  • @Colleen0516 OMG! Not gonna lie, I believed you had a bruise but though you were exaggerating for comedic effect. That is one crazy bruise!!! Are you going to let him try again, or is someone else taking on the injects now? Hahaha. As y'all know, I'm only following your journies, but I have to give injects for my TI cycles by myself because my injection time frame falls during work and my commute. My first one was on a Sunday, so DH did it for me. I actually prefer giving them to myself now. It seems like added stress/drama around my situation when he does it for some reason. No idea why...
    Married to DH 10/6/12
    TTC since 5/14
    Unexplained with (controlled) hypothyroidism and suspected ovulatory dysfunction (but, I do ovulate on my own)
    Clomid 50 mg 3/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
    Clomid 50 mg + metformin 4/15 (unmonitored) - BFN 
    First RE appt. 5/15; Natural cycle 5/15 monitored with 2 mature follicles and Pregnyl Trigger (full dose) + prometrium - BFN
    6/15 HSG - clear tubes & normal uterus; great PCT test results
    TI - 100 mg Clomid + prometrium (AM & PM) + vaginal estrace (AM & PM) 6-7/15 (monitored) --> no additional response and thinned lining - BFN
    TI - Injectables (follistim + Gonal-F, Ganirelix, & 1/2 dose Pregnyl) + prometrium (AM & PM) 9/15 --> 3-7 mature follicles (3 definites and 4+ that could have matured due to trigger) @ O -->BFN + 5 large cysts
    BC for 2 weeks due to cysts
    TI - Injectables (Gonal-F, Ganirelix & full dose Pregnyl) + prometrium (AM & PM) 10/15 --> 1 mature follicle --> BFN 
    TI - Last attempt at injectables (Gonal-F, Ganirelix & 1/2 dose Pregnyl) + crinone (AM only) + vaginal estrace (AM & PM) 11/15 --> 3-4 mature follicles --> BFP!! 11/27/15 @ 13dpo (shockingly, actually waited until then to test)

    Beta #1 @ 16dpo (11/30/15) = 1,075
    Beta #2 @ 19dpo (12/3/15) = 3,150
    One baby: Saw heartbeat @ 5w5d (114 bpm; baby measuring 2.3mm)

    "Great Things are Happening"
  • @Colleen0516 yowzah! Is DH drowning in unnecessary guilt? My DH felt bad when I ran away from the needle after he stuck it in. Lol. That's a great story, worthy of a bruise. Like a badge of IVF honor.
  • A serious badge of honor lol

    Yes @riveridgional lol I'll give him a second change haha it was probably more me than him anyways but def a funny story!

    I can't do them myself otherwise I so would!

  • Omg that bruise is insane, and just from a falling needle?! Yikes!!! I always did menupor last also because it's my least favorite!! And @HBamama2B totally seem appropriately hormonal and preggers! Haha. Hasn't hit me yet. I'm sure my time is soon.... Somehow I survived an all day/night bachelorette bar crawl without anyone noticing my mocktails! Not sure how long I can keep up the charade....plus with twins and being pretty lean I'm guessing you show early? Any twin bumps out there already forming?

  • How long after being on PIO and estrace and patches should I get AF? It's only been 3 days. It will come, right? AF would have normally come this past Monday but I was still on medicine and I did get a tiny little of spotting but that was it. I'm assuming it will come soon, right?
  • From what I've read on other posts several days is normal.
  • Still waiting... Patiently. :)
  • It took me 4 days but my nurse said up to 10!

  • Thanks @mclorn ... Guess I need to be patient
  • Night 3: we are getting better with the injections! And we're holding onto the needles now lol
    nauseous tonight and thirsty

    I do Menopur first because it gives me the most anxiety, just want to get it over with. The Follistim is a price of cake aftrerwards! Although, the Menopur is getting easier!

    I have small, round bruise dots at the injection sites; I said to DH I'm gonna play connect the dots soon lol


    @Joyzie77 praying AF comes soon for you!!

  • Morning 4:
    I have 8 follicles. Kinda bummed about it; it's a good number, but it's not a great number. I know all I need is 1, but I worry about fertilization.

    Still a lot of growing to do (2 at 8, 2 at 7 and 4 at 5) My doctor started me on a low dose of meds so he may increase me tonight, we shall see.

    Hope you all are enjoying your pregnancy!

  • @Colleen0516 hang in there lady! As long as they are growing you are doing well. :) I know it isn't the number you were hoping for but the numbers went up and down for me depending on how long the various Drs searched for follies. It's definitely a quality over quantity game to a large extent. Hope they grow grow grow!!

    Colleen0516  8 is GREAT on day 3! Don't forget my story... I only had 6, 5 fertilized and 3 made it to blasts so really... you have a great possibility! Just stay hopeful, because you have a lot of time left to stim. Prayers up for you and grow follies grow!

    @Colleen0516  So happy to hear you started your cycle!  I know it's hard not to get caught up in the numbers, but try not to stress yourself out too much!  It really is quality over quantity. The good news is with 8 eggs, you hopefully won't have too bad of a case of OHSS and your body won't be as stressed when it's time for the embryo transfer.

    @Joyzie77  I hope AF shows up soon!  This next transfer is going to be the one!

  • Hi girls! Quick question, I know I'm probably worrying about nothing, but I'm about 6 weeks now and still haven't had many symptoms at all. A little bloating and slightly sore boobs, but that's about it. Should I have more symptoms by now? First scan is in about a week, but it just can't come fast enough.
  • @joyzie77  Woohoo!!!
    @runmeg91 consider yourself lucky!  Everyone is different.  Some people have no symptoms except a growing belly the whole pregnancy; others puke the whole 9 months.

  • I wouldn't worry  about symptoms.  As Mclorn said, every woman's body will react differently.  Both of my sisters are pregnant.  One has terrible symptoms (all day nausea, anemia, headaches, fatigue, etc) and the other doesn't feel anything.  Plus, I think it's still a little early for us.  I've read that many women don't experience anything until they're 8 weeks along. @runmeg91

    I have my first ultrasound on Friday!  I'm hoping our little one has a strong heartbeat.   

    @shaylatrice  I just noticed you have your fur baby listed in your signature.  So cute!  I love my little ball of fluff so much.

    ShayLatrice Yes, it does feel a bit like I am leaving the nest... But I plan to stick around for all the girls and the ones about to join us :) ... It is very nerve racking, it's like the big girl panties appointment times from here on out... we will be monitored closely still because its twins but it is nothing like every day sometimes twice a day.    :-SS
