    The extreme exhaustion and terrible nausea hit me yesterday like a Mack truck!! I called my RE and asked for Zofran but the nurse said she won't give it because it's a category B! WTH?? So she called me in a new med that is specifically for morning sickness and it's a category A called Diclegis. It's extended release and you take it at night. So far it seems to be working, I'm hoping it continues to work! As much as the nausea sucks, it's reassuring.

    I "loved it" not because I love that you have nausea but for what it means. :) I was wondering if they did anti nausea medication for morning sickness. Is that something you will be able to take for a while?


    Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

    July 2006: started TTC
    2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno

    Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
    January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
    February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
    March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary

    July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy

    May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
    June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
    IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
    September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
    October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
    November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5

    November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year

    Congrats @Alicia_R1 on your BFP!!! 

    I'm so excited for all these BFPs on Cycle 1 of IVF. Gives me hope!! FX for everyone, during beta and eventually U/S.

    @jszy10 - Welcome to PUPO-land!! There seem to be a bunch of us with betas on Aug 11th (mine is as well) :) And Happy Birthday!!!<:-P  I hope you are doing something relaxing and special.

    I'm so behind! I'll have maybe just had ER by the time you all are doing betas. :) I'm assuming beta for me will be near the end of August... Omg that's so far away LOL. The BFPs are giving me hope too... It's sort of funny how this whole group for the most part is all first time fresh IVF cycles.

    @jszy10‌ Thank you!

    I can't believe I'm typing this but I still have NOT POAS! It will be a miracle if I can wait until tomorrow. Beta is at 8am but won't hear results until after 3pm. I think I might need to walk around IKEA tomorrow.

    @baby_blessings‌ So, have you held out or did you POAS? It's a big day for both of us tomorrow. Sending happy thoughts your way!

    Wow @KRSimmons3‌ that's great!!!! That does seem soon but exciting! Heehe

    Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

    July 2006: started TTC
    2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
    2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
    October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
    Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
    January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
    February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
    March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary

    July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
    August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

    IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
    IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
    IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
    IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
    IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN

    May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
    IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis

    May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
    June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
    IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
    September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
    October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
    November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5

    November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
    December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
    December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)

    IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

    We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(

    I just got my report from the embryologist in the mail today along with the picture of my embryos. The day of transfer I never asked how they looked because I was so anxious and just happy that 2 even made it. Anyway, I had a 2dt and it says I had 1 @ 1 cell (in the process of cleaving 1 into 2 cells) with about 10% fragmentation and 1 @ 2-3 cells with about 40% fragmentation. Not sure how I feel about this...
