Re: IVF clinics in NYC

I would recommend RMA of NY. I can't compare it to anywhere else but I think the doctors are very experienced and the embryologists are fantastic. It's a little bit like a factory, but I didn't care. I was there for results not to make new relationships. And I am pregnant after one IVF cycle...thank ...

Re: Summer 2011 Pregnancy Group - Welcome! Pg.1 Has Intros!

Annashope- Wanted to respond to ur question about feeling so hungry. I'm 12 weeks and 4 days and since about 10 and a half weeks was experiencing extreme hunger (plus the usual nausea, vomiting, and heartburn).

Re: IVF success or getting pregnant stories wanted!

Hi all,

Just notice this thread and since you're looking for success stories I'm happy to share mine. We started our first round of IVF in September 2010, had 22 eggs retrieved, 21 fertilized with ICSI and, and 2 blasts transfered on Oct 7th. Science, miracle, and God came together and one was ...

Re: MUMS TO BE JUNE 2011- buddies pls ;0)

Hi all, is there room for me? I'm brand new to the site and looking for some support this pregnancy. It's my second child, and my first conceived with ART. We've had several losses in the year leading up to this and I'm a little reserved about it. I don't have any signature worked out yet, so for ...

Re: Article link: Local Dr. disagrees w/Nobel for IVF

This article is deplorable. First of all Nobel prizes are awarded for outstanding contributions to science and medicine. Regardless of whether or not the world is overpopulated, the science and technology of IVF is indubitably an outstanding contribution to science. Secondly, I wonder what type of ...

PIO injections

Hi all,

I started PIO injections about 2 and half weeks ago. I'm on 1 cc of progesterone and it's prepared in sesame oil (I do not have any sesame or nut allergies that I know of). The first few nights I injected into my thigh muscle and ended up barely being able to walk, no exaggeration from ...

Re: trying for number two--is it any easier?

Dont know about having 1 and wanting the second as we are currently waiting and praying for # 1...but we want 5 all together, so as stressful as this has been I know it'll be worth it in the end! So if you want more try for more. Just remember to keep everything in perspective (you have a beautiful ...

Re: 1st ER Tues-nervous

It's worth it when you get your BFP! PIO injections hurt much less in the butt (upper butt) by the way. I've been doing them for a couple weeks now...at first I was in hell, but eventually you get used to it. I def look like a pin cushion but I'm telling you it gets better! Keep that positive ...

Re: 1st ER Tues-nervous

ER went pretty smooth. They got 17 eggs! My left side is really sore and Dr said to watch for signs of OHSS. But I think that I am doing ok :) .

Congrats!
A little piece of advice: My dr told me I was at a particularly high risk for OHSS. I ended up being fine, thank god and I think the trick ...

Re: 1st ER Tues-nervous

krisnjer- I don't know what your previous surgeries were like but ER is not bad! The worst part for me was the 20 minute wait after the retrieval with a full bladder! At first I had some bleeding and cramping, which nurse said might have been a little worse than usual since they retrieved 22 eggs ...
