Yes, our appt today went ok. I'm officially slated for ER on 5/5 at 0930! The nurse and doctor were really clear that I may have to cancel the cycle after ER due to the risk of OHSS since I have so many follicles (they stopped counting/measuring at 20), and do a FET in their June/July uptime to let my ovaries calm down. When I got home they called with my E2 - 4091...which is really high and puts me at an even higher risk of OHSS. So, while I'm really happy that they'll probably get a lot of eggs, I'm also worried that we won't be able to do a ET this time. Trigger tonight at 1100 pm! Wish me luck! Thanks for asking too, BTW.

When I was working in the office, we used to give our patients Provera and always told them that day 1 was when they started bleeding after they finished the meds. Every doctor is different though, maybe you'll want to clarify! Shoot, I was hoping you'd have gotten AF on your own by now. Bummer! You'll get over this hurdle very soon...

Have a super weekend!

Wow that is high. I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you! Drink lot's of gatorade, smart water and eat protein.

Successful ET today!

Thanks to Kaym82 for starting my thread! Keep your chin up, AF will come soon. Positive thoughts. You're on your way

Thanks for all the sticky vibes Natenang654

Shasta - Kelly and I didn't know each other before meeting on this message board a couple of days ago.

We actually just met today in person before our ETs which was very cool.

Mama2Caden - congrats on your follies !!

Martieroo good luck on cinco de Mayo!

Hopeful mama - I'm that you wont get your cycle cancelled.



Official Update : ET went smoothly today. I got home and really crashed. I was up for a while and then got really sleepy again. They put in both of my embabies and said one was way ahead of schedule in development. They gave us a 60 percent chance. Both Kelly and I got piccies of our little embabies which was so cool. I think they look like my hubby

How soon till the pregnancy hormones kick in I wonder? I'm curious if that is why I slept so much today.

Wendy

This is our month ladies!!! I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of BFPs really soon. Good luck to those of you who have already or are about to go through ER and ET. I'm stimming now, so it shouldn't be too much longer. (that should cover us all)

Hi May Ladies,
I am new to the forum, I am cycle day 4 on IVF #3.
Just got my result from today, E2 is only up to 89. Has anyone else ever started low with E2 level? last two times on day 4 I was much higher so I am afraid I will be cancelled.

Awesome retrieval Wendy !

Good luck to all!!!!!!!!!

Sherri - the laies on this thread are great!!

I am on my fist IVF (assuming it doesn't get cancelled - will find out about this tomorrow) so I don't know much about the bw etc. My RE doesn't give you any numbers unless you ask and only tells you if there is a problem. I should prob ask about some of these numbers everyone keeps mentioning. Someone should have an idea though - everyone here is very knowledgeable. I'll be that you don't get cancelled.

Well trigger shot went well last night. Didn't feel a thing, iced that sucker for 15 min. Felt a little nauseous but not that bad. Going in at 9:00 am tomorrow. Lining looks wonderful 3 great layers. Hoping to get some great little eggies out of the deal
