Can i join you guys? Starting OCPs this weekend. I think sometime in mid Jan I will start stims and hopefully first week of Feb I will go thru ER and ET.

to_have_fun08 You know whats funny? We have been thru similar situations especially being cancelled for not being suppressed enough. Well this time we will be going thru an antagonist cycle. It might not be around the same time but definitely sharing another experience together again. Its going to be our year. Keep your head up high.

Hello Ladies... I hope everyone had a good Christmas and now look forward to the New Year.

SiSi1... Hi there, I hope u feel somewhat better since Christmas has passed. It must be hard with your family being so far, especially around these times. As for your sister giving u that baby outfit, it is such a sweet thought, but if it does make u feel pressured or stressed or uncomfortable, then u may want to just let her know.... say "How sweet, but let me get PG first" or something in that sense. I am sure she would understand. I know how it feels to get something for a baby and not be able to use it.

BarbD... I agree with you how we dont give our DH enough credit for putting up with us thru these times. After reading Jenn's post, it made me think about it, and I went home and thanked him for everything.

Robin611... I'm glad if u r glad that your HCG is dropping... now u can begin your new cycle soon. It is almost time for your RE appointment. Doesnt this feel like a 2ww all over again... the days r dragging.

dys24... Oh, ok, so they r stims.. dont I feel "aduh" :oops:. So u r trying naturally first with stims? How cool is that? Well then good luck with this protocol, I hope it gives u a BFP and u dont have to do the whole IVF thing... either way, we r here for you. Well, I am bummed cuz I had to come in to work today also, so once again, u r not alone.

espinozal23... Hi... welcome. I am so excited that this forum is getting so much bigger. I am glad that we all have each other to support thru this. Good luck with your ICSI cycle. U know we are here for u if u need support even just to vent. :wink:


As for myself... well, I basically am in my 2ww... I did alot of BD with my legs up and now I wait to get or not to get my AF. If I do get it then I am off to see the RE on the 9th. I am glad that this forum is going so well.... I am trying my best to update the schedule, but if I dragg on the updates, any help would be greatly appreciated.... Thank you. Everyone good luck with your cycles... if u r currently on protocol, much baby dust to you and who ever is waiting for their RE appts... 1 week left for the New Year.. :P I am so so so excited for all of us.

Lady_J good luck on your 2ww !!! I hope it brings you a BFP. I wish I would be in it too, it seems like forever for my period to come :x but soon enough it will be here. I'm doing those couple of cycles because my dh is perfect and my only issue was with the pcos i wasn't ovulating and clomid didnt work. So now that I know my body is responding well to follistim i can try naturally first w/o jumping straight to IVF and it will also give me time to save up more money, and loose more weight :D

It feels good to talk to people that have or are going through this my best friend has told me that she would carry my baby for me if this cycle doesnt work but I just want to be able to feel my baby grow inside of me and feel all the ups and downs of be pregnant.

Espinozal23... This is a great website. When I found it thru my first cycle, it made it so much easier cuz I realized that I wasnt the only one going thru this, I just dont know why I waited so long to see a speacialist. As for making your day, I am glad I did, don't trip though, this is just the beginning :wink: That is sweet of your BF to offer herself, but hopefully u get to be PG soon and u wont need to go thru that. My mother who is 53 :shock: offered herself to me a few weeks ago. I am glad she did and she has a good pysique so her body is still capable of carrying, but I wouldnt want her to go thru this. I will take an offer from someone else though, I just wish I had a sister or someone else close to me. but kets not think about that right now, lets just look forwartd to our BFPs :P

dys24... 2ww... :P I guess, it wont be luck no more, it would be more like a miracle. :P My DH also has good spermies... just me that I have PCOS, 1 tube semi-dmaged. So basically IVF is my only option at this point... I just figured I would try naturually while waiting for my new cycle to begin.

So any plans for the New Year? What r your Resolutions? I dont know mine yet. :roll:

Rosario - We have been through a lot together. June/July we both got canceled. August we both got BFN's and then I get canceled in Nov and your cycle just keeps on getting pushed off. We better do a better job in 2009. Glad you joined this board. It is sad to see the same names over and over but it is good that some of us can relate on the same level.

Lady_J - As far a resolutions, I haven't made any. I guess I never stick to them anyway. I can always say "have a baby" but know that is kind of out of my hands. I always say "lose weight" but that last for about 2 weeks and then I will be done. Seems like I am always on the same roller coasters. Thanks for updating the board. Keeping my fingers crossed that your BD'ing will work.

To_have_fun... You know, it is upsetting that we have to see the same names board after board, but ler us pray that this will be our last IVF and move on to the PG board... that would be wonderful :D I am feeling u on the whole resolution thing... same for me "make baby, lose weight" and then nothing. :( I guess, mine new Resolution will be to enjoy Life and then take it one day at a time. Who's with me? :roll: Well, I hope the schedule is correct... let me know if anything needs to be changed.

Ok first, newby :?: Can I try now even if Lupron is scheduled for Dec 29?
What do you do while you wait to downregg? Do you normally try?

Still waiting to ovulate, my slacker ovary (left side) is late as always, poor DH has been wanting to take a bath for 4 days now and I still do not allow it:-)

My new healthy diet is going a bit better, it's hard all this beans and greens!
Anyone else trying that health stuff bit?

So who is due first here anyway?

:D I am starting to look forward :lol:
41, unexplained (plain old) fsh 4.7
DH 55 lots of good swimmers
3xclomid BFN
3xIUI BFN

Sisi1... Awsome!!! Party Time!! :P I am ready to get drunk on New Year's. I plan on having a good time. I'm glad your past the Christmas Funk..lol. As for trying, can u try wjat? Doing the BD in the meantime? If that is what u mean, then get it on girl.. don't keep your man waiting... :lol: poor guy. I was told to do the BD if I wanted up until the ER/ET. Do u have a concern? When u r on stims it is still ok to do, just more gently cuz u will have a sensitive belly.

I hope that is what u meant by trying.
