shelby- you are so sweet to keep up with all of us. no you have not missed it. i'm still on lupron and don't go in for bw and u/s until the 10th. hopefully that's when i'll start stims. but i'm reading all the difficulty people are having getting suppressed on lupron lately. ghost suggested that it ...

hopeful- i used to get so upset when other people were getting pregnant. my DH was the same way. one of my close friends just had her 2nd son last week. i thought it would be really hard, but i was surprised by how happy i am for her. i think i have just learned to be grateful for others blessings ...

[/b]jg and hopeful: you guys have got to let me know hos the stimming goes. from everything i've read on here, i'm terrified. [/b]
i'm glad you ladies are just a week or so ahead of me. i feel much better knowing that you're out there thinking and feeling the same things as me.

jg - never heard ...

jg_379- i think i'm just about as excited as you. i know what you mean about getting discouraged by some of what you read. there were so many variables that i didn't even consider until reading all the challenges these ladies have been through. but their bravery and persistence gives me hope. i was ...

i just started lupron on 7/31, so i've been on it for three days. i go in for bw and u/s on 8/10 and hopefully start stims that day too. so i'm about a week behind you.

hey ladies! welcome to everyone who has just joined. this site and everyone on it, is tremendously helpful.

hope this weekend was good for everyone. i started lupron on friday and so far no symptoms. is it too early for any symptoms? the first shot was the worst. dh has vowed not to help me at all ...

good question. just starting my first ivf and i'll definitely have to consider it if i get a BFP. i'm not sure what i will do yet. to my understanding the results are still out on the human trials and won't be in until late september. i need more info to make a decision. but obviously, it's a ...

hey everyone! hope everyone is having a great friday! i waiting for the nurse to call with the results of my bw and u/s so i can start lupron tonight. for those who have done shots before, any tips or advice? i'm terrified!

i'm about to start my first ivf cycle. i start lupron tomorrow, but i have been doing acupuncture for 2 weeks now. so far it has helped me relax. i feel i am able to sleep more peacefully and wake up without being sooo groggy. i read that it helps with the massive amounts of anxiety we feel ...

NY4THTRY- you don't know me, but i can tell you're struggling today. but the keyword is TODAY. you are very strong and courageous to remain hopeful and positive through the roller coaster rides of infertility. you are down for only a moment. it will pass and you will get back to the PMA that you ...

shelby and lady j- congrats on AF's arrival! i think it's so crazy that we have all been excited to see AF so we can begin. lol!

AFM- i do NOT have grave's disease!!! whoooo hoooo! i called around to 4 different hospitals today to get somebody who could see me in a reasonable time. i got lucky and ...

wolfie- i'm making an appt with an endocrinologist tomorrow and i'm calling my RE. he won't be in until tuesday, but i want to make sure they got my test results and maybe the nurses could shed some light on the issue for me. ur right about the insurance for IL. i work for county government so mine ...

shelby- thanks so much for the attitude adjustment. i just have to keep reminding myself to relax and go with the flow. i have such high expectations, when things don't go according to plan, i have a melt down. i know that it's better to know now than in the middle of a pregnancy where my treatment ...

i'm so glad to be able to share this experience with you ladies. even if i do cycle in august i hope it's okay that i stay here. i'm about to go crazy and haven't even really begun yet. the clinic did give me an estimated calendar but there were no dates on it! just stuff like lupron for 10-12 days ...

hey everyone!

i'm not sure if i'll be in august or sept so i decided to post here. here's our story:

DH and I have been together for 8 yrs married for 3. we haven't used an birth control in over 5 years and i always thought is was strange that we never got pregnant 'on accident.' we have been TTC ...
