Hi All,
I was hoping to join in. I just started birth control pills, Lupron begins 4/23, ER/ET estimated around 5/20. I am very new to this, extremely overwhelmed though excited to be actually moving forward! I have been reading all your posts and feel relieved to have found you.
I can see I have a lot to learn but am looking forward to talking with people in the same situation. Yay internet!

I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOUR BETA-----Donna, we'll all living vicariously through you now!! Hang in and be strong, I've only done the 2ww on clomid before never with IVF. I imagine it's miserable no matter what.doddo72 wrote:Hello!
I am officially on the 2 week wait. We transfered 3 embies today. ALL were 8 celled. The embryologist said they looked good. Now I just hope we get a BFP!!! I am officially PUPO.

Hello, all. DH is out with friends so I'm having a quiet evening at home. Kind of nice.
Donna, that is fantastic! I don't think you could ask for better. Take care of yourself (like you need me to remind you). I'm sending the sticky vibes!
Sameera, I've been thinking about you. Let us know how it went.
Jes, I guess that's a good sign that they're moving the ER up, right? Sorry you feel like you have so much to do. Wish I could help!
Michelle, starting stims soon! I'm jealous. I'm just on boring old lupron.
Courtney, congrats on the 7 follies! Is it stims that you start tomorrow? If so, I'm jealous of you, too.
Dr Jen, good luck tomorrow. Keep us posted.
RubyLee, yay internet! Infertility isn't something people talk about openly too often. How else would we find so many supportive women (and man)?
Ajdoherty, welcome. I never tried IUI, but IVF was not as bad as I thought. I signed up for a third time. How bad can it be?
Jeanie, I know it all can be overwhelming. It is great to come here and vent and find support. Welcome!
I know there's probably news I missed. If so, I'm sorry. I'm terrible at keeping up with all this! Gotta work on that.
I started lupron this morning. And my caffeine addiction is cured or at least temporarily under control.

Thanks everyone for the support!!!
My beta is April 24th.
A year ago today was my first IVF Embryo Transfer. it was the same Dr as Last year and I got pregnant that time(although I miscarried). So maybe this will be my lucky time. We also put back three this time instead of two.
My uterine lining was 14 mm. I always have struggles with it being so thick. Usually it goes to 20 and higher. I hope to be the first of our BFP's!!!
This is the first picture of my babies! Aren't they adorable?

Hi Sameera,
Good for you! You go girl!
Donna, your kids are beautiful dear!
Sameera- 14 fertilized...that is wonderful. 4/28 will be here before you know it, hang in there!!
Donna-I am so excited for you, thanks for sharing!!
Chelly- I live in TN!
Yellow- I started Lupron this morning, and Follistim tomorrow. I am on the micro-dose Lupron protocal, so I take more (20u twice a day), but for a shorter period of time than the longer Lupron protocal. So, I am off to the stimming world tomorrow. Oh, and I am very glad to see you have kicked the 'addiction'!!!!!!
I gave myself my first shot this morning, glad that is over!! It wasnt bad at all. The box of meds arriving at my front door was more daunting than taking the shot!!!!!!
Have a great weekend!

Good morning and Happy Friday!
I am anxious to start the bravelle/menopur tomorrow, hopefully it goes as easy as the Lupron!
Welcome to all the new ladies!

sameera- congratulation on the 14 embies! that is awesome!
donna- PUPO! we are all awaiting the results of your beta!

courtney- are you starting lupron or stims? good luck!
DrJen- Im sorry you have been stressed out at work. We just hired a new dental director to take over in july, so its kinda crazy around here! I can only image how stressful it is for you, just take a deep breath! and yes, the lupron makes me irratable and hungry too!

Sameera, 14 embryos! That's awesome. And no shots. Lucky girl.
Yesterday was my first lupron injection. This morning was number 2. So far so good.
Donna, your little ones are lovely.
Oh, I'm so glad to hear I'm among POAS addicts. I'm a proud member of that club.

Out of 11 eggs, 10 fertilized. They transfered 3, and froze 4 so far. They are growing the other 3 to blasts and if they make it they said they will freeze them. So worse case scenario, 7 out of 11 if the other 3 embryo's don't survive. I will be Peeing on a stick, starting on the 17th of April. Yes, let me warn all of you. I am addicted to POAS. I even have to hide the tests from DH.
