MONDAY 1/15, U/S SHOWED FOLLICLES ARE 9'S, 10'S, 11'S......AND THOSE FAMOUS LAST WORDS "EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT" SO I GO IN AGAIN WEDNESDAY FOR ANOTHER U/S........AND THEN THEY ARE GOING TO EXPLAIN THE GANARELIX (INSTEAD OF THE LUPRON THIS TIME)....SO THAT WILL MAKE (3) SHOTS A DAY THIS ROUND. I ASKED WHEN THEY THOUGHT THE ER WOULD BE AND SHE THOUGHT MAYBE 1/20/07???

I am glad things are falling into place for you. Keep us posted. I will let you know more when I go in on 1/19. Good luck with the ER. I have a good feeling for you. Baby Dust is in the air.

HI JEN:

WHEN DO YOU GO IN FOR YOU MED CONSULTATION.....THE ONE WHERE THEY SHOW YOU HOW AND WHERE TO GIVE YOUR SHOTS? IF I WERE YOU, I'D BRING IN THE WHOLE BOX.....GO THROUGH EVERY MED....AND CHECK TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH OF THE RIGHT SIZE NEEDLES. I DIDN'T DO THAT THIS TIME LIKE I DID THE LAST FEW TIMES BECAUSE THERE WAS NEVER A MISTAKE....THIS TIME THE (4TH TIME) I'M SHORT A FEW OF THE 27 GAUGE 1/2" NEEDLES....SO NOW I HAVE TO ORDER SOME.....IT'S JUST ONE LESS THING YOU SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHEN IT GETS CLOSE TO CRUNCH TIME.

I go for the meds consult this friday the 19th, along with a U/S & blood work. I put everything into a box, smaller than what it came in so it will be easy to carry. I can't believe how much there is. I am glad you told me to take everything because at first it I wasn't going to. But I did change my mind. I think things will go good. I can't believe we are starting this friday. Time went by fast. I was just thinking within about 1 1/2 months we should know if we get a BFP. It really isn't that long if you think about it. SO did you have your U/S yet? I hope it is turning out great.

I ENDED UP GETTING CALLED IN THURSDAY BECAUSE SOME NUMBERS WERE UP HIGHER THAN THEY THOUGHT THEY'D BE.......I'M SUPPOSED TO DO THE HCG SHOT TONIGHT......THEN ANITBIOTIC SAT.....AND ER SUNDAY!

JENHOPE: HOW DID THE APPOINTMENT GO? I HOPE YOUR NOT FREAKED OUT BY THE SHOTS.......I PERSONALLY DIDN'T LIKE DOING THEM IN THE THIGH, I CHOSE THE STOMACH AND IT DIDN'T PICK OR BURN AS MUCH...I ALSO CHOSE TO BE BUSY RIGHT AFTER THE SHOTS BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU MIND WORKS OVERTIME AND YOU SIT THERE AND KEEP ASKING THE QUESTIONS "WHY ME?......" ALSO.....DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DON'T WEIGH YOURSELF DURING THIS, IT'S ONE MORE THING YOUR DON'T NEED TO BE WORRYING ABOUT.

BEST WISHES TO EVERYONE!

Thanks for the tip about weighing, I know I will gain, which I am trying to loose now. It is just horrible, It is hard to loose. My med consult was good. I am not freaked anymore, and am planning to do my stomach, lots of fat there. I am only worried when my husband has to give my HCG shot, he scares me. I can handle doing it my self, since I give shots to others and am use to it. My ultrasound was good and so was my progesteron level, so I get to start my Lupron now. I am glad, I start today. Now I just need to wait for AF to start again. I hope it starts early. Time will tell I guess.

GOOD MORNING....THE DR. CALLED TODAY 1/22 AND SAID OF THE 13 FOLLIES......7 WERE FERTILIZED......BECAUSE OF MY AGE AND WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME......HE SAID HE'S SHOOTING FOR A 5 DAY TRANSFER....SO THAT PUTS ME ON FRIDAY 1/26 FOR ET. I'M NOT GETTING TO EXCITED, BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME....BUT I STILL WANT TO SAY THANKS FOR ALL THE PRAYERS AND BEST WISHES!

I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST AND PLEASE KEEP POSTING........IT'S NICE TO HEAR HOW EVERYONE IS DOING!

