AIMS - congrats on your BFP!!!

All,

I have been suffering from a headache for the last 3 days. I have taken two doses of ES Tylenol. Any other suggestions?? I am also fighting off a bit of a cold that my fiance exposed me too. The first cold I've had in about a year. I did not realize that my immune system would be suppressed leaving me an open target for all the germs floating around in the air!!! I can handle the cold its the migraines that take me down...HELP!!

Aims-- congrats!!!! I think you were on one of my threads back in the day! This is so exciting for you!

Josee-- dont be too worried about your ER...it is not too bad, I was very nervous my first time too, now going into my 4th this weekend, I havent even thought twice about it.

CT Michele--OOh I hope all is well, waiting is always the worst part.....I'll be thinking of you!

AFM.....bw and u/s today showed 11 follies that were countable....this is anything over 10mm I think, I think by ER I should have about 14. This is a pretty good number,, but our hurdle is always ferilization. We are not going to do ICSI and DH has 1%morphology, so I am praying that those little swimmers make there way in! My DH has a Tshirt that says "My sperm kick ass!" my mom had it made in our last cycle when 3 eggs fertilized without ICSI....so I think he should wear that for luck! I go back friday morning I should probably trigger friday night and have ER sunday....we'll see??

Josee,

One tip that my nurse told me after ER that really helped with pain. She said the ovaries will be sore and if your bladder fills up it puts pressure on them. So go pee a lot...anytime you feel the slightest need. He he! Sounds silly, but I think it helped me!

Neffi - Yes, we have been on the same thread before. I am very excited to finally get my BFP since it's my 4th try!

lionoe - I too have a cold that is knocking me down also with a headache. I was told I could take sudafed and tylenol. I would call your RE to see if there is anything else you can take.

Thanks everyone for your congrats. I'm struggling a little with my DH. I think he is in shock and worried about money etc now that I am pregnant. I'm a little hormonal, so I was taking it yesterday as he's not happy. Has anyone else experienced this with their husband?

Michele, you were right. I do plan to use the one hpt I have already next Thursday and I already know regardless of what result I get, I'll probably POAS at least once a day following up until my beta :lol: I'm already itching to do so.

estrellita- so glad to see you are still with us. I am kind of a lupron moron...so can you explain. Will you be officially stimming, using lupron, or do you start lupron and then start something else soon to officially be stimming? Lupron confuses me because I have never used it and so many people here use it for so many different things. Either way, I am so glad you finally get to get started.

Thx CT_Michelle..
Well, I'm confused on everything :shock:
But I went today for my blood and U/S and when the nurse was explaining to me which medication to start today, she told me to start Lupron today and I have to go back on 4/17 for blood and U/S and then I'll start stim :?
I asked her what's the purporse of Lupron and she told me is to suppress the ovaries. It's basically to stop me from ovulating.
Then when I start stim and be also on Lupron. :?
