Sorry ladies just a quick one cause im extremely tired! I know the nurse was so wrong to bring it up in front of everyone and like you all said its none of her business.
Melissa good luck with your cycle. With my long down reg cycles i was on lucrin for a week then started puregon and did both for another 2 weeks before egg pick up so i was on injections for 22 days before EPU. I hopew this helps xx
Loops im sorry about your DH it just isnt fair lately, when we thought we would finally have a good year after our rough one last year my DH hurt his reconditioned knee wake boarding on new years weekend! so great start to the year he is having an MRI scan on it on thursday, we are just praying its nothing bad.
Everyone i hope your all doing ok and keeping positive xxx
Good luck with the bt tomorrow katones! Hope your levels are where they want them!
Hi Melissa - hope this one goes well for you! I haven't used lucrin, but synarel does the same thing (I think), I was on it alone for 8 or 9 days, then 7 days of puregon as well for each of mine. The pattern was basically synarel from day 21 then puregon from day 2, with bt on day 8, so in total just over 2 weeks. 3 weeks seems like a long time, but I guess if your cycle is longer then it drags out a bit.
How did your appt go lmm?
Hi loops, oneday, teirae, jbm, and anyone I've missed!
My first bt is a week away. Things are happening (soon!)
I just got a phone call from the fertility clinic.. they had a cancellation, for tomorrow so asked us if we wanted it! unfortuantly we cant cause its not enough notice for DHs work and they are already a man down...and i am interstate (although could go back early). its a bit of a pity.... its a pain cause the fc is in a different city to where we live, so we would have to take a whole day off etc...
ahh well, i would have been super excited if it was on tomorrow but im alright with waitin til the 10th like originally planned.
teirae. well maybe you're supposed to wait for your app, but still annoying for you i suppose. good luck to you
kass: good luck with BT this week, fingers crossed
katones: not long to go for you. fingers crossed and good luck etc, etc,
oneday: hope youre feeling a bit more awake soon.
melissa: yeah it's hard to find the time to get on here sometimes, i'm sort of still on hols as only doing 2 to 3 days per week work which is the only reason i have so much time to get on here. good luck to you
lmm: hope AF is being nice today
afm: i need to call the clinic tomorro and just see what i can do this year. waiting is the worst but i needed the break.
Hi Ladies
I am sorry I just wrote to you all and then lost it - stupid computers sometimes.
Thanks for all your thoughts and wishes regarding DH - he is home and on the mend now for 2-3 months! No Melissa if I have anything to do with it he wont be over doing it LOL.
Goodluck to all this month - a few are doing Assisted cycles - I wish you the very best of luck. And to everyone
Oneday ~ yes we have not had the best of luck lately - surely that is about to change. Hope your DH's knee is ok. Hugs
AFM ~ As you can see I am still waiting for AF. May do another POAS tonight but really think its just my body still trying to get back on track after last IVF.
Oneday/Kass - thanks for your input on jabbing! I rang my clinic yesterday and they were still on hol until today so I had to be patient until today. I dunno, this cycles seems really strange. For one thing, rather than starting buserilin on day 21, I am starting today which is day 32 so not sure whats up with that. Two weeks of that then Puregon starts with EPU scheduled for the week of Feb 14. Happy Valentines Day to us!!!! I am a bit miffed that we've been pushed back until then as we originally rebooked into the first possible slot (which is Feb 1st) of 2011 way back when we had to cancel in July. However, nothing I can do about it. Right now, I am in this lovely little calm zen-like state and am wanting to stay that way as long as I possibly can
Kass - woohoo for things getting moving, FX this is the lucky one
Katones - hope all went well today. Did you get your EPU date?
Teirae - ohhh bummer about not being able to take the cancellation slot. Whereabouts are you at in your journey? I may have to read back over the last few weeks or so to catch up on people
JBM - I hear you on the waiting. Even though I don't think our break has been anywhere near as long as yours (about six months I think), while the break from the stress is lovely, it just feels like such wasted time. Are you hoping to get another round of ivf in soon?
Loops - glad to hear that you will be forcing your DH to take it easy. Dunno what it is about guys in general when they always try and rush back into things then wonder why they feel like crap/in agony afterward.
Me - had a lovely day off work today just pottering, doing me-things. It was great! We have our first jab of the cycle tonight - bring it on! Just wondering, what does everyone feel about exercise during a cycle? Just read so many mixed things about it and really don't know whether to carry on as I am or just ease right off.
Hi to all, hope you are all good
JBM, I think it's great you had some time out... and I hope your clinic guides you quickly towards a BFP now!
Tei, I would be antsy about missing that opportunity too! But it must be for a reason, or so I would be telling myself
that's exciting Kass it's so good when we are in the optimistic part of this merry-go-round...! I am happy to say that AF was very short and pretty low key, so I am just looking forward to O time now Thanks for asking about my appt... will update below.
Katones I hope you BT told you what you wanted to know..
Melissa, so annoying when clinic is closed and you want to ask questions I know! Mine are only avail to call Mon-Thur 10-12 and 1-4.
Hi to Oneday, Loops and all else I have missed! hope your week is going well so far. Loops, just saw you have posted... hope AF shows up soon for you.
AFM... appointment was good I suppose, though fairly uneventful. DP's results are even better than last time... he has three times as many swimmers as is considered 'normal' and they are swimming a little better than before. He only has 9% good morphology, so that is a little low, but in all other areas fine. FS gave me a script for Ovidrel seeing as Pregnyl is in worldwide shortage now.
She has no issue with my cycle to O being three weeks now... as long as I am ovulating and my LP is lengthened by the HCG shot she is happy.
She has said to get a hysterosalpingogram to check tubes next month after AF (if I don't get UTD this month). And she has given me all the paperwork on IVF to start reading... though I think trying IUI first might be a good idea? What's your opinion on this? She has said that if I decided to do IUI just to let her know... so she is not really being very directive.
FX I won't need to go down that path... apparently having tubes flushed can increase chances anyway.