I am glad to hear your update. I said I think 2007 is going to be good one for everyone. I am going to keep praying for you. Let's keep the fingers cross, can you belive it, you could be a mom in about 9 months from now. I know you don't want to get hopes up, but I also know it is hard not to do. Still in the back of your head you are excited. Sometimes it is easier to stay negative because then you will not be let down, you begin to prepare your self for the worse. But some one said to me that it isn't fair if you think negative because if it is positive you missed out on the positive part of it. Which is true. Gosh I am so excited for you! It is weird because I hardly even know you but I feel for you. It is nice to have friends like you. Good Luck.

Oh, I started the Lupron on Friday, not bad at all. I thought it would have been worse, since I hate needles. But it will all be worth it in the end. Now is the 2 week wait, hopefully sooner.

WHAT'S WIERD ABOUT "THIS" TIME IS I FELT MORE RELAXED AND NOT SO ANGRY THAT "SOMEONE.....WHETHER I WAS PUTTING THE BLAME ON ME OR THE CLINIC FOR UNEXPLAINED ISSUES". I ALSO DID ACUPUNCTURE THIS TIME.....AND I KNOW I FELT MORE RELAXED.....SO AS OF RIGHT NOW, SINCE THAT IS THE ONLY THING I DID DIFFERENT IN THE PAST 12 YEARS......BESIDES THE FLARE PROTOCAL, I'M ALL FOR ACUPUNCTURE. THE DR. JUST CALLED 1/23.....HE EVEN SOUNDS EXCITED......IT WAS A GREAT CALL! HE SAID THERE ARE "A COUPLE EXCELLENT ONES....A COUPLE GOOD ONES....AND A COUPLE NOT SO GOOD.....BUT I'M VERY EXCITED AT WHAT I'M SEEING AND WE'RE SETTING A TIME AND DATE FOR THIS FRIDAY FOR ET" OK.....I'D BE A TOTAL LIAR IF I SAID I WASN'T EXCITED NOW. I WASN'T EVER NEGATIVE THOUGH, JUST TRYING TO KEEP MY EMOTIONS MORE STABLE....NOT GETTING WORKED UP OR DOWN ABOUT ANY OF THE NUMBERS YOUR GIVEN IN ALL THOSE WEEKS OF TESTING. THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL THE PRAYERS....I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH HOW MUCH THIS BOARD HELPS WITH INFORMATION AND VENTING!

jenhope · Post by **jenhope** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 5:22 pm

See, this is all a good sign. I know what you mean about venting. Being on this Lupron is making me really moody. My husband is gone a lot, I feel like everyone I talk to is getting sick of hearing what is going on in this process. I told my husband last night I feel like I am going through all these emotions by myself, except I can speak to others with the same problem through the message boards. I don't know what I would do with out all this support, and reading others stories. I never thought I would be this excited and addicted to these boards.

Gosh friday isn't long at all. This is really happening. The calming feeling you have is good. Same thing I have about this whole ordeal. I don't know why or can't explain why but I am relaxed and calm, compared to when we were just deciding what to do. I am so happy for you. Keep me posted.

HI AGAIN:

ABOUT THESE BOARDS.......I'D BE LOST WITHOUT IT. I CAN'T TELL ANYONE WHAT I'M DOING.....I'D GET NO SUPPORT AND I KNOW I'D ROYALLY JACKED UP FROM A LOT OF MY FRIENDS.......BEING I'M 41 AND ALL. ALL THROUGH MY (2) IUI TRIES.....IT WAS VERY LONELY. MY 1ST IVF ATTEMPT WAS HEARTBREAKING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T GET ANY FERTILIZED EGGS AT ALL......AND MY DH WAS CRUSHED AND AFTER SEEING HOW HARD I WAS TAKING IT, HE SAID WE WERE DONE LAST YEAR. WELL, I CONVINCED HIM TO TRY ONE MORE TIME......SO THIS IS IT. BEFORE AND AFTER ER, I WAS VERY EMOTIONAL, EVERYTIME I LOOKED IN HIS EYES I STARTED TO CRY. IT WAS HARD TO EVEN TALK TO THE DR, MY RN, THE ANESTHESIOLOGIST....THE TEARS WERE ROLLING. I FINALLY CAN WALK AROUND TODAY WITHOUT LOOKING LIKE I'M IN PAIN BECAUSE FOR SOME REASON MY BOD DOESN'T TAKE ER VERY GOOD.

ANYHOW, THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS AND KEEP ME POSTED ON HOW YOUR DOING ON YOUR MEDS......AND WHAT YOUR SCHEDULE IS......AND WHEN YOUR UPCOMING ER WILL BE

jenhope · Post by **jenhope** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 10:50 pm

Well, we will have eachother to talk to, and go through this adventure together. So how many eggs? Is tomorrow, friday still the day? I hope so, I will be thinking of you and wishing you good luck.

