couldn't believe it! Unfortunately the day before my 6 week sono I needed emergency surgery for an ectopic (after I tried to have tubes removed 3 times and all doctors left them in). As everyone experiences...every aspect of IF is frustrating!!!!

    Hey girls! Friday update...called voicemail last night and was told to continue meds until Sunday morning and return to RE for more BW & sono...praying that these follies did some major multiplying and growing!! I'm going to try and get another acupuncture visit it on Saturday before RE the following day...anything to help!! You know what's so frustrating? No one carries any of our med supplies locally...I was running out of needles and it was too expensive for Shraft's to overnight extra needles and no local pharmacies had them in stock so I was trying to rush around last night having my dr. call in a prescription for them so they could order them to be here by today...nothing is easy for us!!!!

    Just to add...just picked up the needles at the local pharmacy...he charged me $12 for 10 needles...what a jerk!

    I started lupron shots today. 20cc until Oct. 5 and then down to 10. I only have 5 more days of BCPs as well. Can't hardly wait! Things are really moving now!
    Good luck to you all!
    BTW- I done the shot all by myself and it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected!! Thanks for the support!

    I think I will join you guys.

    Name: Jodi or Jo Jo
    TTC: #1
    IVF: #1 (and I am freaking out)
    Location: Kansas (but completing IVF in Chicago)
    DX: Tubal, which was repaired and then found our DH has low sperm motility
    Age: Me 35 and DH 36 (my dh as a 8 year old daughter, and a wicked ex-

    Hi girls.
    Courtney:
    Just curious about the Syranel....it's something you sniff, that's like Lupron? I've never heard of that!

    kitten: I've been doing acupuncture for a few months now too and really enjoy it. I really think it helps to de-stress me. Happy stimming!

    Jodi: Welcome! Your first IVF is daunting, but also sort of exciting at the same time, isn't it? I just completed my first one (BFN unfortunately) and am now rolling into my second. It really wasn't as bad as I envisioned it to be. And you have this great support network here to help you get through it! GOOD LUCK!

    ctd: Yeah--you're off and running!

    ARE WE SUPPOSED TO POST HERE or the other board? I'm so confused...hope one of the organizers of Autumn's Hope comes in to set things straight!
    JC
    Me: 34 / DH: 33 - TTC #1 for 4 LONG years-Clomid, multiple IUI's, 1 BFN IVF w/ NO natural fertilization

    Hi,
    I started BCP on tuesday September 19th 2006 and I still am waiting on my calendar for when things will happen. Does anyone know what the difference between menpor and repronex is?

    Thanks
    Kris

    JandBC -
    I am confused also! We have 3 threads and people are posting on all 3 and I have no idea which one to use! Can't we have just ONE thread?
