Hi Nickster,

Sorry to hear about your negative and also of your allergy condition to the progeterone, wow, that makes it even more fun huh?? I wonder if there is a substitute for prog. I dont recall hearing of one but also have never paid much attention to it either...I hate it too for other ...

Hi Sharon,

Don't know a lot about infection during IVF, sounds like its not all that uncommon though so hopefully it won't cause any issues for your embies. I just wanted to give you my 2 cents...it is standard protocol at my clinic to do a vinegar douche the night b/f ER and the morning of ER ...

Hi Nickster,

Did you actually get your blood work results back? So sorry if your fears were confirmed, sucks.
Since I am very type A I am actually planning on doing the next cycle which in my clinic would mean ET would end up happening end of April. I think this all depends on getting my period ...

Hi girls,

Well, I'm out, got a big fat Negative. This sucks! I'm so dissapointed, I was hoping this time was different, that maybe it would work the first go but of course not, crap. Never get frosties, always have to do the whole thing again, ugh.
I hope you all get positive results and don't ...

Hi Wannababy,

I hear you! This is so freakin hard! I too am hoping the hunger is related to having a BFP, that is the way to think.

I've gotten waaay to carried away with hpt's and very discouraging, I thought I saw a very faint line the other day and now it's not there, I tried the same test with ...

Hi girls,

Well, I have been taking numerous hpts, I know bad girl, but can't help myself... on two of them out of 4 or 5 can't remember had like a shadow of a shadow of a line, it's so hard to say it was a line b/c maybe my mind is putting it there, some of the tests showed no line at all but just ...

Nickster,

So sorry you got a neg on your hpt, they are awful! I don't know what to tell you, I guess I'd feel the same way too but still you never know, there are some awfully low betas out there early on so remember, it's not over till it's over.
I've been feeling awful today, very teary just ...

Hi Mrs Lopesz,

Sorry to hear about your chemical, I had one too, really hard. I hope you have a big fat positive this time. I've been really hungry lately too, hmm.
2ww's are soooo tough and I just can't resist the dollar store hpt's, I have no willpower, ugh! Your better off not messin' with them ...

Hi, yeah I took it at 2:30am b/c I always seem to have to go in the middle of the nite and that was a 5hr wait so figured it was like my morning pee. It actually kind of had a teeny tiny tiny bit of pink tinge but I think you have to be a wacko like me to see it but the problem is, it more than ...

Hey there, well, I haven't been spotting, which is bothersome b/c I know a lot of girls do but I have been cramping but we can really chalk that up to the proj, are you doing shots and supps? that's what they have me on. I wonder though about a couple of pulse like twinges I've felt, guess it could ...

Hi Nickster,

Thanks for your response, it feels good to have someone feel the same way, my DH thinks I'm a wacko and should just wait for the beta but I just feel strange and eating all the time. I told him I sure hope I'm preggo otherwise I have some serious dieting ahead, I'm kind of a lean ...

Hi there,

This is my 4th ICSI cycle (have beautiful 14mo dd from 3rd) and had ET on 2/14. The 2ww is maddening, trying to grab onto any positive symptom I can. I read a list of symptoms that proj causes but didn't see hunger or the kind of shaky feeling I have, that one might go under light ...

Hi Heidi,

Not to worry, I've had 4 IVF/ICSI cycles (3rd one successful) and always start having alot of that after several days of stims, I've always been told it's due to increase in estrogen, as long as your taking Lupron at the proper dose for you you can't OV. I'm about 130lbs and always take ...

Hi there,

I'm new to this board and was wondering if any of you have any ideas where I'm at with estrogen at 4,600 and progesterone at 2.2?

The estrogen seems kind of high or very high I can't remember how it goes. I'm taking my trigger shot tonite for retrieval Wed.
Some background on me : It ...
