Hello Ladies

Hope everyone is doing good I am kinda feeling nervous since I go into tomorrow to get a u/s and bloodwork hope that my lining has gotten thicker and that the folliclies are looking good I am going to ask him about taking the baby aspirin when they do my ER and see what he says about it I have read and heard so many different things that I just want to see what the DR has to say about it hopefully the ER doesnt get moved around since that is the day that I have scheduled off already I can change it but I dont like to do it at the last minute since I am the only working in my area at the time since my BFF that works with me was in a car wreck Will keep everybody posted on what happens. Baby dust to everyone.

espinozal23 - Good luck tomorrow!!!! Let us know what your dr says about the aspirin for sure.

So funny that we are all seeing dr's in the same field and get all kinds of opinions and answers...frustrating sometimes!

Sending lots of positive energy your way!

Ok so I really need to vent......AF is playing with my emotions, not even with the provera :cry: I have another appt with RE on 1/9 and hopefully something will happen before then cause if not I think we might have to wait till Feb. I am on an emotional roller coaster. I just want to cry and scream my head off.

sorry for my emotional melt down:(

BarbD I just wanted to say, it may be a good sign you are feeling this way, it may be PMS? If not I really hope AF shows up asap, that AF has the worst timing EVER!

Good Morning Ladies... Well I am back at work. I am so exhausted. Still no AF :( and no signs of AF.

espinozal23... Wow hun, that is great. I am glad that your lining has thickened up. You are on your way Babygirl. I am so happy for u. By the looks of it... u may be the first to be in your 2WW. Just a few more days... aren't u excited now?

BarbD... I am so sorry that your AF is making u go thru this. I am starting to feel this way as well. My AF is due today or by tomorrow. But AF has their mind of their own... I beleive it is the added stress that makes it late. It happened to me on my first cycle. When I was to start I was about a week late... RE even had to do a beta on me to make sure I wasn't PG before putting me on meds. BFN... but same day I got results, I got my AF... typical. ANyway, I really hope our AFs arrive soon, very soon.

I called re's office today and talked to an ivf coordinator. Although I can not move my consult any sooner, I did find out some good info. They want me to call when af arrives, which should be within the week, so I can come in for the first u/s. She said i will then i will still have my consult on the 22nd. I do have to do all of the prelim tests again, like the dye, water, bloodwork, mock transfer. She said february cycle is starting stims around the 20th with expected ER the week of march 2nd. So as long as i don;t hit any snags, that looks like our timetable. i am glad i called so i could get in with af this time and not have to wait another month...I feel her rearing her ugly head now!

espinozal23 - I'm happy to hear that your lining has thickened up!! Our ER may be on the same day. I saw my RE yesterday and he said it'll be on Thursday or Friday. I can't believe its here already. I just met my DH for lunch and he's soo excited!!

Anyway...I had about 7 follicles on each ovary ranging from 12mm to 16mm. I had a bunch under 10mm as well.

When do you go back to the RE? I go again tomorrow and depending on how things look I may be doing my trigger shot tomorrow.

I better get back to work!

I hope you all have a great day!

CT_Michelle, That's wonderful news. I am glad u called as well. Hope AF arrives soon enough.

This is so exciting. It seems like this cycle is going so much faster than the last. I mean, some of you ladies are already close to ER/ET.

dys24; tkat & espinozal23... I wish you ladies the best of luck cuz you ladies should be doing ER this weekend or so. It must be so exciting. I really hope and pray that you get your BFPs thru this cycle.

Good luck Tkat and Espinozal23! How exciting for you!
I have 1 more week on bcps and I am having really bad lower abdominal cramps but only at night. How weird is that? I am fine during the day but even last night when I was cooking dinner I had to sit down cause the cramps got so bad. I took tylenol and I was ok the rest of the night but this has been going on the past few days. Anyone else have anything similar after going through IVF? It seems weird to me as I shouldnt be ovulating on bcps...right?

Hello ladies!

Post by JennLB25 »

Just wanted to update real quick. I'm back to work and it is very busy here today.

But I went to RE today and got bloodwork and did mock transfer.

I just got the phone call................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........I START LUPRON TONIGHT! YIPPEE, my first IVF cycle under way.

My RE did say that I have a cyst on my left ovary and he wants me back next Thursday or Friday to see if the cyst has diminished. If it's still there, he said we may have to stop Lupron and wait for cyst to go away. I'm SOOOOO praying that doesn't happen.

If cyst goes away, then I will start Follistim around the 15th or 16th and have ER on about January 29th or 30th, and have ET 3 days later.

I'm excited and nervous all at the same time!!

Praying you all get to start your cycle soon!! May we all see BFP's over the next couple of months!!!
