I was a little overwhelmed saying I had 13, that seems like nothing now.....how you are feeling ok.

I know! She should have gone last b/c now we will all feel inadequate after our retrievals. 51 is unheard of. I think it's a world record, for real.

Hello April Bunnies!

Ladybug20601 - HOLY SMOKES, 51 EGGS! I think that is the most I have ever heard of anyone. I really pray you don't get OHSS. Rest and Relax!

Cherymybaby - CONGRATS on the 7 fertilized eggs. Lucky ?#7. Good Luck Monday ( )! My RE hasn't said how many days of bedrest but I have been told to expect 2-5 days depending on the RE.

Tisha27 - WOOHOO on lining! One step closer to ER.

Babycrzy - Not sure where it need to be on your lining but that sounds great to me.

GracieB - you are getting close to the ER. Tomorrow is the day!

RachHorch - yes - you can have a normal cycle with AF. I had the same thing (cramps and all). Can I just ditto what Babycrzy said about the story of your nephew. I would have lost it!

LadyR - AMEN about us IVF ladies.

LittleLadySky - your way.

Well, I had my day 6 u/s and was quite disappointed. I know I need to be optimistic but for the first time my actual RE made me upset. He told me to come back today (I was thinking to make sure I wouldn't overstimulate even though my dose of FSH is not very high), well my RE never showed up. I had another RE who was wondering why he even wanted to see me today. So needless to say, I had to get up on a Saturday morning (mind you - cause I was really tired and could have slept in) and now I am finding out that I really didn't need to come in. I have to go in on Monday anyway and so they want me to keep my appointment. That is when they will do yet another u/s and b/w. Right now - I am trying to stay optimistic but I only had 4 measurable follicles (2 on right/2 on left). That seems very disappointing but I am hopeful for Monday. Sorry I was so long winded.

Poo on your doctor for making you get up on a sat morning for nothing. How much follistim are you on? Maybe they can increase it. I hope your follies will kick into high gear this weekend and everything looks good Monday.

I had the same thing with my follies only 4 but they were quality eggs that came from them. Remember it is quality over quanity

Isabel - they had me on Follistim150 & 1ml of Repronex from Days 1-3 & then from now until whenever Follistim225. I had 18 a/f on the right ovary before we started and I think that why they thought I would overstim.

Nikki, I am so sorry you had to go through that this morning. That was very inconsiderate of your RE. Did the RE that was there call yours to see why he had you come in?

Drink plenty of Gatorade. We don't want you overstimming on us! My RE actually said that Gaterade is great, but make sure you drink some other juices to neutralize all of the salt in Gaterade. Don't worry about the number of follies. You still have 4-5 more days of stimming based on your est. ER and it is amazing how they can grow at the end. Sometimes you get more than 1 egg out of each follicle. .... We just need to keep you hydrated and well rested!

Thanks Cathyh for fixing my mess-up on the list - I have a hard time keeping up with the newest one as you see. Good thing we have computer savay ladies like yourself!!!!

Okay - Now I have a TMI question - while on the later part of stims does anyone have any mucusy discharge? Sorry that sounds so gross! I dont feel like there is any infection thing going on! Any suggestions?

I did with my first iVF though I had Ovulated but I didn't. I wouldn't worry about it unless you feel there may be more going on.

Hi April buddies!
Today I had my Day 2 u/s and b/w and I did get the green light to start stims tomorrow! I am worried that they only counted 4 antral follicles....I know that I can(hopefully WILL) have more after stimming but it seems my poor ovaries have a lot of work ahead of them. My next u/s is Wednedsay and I pray that they will see more by then. By the way....is it the Lupron shot that burns? I did my first one today and it did burn a little. I hope I remember all of this! 4 injections a day, 2 doxycyline (sp?) a day, 1 prenatal vitamin a day....take deep breaths!! How is everyone else?

I'm so happy you are about to start
