Hi Ladies! I have been MIA for a long time now, I have been trying to figure out if I want to go through IVF again. I thought my decision was made and it was a Big No, but after checking up on you guys I am kind of thinking I should try it again. I met with RE and he wants me to do it in April. He ...

Welcome A & J goch- I am sorry for your negative results. I just finished 1st round of IVF and on 2-11-09 I got a negative result. I am currently waiting patiently for my RE appointment on 2-27-09 to go over everything. I feel like giving my body a rest before I do this again. So that is my plan if ...

Waiting for 4- I am very sorry abvout your BFN. I know how upsetting it can be. Take some time to collect your thoughts and remember you have all of your buddies waiting right here when you need us.

Congratulations Jenn!

Hi Dawn, I just completed IVF with ICSI. As far as the protocol it is different for everyone. I was on a lot of meds, my body didn't respond as well as the RE hoped. But I am a lot older than you, 35. Expect to be at the RE's office approx. every other day for bloodwork and ultrasound. We had to ...

when we went to injection class the nurse told DH to rub the area a little after shot cause it is so thick. He did and I didn't get any lumps.

ntrlmystc79-I am very sorry your 1st IVF didn't work. I also got a BFN on 2-11-09 so I know how frustrating it is. I questioned doing this again,not because I am wondering why it didn't work, but I question if I want to go through the actual process. I hated it. I hate the fact that I had to get an ...

Hello Ladies! Well Valentine's Day was nice even though DH got hurt at work (he is doing fine) and then made me think all day he didn't have time to get me anything! We went out to dinner and I lectured him on how he had 364 days to plan something because it falls on the same date every year. Well ...

Congratulations and Happy Valentine's Day to all of you with BFP's! That is awesome news!

JennLB25-thats aweful, go right ahead and complain! You will make it through this and turn out just fine! I feel the same way about my boss but that is on a daily basis, no matter if i am on stims, if AF is coming or whatever!

Thanks again to all of you. Its amazing how everyone keeps up with all of these posts!I am sorry that I usually batch thank yous and congrats but it is a little hard for me to get computer time.

anxious -i did feel alot of activity going on in my ovaries also.

tburks -i actually like my RE a ...

Thanks again to everyone !You ladies are the best. Today my step-son got into a little trouble at school so my DH had to address that so we really didnt get a chance to talk about anything. Then I called my Mom who I do not tell many details because she has a lot of drama at her house with my sister ...

Thank you Ladies for all of your encouragement! However, I did get a BFN. The RE said to come in for FSH test on the 2nd or 3rd day of my AF (anyone know when I can expect it?) and then we will have a sit down and disccuss the future. I have had a lot of negative thoughts about the IVF process and ...

Well sorry to brake the great trend we've had but it was a BFN! Thank you Ladies for all of the well wishes!
