GOOD LUCK SHAWNA! I hope there are some good ones in there already!
Tia, I can't believe how much everything is working out beautifully. Just so right... Amy, Is your appt for Lily? Heidi, it is so obvious how much love you have to give. It is one of your gifts to the world. However it comes to be, you will find a way to share all of the love you have.

yes, appt is for lily. just a check-up: pee on a cup, get weight and blood pressure taken, listen to heatbeat (my fav part!) and get any ?'s answered. not too exciting. my glucose appt is next week and the week after that we go for our 2nd visit to the perinatologist to check further on lily and my placenta. i hope everything is still going godd... i know it will!
shawna, go follies go! can't wait to hear from you!

Good luck today, Shawna! But don't forget, you've only been stimming a week now... don't be discouraged if you only see 5-10... it doesn't mean there aren't more. They only counted 6 or 7 for me and they retrieved 10... all it takes is one! We are all definitely praying for an easter basket, though, sweets!
 Go, follies, grow!!!

Hi girls. I miss you. I passed out on the couch last night. All my shot areas hurt (esp my 170P shot from last week). My belly is just a giant knot. Sorry to complain, I'm just beat. And I have the switching insurance issues to deal with. The person who deals with benefits has been sick this week so all my drugs are getting denied (I don't have my new number yet). I NEED more Zofran, but for 12 pills it is like $400 w/o insurance! UGH!
Shawna-I hope your follie check is a good one! Tia-I am so super exicted for you. So now you are a Feb due date? Amy-OMG please NOOOOOOO! I'll try more personals later...I gotta go shower and shave my legs...

Ladies....we have SPOTTING!! WOOHOO!!! YAY! Accunpuncture 2x this week worked. So hopefully she will be full flow tonight or tomorrow morning. Hoping for tomorrow morning so I can get my day3 baseline and start stims on Sunday. I can't imagine bringing my gonal-f pen into Boston to the museum and to dinner. I would skip it obviously. My cycle is worth more
 Josee - glad you went to the Dr. what type of candy did he load you up on? I too had kidney stones...it causes incredible back pain. Can you do any stretches? I sent you some articles in the mail the other day on endo, etc. Heidi - when I was in the mind/body group at Boston IVF they brought 2 different couples in to speak to the group about DE and Adoption. I remember the couple that adopted was from Sudbury and they said the EXACT same thing. You want to adopt NOT because IVF failed...but because you want to adopt. My brother was adopted by the way. Tia - congratz again on your perfect lil bean! I am so happy for you and your DH! Amy - good luck today. Your day tomorrow sounds wonderful. Do you have a cute bathing suit to wear? Shawna - can't wait to hear your follie check? 12-15 is great by the way.....I would KILL FOR THAT! Wanna - How's the lupron? When is your DE expected to have her ER? Susan - i like the yellow one better too! Is that a canary diamond? Hi Everybody!!! Jen - I am wearing your necklace today. I just love it. Good vibes!!!!

Kelly - yay for spotting!! That means she is on her way and you'll be on your way!! My first lupron shot was fine and no headache today so I'm grateful for that. My donor starts stims on 7/19 with an estimated ER on 7/30 and ET on 8/4.
Heidi, from what I have read, you are a fantastic Mom to Stella and will be to any other children that come into your life. I know how you feel about the adoption and wanting to do it for the right reasons. We considered both adoption and DE and decided to try a DE cycle and then we may move on to adoption. For us, the most important thing is to have a child (or children) to share our lives with and it doesn't really matter how we get there. Have fun at the Cape today! Jossee - I hope the back starts feeling better soon! Amy, enjoy the appointment and lunch today!!

Hey Ladies!!
Jen- That sucks that those pills are so crazy expensive!! Wow! 12 pills at four hundred bucks!  Crazy!!! Hope you are feeling better soon!Amy- Good luck with your appointment today! Kelly- Fantastic news on AF arriving! We're both on our way Sweets!! Thanks everyone for thinking of me and our little follies. Now I don't quite understand how they measure them here but we have: 11- 1.1 (average) follies on the right 4- 1.0 (average) on the lazy left. So my left ovary has been here out dubbed, Lazy Lefty! But I am okay with that. With the 11 on my right and 4 on the left, we have 15 follies brewing. Take a way for failure to fertilize, transfer two....have ten left over....it's more then we could ask for. We are incrediably blessed and I am so thankful to God! I think they are dropping my meds and letting me brew for a while... exciting times!!!
