APRIL FET

Re: APRIL FET

  • @laurengon82 It says on my bottle it’s says if you feel sick while taking the meds to take with food. Hopefully you just need a lil something in your tummy before you take them.
  • @ndz2018 thanks!  I’ll try with food next time!  
  • Loading the player...
  • @laurengon82 - ugh, the nausea is the worst. I actually haven't had nausea with anything really, except my prenatal vitamins.

    Funnily enough, I finally bought the slightly more expensive prenatal vitamin gummies so I wouldn't have the same nausea. And now my husband keeps eating them! They're not even that good, but as he says: "They're the closest thing to candy we have in the house." 



  • I have been so MIA...just caught up on the chats...so ma y of you guys already have date...I feel so disconnected because I might be the only one doing a natural cycle...so doing daily monitoring now...today's estrogen went up...might be soon for ovulation....until then I don't know my date
  • Bump keeps deleting half of my post
  • Spreadsheet sounds awesome. Can we add hormones and uterine lining numbers to it.?..I have been staring at my numbers and wish I had something to compare it to.
  • @funkykey lol at the gummies!  I had to get prescription prenatals because the doctor found that I lack folic acid so I need extra!  They are gross but I take at bedtime so I haven’t gotten sick from them.
  • @roisis great spreadsheet, but yes, currently read only! :)
  • Really sorry about that guys - is it editable now?

    I'll add it to my siggy - and I'll add in the hormones and uterine lining numbers too - thanks for the suggestion @smittenkitten_aka_knottie821 :)

    @funkykey I have The same issue with my gummy Prenat vitamins!! So I was taking Vitafol one w/dha but in the new year my prescription plan changes and they stopped covering Vitafol one BUT they do cover the Vitafol gummies w/dha ... don’t understand it but hey I’m not complain they taste amazing!! And the fact I pay $30 for a 3 month supply is pretty great too! It’s a win/win for me except when H eats some.
  • @roisis I was able to edit... can you see it? 
  • @ndz2018 - yup - I see the edit :smile:

    I can edit too!  I added a column for what gender embryo you are transferring since it seems like quite a few of us know. If anyone is mobile and can’t edit the spreadsheet let me know and I can add your details for you.

    im going in Monday monitoring and I guess we Wil go from there
  • @dragonette505 Oh no! Are they open today so maybe could talk to a nurse and see if there is anything you can do?

  • @dragonette505 OH NO!! Ugh my SIL had the same issues before her transfer but I think They got it under control right before or when she got AF. 
  • @dragonette505 Oh no - hopefully they can just adjust your dose and get it under control? I'm on thyroid medication too - but they just keep an eye on it. My RE says it's really only a problem once you get pregnant - so up until transfer it can be constantly adjusted. I'm sure they'll sort you out next week <3

  • @mcgeeva Yay for FET and Yay for 5 frosties! I'm so excited for you and my fingers are super duper crossed for you! <3 I went back to read your earlier reply to me. Sorry it took me so long to remember to get back here. It didn't make sense for me to reply on February ivf lol

    How are you doing on the estrace?


    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.

  • @kristimh80 they actually are open, but she wanted me to come Monday. I’ve been keeping quiet and that’s helping.
    @ndz2018 this sort of happened last year with my fet (but not such a bad reaction) and I was still able to transfer, but that clinic was a lot more casual :(
    @roisis I hope they can get it worked out too.... I hate feeling this way, but I also don’t want to have my thyroid in a bad place for transfer :(
  • @mcgeeva Apparently I cannot count. Is that 10 days from now?

    I'm going to test on 3/31. The new clinic doesn't do betas unless to confirm. I am not looking forward to that but I decided to bite the bullet and do it, but I will not be using internet cheapies. Digital only. That's how I will protect myself from a possible . . . Well, maybe I should to see if it happens again, then maybe we can investigate why it's happening. Gah. I don't know. Did you see that I am now taking thyroid medication? /eyeroll

    What are you up to this weekend?

  • @suzycupcake ha yep by next Friday hopefully I’ll start my estrace. You know I always did windfo test strips just because I couldn’t wait and digitals are so expensive! Good luck to you! This weekend doing major clean out then hitting the road for three days with my husband to eat good food and drink before starting up next week :) What about you?

    @tosh24 OMG stay here with us!!! Ugh you poor thing! What kind of bad reaction was it? Are you ok? 

    ETA - words are hard sigh  :/
  • @tosh24 of course stay here!!! Was this your first time on lupron? 
  • Thanks ladies! Guess I'll know an exact day at Monday's appt. Our anniversary is during transfer week, but or course I don't think my RE does transfers on Wednesday.

    @tosh24 Yes...stay here and hang out with us!!! It's nice seeing a familiar face hanging out with us :) I can't even with those other boards because most "don't get it". Some times I'll stalk the PAIF board to see old faces and for a glimmer of hope knowing they know our struggle. I hope everything starts to pan out for you. It's not April yet, so I think you still have time to make this board either way <3

  • @tosh24 Yes - definitely hang here! The whole frickin problem with this stupid IF/IVF/FET stuff is that the months just don't go the way we planned. And this might be the exasperated Be-yotch coming out in me but when people state how long they've been TTC in months - that's just not the boat we're in!! It can be really hard to find somewhere that you really feel people understand what you're going through and accept how difficult things are - so stay right here <3
    My AF is 7 days late now and I'm getting frustrated - I think subconsciously I was expecting it to be a week - but I have a work trip to plan and I need my dates!!
    Yay to see y'all in the spreadsheet :) I always have to look twice at dates - all the wrong way around - you Crazy Americans!!! (gotta love the world-wide-web for bringing us all together <3<3<3)

    Excuse me ladies, I don't mean to intrude but I need to ask @dragonette505 the name of that group posting fake posts here and actually promoting surrogacy? I think they're back. *TW* I just had a failed IUI *end TW* and restarting a cycle, waiting for my next appt tomorrow. I feel like hunting scums of the earth. :neutral:
  • @shae44 ugh another hidden AF! Here’s hoping she comes soon!
    @tinjp78 hey boo!!!! Ugh... how many more iui’s before they move you to IVF? That company is biotex .... go get em!
  • @dragonette505 I reviewed our previous threads and I found the durn name... biotex... 

    sorry again for the intrusion <3 
  • @dragonette505 ooops! We were typing at the same time. :wink:  This will be the last of my 3 IUI and then I go back to IVF.
