Congrats MB'A for your gone cysts!!!!, that is so wonderful!!!!.

Karla good luck, hope your AF comes soon!!! :wink:

Kristin, it happens to all of us, don't feel bad, we are all trying so hard to become moms that it is very emotional when we see friends or family who already acheived it........we will too!!!!

People, I have a question, they started me on Menopur and Follistim, I am supposed to dilute them on 1cc of saline, but Follistim is not powder, so when I mix them together it ends up being 1cc and 1/2, which I believe is too much to inject SQ, is this right????, let me know what you are doing please!!

To everyone, good luck and sorry if I could not do it more personalized....I will try to do better on the next one :wink:

Big hugs to everyone

My coordinating nurse called last night and sent over my calendar!!! So exciting. The RE has me on the same meds and plan as last time. I should be getting my box o' meds tomorrow!!! The cost should be alot less this time, since I already have some leftovers from last time!!! Next time I see the RE, hopefully my eggs will be nice and big...and there will be a good number :D

Can't believe I start poking myself again (actually my hubby gets that job :lol: ) this Sunday!! Looking forward to the crazy feelings and the beautiful bruises again!!

Hopeful in LV---

I feel you on the appts!!! Everyday there is something going on!!! But, it's all worth it!!!

Yikes - I cant believe it is all happenning. :P
Congrats to all those already stimming and good luck to everyone else.

So many starting stims, this is so good!!!!!, I am happy for all of you!!

I talked to the nurse and she finally told me to use Follistim to dilute Menopur, so instead of 1.5 ml I will be injecting 0.5ml, I am soo happy!!! (yesterday it was a never ending shot with those 1.5 mls :oops: ).....you would never think you would get happy for something like this... :lol:

Good luck to everyone!!!

Hello ladies, today I woke up kind of in a blue...mood swings, ay ay ay! :oops: ..........I think I am getting a little bit scared, don't know exactly of what, maybe of the tmt not working, or of the invasive procedures, I don't know..... :cry: ......
For those that have been through this already, do the progesterone shots hurt too much???....sorry for being such a whiner.......:oops:
