Not looking so good for me! I started spotting on Tuesday...it was light & brown. It continued into yesterday. I wasn't too concerned. But, today I'm worried...it's redder & heavier like a period. Im not really cramping...just here & there. I've never started bleeding or had spotting in my previous cycles. I was always on PIO, so I'm not sure if the Crinone I'm on this cycle doesn't delay AF. Ugh...so frustrating!

A strong, positive attitude will create more miracles than any wonder drug.

Ok ladies need some feedback, :roll:

We are trying to squeeze my ER and ET in May due to LOTS of scheduling problems in June. There are 2 main problems with May. 1. we have Memorial Day vacation so my RE office will be closed some extra days and 2. they are going to have to do my baseline U/S on Monday (2nd) to see if my ovaries are suppressed after only 7 days of BCP instead of the normal 14 days. What do you ladies think? Is it possible? Has anyone else done this fast of a schedule? Also, this is my first time using the Nuvaring instead of pill BCP. Not sure if that makes a difference. :?

Thanks everyone!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol:

Ester - just crashing to say don't give up hope just yet. Almost every one of us on the pregnant board had bleeding and/or spotting at some point early on. I had some due to my cervix being irritated from the Endometrin suppositories and then some later on when I went off the progesterone. I've been checking this thread all along to follow you and I'm still hoping and praying for you! Hopefully your beta tomorrow will be great!!

Hello guys!

I just found this board and thought I would join. Here is my story:

I am 39 I have had two BFN cycles. I cycled in 2002 with my ex husband and again this past January with my great new husband of almost 5 years. I have two girls from my first marriage that are almost 15 and almost 16 both coceived without help. I had my tubes tied when my youngest was born and the dr did such an excellant job IVF is my only choice. I do have a good AMH level . Before the January cycle it was 3.8. I have no idea what it is now cant be that much lower. I have done the testing for natural killer cell and its negative and my lining is good for an old fart. I guess my infertility issue is the tubal being tied and old eggs since I will be 40 in January. I am on my 3rd attempt this month. I started Lupron on the 8th then switched to ganerelix a few days later. I started my stims on Monday. I have had 3 shots of Follistim and start Menopur tonight. I did take 2 estrodial shots last week , doing a estrodial suppository and steriod now with Prenatals and grapeseed to help. I go in for a check on Monday wish me luck. This will be my last attempt before I turn 40.

:D

MooreBaby: Hang in there! It ain't over 'til its over =)

Heather: so sorry <<<<hugs>>>>>

TexasGal: Welcome! You're in the right place =)

Easley: Why not wait until July? You don't want to be stressed out and second guessing yourself by rushing into a cycle. Maybe ask Ghost on the main discussion forum page and get his feedback.

Moorebaby,
I know you must be freaking out, maybe it is the crinone...but I am over here praying that tomorrow will bring you a BFP!

Heather,
I am so sorry, it really have been a rough week for both of us...Sometimes we can learn from these cycles plus RE can change things up to ensure better results in the near future! :mrgreen:

Easley,
Good luck with the scheduling, only you can decide what is best, but with all the money invested, you need to be relaxed and not rushed. maybe we'll see you on the Summer Board?

Lee,
Congratulations on your embabies, yes they are getting ready to come home to mama!

AFM: Staying busy with work--thankfully to make time fly by and start a new treatment cycle this June. Will be here before we know it! :D
