JENHOPE: THANKS FOR THE PRAYER....I WILL USE IT!

REACH-AEJ: ANY OF YOUR EXPERIENCES AND PROCEDURES YOU WANT TO SHARE WOULD BE GREAT......MY DH JUST WANTS TO GET THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS AND THEN HE SAID WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN IN JANUARY. I THINK I'M SUPPOSED TO START A NEW CYCLE AROUND DEC. 18TH....BUT SINCE IT USUALLY DOEN'T COME WITHOUT HELP.....WHO KNOWS.

CHARITY: I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TALKING TO YOU TODAY.

HI EVERYONE: WELL, MY DH FINALLY MADE UP HIS MIND.....AND WE'RE GOING FOR OUR 2ND IVF.....AND OUR FINAL TRY AT THIS. I STARTED THE PROVERA AND SHOULD START THE NEW CYCLE SOME TIME NEXT WEEK. WE'RE TRYING THE FLARE PROTOCAL, AND I'M REALLY WORRIED ABOUT HOW I'M GOING TO RESPOND TO THE MEDS THIS TIME.

JENHOPE: DID YOU START ANY OF THE SHOTS YET? HOW IS IT GOING FOR YOU AT THE CLINIC?

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND GOD BLESS TO EVERYONE!

Well, I didn't start the shots yet. I just went 1/2/07 for my day 3 labs and to get my meds ordered, they were cheaper then I was quoted, so that is good. So far I haven't had any complaints. Beth is awsome. I will be back there on 1/19 to start Lupron and blood work and u/s. I am just trying to stay positive, but it is hard. But I hope 07 will be awesome for all of us. What is the flare protocol? I hope things go good, It looks like we will only be a few weeks apart, basically the same time. That is good because we have support from eachother. Well take care and keep us posted. Happy New year.

HI THERE!
I'M GLAD TO HEAR THINGS ARE GOING GOOD FOR YOU!!! I JUST GOT ME NEW MEDS IN, $2,700.00 FOR ROUND (2). THE 1ST TIME IT WAS $3,000.00.......I MEET WITH THEM TOMORROW 1/9/07 AND I THINK I'M GOING TO START WITH THE FOLLISTEM (SHOTS IN THE STOMACH) THOSE ARE EASY.....YOU USE A PEN TYPE NEEDLE AND IT'S THE SMALLEST OF THE NEEDLES YOU GET. I'M ALSO GOING TO GET EDUCATED AS BEST I CAN ON THIS "FLARE PROTOCAL" PROCEDURE.....I GUESS THEY REALLY MAKE THINGS HAPPEN FASTER.......THEY DON'T USE THE LUPRON WHICH IS MORE OF A CONTROLLING DRUG FOR THE SIZE OF FOLLICLES YOU GET....I JUST HOPE I GET LOTS OF FOLLIES.....AND BIG ONES THAT WILL WANT TO GET FERTILIZED THIS TIME........!!! I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED ON HOW THE MEETING GOES.......WHEN DO YOU GO BACK?

WISCONSINGAL,
How do you finance your IVFs?
I am afraid I need to get a second job and work non stop during the next a few months.

I WORK (2) JOBS AND MY DH TAKES ALL THE OT HE CAN.......WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN....THE BANK IS COOL ABOUT LOANS (WE KNOW THE LOAN OFFICER) WE PAY IT AS WE CAN......SOME TIME MAKING DOUBLE PAYMENTS WHICH HELPS PAY THINGS OFF FASTER. WE ALSO SOLD SOME OF OUR STUFF (MOTORCYCLE, POP UP CAMER ETC. ) I HAD TO PUT THE MEDS ON CREDIT CARD (WHICH SUCKS) SO WE'LL BE PAYING THAT OFF 1ST TO GET RID OF THE HIGH INTEREST ON THAT. WE DON'T GO OUT, OR EAT OUT SO THAT SAVES A LOT TOO.....WE KEEP THINGS AS SIMPLE AS WE CAN TO TRY AND SAVE UP AS MUCH AS WE CAN.....KNOWING IT WILL BE WORTH IT IF WE GET LUCKY!

Wisconsingal,

sounds like us, we haven't sold anything yet but we are keeping things simple, try not to spend money if we have to. Some people don't understand we can't go out so much any more because of this. We have really cut back. Also through our bank we are getting a home equity loan, which we will pay most of it off with our taxes. Then we will have a small loan of 100 per month, which isn't bad unless this doesn't work.

So how are things with you? I just received all my meds today. I guess it is becoming more & more real.

