Cheeky Monkey - The move was postponed! we now move next Wednesday! everything happens for a reason.... You have to rest up and sleep!! do not worry about things that are totally out of your hands, if I was closer I'd pop round and give you some reiki...calm you down.. :lol: 75 is a small dose so do not worry, they may up it in time if deemed necessary, I had nearly 70 follicles this time round and they nearly cancelled ET and I got there!!! despite everything else that was going on, you can do this kiddo, go get a big bar of galaxy and pig out!!! :lol: Keep smiling xx


M'BA - CONGRATS!!!!!!!! I am so pleased for you x

Wendy: congrats on your BFP. Wishing you a healthy pregnancy!

Cheekymonkey: I am so sorry for the bad news. Haven't been in the same position so don't have much to add, but you are in my thoughts and prayers and i am hoping you get better news tomorrow. Everything crossed for you. Don't worry about "being down" on the board...i think that is the whole point-- to have a place to vent when needed.

Holly: Good luck on your ET. Tons of sticky baby dust to you!

For my american sisters, Happy Thanksgiving!! The turkey is in the oven and i can't wait!!!

Jovigal, you asked what we are thankful for? I am thankful for my dh and that at least we get to go through this IF stuff together. I am thankful for both my and dh's families-- especially the nieces and nephews (even though it is hard sometimes). I am grateful for my faith and the strength i derive from prayer. I am grateful for my health. I am grateful for the comforts i have in my life-- recently traveling to africa and china has given me a different perspective on what i truly NEED. I am grateful that i have the means to continue paying for IVF--at least a few more times. I am grateful that the medical science exists so that we can all have a shot at having children that we probably otherwise would not have. I am grateful for my career (although i am not working much right now), and the fulfillment it has brought into my life. I am grateful for my good friends that are supportive, even if they don't truly understand. I could go on and on, but i would bore you all to death.

Truly grateful for the simple bounty of my life....

HOpe everyone has a great tgiving!!

Hi all - typing from bed...I'm officially joining the 2ww! And, we got quite a blessing today and truly have something more than ever to be thankful for.

All three embies had progressed.....and, 2 were grade 1, 8-cells! They were the best we'd ever had - even the lab director was shocked. The third was a 6-cell, grade 2, a bit of fragmentation, but not too bad. Even my RE jokingly asked, 'what did you eat this time.' I had gone in with great hopes, but also w/ a realistic perspective that if we were lucky, we'd get one good one. I feel so happy.

Cindy - it was great to see you there! Hope you're feeling better. Were you happy with how things went this morning? You sounded pretty good.

Cheeky - I don't know what to say - I wish I could help more. 75 u of fsh seems pretty low, but I'm no doctor. Are you also on an LH/fsh combo (like repronex/menopur)? I sense from your post this may have happened before, right? I think you're right, though, that you deserve a more complete answer from your RE.

Wendy - congrat's on your bfp - what wonderful news! And your 8th attempt - you are truly a trooper and an inspiration! Great job.

Holly - welcome to the 2ww too! Hope things went well today for you too.

Well...hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

xoxoxo,

- Suzhan

Happy thanksgiving!! I have to say that I am grateful and thankful for my family, my dogs, my home and my health. I am truely blessed and regardless of all that I am going through right now or whatever happens in the future, I am going to always be OK, especially because of my wonderful husband.

Suzhan, you made it. I'm so happy for you!

Wow, more BFPs!! Congrats to all the new BFPs.

I got AF yesterday. I'm supposed to have my baseline tomorrow and start stims. The bad news is; My IVF co-ordiantor was supposed to set it up for me yesterday and she called me while I was in a noisy store and didn't hear my cel phone ring. She wanted to know what meds I have left over from my last cycle so she could order my new meds for tomorrow. By the time I realized I had a message, they we're closed. I never got in contact with her and I have no clue if I'll get to start tomorrow, or if it's too late to start saturday if I need to. I have just one day worth of follistim and 2 days of menopur. If we ordered meds tomorrow and overnighted it, I'd be ok, as long as i can get my basline done. I hope I didn't screw myself. :? I'm going to call first thing in the morning to find out what to do.

Sorry I don't have much time for personals or the list right now. I feel bad so I posted a group calendar. Please everyone add your info and upcoming appointment dates. my.calendars.net/novgirls That way at least everyone can keep up to date, including me.

Mia--
I hope you get this before am... FCLV has emergency supply of meds available. A day or two of meds shouldn't be a problem, so please don't worry. Congrats on the arrival of AF. Good luck on your US, hoping everything goes well.

Thanks sassynlv, that is good to know they have a supply. I kind of thought they might. I am looking forward to making some fresh eggs, but not more injections and BTs. :shock: I can't believe it's starting so fast!
