Nervous...monitoring appt #3 tomorrow

I go in tomorrow morning for my 3rd monitoring and hopefully to find out when the retrieval will be. I am getting very nervous. Not for any reason other than we are getting so close and I am hoping we haven't gone through all of this for nothing.

I also found out last night that my little sister is pregnant - I tried, but couldn't hold back the tears. I just really want it to be my turn!!

Re: Nervous...monitoring appt #3 tomorrow

  • i imagine everyone would be nervous the closer they get!  i know i am not even starting stims until friday and am already nervous about each next step.  wishing you calmness and peace for the rest of the day.  

    regarding your sister's news, i would imagine anyone would feel the same way.  it's not that you aren't happy, but that question of when will it be my turn keeps coming to the front of our heads.  i'm sorry that you have to go through this, as i am for each one of us that pregnancy does not come easy to.  lots of luck at your monitoring appointment and keep us posted when you are done.

  • I am feeling pretty good. My lower back has been achy all week and I've had some discomfort but nothing too horrible. Maybe that's why I am so nervous, I don't feel different enough. I had 5 measurable follicles on Friday (up from 3 on Wednesday) and I've been told I have small ovaries so I may not have a ton.

    Starting IVF #2 for Feb 2013
    Follistim/Menopur/Ganirelix

    Testing found positive cardiolipins/APS, now on lovenox and intralipid infusions
    Transfer of 2 5-day blasts and (FINALLY) BFFP!! 1st ultrasound shows two sacs and two HB, but one is sluggish, almost expecting vanishing twin Subsequent ultrasound confirmed vanishing twin, but my other Little critter looks fantastic!

    I was worried during stims too, I was expecting to feel bloated a lot earlier.  The only pain/discomfort that I had was at the actual injection sites.  I really didn't feel any  changes until right before I did my trigger shot so try not to worry too much! :)  I hope you get good news at the appointment!
