Wanna: Thanks... it was killing me to read that thread and see how they were attacking each other. Did the best i could and it seems to have quieted down. As for mrs. Nega... would you consider just telling her straight up that you are doing infertility treatments but are keeping all the details btwn you and dh? And ask her to respect that.... or some version of the same? As for your friend. Yeah, it is a sticky situation you are in. But if it was me, i would want to be told sooner rather than hearing it through the grapevine later.
Patie: Hwah, hwah, hwah on the funny joke! Sorry to hear dh is acting like an a&&. I concur w/ wanna... maybe he is stressed about something and is taking it out on you... probably w/o even realizing he is doing it. I am hoping he will open up to you so you can help him.
Coco: good to read you! You wildcat lover, you. I like it, I like it. May have to use it on the blog. Speaking of blog... i will send you the link so you can be "in the know". I am also a fan of the Little Women version of the Sisterhood. Maybe we can do a double feature... Little Women and the Reproducers???!!! Glad to hear that you are more "uncoiled" (not that i know what the h*ll that is supposed to mean
)Fee: Sorry to hear of the mini-meltdown. I can imagine it must have freaked you out. Even though i have read over and over on the boards about women having a bit of bleeding, then delivering healthy babies... i think i would be scared to death, too! Glad to hear it stopped.
meg: Ha! i had a dream about you last night (well, really it was about my honking huge ovaries, but you were in it). didn't mention you in my blog as i haven't yet explained the Sisterhood (yep, i think it will take a full post just to ATTEMPT to explain this... this... whatever it is we have here
). And how am i going to explain the fact that i knew it was you, even though i don't actually know what you look like? It was funny, though, b/c i was all worried that my ovaries were too big (they were sticking out of my abd), and you told me that it was a "normal growth curve". I totally felt much better afterwards, 'cause i was thinking... well... Meg is preg, so she would know! I need to post an explanation of the sisterhood and your comforting role in what otherwise was a real freaky dream (oooo, parallels irl!).Amy: thanks for the reminder that women get preg all the time on drugs, eating junk food, exercising, drinking, smoking, etc. Sometimes i get a bit too caught up in doing everything "just right". When really, if i have one diet coke, is the outcome of my cycle REALLY going to be affected. I think not.
Melissa: Oh Freak on the coworker w/the "due-in" tshirt. I am thinking that we need to add the prohibition of the tshirt into the Sisterhood bylaws (which will be kept next to the Sisterhood Handbook of IVF Hygiene).
vicky, Nickster, Jenn, Angie and (did i miss anyone???) how the h*ll are you??
I had a "wildcat" rendezvous this am. I have a bunch of follicles now.. which is better than Mon... but only 4 are mature. Apparently on Mon my E2 levels actually dropped a bit, but he ran a FSH and my absorption was down. so that is why he increased the menopur. Now... i am just waiting for my bw to come back. If my E2 level is still flat despite an increasing FSH (should be higher due to increased menoput), then i am thinking he will want ER soon (maybe fri?) in order to get the mature ones. We are expecting, though, that my E2 level will have risen, and then i am looking at Sun or Mon for ER. I want my levels to be higher, 'cause that means i would probably get more eggs... but not looking forward to a few more days of this. My pelvis is getting all heavy and uncomfortable. blech.
Thanks for the nice comments on my blog. So far i am finding it fun.. we'll see how long it lasts
) called me this afternoon. My E2 levels went from 950 to 2500 in 48 hrs!!! Yep, so apparently my FSH absorption rose... just a bit 
Hee hee!
