I NEED SOME PMA & YOUR ADVICE!!!

Hello Ladies – I think I am officially losing my mind. I just can’t get what my nurse’s RE said out of my mind in regards to how long the Ovidrel is supposed to stay in the body. And, from what I have read, if you are using 5,000 or 10,000 Units of HCG IM, it takes about 1,000 per day. But, I used Ovidrel 250mcg. And, according to the Ovidrel official website, the dose of 250mcg should be gone within 7 days not the 10 days that she stated. During my first IVF in 2008, I tested after 5 days and it was gone so I knew when I got my BFP in 2008 it was a true BFP.

So I have been driving my DH absolutely nuts … I have been testing throughout the day. I actually woke up to go to the bathroom this morning at 4am and guess what, I took another test? It was only slightly darker than yesterday and today I am 9 after my trigger shot and 7dpt5t. The mistake that I did in regards to this transfer is that I didn’t take a HPT at least 5 days following the Ovidrel trigger shot to ensure it was out of my body but I did use an ovulation test because if your are pregnant it should show a positive sign also. The ovulation test just isn’t specific to HCG, but anyways all three of the ovulation tests that I took were negative starting 5 days after my trigger injection.

So my question is, to those of you who tested w/ HPT and received a BFP, how long was it following your last 250mcg trigger shot? Remember, I got my first BFP on this cycle (w/ HPT) starting 8 days after my trigger shot and 6dpt5dt. I did talk my RE into moving my beta date up from Friday to tomorrow (Wednesday) but I am dying until then. Why of why did I talk w/ her yesterday??? Lol!!

Please share your thoughts. I still have all the symptoms, such as very fatigued, nausea is getting worse, and sore breasts.

Angela

turtle - don't worry you are not the only one in the 2ww. How was your acupuncture girl :) sorry about your soreness girl that is a drag for sure. I think it's the pio shot yes don't you worry about that little discharge girl... keep positive...

I don't have to be out of the house I sold I am already out of it. That house is empty and out of town. And still no news from the rental?? I think it's going to be a yes so we decided NOT to move on May 1st just a couple of weeks later cause we just don't have the time.

Lauren - I hope everything is going to be ok girl... so sorry.

emmax - don't worry about little red it's ok. Glad you are prego... I really hope this one makes it home dear and you get to hold your little baby this time :)

Hopeforbabies - again sorry about your beta going down... that is so hard news after all that work and hopes... hugs so sorry dear.

ya Claudia - how are you doing girl??

patypaty - so nice follies way to go girl.

tammy - I think that is a great idea to ask the kids to pack too maybe their room or something like toys ... thanks for the tip.

so you are pregnant!!!!!!!! Wow that is amazing... I am so happy for you girl. I think it's a great beta at the stage you are at... how exiting. Good luck for your second beta :)

angela - Wow angela I think you are right and you are pregnant!! Congratulations on the darker line girl you are doing great. So exited for you dear. Don't worry dear you are pregnant and I know it. doesn't matter about the shot or anything tomorrow is your beta and you will get a nice number don't you worry about anything and try to relax :) Hugs.

kushka - You can take Tylenol for headache but not aspirin. Hope it gets better dear.

Supergenius - my next u/s is on April 27th. How are you doing girl with your pg?

Franca - you are finally PUPO that is great!!! Congrats for making it there so far... that is great news. Now hang in there ok.

AFM - Moving date will be mid May so more time to pack. Office move is finally done and I have the crapiest office of them all and every talk all day I hate it. The big boss said he will try and find me another office that would be good. I might leave if I hate it we'll see. And got my Gender Test yesterday can't wait to do it around May 1st and we also have a family portrait to be done at Church on that day too... so I am busy busy and that's good times flies... ;)

angela i'm pretty sure you are pregnant! mean nurse was just mad because you didnt wait for your beta. dont worry ok? if it was the HCG trigger there would be no way the HPT's would be getting darker!! you entered crazy town after you got your BFP!! :wink: when is your actual beta? can you move it up to ease your mind? i cant wait to hear your big #!!
what were your signs and symptoms during the 2ww?? xoxoxo :D

franca how are you feeling my dear? enjoying the 2ww?? i'm right there with ya!! any symptoms yet??

