Re: ~*~June Bug Check In~*~
I have another monitoring appointment tomorrow afternoon and will hopefully trigger tomorrow night!
QOTD: I would first pay bills off, remodel our house to sell, build our dream house, give a set amount to each of our parents/siblings, and put the rest back in savings. We are not the type to go spend it on things we want but don't need, we are very much practical about that sort of thing, athough a new truck and wardrobe would be nice!

Congratulations Ducky719 and Good luck loveskatespade !!
Tomorrow is ER day and I am so ready! Been feeling heavy and slightly bloated. Triggered last night at work in the restroom. Nothing like feeling like a junky as I'm holed up in a stall, trying to assemble everything on top of the toilet paper holder! Today I'm hanging out while MH works from home (aka coffee shop) and am going enjoy my only night shot free - woo hoo!
QOTD- first I'd have to get a few hundreds just to toss in the air and shower myself with like they do in the movies (which I'd pick back up and put in my purse). Then I'd splurge on an exotic vacation so MH and I can make all our big plans. Maybe buy a house in SF share with the families, some for charity, and the rest for investing.
I went in yesterday morning for my first monitoring appointment, everything went well and I have about 20 small follies visable. My call back yesterday had me keeping all meds the same and back in this morning. They were able to mesurable about 8 follies! So far, we are doing much better this time around! I'm still waiting on my call back but the PA told me on my way out I should expect to be in every morning from here on out! So far I'm feeling much better about this cycle!
QOTD: If I won the lottery I would pay off my student loans, the house, get a new car and help out my family. And take a trip somewhere.
So happy that things are looking good for you this time around!

Bwahaha! Meee to! First things first.
Then I would go on an around-the-world adventure, and buy properties along the way in places I loved so we could just travel around and spend time in different places all over the globe. I'd give a chunk of cash to my siblings and parents, and save the rest to live out my days on. There would definitely be some charitable giving, but I don't know to what causes. Maybe start our own foundation to fund IF treatments for OOP people.
Update: I am PUPO! We transferred 2 8AG embies today, the best quality possible. We are so excited!
Dx DOR (AMH .49), Stage 3/4 Endo, Septate Uterus
After 2 years, numerous tests, abdonimal surgery, and 2 IVF cycles, we are so grateful to be expecting.
Transferred 2 "perfect" 8-cell embies 6/12. Beta 1 6/25: 472! Beta 2 6/27: 1055!
First u/s shows TRIPLETS! WHAT?!?! Both embies stuck and one split. OMG
Levi, Henry, and Amelia were born healthy at 34w3d.
Triggering tonight, ER on THursday!
QOTD: Pay off the house. If it was a big lotto, maybe just fix up the house to get a good price and buy another one, but we just got this one! Then invest the rest and live off the dividends. I don't know if I could quit my job, I might be too bored. But if it was a lot of money, I could start some kind of foundation and THAT could be my job.
Same here! Shooting up at work was definitely interesting... luckily we have lots of sharps containers around, lol. I was really busy last night and was so paranoid I wouldn't be able to give them at the exact right time but I did:)
ER is at 9am tomorrow. I am supposed to work overnights again tonight but I am hoping to get called off. I am ready but also really nervous!!!
QOTD: Pay off all our IVF bills, build a new house, help out family members
I did this same thing this morning in the bathroom lobby of the building that my RE is in. Felt dirty and silly as I took everything out of my little ziplock bag that I prepared. Luckily I had a larger than average lady-pad-stainless-steel-mail-box-thing to set everything on (after I wiped it down with an alcohol pad).

Everybody is welcome!!!
Impatiently waiting for beta #1. I am starting to get hot flashes - I hope these are good sign!
QOTD - I have thought about this so many times and really excite myself into thinking I could really win. I would love to pay off all my and my family's debt, buy a house with my hubby, purchase a few investment properties that I could manage as a full time job, and I would like to donate some money...I would help couples struggling with IF to help fund their IVF...Hopefully we are talking about a large jackpot!!!

Trying to mentally prepare for my ER tomorrow.
QOTD: If you won the lottery, what would you do with your winnings?
pay off all our debt, sell our house, have a dream house built and travel as much as possible!
On Saturday night, I had concert tickets for my regular medicine time. Since I had to leave home a long time before then, I brought my meds with me and shot up in the car. I decided with mixing 5 vials into each shot that night, I wasn't coordinated enough to do it in the bathroom. I just kept looking around guiltily and tried to time it with when people weren't walking by!
Started stims tonight! I never imagined being so excited to get home for injections. And then it was quite nerve wracking, as I realized I didn't really remember the process. But all went well, and I am officially stimming!
QOTD: Definitely pay down debt, but a bigger condo, invest money to live off for the rest of my life, and take all my family / friends on a kick ass vacation. Ah, to dream...
All Welcome!
Unmedicated IUI: 9/11 BFN
1st IVF: January 2012. BCP, Lupron, Menopur, Gonal-F

BCP, Ganirelix, Menopur, Gonal-F
18 eggs retrieved (6/25), 12 mature, 6 fertilized
BFP! Singleton due 3/18/13!
I go for an u/s & bloods on Friday. My FET will be scheduled SOON!!!!! I am starting to get excited!
QOTD: If you won the lottery, what would you do with your winnings?
I would travel, help my parents and sister out, and do something with animals (probably focus on pit bull rescues). Ahhhh to dream.
::Waving Hello June Bugs!!::
Update: still stimming along here....I went today for a monioring appt and they upped my meds tonight. I am injecting gonal f, menopur and ganirelix each night and gonal f in the mornings. I go back for another monitoring appt on Thursday morning. I am guesstimating my ER to be on my birthday, Monday June 18th. We will see!
Funny that the QOTD is about lottery winnings.....my DH and I were just talking about what we would do if we did in fact win lots o' money. We would buy a nice, reasonable house, pay down debt, upgrade our cars, share with family, and put the rest away for the rest of our lives. We would still work, and keep our lifestyle the same. Oh, and def take more vacations other than going home to visit family. ha!
