Thank you so much for talking to me...my BETA isn't until tomorrow @ 11:15 CST. I didn't know about the numbers, nobody at my doctor's office said anything. The only information I have is what I get from the internet and books. I'm on prometrium suppositories, progesterone (that melts in your mouth, I'm at work and can't remember the name), Vivelle patches and Estradiol. The only thing that has changed is the actual "harvesting" of the eggs. I went from regular doses of follistim to 1/3, 1/2 of the Lupron and progesteron shots - those were nice. After the eggs were removed I was hopitolized because I was dehydrated and building up fluids in my abdomen from all of the follicles. They were pumping fluids in my IV and using a catheter to drain fluids from my stomach....I don't know if I can go through that again.........But I know I will, the urge to have that beautiful little tiny person is overwhelming. I've been doing all the talking, when do you start IVF#2? Tell me what happened with IVF#1 (if you want). Do you have any children? How long have you been trying to conceive? I'm so excited, I finally have someone I can talk to.
Hi! First of all, you are not alone. There are so many of us on here going through the same thing!!! If your FET was just last Tuesday, then I wouldn't bother with the HPT's yet. Often they are inaccurate. When is your BETA?
I can't believe you had 40 eggs & 5 blasts! Those are great numbers. I didn't get to freeze any and will have to go through it all again for IVF#2. Are you on progesterone shots? Vivelle patches??? Have they changed your protocal at all since the first time? I hear that cramping can be a good sign! So stay positive and wait until your beta. Keep us updated! I hope you get a BFP!!!! SSBD!