lauren woooohooooo for a 10.4 lining!!! thats AWESOME!! perfect!! i cant wait to hear when your FET will be!! very soon i bet!! yay!! you made a perfect home for those embies!! how many are you thawing/transferring?? you'll be pupo in no time! :D

paty cant wait to hear that you get to trigger tonight!! good luck at your SnS today!! :D

libby i miss you!! i'm so glad everything is going good, but i'm sure you are exhausted! i cant wait to hear about your U/S on thursday! keep me posted ok? thank you so much for all your good baby vibes..i need them!! xoxoxo :D

helene i cant believe how busy you are! do you get to go back for another U/S soon? thanks for keeping me calm. seeing discharge never gets easy, and its hard not to get worried about it. no matter how many times i hear its normal and ok...it still worries me ya know? acupuncture is wonderful...i love it!!

afm not much going on...the 2ww countdown is in full swing. i had really strange dreams last night, and i dont remember the last time i had a dream. the discharge is gone for now, but as soon as i talk about it, it comes back! i am a little crampy, but i think its due to PIO and all the food i keep shoving in my mouth. is it monday yet?? haha
i hope you all have a great day!!

***much love always***

Angela - stop worrying, you have a BFP!!! Ovidrel is compared to 6000 units HCG so it should defiantly be out of your system. The HPT test don't measure the quantity of HCG in your system. So the line might not get darker even with a rise of HCG. Good lUck on your beta.

Hi All,

Bei - so good that AF finally showed up. Glad she could join us!! You are now on your way..!

Paty - so great that you've had a better response to the meds. I guess it shows that with each cycle REs learn and can change things for better results. I'll be thinking of you on Thurs. Hope ER goes brilliantly and they get lots of lovely eggs!

Dr Boots - Great beta! Well done! You must be so excited for 19 April and so good that DH is going with you. :D

Tammy - Congratulations on your BFP! You must be sooooo happy. SO many great results on this board, I just can't believe it!! :D

Helene - So happy to hear your house is sold. I've always found house selling / buying one of the most stressful things in the world and can't believe you're doing it with a 3 month old baby (am I right saying that?) and you're pregnant! I'm SO impressed that you can stil smile!

Franca - Thanks for the reassurance on the aspirin. You're my 2ww buddy - you, Franny and me! How are you feeling? Any symptoms? When is your beta? Are you going to POAS?

Katie - thanks to you also for the aspirin info. I'm soooo happy that your pregnancy is skipping along nicely. Are you feeling good? Have you told people yet? I can't believe that all those months ago we were both cycling together. Feels like a lifetime ago. I'm so glad it worked out for one of us at least, and maybe this will be my turn!! Thanks for asking about DH. Things aren't going great for him and, to be honest, he's really struggling. I worry so much about him - not good for IVF I think!

Franny - Hey, my 2ww buddy! Sorry to hear of your horrible POAS experience last time. I've never done it before, but I figured this time why would I wait for the dreaded phone call when I'm at work, where I have to somehow hold it all together, rather than get an answer in the privacy of home, with DH. Ugh, I don't know! And to answer your question, I'm actually South African, but lived for nearly 20 years in London before coming to live in Geneva 2 years ago. My job brought us here. It's an amazing place.

Lauran - A 10.4 lining sounds perfect. Your transfer must be about to happen! Let us know when you're PUPO!

Latrell - are you out there? Any news? I'm crossing everything for you! :?:

AFM - still no symptoms, nothing, zip, zero, nada... apart, I should say, from constipation, headaches, spots (it moved from my forehead to my chin!) and a great big swollen belly (from all the meds + consitpation) - sorry TMI! So things are not looking so pretty round these parts! It's weird but I just don't FEEL pregnant and I'm getting a horrible feeling that this hasn't worked for me. Trying hard to stay positive but I'm also trying to prepare myself for the worst. I hope I'm not talking myself into a negative result!!! AAaaarrrrgghhhh! :?

Love to all

Beta today was negative. Just wanted to let you all know and to say thanks so much for all of your support. I probably won't be back on. RE says that I have a 10-20% chance since I'm such a poor responder to the meds. I don't see any reason for me to put myself through another round and have to pay so much money out of pocket to be told no again. I can't take it again..can barely take it this time. My best wishes to all of you and many congrats to all that have received your BFPs! I love you guys.
