Hi Scottvoce.. I believe we met on introduce yourself... I am also in a similar boat with you. I am 36 and on third cycle but my meds include clomid 100 mg and the two injections of Gonal F 150 mg each. Are you taking only Gonal F?? I also have my second u/S on Friday too check if my three eggs matured enough for insemination. I wish us both luck!!! Doo you have any children? I am tring for # 1. Keep in touch and keep me updated and I will do the same> You will love it on this sight the people are awesome. BABY DUST to all!!! :bdust: :crossfingers: :pdust:
I have one son from my first marriage... he's nearly 20.:
My partner has no children and we are desperate to have one.
It's unexplained that I can not conceive.. except age!!!
I pretty much ovulate .. the 75 gonal is just a extra help.
I'm from Melbourne and my ultrasound this friday will be at Fremasons with DR Gronow.
Where you from ?
Good luck! and keep in touch.
This forum seems so suportiv ..so many messages and good wishes =D>
Hi sottovoce, I am 37 and have just had my second IVF attempt but no luck unfortunately. I've found the IVF journey is a huge rollercoaster with plenty of high's and lo's. One thing that has definitely kept me going and kept my spirits up is this board - everyone has been so supportive.
I've been taking clomid as well as having puregon and orgalutran injections and had so many scans I've lost track of how many! I always get a bit nervous but I always remind myself that if I get the outcome I'm hoping for it will all be worth it.
Lots of luck with your ttc journey :luck: - hopefully it's short one. :)
Marg
Thanks and good luck to you too.:
Are you actualy doing IVF or IUI?
i'm not familiar with taking clomid ,puregon or orgalutran injections.
keep in touch :)
Hi Scotvoce. I am single with no children, 36 years old and have not found that special someone but, my clock is still ticking so thats how it goes. I am on this journey by myself and able and could not be happier about my decision to have a little one. I also go for my U/S tommorow on 12/09/2005 to check the size of my eggs. I hope they have matured so I can conyinue with this cycle. I wish you loads of Baby Dust :pdust: :bdust: !!! Keep me informed. I will update tommorow night. Let me know what is going on with you.
You are very young so the succes is much greater than mine.:
wish you all the best :) Who's your doctor? & what clinic? hope you don't mind me asking. :bdust:
I will update tommorow night. Let me know what is going on with you as well.
I'm heading to the clinic after lunch to see the :doc:
tiamiami - I am in a similar situation to you. I am 37 with no kids yet but have a biological clock that's not just ticking but is screaming at me! I haven't had any luck via DI or IVF yet but am so excited about being a single mum, and that's taking into account that I'm sure there will be good times and bad. I wish you heaps of luck with your ttc journey and hope it's a short one. :pdust:
sottovoce - good luck with your appointment at the clinic. :crossfingers:
Marg
Thanks Marg:
I'm back from the clinic(back to work) I have to go back tomorrow morning :doc: had an emergency and we couldn't wait any longer 4 him.. had to be back to work for meeting .
Anyhow the nurse said tomorrow morning is fine for the U/S
Hi Scotvoce. An update from doctors appiontment on the U/S... This month is cancelled due to the size 10mm egg getting only four mm and the two 8 mm getting only 10 mm. My doctor is Dr. Michael Graubert in Palmetto hospital plaza in Hialeah, Florida. Let me know your update.
Sorry about that the 10mm grew to 14 mm.
Margz.... what type of treatments are you on??? Baby dust to you to.. Let me know how it is going.
sottovoce - hope your u/s went well.
tiamiami - I went through two insemination attempts, first with no drugs, the second with clomid and no luck. My first IVF mid-year was using synaril nasal spray, puregon injections for 6 days and then a pregnyl trigger injection - had two eggs but only one was mature enough - it fertilised & transferred but no luck.
The cycle that just finished was taking clomid for 5 days and puregon for 6 days - except the follices were still too small, so I had another 7 days of puregon injections - also having 7 days of orgalutran injections to stop me from ovulating - and then the pregnyl trigger injection. Still only got two eggs but both were mature. One was transferred and didn't take - the second didn't survive long enough to be frozen. And now I'm taking a break over Christmas and will have to look for a new Clinic because the one I've been at has run out of donors which is a real bummer.