HI JEN:

I'M DOING OK......WORRIED SICK EVEN MORE THIS TIME BECAUSE IT'S OUR LAST CHANCE. MET WITH BETH YESTERDAY TO DO A REVIEW OF THE NEW MEDS. SHE'S SO DAM NICE.....LOVE HER AND JILL SO MUCH, CAN'T ASK FOR NICER PEOPLE TO WORK WITH. I DID THE FOLLISTEM AND REPRONEX OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED LAST NIGHT....ONE SHOT OF EACH IN THE TUMMY......MY NEXT APPOINTMENT IS FRIDAY. I GUESS THEY WANT TO DO AN U/S AND SOME BLOOD WORK THEN TO SEE HOW I'M DOING ON THE NEW DRUG. I'LL FIND OUT THEN WHEN THE PROJECTED ER WILL BE......IF THE DRUGS DO WHAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DO. I FOUND OUT MY BLOOD WORK CAME BACK....ALL LEVELS WERE GREAT, BUT I'VE HEARD THAT WITH BOTH IUI'S AND THE LAST IVF ATTEMPT, SO I DON'T GET TO EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

HOW ARE YOU DOING???

well I am doing good. Got all my injections yesterday, wow I cannot believe how many there are, and the 18 1/2 gauge needles, I work in a Clinic and they are big. But I hope it will be all worth it. I guess we are trying and that is all we can do, it is out of our hands. I am worried about the lupron because I heard people get headaches on it and I already get headaches so I am scared it will be worse. I hope things will go better with you guys this round. I don't know too much about all this since this is our first and only time. So why are you doing the shots already? Do you get to skip the Lupron? or are you just this far already? Or is this the other protocol? Well keep me updated. I go back next friday the 19 to do the teaching and u/s. It is becoming so real now, this is really happening. This is something i thought would never happen.

NO LUPRON FOR ME THIS TIME, SO THAT'S WHY THINGS ARE GOING SO FAST

Wisconsonggal ~ I just wanted to say "hi" and I hope things are going well for you!!! It sounds like it is so far and know you will have success this time. Reading about your feelings - not being excited b/c you've heard it before - reminds me of our last experience...but hang in there because I just know it will be so different this time. Sending lots of prayers your way!

Jenny ~ Good Luck to you as well! The shots are not that bad ~ you'll do great! I think the drugs affect everyone very differently. I never had all of the bad side affects - I did have some headaches - but not sure if it was from the meds, the cost, or what!!??!! ha ha

Good Luck Girls! Looking forward to hearing all the positive progression!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE: JUST GOT BACK FROM DR. ONCE AGAIN HE SAYS EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT....LINING.....NUMBER OF FOLLICLES, SIZE OF FOLLICLES.....I DIDN'T HEAR BACK YET HOW THE ESTROGEN LEVEL IS....BUT RIGHT NOW I'M TAKING 225ML OF FOLLISTEM, AND ONE VILE OF REPRONEX DAILY. I GO BACK MONDAY FOR ANOTHER U/S TO CHECK FOLLI SIZE........IT'S WIERD BUT THIS TIME DOES FEEL DIFFERENT, I'M NOT SURE WHY THOUGH. I AM DOING ACUPUNCTURE FOR THE 1ST TIME, WHICH IN ITSELF IS WIERD SO I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THESE STRANGE VIBES OR FEELINGS I'M HAVING.... THE FOLLICLES SIZES WERE AROUND 6 TO 10 AND THIS IS DAY 5, ANYONE ELSE CHARTING SIZES OR CLOSE TO WHAT I'M GOING THROUGH?

Wisconsingal-

, I just can't believe how fast this is going. Keep that good feeling. Keep us posted. I will be there on 1/19, I will keep you posted.

ESTROGEN LEVEL WAS 154, ON FRIDAY TOO, BUT I FIND OUT ON MONDAY IF WE NEED BUMP UP THE MEDS OR WHAT'S NEXT... MY NEXT ACUPUNCTURE IS WEDNESDAY, I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHEN I'M SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THAT, DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW CLOSE TO ER YOU SHOULD OR SHOULDN'T DO ACUPUNCTURE?

THANKS FOR ALL THE NICE THOUGHTS AND YOU ARE ALL IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS

REACHAEJ - THANKS! THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR FOR ALL OF US I HOPE!

IT'S SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND I JUST GOT BACK FROM ANOTHER BABY SHOWER. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'M ON A DOWNER. MY DH SAID NOT TO GO, WITH ALL THE HEADACHES, AND EMOTIONS HE SAID IT'S GOING TO BE TO MUCH, BUT I WENT ANYWAY BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WOULD KEEP MY HOPES UP AND MAKE ME WANT TO TRY EVEN HARDER AT THIS STAGE...WELL, I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO HIM, YUK, THIS GIRL WAS 22 YEARS OLD, AND DIDN'T EVEN SMILE OR ACT EXCITED, SHE IS SO TAKING THIS FOR GRANTED, IT'S SO NOT FARE THAT THESE KIDS HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE TO WHAT THE OTHER SENARIO COULD BE.

JENHOPE - KEEP US POSTED ON WHEN YOU START YOUR MEDS AND HOW YOUR FEELING!

TAKE CARE EVERYONE!
