@LSatturo126 Congratulations!! That's exciting. Just my opinion, but I would NOT say anything about it until you are actually offered the job!! Until then, it's none of their business and don't stress about it! Once they offer you the job, it'll be different. Then you can say that you need these days off for a previously planned procedure or whatever you want to say! Good luck.

@wenikilina no I totally agree I know that people when they are hired and have vacation days that have already been booked like should I just say vacation? Problem is if she asks I won't have specific dates... Damn cycle

I would tell them that it is a medical procedure not vacation (you can usually use sick leave and annual leave for doctors appointments) but the dates have yet to be determined and leave it at that. Good luck with the interview!!

@LSatturo126 I still think I would say procedure, as it seems more likely they would be okay with it rather than a vacation with unknown dates. And again, I wouldn't say anything unless offered the job.

@twomommiestobe yessssss! I'll say that if they ask for sure! It does sound so minor I love it! The interview went really well and they have two more days of interviews. They said they would call any possible candidates back for a last interview next week. Crossing fingers!! Wasn't someone getting a US today?

I hope you get a call back @LSatturo126 My next ultrasound is on Friday. I can't wait. I feel ok overall. A little uncomfortable at times and not true nausea/morning sickness but in the afternoon at times I feel just blah and yucky..I think it's my mild version of morning sickness and since I HATE vomiting it's good that I am not feeling that at least not yet
@LSatturo126 remind me, when are you stimming and doing your next retrieval? How many rounds are you doing? Is there a transfer date set? I'm just so excited for you and can wait!!!

@twomommiestobe aww you're so sweet! Um well the one embryo is being genetically tested which should be completed sometime next week. If the embryo is good they will freeze it. I'm starting to get cramps so I'm assuming I'll be getting AF this weekend and I'll be starting new meds and method because my doctor wants to try another way. Not sure what meds yet until tomorrow but apparently it's a shot in the morning and my other shots at night. I thinking someone had that method but can't remember. Retrieval should be by last week of April. Then we will have to wait to see which ones make it to day five and then genetic testing. If I have any by the end I will transfer that. Most likely June I guess. You will all be getting finished with your second trimester lol

Ultrasound went great. Baby is measuring right where it should. Heartbeat of 149. Even saw spinal fluid forming around the brain. I go back next Monday the 18.
My doctor just called starting a different protocol.
20 units Lupron in the morning, 20 units HCG, 450 units Gonal F and 20 units of Lupron again. Anyone ever do similar?

It's so great seeing everyone progressing with plans and pregnancies. Yay for all the good news! I feel so frustrated that we can't get into the RE until July, but I know that once we start with meds and whatever plan we end up with, it will all be worth it!
me 30; DH 35 TTC since May 2014. Aug 2014 BFP, EDD April 22, 2015. Low progesterone, started suppositories. Loss at 5w6d. Nov 19, 2015 BFP at 13 dpo, EDD July 29, 2016. MMC discovered 12/29 (9+4). Natural miscarriage 1/16 (12+1). AMH results 0.42, 1.2; FSH 12.1, AFC 10, dx DOR. RPL testing results normal. Nurse recommended progesterone suppositories in TWW. Clomid + trigger + TI cycle August 2016 - failed. Thin lining. Femara + trigger + TI cycle December 2016 - failed. Thin lining. Short LP (8 days). Acupuncture & Chinese herbs starting January 2017, lengthened LP to 10 days
So I got AF Saturday and have started my new meds. Looks like a retrieval next weekend the 23rd. We shall see.

@LSatturo126 That's awesome!! That seemed really quick to me. Time for more progress! @AL_TwinCities I can see how that would be frustrating. I always disliked the waiting periods! It felt like a waste of time. But, as you said, just know that it will all be worth it.

Good luck @LSatturo126 hoping you get lots of eggs this time @AL_TwinCities that is annoying...I would focus on getting in good health and maybe taking some supplements nad never hurts to try on your own in the meantime @wenikilina and @twomommiestobe aside from morning sickness what other symptoms haveyou had at all so far? and do you remember when? I had some nausea last week but feeling pretty good this weekend. Which of course makes me super nervous. I have cramps here and there but nothing horrible and I def have some extra (Sorry TMI) discharge that is whitish maybe a little yellow. And tired..that's about it..so of course I am scared something is wrong even though I also know after seeing the heartbeat the chance of miscarriage goes down to like 4% which is reassuring but having had a miscarriage I am scared to let my guard down (although iwth that one I had not been to a dr yet so no idea if my betas were strong or not or what)
@capps42613 looking forward to your US today! Good luck!

1 embryo & heartbeat detected. Measuring right on target at 6 wks + 3 days. Due 12/6/16. RE did see a 2nd sac, but it was empty. Which means they probably both implanted but 1 stopped growing. Super thankful for putting both back! Oh, and I get to stop PIO May 1st!!
@capps42613 yeah! Congrats! Now you can be at rest knowing you SEE him/her now. So happy for you!

Hey all, how is everyone doing? I am going crazy waiting for this appointment. Started my new diet this week and generally feel great, except I'm hungry far more often. I might need to eat more frequently since I'm mostly focusing on veggies, fruits and fish or meat. Hope everyone is well!

@AL_TwinCities I am still quite sick with this morning sickness. I just cannot believe that it continues to get worse. I do have days when I don't throw up. But I am constantly nauseous. More days lately, I do throw up, and it's anywhere from one to three times a day. I was prescribed a new med to try (for the third time) but so far nothing seems to help! I just hope I'm not like this for the entire pregnancy. I feel useless! Tomorrow is my second appt at my OB/GYN office where we will talk about all of the second trimester testing! Exciting. How is the new diet coming along? @twomommiestobe Have you decided what testing you'll do?

I would tell them that it is a medical procedure not vacation (you can usually use sick leave and annual leave for doctors appointments) but the dates have yet to be determined and leave it at that. Good luck with the interview!!

My next ultrasound is on Friday. I can't wait. I feel ok overall. A little uncomfortable at times and not true nausea/morning sickness but in the afternoon at times I feel just blah and yucky..I think it's my mild version of morning sickness and since I HATE vomiting it's good that I am not feeling that at least not yet

@AL_TwinCities I can see how that would be frustrating. I always disliked the waiting periods! It felt like a waste of time. But, as you said, just know that it will all be worth it.

@AL_TwinCities that is annoying...I would focus on getting in good health and maybe taking some supplements nad never hurts to try on your own in the meantime
@wenikilina and @twomommiestobe aside from morning sickness what other symptoms haveyou had at all so far? and do you remember when? I had some nausea last week but feeling pretty good this weekend. Which of course makes me super nervous. I have cramps here and there but nothing horrible and I def have some extra (Sorry TMI) discharge that is whitish maybe a little yellow. And tired..that's about it..so of course I am scared something is wrong even though I also know after seeing the heartbeat the chance of miscarriage goes down to like 4% which is reassuring but having had a miscarriage I am scared to let my guard down (although iwth that one I had not been to a dr yet so no idea if my betas were strong or not or what)
