  • @cokiebear  Good luck with your transfer and happy birthday.  Hopefully, your birthday will bring you luck.  I had my ER on my birthday and ended out with more retrieved and fertilized than IVF#1.
    Me 27 DH 29 Married since 2007, together since 2001
    Off BC since Febuary 2006 3 Clomid Cycles in 2008- symptomatic, US just showed a tilted uterus, otherwise normal, HSG normal.  DH has an ejaculatory duct obstruction and a congenital absence of the vas deferens.  This is common with cystic fibrosis carriers, but he doesn't have cystic fibrosis. IVF #1 with TESE/ICSI (Antagonist protocol) Aug 2014=BFN (poor embryo quality)   IVF #2 ICSI long lupron protocol November 2014

    AngM123 maybe they didn't take blood because they will do it tomorrow, and check if the increase in the follitism worked.. FX for you!! But don't worry, I guess It is normal to have this changes during the course of your cycle, they are still learning how your body reacts to the medication.

    Did my trigger at 8pm last night. ER is tomorrow morning. I have to be at their main office at 615am. Which means I'll be leaving sometime in the 4am hour. Ugh. So ready for this! It was my first day without a shot and it felt so nice. Doctor also asked me if wanted to be in his trial group for EEVA. Anyone else use that? Its for early embryo viability assessment. It takes a picture of your embryos at different stages. It's free so I'm thinking of trying it. Apps I use.... Fantasy Football ( both yahoo and espn), stocks, gmail, Facebook, Instagram and Google
    I did the EEVA study.  It's pretty cool.  We got a video of the embryo cells dividing.  I got randomly put in the 3dt group and we transferred a perfect 8 cell embryo.  Are you at B*W*H?  Good luck!
