Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

I'm such an idiot....I've been freaking out all day and then POAS and it was NEGATIVE. I'm only on day 6 after a 3dt so do you think it is too early? I go on Tuesday for my beta. I feel so down right now. I've been strong through this whole process but I feel like I'm falling apart right now. UGH ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Hello everyone.....just a quick update on me. I'm of course in the 2WW! Going a bit crazy but all seems to be ok. My 1st beta is scheduled for next Tuesday the 26th. I'm definitely anxious about that.

I have to say that I am so bummed. We had 2 embryos that we transferred and 2 that we were hoping ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Sonya,

32 eggs!!!! OMG! that's a LOT! Congrats for your fertility report. I'm only 33 and got 7 good ones. I wonder why I got such a low number being that I don't have any "true" fertility issues. I guess everyone is different. I live in Fredericksburg, VA....I go to Richmond IVF. I'm definitely ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Hello ladies! I had my ET today. Everything went well except for last night before the ET I came down with a fever. 101.5 or so. My ER gave me antibiotics via a shot and then a prescription antibiotic to take for 5 days. He tends to think my fever is up due to the inflammation following the ER. I ...

Re: New to infertility and IVF

Hello!!! I have been through the same thing. My ER was the same day as yours and I had the same exact situation as you. I went to my ER today and it seems like I have blood that has pooled in my abdomen. He said that was "normal" but would definitely cause discomfort. You should probably go in and ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Baby blu -

I was in misery these past few days. I had my ER on Tuesday and today I look like I'm 3 months pregnant. My RE is in Richmond (about an hour away from my house) so he asked me to come in today to get checked out. It looks like I have blood that has pooled in my abdomen. That's why I'm ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Hi Lou,

Thanks for the response. That does make sense regarding the number of embies I have. Thanks again for the advice.

Sorry your headache is back. :cry: I'm sure that feels horrible. Hope it passes soon.

Thanks again!

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Oh....one more question ladies. :D

My RE has decided to to a 3 day transfer. Is that common for ICSI? I know that the 5 day can implant easier but is this common? I just want the best chance to get a BFP. Why would he do a 3 day vs. a 5 day? Any advice would help.

THANKS!!!! Hope everyone is ...

Re: Fall 2010 Cycle Group

Hello everyone! :D I'm definitely feeling better. I seriously thought I was going to die last night! :cry: I was in so much pain. My DH had no idea what to do for me but I do have to say that he was so great through the entire process. Thank God for Vicodin! :D

I still have pain but not as much ...

Hello "FALL CYCLERS!" :D

This is my first post on this board. I see that you all are very active so I hope you don't mind a "new" person in your group!

My ER is scheduled for around the 12th of October and ET soon after that. My DH and I are doing IVF with ICSI. He just had his biopsy on Friday ...

Hello everyone.....I'm happy to say that I started stims tonight. Quick question for those who have been on Follistim before. My RE has me on 300iu for 3 days and then 225iu for 2 days while I take the Menupour. I then go next Wednesday for a u/s and labwork....Is that a normal amount? It seems SO ...

Re: First time ICSI/IVF cycle

Thanks so much for the response. I'm definitely anxious...excited and a little scared! :roll:

How was the "hyper stim?" I'm afraid of that, too but I guess you can't worry about things that are out of your control, right?

I will definitely cross my fingers for you. This forum has been wonderful ...
