Third-Party Reproduction

Check in for those cycling and newly PG

I know we had a thread about letting this board serve as the DE/DS/Dembryo check in but now I feel like I don't know what everyone's update is

So...informally,

Where are you in your DE/DS/Dembryo cycle or update us on your news if you are a recent success.

    Stinkerbell?are you going to POAS?

     My update: Blood work tomorrow to check my levels, ET is in two weeks!

    Yup. Rather have some idea and not be blindsided. But still feels early! My Beta is 9dp3dt, and I have seen some ladies not get a bfp until 11-12dpt. BUT. The lab slip they gave me is for 2 betas the 27th and then 29th, so it should be fine.

    Good luck with you blood work! and before you know it your ET will be here! :-)

  • I had a DE ET on 4/14. My first beta on 4/23 was 164 my second on 4/25 was 429. I am so happy but yet so many hurdles still to come!
  • udc22udc22 member

    I am currently on Estrace, Vivelle Patch, and Lupron.  I go in tomorrow for BW and hopefully get an update on the donor.  Once she starts to stim, I will start on progesterone in oil shots.  This will be my first time on these shots, so I am hoping that they don't hurt.  DH will be giving them to me.

    ET is scheduled for Cinco de Mayo--no partying for me! 

      

    TTC since 10/2010
    IVF #1 - BFN
    IVF #2 - BFP, MC @ 4 weeks
    IVF #3 - ET ~ 3/18/2013
