Cheli!!! Congrats on getting started stimming. I would not worry about the spotting, from what I understand that is normal but I would ask when tomorrow when you get there just to be sure.

Stacey - I'm with you! I'm very much a positive person so I have a hard time when I see sad or negative posts. I just try to keep the positive thoughts going on my end and continue to post positive posts regardless of someone else's negative ones. I actually find a lot of comfort supporting other people through their hard times, I don't know if that is good or bad for me or not, but it makes me feel better...LOL. I'm glad that you are doing ok so far on the stims though...I'm right behind ya!!

Faith - How did you get all this extra med?? Did the dr help you out?? THat's great that you've got enough to get you through!

Sadly no...the RE's didn't help me out. I got enough Menopur through divine intervention....a miracle of sorts The GonalF I had to purchase more....as I told her I had enough to last me a few more days on Friday and she said "well, I want you to get enough to last you through atleast Monday".....umm, well okay? Sadly I didn't get it ordered until I got back home so it won't be delivered until Tuesday. I just mixed a vial of 450iu last night....and used a little bit of it, maybe 50iu? Normally they have 675iu in them, so I think I can still get 300 out of it for tonight and 300 out of it tomorrow night. If I draw it up and it's only 275 or so though...it'll just have to do

Wouldn't that be something to go tomorrow and be ready to trigger....then I just ordered 2 extra vials for nothing LOL I just want the little ones to be caught up....so I ordered enough thinking that I could stim through Wednesday or Thursday maybe? My largest ones were 13.5 and my smallest ones were 9....so again, kind of hard to know when the little ones catch up without losing the big ones...etc. I don't know how the RE's do it LOL

Hey everyone!

Kristen, I'm so glad you asked about Lua, I've been worried about her, I hope she is okay!

Shannon, how did your ER go today? Hope it went great!

Mandi, congratulations!!!! So happy for you!

Courtney--good luck on your ER tomorrow!

So I had my ER this morning and they got 18 eggs!! I was completely shocked because I only had 13 that were 15 and above! Now just anxiously awaiting the fert report tomorrow.

Thanks all for your good wishes and support!!

[Passionscientist]

Babywishes - 18 is awesome!!! Can't wait to hear the fertilization report! Relax now and drink your gatorade!!!

Faith - I just love that divine intervention stuff!

Kari - Any news from Courtney on her ER??

So funny story from yesterday...I had to support the shuttle launch so I had to be at work around 5:30 am...so since I usually do the Lupron at 7 am, I just filled up a syringe and put it in a baggie and took it to work. Well, I forgot that I had to have my bags searched by security when I enter the control center, so I pulled the ziploc with the needle out and was like, it's nothing bad I promise. I could just see him thinking about what to do with this woman carrying a needle filled with something into a control room during the launch...but I promised to not poke anybody else but myself with it and he let me through. I was afraid he was going to make me do the shot in front of him or something. LOL.

Wow, I'm surprised he let you through too....are you in a high security area? Again, surprised that he didn't confiscate it or something...or make you take it right there LOL I guess he could have kept it with him and you could have revisited him at 7am to give it to yourself LOL

[IndieBlue]

Kristen, I see you're putting me with an ER of 6/4....is that your official guess LOL Like I said...I need to set up a poll or something. I'm looking forward to tomorrow....praying this weekend did some good and that larger dose of GonalF and Menopur has finally done it's job.

Oh and I know it's a TON of work to keep up with that list....I don't know how you do it. I'm amazed everytime I sign on and see everyone's updates....you're definitely on top of it

OPTIMISM!!! Well, I knew it wasn't going to be the 3rd, since you weren't triggering tonight, but I have a feeling you may get the go tomorrow! I hope you do anyway!!

It's not that hard to keep up, I just hope I don't forget someone!!

[foxracergirl97]

I am so glad to see that so many of you have gotten your BFP and I have high hopes for the rest of you. I didn't get my BFP from the trial but did find out the real issues behind my infertility which was a plus. I just finished with my first surgery and hoping to move to the next step.
I am spreading and !!!!

I wish you all the best and I hope that I get back to the IVF thread with lots of happenings soon!

[Saschia]

Oh man, I had horrible cramps/pains after retrieval. I had to go back in the next day for an U/S it was so bad and they said it looked like I had a cyst and it was probably aggravated quite a bit by the retrieval. It went away after a couple of days (and some vicodin). LOL. I don't remember bleeding, but I would imagine some spotting is normal. Hope you feel better!! Congrats on the 10 great eggs!!!

[babydust***]

Shannon & Babywishes - Congrats on you ER!!!!! Looking forward to hearing your fertilization reports!!!! Shannon - I was very sore after ER. Nothing like I expected. I was only going to take off 2 days of work but I stayed home the whole week to get ready for ET. I was not expecting it at all. So yes what you are feeling is normal. At least from my experience. Good luck to you!!! Thanks for the congrats I received on the BFP!!!! I know that everybody else is way on their way to their BFP's!!!!!!!!Mandi

[IndieBlue]

Okay....another embarrassing question LOL Umm, the past 2 days I've felt like I'm severely constipated (pain in my lower abdomen...almost like a pressure). I'm having regular **'s, so could it be constipation or is this just the feeling of my ovaries?

I'm tempted to take something for constipation.....just in case as I don't want to go in to ER with any backups.....I've heard the meds do a number on you in that manner, so I don't want a double dose LOL

Just wanted to know maybe if the pressure from growing follicles could feel like this?

Thanks!

[babywishes13]

Shannon, I feel exactly the same way, I was in a lot of pain when I first woke up, they had to pump me full of pain meds! I'm feeling a lot better now. They had told me before that I would have some spotting, and I did. So I think that's normal. Congrats on 10 eggs that is great!! Good luck on your fertilization report tomorrow!

[IndieBlue]

Too funny.....it blocked out the letter b and the letter m.....umm, okay?