So sorry your current cycle had to be cancelled tia. What treatments have you been trying?
Marg
Marg...
My first cycle I did Clomid 100 mg on day 3 to 7 with one egg maturing. BFN!
My second cycle Doc did Clomid again on cycle day 3 to 7 and then two injections each of Goanl F 150 iu. I did not have to take a trigger shot because I O on my own. In this cycle I created Two big eggs 20mm and 22mm with another BFN!
Now I did the same for this cycle but as you know eggs did not mature so....cancelled.
Doc is putting me on 4 injections of Bravelle 150 iu and also the Clomid on cycle day 3 to 7. So when I get AF I am to call nurse and she will tell me exactly what the sequence is. We just have to pray :-]....
Scotvoce..... How did the Doctors appiontment go??? Any updates?
I had to cancel friday and went back sat morning.:
:doc: found 2 eggs... I'm not sure how big they are but he said it's on the left side and they are "nice ones"?? hope that is pretty good news!!!
i'm still on gonal f 75 units!! and i feel that i'm definitely ovulating.
back tuesday afternoon to the clinic for a other scan .. until than morning test to detect "surge" :crossfingers: than IUI and the waiting game for :bfp:
Scotvoce it sounds great. I wish you :bdust: and :bluestick: :blues: pdust: and :pinkstick: Keep us updated and we will [-o< that you get you :bfp: very soon!

:bdust:
Scottvoce,
I know that this month will be ours! I had a HSG test on Friday Jan, 6, 2006 and the doctor said all is clear so know waiting to hear from doctors office about this cycle. I heard that some woman get preggo following the HSG test. Have you ever heard of that? I hope you had a Happy New Year! :pdust: to you.....
Margz,
How are things going? I hope you had a Happy New Year! Let me know how things are going? Where are you at in your cycle? :bdust: to you to!
Hi Scottvoce,
I have not seen you post in a while..... Are you ok? Let me know what is going on with you.
As for me the month of December I sat out but had a HSG test done and today 1/18/2006 had a progestrone test. Will get results by Friday the latest. If everything is a go then I will start meds on CD 1. The meds I will be on will be Clomid on CD 3 for 5 days then Bravelle injections! I hope this is a very good combo and will give me what I need to get my very big :bfp: Then if this happens I will have an October Blessing.... Hugs to you.
Scottovoce - hope you are doing well. Wishing you lots and lots of luck.
Tia - good luck with your new cycle. And here's to that possible October blessing - what wonderful news that would be.
I'm in the process of changing Clinic's and my first appointment with the new Clinic isn't until mid-Feb. The waiting is killing me! Not quite as bad as the TWW but I am getting slightly impatient! I've been seeing a Naturopath for the last month and am feeling really good - even though I'd like to lose a few more kilos! I guess because I'm feeling great - I really want to get started again. Oh well, just need to be patient a little longer!
Take care,
Marg
MargOz,
A long time no post from you either. I hope all is well with you. I wish you loads of Baby Dust in Februaury and much luck with your new Doc? What happen to the other Doc? Keep me updated.
Thanks for the good wishes Tia. The Clinic I was going to were fantastic but they have run out of donors! As I'm doing this ttc journey solo, that wasn't the sort of news I wanted to hear!
The appointment in Feb with the new Clinic is to see if they will accept me so I have everything crossable crossed - as this Clinic is only 1.5hr drive away from where I live - whereas the old Clinic was a 3.5hr drive. I certainly wont be missing all the excess driving - which I don't think helped my chances anyway. The old Clinic have said I have to let them know if I do get pregnant which is lovely of them - and I am going to miss the specialist and nurses there.
But now it's a new journey with a new clinic - and hopefully a little more luck along the way!
Take care & hope your current cycle keeps going great,
Marg
MargOz, I will pray for us to gether because we are both in our journey to concieve alone.
