Yay! Another Vag Cam Apt Today

So, today is cd5, and I'm headed back to the RE this a.m. to see if I really get to cycle after all. I was there Friday morning, but I appeared to be mid-cycle in that my lining was still pretty thick and I had a follical/cyst that looked ready to ovulate. I knew I was cycle day one though, and by the afternoon my flow was plenty heavy to where I am positive my lining will no longer be too thick. But, not sure what to make of the cyst on my ovary. Hopefully it's gone away by now. I don't really know how those thing behave. Do they typically resolve themselves in a few days?

Anyway, I am going to find out in a couple hours. Hope with me that everything looks good and I can start injectables tonight!

  • Cyst was def a cyst and not a folli.  But, we are moving forward anyways.  I'm doing bravelle through Sunday, then have an apt next week on Monday.  At that point, we'll determine if I should continue for three more days or what.  Plan will be to trigger and then TI.

  • No advice on the cyst... I have one, but it's an endo cyst, so probably a different story (mine has been there for a while). I hope yours is gone soon. Good luck!

  • So, I just got the call from the pharmacist to pay for my meds.  I know that my over all cost for this cycle pales in comparison to what many of you ladies are paying…  But, I'm a little peeved that when I met with the nurse in July to discuss this cycle, her estimate for the TOTAL cost of the cycle (meds, monitoring, etc) was so far off!  

    As in, this cycle is costing about three times as much as she estimated for us. So, this is it.  I don't see how we will do this again any time soon.  If it doesn't work, maybe possibly we can swing one more out of the left overs from DH's student loans.  I'm kind of on the verge of tears realizing how much pressure there is for this to work out.  I've been dealing with this 2IF stuff pretty well, for the most part.  But it's all catching up with me over these last couple weeks.

  • I'm with you on the money end of it. I know it costs no where near IVF, but it's so hard to make decisions about what to do when money is a factor. Hopefully this cycle works for you!

    My History:
    Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
    Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
    Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
    Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
    Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
    About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!

    1st Beta 13dpiui 54, 2nd beta 48 hours later 115, 3rd beta 48 hours later 310, 4th beta 72 hours later 1748.
