Hi Dallas,
Please don't take my experience as golden! My RE said this works for 85% and we just fell into that small group of failures. It's definately worth a try for you. I'm just in a funk this week because of the BFN that I got Monday. Hey, if I come up with the cash I'd like to try another ...

Hi All,
We did donor cycles for my last 2 and they both were negative. We used a 27 year old with 2 kids and she only got 8 eggs with 5 fertilized. Out of th 5, 4 were good 1 fragmented. We transferred 2 in Dec and 2 fosty blasts in Feb both neg! So disappointing!!! :( :( That was 11 grand down the ...

Hi Lou,
Again, I'm soo thrilled for you and soo happy to hear from you!!! The test was negative again. :( I'm changing RE's. I'm so done with this place. My current RE's next available appt isn't till the 30th. Such a joke to make someone with 4 failures to wait that long to discuss the cycle ...

Hey Lou,
OMG!!!!! I'm sooo happy 4 u!!!! :D I'm thrilled to hear u r PG!, finally after all uv been thru!!! I've been in mymown pity party for the last few months. I did a donor in Dec. but she sucked as a performer, only 5 eggs with 4 fert. Implanted 2 in Dec 3 day but didn't work. Implanted 2 ...

Hi all,
Just a quick post. Still in donor limbo. Not much to report on that. Got the cost estimate more than I want to spend but it'll be worth it. I've been crazy busy again, still trying to catch up after the big wedding I did last week. House was a mess and Dh tried but couldn't keep up. I'll ...

Hi All,
Hope everyone's having a nice weekend. The weather's great here in Chi-Town! 80s and sunny! 8) Sorry about being MIA! I had a huge wedding to do this weekend. It had 4 stops with set up. The bride was very disorganized! She had beautiful placecards with no table numbers on them, WTF!!! :roll ...

Hi All,
Sorry to be MIA but I needed to process everything. I know my eggs are old :( so I'm pretty sure at this point I'll never have my own child again. DH and I had the donor talk yesterday. He seems to be agreeable to that. He knows how bad I want this and knows we can't wait much longer. He ...

Hi All,
It's done! BFN!! :cry: I knew it was over because of all my PMS symptoms. I also swear I saw them both come out. I don't know where to go from here but I don't see the RE until the 20th. Hoping he'll give me a phone consult before that. If I actually looked or felt my age I can understand ...

Hi All,
Yeah, still haven't POAS! :roll: I'm about ready to because I have a terrible headache which must be a migraine because it isn't responding to Tylenol. Unfortunately that's all I can take if I'm pg. My migraine medicine usually knocks it right out but I can't take it until I know for sure. I ...

Hi All,
NOPE!!! NO WAY!!! UH UH!!! NOT GONNA!!! UGH!!! :roll: I won't POAS!!! OK! I've officially hit crazy town in a big way! :? Trying sooo hard to stay away from Target or the drug stores today! I'm just too afraid to get my hopes up or dumped before beta on Friday. I'm feeling VERY hormonal ...

Franny,
Glad to hear your DH is doing OK. Oh Hun, please hang in there! You transferred 3 so you could still have something in there. Don't give up yet. You've been through so much. You and Barry are both in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to you!

Hi All,
I saw "Maybe Baby" with Joely Richardson and Hugh Laurie a few weeks back. It is a very true to life depiction of IVF or IUI don't remember but it was an ART. It had quite a bit of British satire thrown in which made it hilarious at some times. Don't want to give away the ending but it shows ...

Hi All,
Trying to stay out of crazytown. The wait is killing me. I still don't want to torture myself with those evil sticks. Ugh!! :roll: I'm anxious about beta but even more anxious about the 12 wk wait for the testing. I know the huge risks for genetic problems at my age and I can't stop thinking ...

Hi All,
Just have a few minutes. Ok! I'm getting a little nervous! I'm still not feeling much. No spotting or discharge just sore boobs and butt (from PIO). :? I just think I should be feeling something! Nurse said this is normal. Hope she's right! Trying not to torture myself by poas. Trying to ...

Hi All,
Just wanted to check in quick with my girls. Not much going on here. Went for progesterone test today. They said if it's lower than 25 I'd have to up my dose :twisted: Ugh! Thankfully it was 26.6...Yay! 8) I would not have wanted to inject any more than I already am. Other than the sore ...
