hi all! sorry I've been MIA. we were out of town for a bit and then I forgot to pay cable bill. whoops. we had to wait 1 week for them to come and turn it back on. won't let that happen again. anyway..
sounds like everyone is on a good track
cagirl-the opk's are such a pain in the ***. I have never had a positive except once after a cycle and even then it was just a pink line, not darker than the control line. I have tested first morning urine, second morning urine, afternoon etc. I guess I just always miss the large quantity in my pee. I also tried the monitor which I thought would be my cure.....yeah, no such luck. miracles do happen!!!
jp glad you got and are on pill. your protocol does sound so long. mine is similar but not as long. At least two weeks of bcp and then I start lupron with the BCP for 1 week, stop BCP and wait for and then start stims with lupron at a lower dose. usually when I stop bcp on sunday I end up starting stims on friday. i had to bump things out a bit this time b/c I'm at a course for the weekend oct24/25 and if I started lupron any earlier than the 12th, I'd be really close to ER that weekend. That is what does suck about boston IVF. Sunday is the magic day to start stuff, I guess they do it for there scheduling purposes.
We were just visiting my brother in law and his family. My niece is 16 months and not into anyone but her mom. She sat on my lap and just was content for like 2 hours as we all talked and my sis in law was so surprised b/c she never goes to anyone. They know what we are doing so she was so supportive in saying that you are meant to be a mom. It was nice, but it killed me. I know I'm meant to be a mom, that is why we have spent our life savings. god I hope it works for us all this time!

should we start another thread? for 2,3,4,5,ivf'rs in oct/nov? Looks like this one is down to just the 4 of us??
