Nice graphics ICSI.... so that's how ya do it, huh?

Mir, you must be getting excited about the trip!!! Awesome time ahead.

Becks, congrats on no more down regging.

Hi Carolyn! Hi Angel!

Guys, I really like my new RE. He is very smart and has an awesome reputation. I am in good hands and I am so grateful! I have to admit though, I kinda miss seeing my old RE. I really started to get attached to him. Crazy huh? And he had a nice smile, I am sappy now. I even had a dream about him. I guess after a year and a half it is normal to feel this?

BTW, thanks for making me feel very good about my sob-story to the cop. I kinda felt like a loser getting pulled over.

So, I better get back to work. I'll check in later guys.

Angie are up to it again??? OMG, isnt that funny?

Chriss- Hi there girlie. I am so happy you are so comfortable with your new RE. I cant wait for you to get started. I can understand you missing you old RE. You guys have been through a lot and because of all the apointments you were probably with him than anyone. You form a bond. Ijust hope once you get your BFP with this new doc, that your old RE wont be jealous!!!! NO worries on the cop story. Heck yeah. If you get pulled over again, which i hope you dont, do it again!!!!

oh i'm here mir........laughing at you guys!! (as usual!!) love the entertainment value we provide for one another out here....

hey there chriss!! it's AWESOME that you love your new RE..... but as you said -- i think it's completely normal to "miss" your old RE.... jeez o peets -- we spend A LOT of time w/ these people, they really do become "extended" family.......it's nice to have that rapport..... and i'm sure you'll be loving new RE just as much -- probably even moreso once you get your BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

while you might not know it based on my "first of the day postings" --- i've actually had quite a work load today and am just now taking a lunch break......turkey sandwich & chips!! (yes - those chips directly affect my thunder thighs!!!) some days i have all the willpower in the world..... and then when i get into the mode of "preparing" for my next cycle (wether ivf or natural/timed like i'm doing now) ---- i seem to go into this "must prepare body for baby" mode --- like that somehow means i must eat chips???!!!! i know -- is fu*&$ed up......maybe just my excuse to eat ice cream w/ no guilt!!! ha, ha, ha!!!

So today is CD10 for me.....was the start of my OPK's.....been using the Clear Blue Easy one's that have the digital smiley face that shows up once you get your surge and have found that i LOVE them and would NEVER buy any other product far as OPK's go again!!! I always was "comparing" the colors and second guessing with other brands.... never quite knowing if it was "as dark or darker than" --- WTF??!!! And if history repeats itsself -- i should be getting my smiley face thurs/friday (CD12/13)... so TONIGHT is the night for BCABB in my house!!! and then dh must wait til smiley shows and BCABB some more!!!

I seconded that you ladies are crack me up too!! I needed it today. I saw there was some questions for me so i am going to try and answer. things are just going for me. AF did show her ugly,ugly face. On the one hand, its a relief to feel normal again after my IVF cycle (I was worried it might mess up my hormones and stuff)....On the other hand, why can't I have a surprise miracle BFP!!! Oh and of course, we are having a baby shower for a guy in my group who's girlfriend is preggo and due next week...great timing I must say!! I was a mess for a bit and I bailed out on the shower, Said I was busy!! I just afraid waterworks to start flowing in front of everyone I work with and I don't want that!! Now, i am eating lunch and reading your fab-u-lous posts and all is right in the world!!

Oh and my schedule and the Number of cycles. I have only done 1 IVF cycle a fresh one last March. they transferred 3 embies and I was so freaked out about triplets that I am sure that is why they didn't stick!!! So, currently, we are waiting to see how much of the $17,000 claim that is still outstanding with my ins. gets paid to see how much we have left till my $30,000 lifetime max of IF treatments. it been over a month and they still haven't paid. So, once that happens, I can call with my next period and see what the RE can schedule....awaiting treatment all the way. I am the poster child for this thread....awaiting...awaiting...awaiting. It's works out though b/c we are going to NC for vacation at the end of May and I don't want to be in an IVF cycle when I'm on vacation. Ahhh the boss just came by. I must get back to work. No more fun for me

)

Be back soon!!!!

ICSI, I am a big fan of the clear-blue digital smiley face. I've done my fair share of opk's and didn't find the smileys soon enough. They cost me a bundle though! I think we had this conversation a while back... $40 a pack!!! And I always seem to need 2 packs per cycle. YIKES. It's no wonder I bawled to that cop!!!

How's everyone????

Bitchin' glad you like us. WE like you too. And forgive me for not remembering or going back to check, just wondering where you live???

Talk more later. -chriss

NP - I live in Douglassville, East of Reading from you! $40 for OPKs, I hated paying $23 for 2 HPTs...wow things are too expensive these days!!

ICSI GIRL · Post by **ICSI GIRL** » Tue Apr 29, 2008 6:55 pm

yeah chriss - we did just recently have this conversation cuz i was trying to get everybody's input/advice as to what was the best OPK out there?? cuz ya go to the damn drugstore and there's an entire shelving unit dedicated to the darn things!!!!! its like - are you serious?? how in the hell does one figure out which one is "best"????? all i know is that i am LOVING the smiley face ones!!!! (and i'm not even getting any $$ for advertising free for them!! ha,ha!!) ok -- did miss your post about your current/next schedule??? i know i asked like 12 times - but don't recall seeing......are you waiting for next AF?? if so - when is that???

bitchin --- like chriss said, glad you like us!! i can TOTALLY relate on the insurance crap.......ALTHOUGH - sounds like you have MUCH more coverage than i do (lucky dog!!) but far as the fighting w/ my ins co for EVERY CENT possible -- yep, i've been there-done that! it will be so nice when we all finally get our bfp's and have no more worries about "insurance coverage" or straight cash out of pocket for infertility treatments!!!!!

ok my lovelies.............gotta run for the day --- oldest dss has track meet and for the record -- would LOVE to not go -- it's freezin a$$ cold!!!! bye-bye!! talk more tomorrow!

Hey ladies,

Soo looks like some of you didn't have to work judging by the activity on this thread.

My boss was in the ofice today so had to pretend to work hard

Had a meeting that lasted so long, plus had to review the work of some of my team and I'm so shattered today so please forgive me if I can't do personals today.

Just signed on to say "HAPPY STIMMING BECKY" in case I don't get a chance to log on tomorrow.
