Well, I won't know anything about my next cycle until the 24th. The RE nurse told me they usually like you to take a month off and then start again. I told her I wasn't okay with that, and she told me to go ahead and start them this weekend. With that being said, I may still have to take the month off after our meeting next week.

Cathy........glad you get to start stimming tonight.

Janice.......way to go. those cyst can be a pain in the butt.

Kristen.......NYC!!! Wow that's great. You guys must be really good friends.

Cathy - I'm really glad you can start!! I'm soooo excited for you, and your follies sound fantastic. I'm really proud of you.

Jana - good for you about telling the nurse you don't want to take a month off. Be firm with your RE. It'll still be a month with the BCP and Lupron anyway. Glad you're starting again.

Janice - I'm really happy your cyst went down! Have fun stimming!!

Hi to everyone else!

Kelli!!!! I knew I was forgetting someone, I'm so sorry! I'm glad you are still lurking (I like it when you watch us...ha ha ha...). I'm so glad that you are getting the process going again...we will GET THROUGH THIS TOGETHER!!!

LOL Kate, when I read that, I kept imagining Janice from the show "FRIENDS" and her laugh and being like...oh NO!!! I can definitely understand that!

I'll let a secret out...I got a text from Janice (babybear) and her cyst has gone down...woohoo! So looks like she'll start stimming tonight

So my fun news for the day is one of my good friends is turning 40 next month and her hubby just called me and wants to fly me up to NYC to surprise her for her bday party! Woohoo! It'll be a quick trip, but still, how cool is that to get a free trip to NYC


I work in NYC - let me know when you are coming!

Jana - you asked on the old thread about PIO. I took 1 cc, and I've heard of some women taking 2cc. I would definitely ask your RE about that.

Anyone up for Friday Night Fun at the BUB? I am thinking of a scavenger hunt maybe... you would have to google to get the answers. First one back wins each round. I don't have to be the only one to come up with questions. We can all do it. If you have a scavenger hunt question, just start a new thread for it. For example, you can post:
"Who was Mick Jagger's first wife?"
Then everyone rushes off to google to track it down.
(Bianca)

We can also do things where you have to post a link, like- what did JLo wear to last year's Oscars?
I am Fashion: Oscar's 2007 Fashion
(scroll down about half way)

Hi ladies! This thread definitely has a positive vibe going. Yes my cyst went down! In fact they're calling it a follie now that it's at 8.8mm! I'm starting my stims tonight. What level of stims did y'all start ou on with your last cycle? They have me starting on 300iu of follistim and 75iu or menopur. My feeling is that this is too high because my fsh has been measured at both 4.5 and 7 and I have about18 antral follies. Kristen says I should trust the re and I know she's right but I always question.

Cathy and Liza, we are now officially cycle buddies!!! Yay!!!

More later; I'm shopping at the galleria now!

Good news, Janice! I'm so excited for you! I'm really happy you, me and Cathy are cycling together at the very same time!

I started last cycle on 150 iu Menopur and 450 Bravelle and then moved up to 225 Menopur and same Bravelle (which I think is the same as Follistim). This cycle I'm starting on 225 Menopur and the same Bravelle to see if we can get some more follies, even though my RE was happy with my 7 last time. I want MORE!! Lol I always question everything, too, like I even know what I'm talking about!

hey I'm sooooooo happy to have cycle buddies we are all starting together.

I'm not sure how the initial high E2 will effect this cycle but the fsh was still low at 6 today and it was cd5.

I'm on 300 menapur and 300 bravelle. I think I'm on the maximum dose. come on follicles

I go for b/w and u/s on the 23rd everything will be cooking
