Re: December FET Buddies

  • I'm only transferring one at a  time. we have 3 frozen, but I don't wanna risk transferring more than one. I have twins in my family and I feel like if I transfer 2 I might end up with 4 babies. LOLOL

  • Loading the player...
  • Since all 3 of our embryos are only good to fair condition we will thaw all 3 and transfer all that make it! My RE is confident that 2 will survive the thaw. I would be thrilled with twins! LOL  
  • I did my first PIO this morning... it didn't hurt going in... but it is a lil sore now and I have a lil knot under the injection site. I warmed the PIO using the heating pad while I iced my butt and then I basically just stabbed myself... I just kept thinking people using steroids do this all the time... I can do this. LOL...

    @halips... LOLOLOLOL at Hell Yeah! Don't start me with the giggles again today. LOL. Yes buddy, you are going to be able to rock this out, I have  no doubt!!! Something about doing it myself is less frightening than DH doing it, but I think it is because I'm a control freak... and considering how DH looked when he came in the bathroom this morning as I was uncapping the needle and then after I stabbed myself... I don't think he would be much help. He looked like he was going to throw up... LOL.

  • @Joyzie77 That's awesome!!
  • How are the PIO shots coming along? Not so bad, I hope?!
  • Day 2 PIO shot in the books... and they aren't that bad, but I definitely don't like them... and it is like I keep thinking about how many of these I still have to do. @halips did her first one today... I'm hoping it went smooth for her. This one is just so much more of a process, having to ice my butt first, warm the PIO and then heating pad on my butt after the shot... the first shot bruised...which is like eww.

    That makes me wonder, are you sure you are doing it in the right place? I know a girl that had horrible reactions because she was injecting in the wrong spot. I was told to envision a + on your cheek and that it should go in the upper right quadrant for the right cheek and upper left for the left cheek.

  • Yeah, I have a small cup that I use to mark the spots on my butt, the one I did today didn't bruise but the one yesterday did. RE told me it could happen, but I bruise pretty fast in most cases anyways and then with me being on baby aspirin I kinda expected it.

  • Ok, awesome! Just wanted to double check that. I bruise easy too and am on baby aspirin. Hope they get better for you!
  • I appreciate you checking because I could've very well been shooting in the wrong spot. I feel like this lil space isn't going to be big enough for all these injections... ugh.

  • No problem! I know what you mean.  My nurse said they can be done on the thigh too. If my DH chickens out, I might have to do them there myself.
  • I may have to use my thighs when I need to give my butt a break!

  • First PIO shot done! DH was a champ! He told me he watched a ton of videos at work today (which concerns me since he's an electrician and drives from job to job all day, not sure WHEN he had time for this...). He started lecturing me on proper needle use and alcohol swabbing, getting air bubbles out etc. I was all "Bruh-I've been giving myself shots for 6 months now, I got this." I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT! Ice is magic stuff! He drew circles on my bum to make himself more comfortable with jabbing me, but other than that, it was easy breezy. I slightly worry that we didn't get the exact right spot because it was so easy. I have a tiny knot there now, but no pain or anything yet. I was half tempted to look at the bottle of PIO and taunt it "bring it on", but I refrained.  

    Can you tell I'm excited?! How was everyone else's day?

  • 13 was awesome! We ended up with 6 mature and 4 that grew to 5 day. We had all 4 frozen in order to do PGS. One embryo is euploid (chromosomally normal) and it is a girl. They'll prep my uterus for an early 2016 transfer!
  • Congrats on having 4 freezies and prepping for 2016. May the new year bring you a bundle of joy!

  • I really wanted to join you ladies, but my RE told me today he'd prefer for me to wait until January... I am still lurking here and have started a new January FET Buddies thread using the same style that @ShayLatrice started.  It's such a great idea to have our own thread for FETs!  

    Keeping my fingers crossed for all you ladies getting ready for your transfers!  This coming week will be exciting for sure for you all!
  • I hope the new year brings you a new member in your family!!! I'll be lurking in thw Jan FET to see updates!

  • Good morning! I missed so much the past weekend! So glad PIO doesn't seem that bad! I am super excited for my US and BW on Wednesday. Fingers crossed that the lining looks good and we can schedule the FET for 12/15. 8 more days!

    @ShayLatrice I am so super excited for your transfer tomorrow! :)

    @halips Are you ready?! Probably more than ready, right?!

    @Colleen0516 So excited that yours is this week too! How awesome!

    I will be praying, crossing fingers, and wishing baby dust your way ladies!

  • Thanks!! I'm just sitting here waiting on RE to call me and tell me what time I'm coming in tomorrow. PIO isn't that bad, my butt  muscles are sore a little bit. I can feel the knots in my butt from the oil I guess?...hubby forgot that I was doing the shots and when I walked past him after my shower last night he smacked my butt... and then I gave him the look of death...
