    waitinginPA,
    i think i'm going to have to go through 8 cycles. my embies have issues, as i carry a balanced translocation. we're doing pgd too. So glad that you found 2 normals!!! Can I have one? lol.

    so i just had my first US and BW for this cycle since starting stims (tonight will day 4). it's weird being on such a low dose of stims this time (75 gonal-f and 75 menopur) and for ONCE, not having them freak out when they call me because there are way too many follicles and my E2 is way too high. my E2 is 258 and they said to keep everything the same. weird, but i hope good?

    here's what they said today about my follicles - "17 less than 10" on the right and "14 less than 10" on the left. i guess that just means i have a bunch of small ones. i'm going back in on sunday so will know more then... i don't feel anything going on in my abdomen which is different than my last cycles.

    i left my nurse a message about it , but haven't gotten an answer (we keep missing each other when she calls me for BW results and never leaves an answer about the genetic stuff). anyway, i am going to call her again on Monday. So is the question i should ask -"Are DH and I going to be karyotyped?" Not sure how to phrase it..

    hope your AF shows up. when would be your transfer if all goes according to plan?
