Baylor bear - I am so, so sorry. I know that every day you carry a child your love for them grows bigger - so I can't even imagine what a loss as late as this is like. I have often thought of those that graduated from our ivf study and hoped all was well, and something made me think to check on any ...

I understand the feelings of frustration, loss of faith, guilt, and failure. I totally get what it is like to watch family and friends have 1, 2 or 3 kids in the time that you have been trying for one. My husband and I agree that we felt like the world was going on around us, and we were stuck. It ...

I did the same exact thing with my first ivf hcg shot (or rather, my husband did!) and I worried about it just like you. I assumed we hit a blood vessel when we saw a good amount of blood, but now I am doing IM progesterone shots every day for my fet, and even when I pull back and don't see any ...

Stress - I'm sorry this is so stressful. hang in there. I'm thinking of you, which is praying in my own way. I hope you can take some comfort in 2ndtimer's advice.

Indie - I also had to order lots more meds (over 1k more) and just got surgical bills, and I know it is so stressful. It seems like ...

Indie - I did have that problem, but only one day. I would try again in another spot. I also had some itchy rashes the first few days, but they went away. It made me so worried I would have a reaction and have to stop taking the shots!

Hope it gets better for you!

stress - CONGRATS! That's fantastic - I really had a positive feeling about you! Now - easier said than done - don't stress! Get yourself through one day at a time. You've cleared the biggest hurdle!

Baylorbear - wow! congratulations!!!!!!!! What a fantastic day... so glad you have your BFP. Rest and enjoy!

Who's next?

Angram and Indie- I thought it was good to exercise all these years, but I'm not so sure now. My doctors have always said I am not underweight and I always get AF, but it ...

stress and baylorbear - I agree with indie - I think progesterone can cause these things in general - I was sore, too and now that I think about it, I had some slight discharge discoloration when I changed rings.

becca and Indie - Thanks for posting about your exercise. I exercise like a fiend, and ...

becca - great news, becca! I agree, do not feel bad that you are finally where you should be. If anything, it gives me hope!

angram - glad you are feeling better!

Indie - yay! LUPRON! that's so exciting! You are on your way!

Baylorbear- welcome! I had a strange symptom with the ring... aching and ...

Hi girls -

So, there's some good things going on here!

Stress: I'm glad things went well. It is great that you have a couple of frozen embies, for next time. So the little one from this cycle can have some buddies down the line! I also have two, and am waiting to hear from my doctor tomorrow ...

Angram and Indie - I thought it was weird that I usually am very nauseous for the first week with BCP's, but this one I was not. Strange, right? I guess it just goes to show you that what you hear all the time is so true... everyone responds to drugs a little bit differently. I do know what you are ...

Yes, I'm still here! I'm too emotionally invested in all of you to leave now. I return to get good news. It keeps me sane, and feeling like this stuff does actually work...

Stress: 5 day transfer is good! I would have felt better if I had that. So that's fantastic news, even if that is what ...

Indie - I brought my sharps in to my nurse coordinator at my final visit. She said they definitely take them, so I'd check with your office.

Stay + I am so sorry, I really was hoping for some good news for you. It sucks that AF had to come early. I'll be thinking of you tonight. Be careful.. it hit ...

oops, sorry, guys. my last message was posted, it was just on the previous page. Sorry for the repeats...

I don't know what is going on, but my last three posts haven't made it on the board. Ill try again.

Stress! Yay! What a great report. Looks to me like you already have very positive results. I don't know anyone else that had almost every single egg fertilize! And no, I didn't have many symptoms ...
