winnie where is your endo if you dont mind me asking? mine is all over both of my overies (plus the added bonus of endo cysts inside my overies too) plus its all over both of my tubes binding them to my bladder and bowels...who knew i had all that going on?? fun fun! the endo makes my overies not respond to the meds so that is why i am always being pumped with meds and see no results. i'm also on a antagonist protocol which uses no lupron, and just cetrotide. last cycle i didnt go on bcp's first, but my RE is a strong believer that BCP's helps with woman with endo so we decided to do a loooooong BCP cycle before starting stims this time. i have a feeling the bcp's are still in my system so hopefully i will start to respond better to the meds soon!
thats great that you can respond so well with such small amounts of meds!! you go girl!! i think i would faint if i ever got 7 good follies!! good luck at your SnS tomorrow!!! grow follies grow!!!

emma: Wow that's AWESOME!! How many will you transfer?? I'm very happy for you!

[latrell22]

Just got an update, both of the eggs fertilized! I'm both shocked and happy! RE said that since they were just retrieved yesterday, they cannot grade them because they both look the same right now??? I have no idea what that means, but they will be graded tomorrow and I go back in at 10:30 am for ET!! I'm so excited!

[not hopeless yet]

Congrats Latrell! Way to go Emma! I go in for retrieval tomorrow and if all goes as planned we'll transfer 2-3 on Sat.!!! I know I'm counting my eggs before they hatch (literally).

Sorry ladies that I didn’t get a chance to post yesterday … my job is absolutely driving me nuts right now. I always have something to do and it makes me so stressed!

Marci – I am so sorry! I know that some ladies do cycle naturally w/out BCPs and if that is your problem than maybe that is for you. I truly understand the mental health aspect. My previous pregnancy losses and my IVF road has changed me so very much. I always thought there was nothing that I couldn’t do in life if I tried really hard to complete and this has made me second guess my self-confidence. When I talk with others about it, they don’t understand at all what I mean, which makes it very hard to deal with on my own!

Chris – OMG twins! That is great …

Helene – I am glad you are doing well! I sure hope the house hunting becomes a little easier for you!

Emmax – wow 17, that is great. I am glad you are able to relax a little now! Good luck on Saturday!!

Latrell – I am so very happy that both fertilized! So when is your transfer scheduled?

Not hopeless yet – Egg retrieval tomorrow!!! That is great it seems we will just be one day away from each other.

Lauren - i hope you are doing well!

AFM – I had my last u/s and blood draw before my ER yesterday and I am moving along as predicted. I think my estradiol was 1700+ and the follicles on my right ovary are between 14mm and 18mm. It still was hard to see the left ovary to tell the size or how many are growing on that side. So I think I still have 13 or more. I guess I will know exactly how many at the ER. So I am still scheduled for an ER on Thursday. I sure was hoping that he would move me back to Wednesday because I am so very uncomfortable right now! I am trying to do the best I can to continue my normal life but this is difficult! I just don't remember being this uncomfortable back in 2008!

Emma thats brilliant news, il know how many i have tomorrow. I started with 5 lets see if i have more xxx

[winnie71]

Emmax-whoa,that is wonderful, 17!! Glad you did ok w/ the procedure and had a compassionate RE.

Latrell-2 for 2 is great!!

Turtle-my endo is all over, but not like your 'all over' I don't believe, no involvement beyond my girl parts-though I do get flare-ups of extra-pelvic endometriomas, even had one big one removed. Also, I had laparoscopy for my endo last May, so they cleared lots out, I guess. Maybe that's why I'm doing ok on my low doses.

Had my u/s this AM, 7 follies-there is actually one more from last time, but I forgot there was a cyst leftover from last cycle. So 7 follies, one cyst, all growing nicely. Looking at an RE 'egg hunt' this weekend sometime, maybe even Easter itself .

spoke to Re's nurse yesterday:

What are your thoughts/expierence with
Estrogen priming protocol ?
Donor embryos ?

Hanging on,

Well you all know what I think of Donor Embryos!!! They are a winner situation for someone who's eggs are not good enough. I am so thankful for that couple who donated to me.
