Ghost-

My RE prescribed cytotec to soften my cervix prior to ET. I took it vaginally last night and had horrible cramping and light bleeding. My beautiful lining was perfect and 9mm yesterday. I am on day 8 of stims. My clinic does day 2 transfers and I suspect I will be triggering tomorrow night ...

blessed- we have a great group of ladies on FB. Come join us! Congrats on getting going again. I will be stimming in October but no transfer until later (we are doing genetic testing prior to an FET). Good luck to you.

Hello out there in IVF land??? Hello???

I head out to Colorado tomorrow for our one day work up. So excited! Thinking of you all and miss this thread!

Thanks for checking in on us longtimer.

Hey Chris! Yes I did and will ship the one frozen embryo to them. Just waiting on AF to schedule a trip out for our initial work up. So excited and nervous at the same time. Thanks for stalking, I have been traveling on business and haven't been able to update.

How is life as a mother of 2?

Ladies ...

Hwilsonfarms- welcome to the board. I agree with Kristy- you are very young and have time and egg quality in your favor. I am confident you will be one of our success stories! May I ask why the doctor recommended going straight to IVF? I too went straight to IVF after having tubes removed due to ...

Christy- thanks for your story. Our recent loss is our first loss ( well second really if you count a chemical I had in our first cycle). We have transferred 17 embryos now and are considering testing to improve our chances. Praying for a great ultrasound for you.

Lindsay- sorry it's so expensive ...

Congrats on team blue Christy!!!

Dawn- I don't know how I missed the details, but I am so excited that things progressed so well and you heard that heart beat. Praying everything goes well at the OB.

I bought new running shoes today, always warms my heart and gets me geeked to train.

Welcome back and congrats on being PUPO Felicia. I remember you, can't believe your DS is already 1!

Cristie- thanks and good luck on Friday. I called my clinic and we will do a beta but I don't feel like I need one yet since the process just started and my levels were over 10,000 last week. I feel ...

ironchef- the 2ww is so hard!!! Praying it is all worth it for you.

Christy- sounds like a wonderful and busy evening. You are smart to let someone else take Christmas... I hosted when I was a month away from Ev's due date and ended up in the hospital with bleeding and contractions :-0. Consultation is July 10th with my RE and July 16th with CCRM. My Current RE's ...

Yay for being PUPO iron chef!

Thanks Cristie. I read that some women like the closure of a D&C and I didn't understand why someone would want to do something so invasive. Fast forward a few days and I am going crazy waiting to move on from this. I totally get it. I am sorry you are hurting and cried all the way home from the ...

I have one 5 day compacted morula. We are going to transfer it and then consider moving to a new RE for another fresh if that doesnt work. Thanks.

Just an update- I don't know if you all use any of this for research.

My beta doubled well again to 1440 at 25 dpo. Then to 2104 at 26 dpo. Then I went on vacation and had a u/s on Tuesday at 33 dpo. I had an empty sac measuring 5 weeks 2 days and I was 6 weeks 5 days. Beta was over 10,000. So now ...

Hey ladies- sorry I haven't updated. It has been a tough couple of days. as Sunshine indicated, our ultrasound on Tuesday did not go well. Blighted ovum (AKA empty gestational sac). The sac measuered 5 weeks 2 days and I was 6 weeks 5 days. They suspect I will need a D and C but we are going to give ...
