LauraN - What does it mean to get organized? I got second shipment today. How do I get organize?

AFM - I noticed in my schedule that the baseline ultrasound is on the first or second day of my period. OMG, really? I guess doctors are used to this but I am mortified!!

Cyn- congrats on starting your shots. When we started the IVF process, I was under the impression it was one shot per day. I was really shocked when someone told me they had to do 5. I am still in denial  LauraN – What did the BCP do to you last time? I had never been on the BCP (NEVER!). I started...

Me again. REALLY freaking out now. This is what's going on with the drugs... (FYI. I am covered through United Healthcare and have to buy the drugs through their prefered supplier i.e. Medco) 3/5: Hospital faxed prescription to MDR and ask me to initiate shipping. I call right away to initiate shipp...

Wow - you guys move fast! I had a crazy week at work so catching up now. WeHaveHope - Not a basketball fan. In fact, I really know nothing about basketball. :( I got my schedule. I start the injections on March 18th. I am FREAKING out because the drugs have not yet been shipped (we're on the 11th). ...

Thanks for the tips! I've told one person at work (not my boss) because it doesn't really matter. I am in consulting and my management doesn't care when or what I am doing as long as I get it done. I am accountable to clients - my boss knows very little about my day to day job. There will be people ...

*Knock Knock* Is this where one start? :) I've been lurking for a while! I started my first IVF cycle today with the birth control pill so I thought it would be a good time to join in officially. Questions for everyone... #1 How did you manage your appointments (ultrasounds, blood work, etc) with yo...

I don't remember my doctor mention doing a mock transfer. When do they happen? Are they always required?

Since I am having a laparoscopy, is it possible he can get similar information (measurements?) without doing a mock transfer? Thanks!

Hi, -I am being put on birth control pill on Jan 29th (CD 1) -I need to have a laparoscopy (Feb 3, on CD 6) to remove cysts and my blocked tubes. -My post-surgery appointment is scheduled on Feb 29 (CD 6 of my next cycle), about a month after the surgery. When do you think I can do IVF? Could it be ...

Hi everyone, My saline sonogram is scheduled this Friday. It will be day 5 of my cycle so I might have some mild spotting. Is that going to be OK or will the doctor reschedule? I am in a bit of a tricky situation since I ovulate on CD 11 so only a couple of days to actually do the sonogram and they ...

Thank you!

Hi everyone, I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer for on Dr.Google. What kind of uterine issues may lead to not being able to get pregnant, even with surgery? A few years ago, my appendix leaked and caused my tubes to be blocked. It didn't occur to me until I started the IVF process...