HI JEN

ET WAS A SNAP.....NO PAIN AT ALL (JUST THE SHOT IN THE BUTT HURTED A LITTLE). THEN YOU LAY THERE FOR 2 HOURS....AND MY DH COULDN'T BE THERE BECAUSE OF WORK. SO I GOT AN ADDITIONAL 3 HOURS TO LAY THERE AND JUST REST. THEN THEY TOLD ME (3) DAYS HOME AND BED REST. THAT WAS HARD....I'M NOT THE LAY AROUND TYPE.....I ACTUALLY GOT STIFF AND SORE FROM SITING IN THE RECLINER....GOING TO THE COUCH....GOING TO BED......IT WAS WIERD. I GET TESTED MON. 2/5/07. I'M PRAYING SO HARD....IT'S LIKE IT'S CONSUMED MY EVERY THOUGHT NOW........MY DH AND I AREN'T TALKING MUCH RIGHT NOW.....HE'S SO NERVOUS AND I'M SO ANCIOUS AND JUST TRYING TO STAY POSITIVE.......SO HOW ARE YOU DOING ON YOUR MEDS? WHEN'S YOUR NEXT APPOINTMENT? DO YOU SEE ANY FOLLIES YET?

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR KIND WORDS AND PRAYERS!

jenhope · Post by **jenhope** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 10:50 pm

Hey that is awesome, I have been thinking about how things are going. I am praying for you. I just can't believe it. Well AF came today so 2/2 u/s & blood work and start stims. I think ER will be within 2 weeks. I can't believe we are this far already. Wow. Things are just falling into place with us both. I will be surely thinking about you on 2/5, and keeping my fingers crossed. I know you must be going out of your mind right now. How are you trying not to think about it.? Do you feel any different? I know it is too soon to tell, but what do you think? I know you don't want to get your hopes up. But how can you not, right. Well I have to run. Take care, This is it

Keep positive. Keep me posted, please!!

HI THERE

I WENT IN FOR BLOOD WORK TODAY......THEY'LL CALL WITH RESULTS THIS AFTERNOON.......THEY WON'T TEST ME SUNDAY - SHE SAID THERE WERE NO ER'S OR ET'S....SO NO SUPER BOWL PARTYING FOR ME. I WILL BE IN THE OFFICE 1ST THING MONDAY MORNING.....I HAVE NO CLUES HOW LONG THEY WILL MAKE ME WAIT......GOD THIS WAITING IS KILLING ME THOUGH. I DON'T FEEL ANY DIFFERENT AT ALL. I KEEP THINKING ABOUT WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE.....OR COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENT......SHOTS WERE ALL ON SCHEDULE, I WAS WATCHING EVERYTHING TO A "T" JUST LIKE I'VE DONE IN THE PAST. I WAS READING SOME OTHER POSTS, AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHEN THEY PUT "BOTH EMBIES" BACK I TRIED FIND OUT WHAT GRADE THEY WERE OR HOW MANY CELLS.....I'M NOT SURE IF YOU'VE READ ABOUT THAT STUFF AT ALL, OR WHAT YOU KNOW ON IT, BUT I FEEL LOST WHEN IT COMES TO THOSE KIND OF TECHNICAL THINGS. MRS. SEVERINO DID THE ET INSTEAD OF MARY ANN....SHE SAID THEY LOOKED GREAT, SOMETHING ABOUT A NUMBER "4" AND GRADE "AA" THE TWO SHE FROZE WERE A "4 AB" I'VE SEEN ON SOME OTHER BOARDS NUMBERS LIKE 8 W/ #2'S.....SO I'M LOST. I JUST WISH I FELT SOMETHING.....JILL GAVE ME SUCH A BIG HUG THIS MORNING.....I JUST LOVE HER AND JENNY H. .....CIA & BETH.....THEY ARE TRUELY GREAT AT THEIR JOBS.

I KNOW THE 2ND DAY OF AF AND THEN GETTING AN U/S SUCKS....YOU FEEL LIKE "GOD, I WOULD HATE THEIR JOB.........IT GOES FAST THOUGH. HANG IN THERE AND REMEMBER TO KEEP TALKING ABOUT STUFF, THE MOODS AND EMOTIONS ARE ALL NORMAL!!!

HAS ANYONE HAD SUCCESS AFTER NO FERTILIZATION WHEN DOING IVF
