Update
Parishoners – Good luck today!!!
Hopeful1 – 17 eggs WOW!! I am looking forward to hearing about your fert report.   Shellc, Moogoo, and justbreathe Lizzie518 – I would say the same thing if I lost my phone. Everything is in my phone since it is a Palm and Phone in one. I would be lost. I would have no idea when my doctors appointments are or even phone numbers to call anyone. Dizzylille – 14 eggs is GREAT!!! How was the fert report? Amybeth – I everything turns out ok.Ladeebugg – I hope your surgery goes well. Has anyone seen Thorbear? I hope she is doing ok. It looks like everyone is moving forward. As for me I will be going in for u/s and b/w tomorrow and hoping to start stims tomorrow night. Hot flashes, chills, bloating, and Lupron headaches are still hanging around. I don't remember having this many side affect during my last cycle. I am hoping this is a good sign. I thought I would share this to give some comedy relief. My DH accumulated yet another stray dog over the weekend. So now we have 3 dogs. Keep in mind that our last name is Rapp. We have a beagle named Christmas, a Dobberman named Maude Gangsta, and now a pit bull named Bum. Names of  dogs are rynalds and seran. I have refused to let him even consider any of these names for our children.

Tina- I could not stop laughing! Those names are hilarious! At our vet clinic, they call the pet in by first and last name. I could just imagine sitting there with Maude Gangsta Rapp! I am glad you have put your foot down with him on baby names!
As far as lupron, I feel your pain! It is getting the best of me too. What wonderful things we have to look forward to with menopause later on!

AmyBeth - Oh no, you are so close!! I am also doing the polyp away cheer, it DID work for a good outcome for me!
 We are all thinking of you and sending prayers. If are forced to cancel, you should investigate frozen transfer success rates, as I have heard that they are really not much lower than fresh, and you can see alot of women on here who had failed IVFs but then got with their FETs.Ladee- Good luck on your surgery! You are moving one step closer! Missanry - congrats on the meds! I agree that you should check with your clinic - there may be needles and alcohol swabs, syringes, etc that are still ok! Extras are always good, I have gone through a few "mess-up" needles and syringes in this process! JonesNicky - The only time we will say- hooray for !Sarae- I also remembered that you were on lupron a long time - they may have given you a larger dose of stims to start to wake everything back up and then decreased to a more normal amount because you responded appropriately. Either way, you are responding well! Hopeful - 17 is awesome! Congrats, can't wait for the fertilization report!! Katie- I'm glad they are giving you a chance to cycle, even though you are unsure of the outcome. At least you will definitely have an answer one way or the other at the end. Starting to for TESE sperm!!!To the newcomers, we are glad to have you.Where is Thorbear?? I hope she is ok!

Ultrasounds 2- I have 16 follies, 8 on left and 8 on right. The doc says its very early and they might not all grow, but it is a good start. I am very happy with this number!!

Hopeful1!!!!!17 is AWESOME!!!!! I am so freakin happy for you!! Now we just pray for all to fertilize!
Katie: We are dealing with male factor also. So I sympathize. I am praying for your guy's boys (as we call them here). Ladee: Stupid insurance. No anesthesia? You will be fine though. Vicodin usually knocks me on my tail anyway. GOOD luck!! Parishoners: Good luck! Thinking about you!! We got our fertility report this morning: Out of 14 eggs, 11 were mature and 8 fertilized. We only had 4 fertilize last cycle so we are quite pleased. NOW we are just waiting to see if they keep dividing. AUGHGHGH!!!!!!!!!!! I hate this part. DH stayed up ALL NIGHT, I kid you not, re-organizing closets. I mean what the?!! I am in more pain after this retrieval so I slept about 16 hours yesterday. It was awesome. I think we deal with stress differently. (Now he's looking at a cell division video on Youtube). I started the Endometrin inserts this morning. It's so disconcerting how they make you feel absolutely preggars....

Yea Hopeful1 - 17 is great! I'm so happy for you and DH. Now take time to rest and sleep! DizzyLily - 8 fertilized is great! I'm glad you got a good fertilization report! Do you know when you transfer is going to be? AmyBeth - I'm hoping and praying for good news about the possible polyp. Tina - at first I read the dog names, and stupid me... didn't put them with the last name... duhhh... Hillarious! I think you should probably be in charge of picking your childrens' names!! LOL Sara - our schedules are going to be identical apparently! After my BW this am, I also am supposed to cut my dose in half for both meds. I think that our E2 levels must have gone up faster/more than they expected, so they are dropping the dose because of that. Your first US is tomorrow?!?!?! Woohoo!! I am anxious for mine on Thursday. Thorbear! Last time you were missing, I threatened to send a search party for you, and you showed up again, so.... come back soon, or else, the search party is coming for you! Bye for now!

Polyp turned fibroid
Hello Ladies
Well I'm all finished with the hysteroscopy and the polyp removal. He actually thinks it was a fibroid. I guess the difference is the fibroid goes more into the muscle of the uterus. The procedure was very uncomfortable, as he kept having to go back in to grasp more then go in and "take another look". I'm glad he finished when he did cuz I was about done. Actually I was going to due whatever it took cuz I didn't want to have to postpone the cycle at all. I figured if I am going to eventually pass a baby from "down there" I better toughen up. lol He was going to sent the fibroid to pathology for a check. I will be starting my Lupron tomorrow, YEAH!!! On to the next step. I will be injecting into my thigh not my stomach. Anyone else doing their Lupron there? Also gave them the BIG check today. No turning back.... Thanks for all the support!!! Anyone heard from Amybeth? She was in my thoughts and prayers today. I hope all went well. Bridget

Hi Everyone - I just wrote a long response to everyone and lost it! UGGGGGGGGGGGGG I will try to remember what I wrote.
Thanks to everyone for your good wishes!!! I am in a little bit of pain following the ER- I was told to drink lots of sport drinks to avoid OHSS. Thanks to everyone who updated themselves on our list. I don't mind updating it but I warn you unfortuately I am not the most organized person -(I hope ThorBear is ok) Maybe everyone could cut and past as they progress? I was thinking also to take your self off steps completed (ie: I took my self off stims and waiting for AF) Let me know what you all think - like I said if you prefer one person to update I don't mind, but if everyone wants to participate I am fine with that also. If you want me to update please send PM with info otherwise it is too tough for me to keep up  ladeebugg - So happy that procedure is over and behind you! Now you can focus on your cycle!! dizzylille - 8 WOW! Terrific!! divide babies dividemichellep-YEA!!! 16 Fantastic number - and be prepared they told me 10 going in the surgical room and I came out with 17 - those follies like to hide. tinarapp - great puppy names!! Thanks for the laugh!
