  • Started meds last night, so we are on our way!  My next apt. is on Friday morning.  I'm on 300 Gonal F and 150 Menopur right now. 

    I'm hoping I won't have to go back on Sat, because I really want to go home and see DH for the weekend-he broke his foot yesterday! (I'm staying with my parents during monitoring bc the clinic is 4 hours away from where DH and I live, but only 20 from Mom and Dad.)

     Qotd:  I don't know much about cars- I would much rather have a private jet always ready to go on a little vacation!

  • Still waiting for this cycle to be over so I can get started (unless I get another nice surprise).  I go for my luteal phase endometrial biopsy next week and I added synthroid to my treatment plan as my TSH was at 2.8 - not high, but high enough to treat.  We'll see if it makes a difference!

    Good Luck to all of you getting started this week.  And ((hugs)) to those of you dealing with the wonderful side effects already.

    QOTD: I also am not super into cars, but I would like an M3 Convertible.  DH just got his dream car this winter, so I'm happy enough to ride along as a passenger in it.

Me and DH have to go through and sign everything and send it back. As for my FET just found out it will be starting BCP July 8th and then beginning aug I begin shots and monitoring and a sept 3rd transfer. My dream car has always been a Porsche!!

    Room for one more?? Provided all goes well with my hysteroscopy on Tuesday I will have FET 2 in July! We will be doing Assisted Hatching this time and most likely transferring 2 of our day 3 embies. There has been talk of letting us transfer 3 this time, but I really don't know if I could do that. Anyway, its nice to see some familiar faces here, but I wish I didn't, and hello and GL to all the ladies cycling for the first time :] QOTD: I'm not terribly into cars, but I would love a new one. I've never had a brand new car, only used, so just the idea of a new car is wonderful, lol!

    FX for a successful hysteroscopy!

    I'm happy and not so happy to see you!

    Hi all! I'm on day 7 of Lupron. I am having horrible headaches from it, I had headaches the last two cycles, but not as bad as these ones. I actually went to bed at 9 last night because I couldn't take it anymore. Baseline on wed. Then start stims next Saturday! Can't wait! QOTD: I'm really not into cars but I would get the truck my father in law has, but all decked out lol.

    I'm sorry that you're having trouble with the lupron. No fun. You're almost there though!

    Started meds last night, so we are on our way!  My next apt. is on Friday morning.  I'm on 300 Gonal F and 150 Menopur right now. 

    I'm hoping I won't have to go back on Sat, because I really want to go home and see DH for the weekend-he broke his foot yesterday! (I'm staying with my parents during monitoring bc the clinic is 4 hours away from where DH and I live, but only 20 from Mom and Dad.)

     Qotd:  I don't know much about cars- I would much rather have a private jet always ready to go on a little vacation!

    FX you get to see DH this weekend!

    Private jet sounds like a much better idea! Smile

    Received some paperwork in the mail.  Apparently my protocol is called Lupron Microflare.  I am using micro dose Lupron because last IUI Lupron suppressed me too much.  I'm worried this won't work as the original plan was to use Ganirelix.  Apparently 2 REs in the practice had a meeting and deciding micro dose Lupron is the better route.

    QOTD:  This might sound really lazy, but right now  a limo and a driver would be great! :)

    I'm not personally familiar with the microflare protocal but have definitely known several bumpies who have found success with it. GL!

    A driver sounds amazing!

    Still waiting for this cycle to be over so I can get started (unless I get another nice surprise).  I go for my luteal phase endometrial biopsy next week and I added synthroid to my treatment plan as my TSH was at 2.8 - not high, but high enough to treat.  We'll see if it makes a difference!

    Good Luck to all of you getting started this week.  And ((hugs)) to those of you dealing with the wonderful side effects already.

    QOTD: I also am not super into cars, but I would like an M3 Convertible.  DH just got his dream car this winter, so I'm happy enough to ride along as a passenger in it.

    FX that you don't get any more surprises!

  • I am officially a go I started Lupron last night and it was way easier than I anticipated!!! I am a bit nervous about side effects since I was miserable on Clomid so I am massively hydrating and keeping my fingers crossed I am one of the lucky people that tolerate it well.

    I actually really love my CRV that I got in April. A convertible would be fun but I'd miss the ability to tote around my bike, plus I don't think it would be so fun most of the year here. So I'm going to twist the question to be all modes of transportation and say I would love to take flying lessons and have my own plane!

  • Looks like I will be joining July Fireflies. We had our d and c last Wednesday and my RE called yesterday to tell me to test tomorrow and if it's negative I will start taking estrace for our FET. I don't realize we would be moving on so soon but I am excited.

    My dream car would be a luxury suv. I drive a 2013 Highlander and I guess that's as close as I am ever going to get.
