Cuddlepie: Let's hope your three embies are going to stick around for the long haul. I am not sure how high the risk is with freezing I think I asked my doctor and I think she said something of 80-90% thraw fine.
AFM: I've the weirdest BT result, E2 is 1120. Absolutely didn't expect that as I thought after only three puregons it should be somewhere between 100 and 500. FS has ordered me to already take Orgalutran tonight so had to raise to the pharmacy to get one. I've asked to have ultrasound tomorrow morning instead of Tuesday as I really want to know what's going one there. I think worst case scenario I only have one which is already close to ovulation which would mean cycle gets cancelled, but hoping for a miracle.

CP - that was exactly the result I got from my first cycle, and it's a fine result. Getting a huge number of eggs is not what's important - that you have 3 good ones is.
Sara - I hope the scan goes well.
-
Sara, I hope the E2 level gives good indication of great number of follicles! Glad you are having u/s done on Monday to see what is going on...
About the Thawing rate, so far all my embies have thawed successfully actually, so I will make the final decision based on my Day 3 result...
Thanks Julie for your kind words. I hope you are doing fine and diarrhea is gone by now...
-
Sorry to jump in our your thread girls but I wanted to give a big cheer to my special friend CP. 4 little embies is a great result CP. We found the quality of our embies were really good with the antagonist cycle. I am hoping and praying for you that you will get your BFP from this cycle like we did. Stay strong my friend.
Wishing you all the very best on your journeys.
Hugs Bel

Thanks Bel, you are so sweet...I would love to have the 'happy ending' for this cycle for a change...
Sara, how did this morning scan go? Hope everything is going well.
-
CP: Really hoping for the happy ending for you :goodluck:
Buliej: Hope you're going okay, saw your comment in the other forum and can understand your concern. Thinking of you and praying for a h&h and prefectly uneventful pregnancy for you.
WLAB: Hope the TWW is treating you kindly - when is your BT? Saw the other thread and can understand that you're already planning for the next step as I am also a planner and feel best wehn I have a Plan B, C, D & E. I really hope this is not neccessary and your BT will be positive. Otherwise I agree with Possum's comments.
Kel: How are you going hun?
Manhattan: Hope everthing is going well for you.
:hello: Lisa, WTH, Meredith
Girls, I am over the moon, who would have expected: I had nine follicles between 6 and 12 mm, so I have a reasonable chance of having more eggs this time than last time, already starting to hope to have 6 - may come crashing down from cloud nine as I know not all follicles contain eggs and the quality may be bad.... but for now I've become an enthusiastic supporter of wheatgrass, tomato juice and DHEA & Jann the acupuncturist (this are the things I changed this cycle compared to last time).
Have a great day,
Sara

WOOHOO Sara, that sounds wonderful, I am so happy for you and wishing you all the best for this cycle. Look forward to hearing how it goes. Big hugs, xx
-
Thank you BDT, cyclebuddy - how are things looking for you?
Sara

Sara: That's an amazing result; I am just so happy for you I can't describe it. :hug:
CP: Do you have some more good news to share with us today?
BDT/Manhattan/Julie/Lisa/Meredith/WTH/WLAB: :hello:
AFM, not going to EPU on Wednesday unfortunately because the follicles haven't grown enough since Friday. So, EPU is definitely on Friday now. Still approx. 20 follicles, but found out today from FS that PCOS ovaries develop more abnormal eggs than "normal" ovaries, which I didn't know, so we have that to contend with as well. Still, good steady growth even if in small increments, and no signs of OHSS yet, so all is well.
-
Cuddlepie - :clap: on your three wonderfully fertilised embies. I :pray: they keep dividing and you are PUPO in the coming days ;)
Sara - OMG :dance: Just shows what a whole crock of %#@* the whole FSH thingo is. Soooooo glad you trusted your own instincts and have given this cycle a chance... :goodluck:
Kel - Good luck with your EPU on Friday. I hope this week does not drag on for you (and that you are not too uncomfortable with your big batch of eggies) :crossfingers:
-
OMG, Sara, I am thrilled for you...like WTH said, FSH really means nothing...so glad you give it a shot this time. I am interested to see what your FS say about this.... sometimes they just don't have answers for things like this....I hope with this growing rate, you will have your EPU this week at some stage....
Kel, slowing growing is good for the egg's quality, so I guess extra two days in the grand scheme of things is not bad if you can get improved egg quality...hang in there, not long to go...
AFM, no news, Days 3 report is tomorrow, I am not so looking forward to it TBH....:rolleyes:
-
Sara - that is awesome. I am in a seminar and am suppose to be paying attention but I had to check and am so glad I did.
I am proceeding with getting a script for dhea - on Wed. I need to have a back up plan if this doesn't work out.
I will post more later.
-
Hi Girls, hope you all enjoyed a nice weekend!
Kel - hope your eggies continue to grow nice and healthy for your EPU on friday. Will your mum still be in town then?
Sara - that is fantastic news, I'm really so happy for you. Fingers crossed there are lots of eggs growing in there for you this time around.
CP - praying your embies keep dividing and they can make it to the next stage!
WTH - excuse my ignorance, but what is PUPO???
:hello: to everyone else!
Afm, not much happening, (22 days til next FS appt!) although have an appt with my GP tonight to discuss ivf and pgd (upon FS recommendation). Hope to come out with more answers than questions this time!
-
Manhatten - it is an acronym Cuddlepie taught me - PUPO= Pregnant Until Proven Otherwise ;) GL with your appointment.
-
Ah gotcha now! I knew P was for Pregnant, but couldnt work out the rest :D
-
Sara - I'm so happy for you - those numbers are great. I'm sure there's at least 1 good egg in there. So glad you pushed forward with this cycle.
Kel - good luck on Friday - I hope the follicles keep on growing and you get some nice eggies.
CP - I hope the Day 3 report is a good one - fingers crossed
Manhattan - I hope you get some good advice from your GP.
Hello to everyone else!
-
Sara : Wonderful news, what a rollercoaster month for you lovely
Kel : Good luck for Friday, oh I hope those little eggs are growing nicely
Cuddlepie : Thinking of you for tommorows day 3 results
Manhatten : I hope your GP can give you all the answers you need
Hi WTHope and to BullieJ -
Julie: Thanks for the dosage amounts on the weatgrass, I forgot to text you thanks
AFM: Who would like some free lawnmower clippings (aka wheatgrass) I bought it yesterday, and I can't do it. So I think $5.00 postage and it's free to a good home ... oops I mean free to good eggs .... ;) I only used 2 teaspoons of it ..
AFM: I am not going insane, I am insane,:wall: - However, I will be fine, nothing like a tww that you want to work with all your heart to keep you going
-
WLAB - did you hate the taste of the wheatgrass - I didn't find it so horrible - I was expecting worse - and compared to my Chinese herbs, the wheatgrass is like chocolate! try mixing it in other things if you can't do it with the water. On the weekends we'd make a smoothy at home and throw some in - couldn't even taste it. I don't think it would go with orange juice, but maybe another juice? Also, WLAB, when is your AF due?
