HEIDI!!!!
I have to go for now. I have lots of :bding: to do if you know what i mean...:wink::wink:. Then I am going to :sleeping:. So goodnight :sleepy: my little IUI sister :kiss:
ERIN!!!!!! :hooray::hooray::hooray::hooray::hooray:
I'm so excited for you! What a roller coaster and you're not even in the 2ww yet! jeesh!
I also wanted to add, that the numbers don't tell the whole story, so try (and I know it's HARD) not to put too too much stock in them. At my last ER my E2 was 2800. They thought I'd maybe get 12 eggs. I got 23, 19 of those mature. They had all the u/s and the E2 info and were still off. Lots of growing happens in those last hours before your ER! Eat lots of protein for your eggies and rest up!
Thanks Lisa. I know, I'm getting so excited again, I didn't think I would after my cycle was cancelled last month.
Hi Erin, I've just triggered my ER is Thursday also, 7.30am urgh!!! Suppose this prepares us for early mornings with children. Good luck to you and make sure you are pampered all day.:celebrate:
We should both be having our ET sunday if you are doing a 3day transfer:hooray:
BTW your E2 levels are great - they like to see 200 per mature follicle and with 4 at 23mm and the rest not far behind, you should see at least 6 good eggies, so unless you are planning more than sextuplets you should have enough for a few babies.
Just for all you ladies out there, here are my results from today's u/s and yesterday's bloodwork - I have 7 follies, 4 on the left 21mm, 18mm & (2) 16mm, 3 on the right, (2) 17mm and a 15mm currently they are growing about 2mm per day so should all be a good size for Thursday. My E2 was 1154 my lining is 10.3 and my progestrone is either 0.5 or 0.05, I couldn't understand that one and I'm not even sure what it means. This is the first time the RN has provided that info. So I'm praying that they all have eggies in them, they all fertilize so we have spares to freeze but if all else fails I just hope we get 3-4 to implant as it looks like this time I have a "beauty rest" bed ready for them.
I'll try and post Friday with our recovery and fertilization results.
Maxine
Erin--so excited for your retrieval!! :hooray::hooray:
And Elle, yay for the first u/s--wasn't it exciting? :silly:
Lisa, I am going in tomorrow for my second u/s as well (it was supposed to be Thursday, but I managed to finagle a day early!) I will keep my fingers crossed that we both find super strong heartbeats! Good luck!
MAX, woohoo! I'm excited for you, too!
Wonderful news Max! Boy today really turned out good. I am starting to believe our little group here is filled with some pretty magical people. Great things seem to come to all in this room. Good luck to you on thursday and cant wait for updates. :hooray::hooray::hugs:
Anyone else in here besides me feeling exteme m/s. I have it all day everyday for about the last week. It is getting harder and harder to eat. I really have to force myself.
Update . . . haven't posted about it yet, but I had an IUI last Monday. I'm not feeling very optimistic though. On the Friday before the IUI I had one follicle at 15 and one around 11-12. I was told to trigger on Sunday for IUI on Monday. Last time my follicle was at 24 on u/s day, so I'm worried about the small numbers this time. I know they continue to grow, but still . . .. I also couldn't lay on the table for the 15 minutes after the procedure. I waited about 5 before I had to rush to a previously-scheduled appointment. I'm 8DPIUI today, but not optimistic. If it doesn't work this month, I think that we are going to move on to injectables buy I am very worried about cost and scheduling.
Erin! I'm thrilllllllllllled for you!!! Thursday is just around the corner! Will you do a 3 or 5 day ET? I can't believe it's almost time for you to grow some babies in there!!! YEY!!!
Girls, I have tons of things to do tonight, and just jumped on quickly but will be back as soon as I can to send good wishes to everyone else! :hug:
OMG, Maxine that is wonderful! How cool is it that you both have your ER on Thursday?? That means you will effectively have the same DD, right?? How stinking cool!
HI Lisa!! When I started the megace I had "m/s" BAD- it was horrible. I hope is passes quickly for you, but with the meds you are taking (I am sure u are on some sort of progesterone, yes?) that doesn't help any. The progesterone is what makes ya sicko :bleh:
Thanks for the prayers and well wishes. You guys are so sweet! I hadnt really responded to Erin's comments about it, cause I know that is not what this thread is about and I didnt want to take anything away from you all and your amazing IVF experiences. But, yes... two weeks left and I Am very excited!!
Babyhopes dont :pace: it seems when we think things are going wrong and it wont work then :belly3: so hang in there! You had a good size follicle so have some :pray: faith!
We are going to do injectibles when I start AF I'm waiting now for AF to start tomorrow will be 2 days late! I hope this month works for you :hugs:
Max & Erin, good luck tomorrow, girls!! Sending TONS of eggie vibes. :vibes::vibes::vibes:
