April/May Cycle Buddies 2008
Well the pharmacy that was supposed to deliver my meds called and said my shipment missed the truck yesterday, so now I won't get them until Monday. 
I know I don't need them until Wed, but I was still looking forward to getting them. I work during the day, that's why I wanted a Sat shipment! Oh well, I guess I will get to see them in a couple days.
So how is everyone else doing on this beautiful Saturday? Well, it's beautiful here in NC anyway!!
Jeanie: Congrats on the ET!! 2 is plenty!! I'll be praying for you and those little embies to grow! And yes, I have to pay for everything myself. My insurance isn't covering anything. They did cover any oral meds we got, but that's pretty much it. But can you really put a price tag on babies!!
Hope you are all doing well!

Hi yall!
This has been a crazy weekend for me!
DH was in a car accident Friday, so I didn't have time to post. Nothing serious, but the car was banged up so we had to take it to the repair shop and get a loaner. Plus, since it was his fault, so that makes it even worse. I was like, I do not need this stress! Praise God he wasn't hurt!
Went for another US today, the RE wants me to stim one more day, so I have to go back tomorrow for another US, but I think I will be triggering tomorrow night!
ER for Tuesday April 22!!!!
I hope everyone is doing well, and I am praying for all of you!
Whatever the outcome may be, remember we are all God's children and in His eyes we are perfect no matter what!
God Bless! And Go Spurs Go!!!

Hi Sameera-
Adriana's doing very well. She's a little bloated too, but when you're 110lbs that can happen. Hey, did you use a hot cloth after injecting the progesterone (if you used progesterone)? I just did the long needle injection for her and she didn't even feel it! I iced down the injection site and now I think she should use heat to spread the medicine out a bit. We went for a walk after the injection too.
Oh, we're transferring 2.
I'm really glad to hear that you're doing great and have cravings. I don't know what that means but I think it must be good and I'm praying for you! Come over and I'll make you some spicy fajitas and salsa too. Mmmmm...Mexican!
Anyway, speaking of food, I'm preparing her post-transfer dinner menu for Monday. A nice angus chuck roast with vegetables in the slow cooker. 10 hours after a 20 minute prep and the whole house will smell incredible. Man, I'm hungry now!

Hello everyone! Glad to see this thread a little more active. It had been quiet for a couple of days.
DH and I are moving in June and we're trying to find a house to rent without much luck. That's kind of frustrating, but we'll figure it out.
I feel bloated on Lupron. Or maybe I'm just eating too much.
JesJes, that is an awesome fert report. I can only hope to make so many strong embryos. One of them has to stick!
Donna, how are you doing? I'm still thinking about you.
Sameera, I think the spicy food as too be a good sign. That and the continued bloating!
Jeanie, sorry your not feeling well. Looks like your long, lovely post came through. Two 8-cells is perfect. I'm sending sticky dust. A walk on the beach with DH and the furry baby? I'm jealous.
Dri-Jim, 5 embryos is a very good number. It only takes one. You may end up with some ice babies, too! Two is a good number to transfer.
Chelly, sorry about your car. Car accidents suck. It's just more stuff to deal with.
Your DH is safe and that's what matters. You get to trigger soon? Oh, how exciting! Good luck!
Jharris, sorry your medicines didn't come. I really looked forward going through the box, too. The will arrive soon enough. Let us know when they do. What medicines will you be taking?
wantamiraclebaby, did you start lupron today? How'd it go?
To everyone, good luck, sticky dust! I'm anxiously awaiting your good news!

Re: Hi all.
JesJes, We did our cycle through SRM. We had most of appointments in the Tacoma office and a few Sunday BD's and US's in the Seattle office. The ER and ET was also done in Seattle. We have had a great experience with SRM and they have been the best. Congrats and your ER and good luck with your ET on Monday. Yea we are just down the road from you guys, such crazy weather the last few days. We are getting some small snow showers the evening, who would of thought in April.JesJes wrote: Joe~
Good Luck to you both on your 2ww, I am in Bellevue, WA not far from yall! Did you cycle in Seattle?
Take Care, Joe
Jim, how are you weathering the wait? How's your DW handling the injections? I live in Chicago now and we're moving to Champaign-Urbana (downstate Illinois). Where are you?

Hi guys! Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days.
Amber-how are you doing?
JesJes, DriJim, Jeanie-congrats on everything! I know this is a difficult time, remember we are all here for support!
Sameera-Remember, the 2 embies transferred were the best. My clinic says only 10% of couples have anything to freeze. I didn't last cycle either, but they told me that had nothing to do with the great embies that were transferred. I know this 2ww is the hardest time of all.
Donna-How are you doing today? Like I said to Sameera, I know this is the hardest time of all.
Courtney and Chelly-Congrats! Let us know how the ER goes.
Chelly-so glad DH is ok! I know you don't need anymore stress.
Jeanie-yes, we have a king sized bed! Definitely helps. How are you doing today?
Hi Yellow, SD trying, Daisy, Rubylee, Hopeful, Chris, jharris and anyone else I may have missed.
I'm thinking of all of you and praying for BFPs!
Update on me: b/w and u/s looked good this past Friday, Apr 18. So, I started follistem 4/18! yeah!!! I go back tomorrow for b/w--if everything continues going well I should have ER 4/30 and ET 5/3-5/5. So, hopefully just a week behind from my original schedule.
Sorry if I missed anyone--It has been a hectic week at work and weekend so far--trying to rest before I have to get up early and drive 2.5 hrs to a 10min appt tomorrow .

glad to here everyones progress this is wonderful !!
DrJen - You are right that's what my RE said - that day I was so upset I called him and he talked to me and he said it's okay if all the other ones didn't made it to frozen. But the ones they transfered were the best quality and not to worry about it.
yay on good b/w and everything. Sounds like things are going smoothly. ER is right around the corner
Courtney - Good luck - try to relax and hope your ER goes well.
Chelly - sorry about your dh's car accident but at least he is alright. Try not to stress, just relax. Hope all goes well on your ER too.
Yellow - Good luck with your house hunting, hope you find one soon
Dri-Jim - OMG you know how to cook that stuff that's awesome!! adriana is lucky. My hubby poor thing doesn't know how to fix anything except for tv dinners but I still love him to death
Although, mexican food sounds good - I have been eating those big fat stuffed burritos with like very hot salsa..OMG they are sooooo good.
and all this food talking is making me hungry.
I guess I will take the rain check on this Mexican food LOL
Hows everyone else doing?

Good Sunday to yall!
Had another us/bw today...I have to take 2 more vials of Bravelle now, then I trigger tonight at 8:30!! I still have to go tomorrow for another bw...but ER is a go for Tuesday!
Thank you all for your kind words and prayers!
Sameera- how are you hanging in there...when is your beta?
DrJen- Congrats on starting the stims! From there is goes so fast...too bad you have to drive so far for your appts! Be safe driving and keep us up to date!
Jim- DH has been very supportive, but I know he has not planned a post ET dinner for me! Your DW is soo lucky; my guy's repetoire of cooking skills is limited to grilling! We will be transferring 2 also; hopefully your other 3 embies will make it to freeze...remember it only takes 1 for a baby! I will be praying for you and Adriana!
Yellow- Bloating with lupron is nothing, wait till you start stimming! I can hardly button my pants; hopefully I will need a whole new wardrobe in a few months!
Jeanie- are you a furr baby mommy too? I have 2 pekingese...and they pretty much run my life! Snickers and Pikachu...Snickers is my baby girl...she lets me cradle her and she'll sleep with me for hours! (too bad pekingese snore!)
God Bless...DH and I are going to see an early movie...I'll give reviews when I get back-
