Pregnant after IF

first day without meds... happy yet so anxious.

As much as I am glad to know that my RE says I can be done with my twice daily PIO and E2...     I hate today.    I just hate these first few days off of meds.   They require so much trust in my body - which I just don't have!   

I know lots of people go off PIO at 8-9 weeks (I dropped to .5mL at 8 weeks with DD, stopping all together at 9 weeks - which means I've already been on a whole lot more meds this time than last time), so I keep trying to tell myself it'll be ok...   but with the different medication protocol this time, I am just so nervous.   Hoping this week goes by quickly and my OB appointment next week will prove that everything is ok...     bah!

Because we're fancy like that.

  • Good luck! I stopped my meds last night too, so I can understand your fear.

    FWIW, my RE went through IVF and stopped PIO at 9 weeks. That made me feel better that is she was ok in stopping, it must be ok.
