Sept/Oct 2008 Cycle Buddies

[firstdiamond]

Thanks! I expect you all to be right behind me with more good news!!!

[babyluv]

Congrats firstdiamond!! That is so exciting! How many did you transfer?

Just had ET yesterday with two 2bb blasts. They look good, but I forgot to ask how my clinic grades...if 1 is the highest or 5. I guess it doesn't matter at this point anyway. We had two left but they were giving them one more day to get to blast stage before freezing...not sure if they will or not.

Anyway, dh OF COURSE had a business trip yesterday, so my dad went with me. I think he was pretty fascinated by the whole thing. My parents and sis have been taking care of the kids so I can get as much rest as possible. Hopefully it works!

S, good luck with your ER this week. Welcome to everyone else!

I had two embroys transferred. I went to the doc but she didnt do anything to confirm my home test. Just got a referral for 7 Oct... so more waiting.. ugh!!

[smattison]

first...why are you having to wait so long? Is the HPT still positive?

Renee Del Ponte, you are back there with me. I am starting Lupron next week and this is the start of my 6 week journey.

I have a question to the more experienced women. I just had a series of IUIs with HCG injection to induce ovulation...I was prego with twins on the third one only to miscarry. I know we are all on different meds, but I was told due to my HCG injection I would turn a HPT positive and not to rely on that. I did, then it faded to negative, then started turning positive, had a blood test and confirmed pregnancy. I also used HPT when I miscarried to evaluate my "normalness." (Prob too much info)

Anyway, is it true with IVF? I see I need to order the HCG shot on my meds list. Also, anyone buy their drugs out of the country? I am scared to do that and it isn't that much cheaper.

babyhope...I am on IVF #4 and I took Ovidrel with the 1st 2 and now I do HCG 10,000iu. The HCG shot was out of my system 10 days after I took the shot. It may have been out soon but that is the 1st HPT I took. I then tested positive 7dp5dt.

Renee mentioned ivp pharmacy and that is who I get mine from..they are right here in Plano Texas. I have never needed to look outside the US.
