sweet! I paged you earlier down below, so we're thinking of each other on the same day. I start my Follistim tonight - alternating 50/75iu until next Wednesday for blood test. I think it's Estradiol? Then follie checks starting Friday. I'm on a sloooooooooow protocol because I would totally overstim on injects if I was on a normal dosage. I have tons of follicles in there just waiting to grow. With the twins I stimmed for 29 days. I'm in it for the long haul!
How do you feel about having multiples again? Are you as terrified as I am that your body will give out? My RE said that my chances are 25-35% of multis but my OB does NOT want me to have twins or more due to the IC. I would personally never ever reduce, but I'm terrified to lose another set of babies... I'm strongly (as in, almost 100%) considering getting a transabdominal cerclage (TAC) vs. a vaginal cerclage. It's permanent but rock solid. So many damn decisions!!!!!
Keep me posted about your progress! I'm totally obsessed with follicle growth THere's something about seeing it, knowing it was the one that turned into a baby. Soo cool.
Twin boys born too early at 17w4d and 18w2d in February 2010
Transabdominal cerclage placed September 2010
DS born at 35w1d in February 2011
Twin girls born at exactly 36w in February 2013
29 days holy crap.. I think I stimmed for 12.. but than again I got triplets and lost all of them.
My RE was really pushing me to do IVF as they were dearful of me having multiples again. I decided I wanted to do injections again as we had a good response to it. But scared to have multiples again. I always wanted twins and will be excited ( and maybe disapointed) if I get pregnant with a singleton as I got my self ready for 2 scremaing mouths to feed..lol.
I talked to my doc about getting the Vaginal Cerclage, what they want to do is check me everyy week and if my cervix is shorting than we will put it in.
I'm excited to hear about your progress too. And it's good to have someone who is going thru the same thing you are at the same time.
