Re: --- LATE 2IF Weekly Check-in (September 9) ---

  • Status: 5dp IUI. Not feeling optimistic at all about this one. I was doing daily BW and they never saw an LH surge but then my Estrogen started to drop. So they had me trigger at 3pm and go in for IUI the next day at 11am.

    QOTW: FOOTBALL!!!!! I love watching Notre Dame and Patriots!!! :)

    Status: Waiting for cycle day1 so I can get the ball rolling on our first IUI (hopefully). I say hopefully, because RE wants to make sure the thyroid meds are doing their job first, and wants me to do an HSG. If we have to wait yet another cycle, I might just scream my head off right there in her office! So.... FX! ;)

    QOTW: Fall is my favorite season. I'm looking forward to apple and pumpkin picking with DS, my annual murder mystery birthday party in November, the Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck in October, and baking cinnamony, pumpkiny, and appley things to my heart's content! And of course Halloween!!!

    QOTW:  Halloween is my wedding anniversary so that is always a fun day.  It is also my DH and DS birthdays.  I love all the farms, apple-picking, cider (cider donuts, too!) and decorating my porch with all the cute pumpkins and scarecrows I bought last year.  We moved into a house from our NYC apartment last year so the decoration stuff is a lot of fun for me.  I actually like the crisp weather, too... but only light-jacket crisp..

    Good luck ladies!!!  I hope everyone is doing well and staying optimistic in their cycles!

  • @ellbelle2384, congrats on the new job!  How do you like it so far?

    Nothing much here.  I've started lupron in preparation for the FET, but don't have a monitoring apt until the 18th.

    QOTW: fall has honestly never been my favorite season.  It just reminds me that summer's over and winter's coming.  I'm excited about celebrating halloween with DD, though.  She wants to be a monkey.

  • Good Luck to everyone!

    Status: I had a set back last week where my Estrogen wasn't as low as they wanted. So, I had to take extra Lupron for a few more days. I went back yesterday and they liked the progress; so they allowed me to start the minivelle patches and baby aspirin and lower my Lupron amount. Now my FET is the 28th if all goes as planned here on out. 

    QOTW: I love the Fall! I love the weather, and pumpkin/apple picking. I love Halloween. I love the huge fair that comes to town. And my birthday is in October. :-)

    Good luck to those cycling!!

    I just finished with my IVf and we retrieved 19 follicles but only 1 fertilized and we froze it on day 1. We have named it the "The Lone Ranger". Apparently my eggs were very weird and odd and had some flat spots and other things odd. I think the doctor on the phone said that he had only seen this once before. I am not 100% sure as I was in shock of only having one fertilizing and shaking. We will be cycling again in November and we will be dipping into our retirement to do it. We will definitely be doing 100% ICSI next time due to the horrible fertilization rate and an increase in the drugs hoping to stim faster, as this time I stimmed for 11 days and he thinks it could affected the eggs. I have my official cycle review Oct 1st and will probably start BCPs around then to start the stims around Halloween.

    QoTW: I am looking forward to cycling again. I want to get this going so hopefully I can get better results!

  • @ellebelle2384 CONGRATS ON THE NEW JOB!!!!!!!!!!  How are things going?

    Cycle Status:  IVF #2 was unsuccessful.  My follow up appt with my doctor isn't until 9/28.  I keep calling it my "exit interview" because we all agreed this was the end of the road for us.  I'm assuming we're just going to say goodbye unless he wants to go at the scar one more time.  I would be willing to go through another c-section scar surgery but no more fertility treatments.

    I've spent this week crying, moping, trying to do grad school home work, and calling adoption agencies.  We've narrowed it down to 3 agencies and will be pursing adoption from here on out.  So for now I'll still be a member of this board but I think my TTC days are done...will keep everyone posted :)

    QOTW:  I'm excited for skinny jeans and high boots!!!  *If I can ever fit into my skinny jeans ever again*
