Well, good morning. Today was my first Doxycyclin and my Lupron will be tonight. I'm excited but I also have that graduation to go to, so I'll have to sneak out at some point during the ceremony for my shot. Makes me nervous....I hope I don't drop it, or have something else happen. I'm sure I'll be okay....just thinking of all those 'what if's'. The nurse said I could put the Lupron in the fridge once I was done....guess maybe I can carry a small ice pack or something and put it in my case to keep it cold till I get back home. I don't want it to freeze though...maybe I'll just leave it as is until I get home. She said it wouldn't really make a difference in the strength of the meds, but some women did put it in the fridge after that seal was broken. Oh well, wish me luck! One week of this and then I'm on to stims! YAY

Sserchy- to the forum! I'm so sorry your 1st IVF ended so sadly. It sounds like what you are experiencing now could be implantation-I sure hope it is for you! Sorry I don't know much more about this- yet- but wanted to wish you good luck and send you .

Karystos-I don't know what is going on with your e2 levels- it does sound odd that you have good follies but a low number. If your Dr. isn't concerned- try not to worry- easier said than done. Try to trust him- keep us posted. Usually we cheer for follies- I'll cheer for your e2 levels and follies-

Inourdreams- good to hear everything went as well as it could yesterday. That sounds promising that he did the D&C yesterday- hopefully that will take care of any issues and you won't need anymore procedures. Now grow embies grow! Take it easy-keep us posted-

edited- OMG I had to fix my terrible typos! I must not be awake yet!

Good luck today Indie! I had to do one of follistim doses in the back seat of the car at a family anniversary party- it was fine- except I felt like a dork with DH practically on top of me in the back seat of the car! (No one walked by thank goodness!) You're closer and closer to stims! I never fridged my Lupron- so you'll probably be okay- but- if you use an ice pack- some of my meds were shipped with one and they didn't freeze- either way you should be good! Have fun at the graduation- it's that time of year isn't it! I think we have at least 4 parties to attend- or at least DH to sttend in the next 2 weeks!

Thanks Lindsay And good luck to you tomorrow....keep up with the gatorade! Really hoping and praying you avoid OHSS.

Inourdreams : I am glad that your ER went great.
Lindsay: Did you have to sleep then wake up for the 3am trigger.Good luck tomorrow with your ER.
I got my fertilization report this morn. Out of the 13, 11 were mature and 9 fertilized with ICSI.

[Emilysmom]

We are triggering tonight with ER planned for Saturday morning!! OMG today there are over 30 follies and I am at High Risk for OHSS. My E2 level is close to 4000. I guess I'll join the OHSS risky group. We'll all be needing to take care of ourselves.

[Emilysmom]

Lindsay--wow a 3am trigger. You must need a nap.

Indie Blue--Congrats on moving over to Lupron. It's really not bad. Maybe some headaches.

Sandy--Cramping post ET is normal . I'm sure it implantation and you'll be getting a BFP.

Migmel--Bloating and OHSS usually increase after ER. Your ovaries increase in size. Drink plenty of water and eat some protein.

Teri--Praying for your 10 embies. What is PGS? we've done PGD once?

Josephine--Great retrieval report. Log back on when DH isn't looking. we miss you.

In our dreams--Grow embryos Grow!!!

Nicole--You'll be in our Fri-Mon ER group. I have PCOS also and have 30+ follies now. The most I've ever had. Let's hope that eggs are inside. take care of yourself with water and protein.

Yoga girl--Are you getting close to ER?


Angie--The number of follies depends on each person. I've had different amounts and are on my 3rd cycle. The quality is more than the quantity. WE just need more to find the perfect litttle miracle embie. You should definitely convert to the regular oreos with the cream filling. Those 100 kcal packs are for off cycle . LOL.

I am tired from my late night meeting and early am meeting in case I missed anyone. Tried to catch up quickly.

Yes, I would stock up on that Gatorade!!!! I pray that OHSS doesn't happen....good luck at ER on Saturday!

[Linz712]

Mamashugs- Yes 3am was a litttle rough! I woke up like 3 times between 11 and 3-thinking I had missed the alarm or something! Yikes! Awesome fertilization report! Grow embies grow! When is your transfer? How many are you planning on?

Emilysmom- join the overstimmed club! Drink -drink -drink- drink- we'll cheer each other on! I have seriously thought about counting the #of trips to the bathroom today- I swear it's every 20 minutes- but I guess that's good! Good luck with the trigger!!!

I was so nervous about the trigger- I did the Novarel Intramuscular one and ovidrel. Ovidrel- was a sinch, nothing new there, but I'd never done an IM before- DH did a good job- didn't even really hurt- poke fast and inject slowly!

I've been kind of sicky/nauseaous feeling all morning- - Assuming from thr triggers- anyone else have this?

[kaym82]

Linz--We seem to be having the same symptoms. I am up all night and day going to the bathroom. It doesn't make me want to drink any more water but I am.

I have gained 4 pounds this past week.

I am also so nauseous I can hardly stand it. This happened before but I forgot until today. This happens as the E2 level rises. I don't want to eat anything much less meat/protein. One more day to go. My RE says as long as I am not vomiting it is ok.
