Okay, my nurse said that the vag. walls were like a sandwich and the gel wouldn't come out....well not 2 steps out of the RE's office and it started! It's just been a waterfall of gel since I've been home...when I go to the bathroom, when I am just sitting here....ugghh! I'm not feeling very positive about this!

Don't panic about some gel coming back out, you absorb the progesterone from it relatively quick.
I remember how messy it is, i always felt like i had wet myself

sorry if that was tmi

Mindy Yea...isn't that a fun feeling. When I start feeling like that, then I really do have to go pee...so 3 months of Crinone do not sound like fun....

But I'm more worried about it working...so this mornings dose I took it and then went and layed back down for 45 minutes or so. I'll see if that does any better. I read somewhere that the medicine is pretty much absorbed within the first 10 minutes or so....again, hoping that 45 was enough. They say it's a 'bioadhesive' on the insert/instructions....well it's not adhering to anything I've got LOL

Waiting on the Re's office to call....but she said the probability of a Saturday (3dt) transfer was great since we only had 5 that fertilized out of 7.....I'm excited. Can't wait to get the call and praying that my embabies made it through the night.

How many are you puting back?

I'm letting God make that decision

My RE said that 3 would be the Max on day 3....so we're good with that. We had 5 make it through fertilization, and by day 3 I think they'll have a good idea of how many are going to make it and the decision will be made for us based on how many are left

Hi Indie - My RE has me put mine it at night, just before I lay down. Help gravity a bit.

Thanks Rubylee. Sadly my RE said I had to put it back between 6am and 10am....so I usually put it back at 6am and then lay down till 7am...that hour seems to help a LOT.

I wish I could do it at night though....but I still think I'm getting a good amount and it's FDA approved...etc so I'm sure they tested it on women with lady parts like mine LOL and it worked.

Just 11 more weeks of it LOL
