Wow, so much happening with everyone it's hard to keep up! I've been following all the posts and I'm so excited to hear about the upcoming BFPs.

I feel like things are still moving slowly for me - I'm still poking along behind all of you! Today was my 5th day of stims. My U/S on Wed didn't show much. I have another one tomorrow, so hopefully the follies will start to peek out.

Marin, how are your stim shots coming along?

What is the first test/second test?? For all of my IUI's I just had one HCG test 2 weeks after IUI. Are you guys having more than one test??

rbjean- I am also moving slowly. Today is day 4 of stim shots and I had my first bloodwork this morning. Apparently, my estrogen level is 46 which is not high enough. Its supposed to be 100-200 by now. so they upped my Gonal F dose to 225 from 150. 6 clicks of the pen which by the way stings more than 4 clicks. First increased dose tonight. continue til thursday and bloodwork thursday AM again. The doxy is making me feel sick more than the G F I think.

Its so exciting to hear about everyone else's progress and updates! Can't wait to hear about the BFPs that are only days away!

Mia---I ate chick fil A on the way home from ER. I never did puke in fact I was never put under until then. So go for it lol. I did spot for like 2-3 days also.

Rio---not sure what they are looking at just whatever to let me know if I need to take the patches/pills. If they do look for all they they arn't saying so. Who knows.

21 How are you feeling?

Weezie--- Hope you also feel well.

Well dh and I ended up going out to eat, and I felt fine. I am still tired, so I might just stay in bed tomorrow.

Hey I have a question if anyone is up
Anyone know how many cc = ml?? I am supposed to take PIO tomorrow 1cc, I guess that is 1 ml, right??

I am a little nervous about dh giving me the shot tomorrow, plus I have to wake up early with him to get it ready

Owell, at least I don't have to give it to myself!!

waitingforMia · Post by **waitingforMia** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 3:27 am

Oh, I just checked online 1cc=1ml.

Katie - thanks, I'm doing ok. i'm going to the bathroom every 10mins b/c of all the water stuff they gave me at the ER. it sucks getting up and i feel like something's floating inside my stomach.

is that normal??? i can't really explain the feeling. i am also trying to decide if i should go to work tomorrow or take another day off. and i'm deciding if i should tell my mom about my ER today and have her come over or not. she is such a worrier i dont want her freaking out and spending all day here, but i kinda wanna tell her...but i also kinda dont

i am also hungry all day....is that normal?
--can't wait for my fertilization report tomorrow!!

weezie, mia - how you girls feeling??

mm...chixk-fil-a sounds good. they did warn me about greasy food though.

21bat: I am feeling great here. Was able to go out to eat with dh

There is a wierd feeling in my abdomen like you explained, little twinges here and there. kinda tired still, but really feeling good. I am more worried at this point at my morning PIO shot

.

21bat · Post by **21bat** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 3:40 am

mia- you're doing your PIO shot tomorrow? they told me to start mine thursday. why are you worried about it? is it supposed to hurt more than the trigger shot?? they said i can ice it before the shot and do heat after, but i read not to ice it because the oil gets hard...that makes sense.

glad you're feeling well. i'm feeling fine overall too...not sure if i should take tomorrow off or not. are you staying home tomorrow? i am tempted to, but dont wanna miss too much work...we'll see.

how much bedrest did they tell you to be on after ET, they said 2-3, so if i have day5 tranf, thats sunday, and i'll be back at work on wed-thurs?

I think if you need more time home then do it when you get your embys. Tomorrow may suck but drink gatorade and water. I cried a ton for a week and I so badly wanted my mom but we decided not to tell her. She has not a clue whats going on. I think if she knew she would make me crazy. It will be a good surprise if we geta BFP. Luckly she worked last weekend (at the hospital) and wasnt around to come by. But the rents may come over this weekend (our houses are 5 minutes away). Plus my MIL is coming into town this weekend so I have to go around and pick up all the stuff. ok well sleep well everyone. Hope the sex dreams go away---not sure if i can handle another

MAMMA MIA!!!! I am strong, I am woman, I will not POAS ....... maybe

Glad you are feeling better

and yes, 1cc=1ml make sure DH goes all the way!
Tammy - I am 8 days past ER (today= Tuesday)
Sage - I get a blood Hcg on Thursday (10pET) and one on Saturday 12dpET) but my RE only calls and tells me on Saturday, I think he wants to see an increase in Hcg to make sure. then if BFP test every 2 das and u/s at 4 weeks.
Marin/RBJ - hang in there, the start always seems slow and then ER/ET and 2WW is a whirlwind!
Katie- I was just wondering if they are taking your Hcg to see if it is rising...
21bat - glad you are feelng well, and peeing is good! If you have a hard time peeing it would be OHSS.
