Aa
Just got back from RE!
Well, they have moved my ER date from Wed. to Tues! I am so excited and nervous!!!! I have 3 follicles on the right at 17 and 2 on the left that are 15 and 17. I have 11 follicles all together but those are the biggest ones. I pray for lots of excellent eggs! My lining is looking good too.
The only thing is I am having an allergic reaction to the gonirellix (stops ovualtion) but have to power through it one more day! My leg is red and the skin was raised & itchy where the injection went. It is going down now though with ice.
My arms have had it... I can't stand blood w/d daily anymore! ONE MORE DAY of stims and blood!!! Yea!
Then onto the mother of injections... progesterone! Ugh! 8-)

I feel your energy... weird huh? Thanks so much for all of your happy thoughts. It helps keep me sane! No one else seems to get my excitement! My MIL is still suggesting I am stressed and that is my problem!! My family lives on the other side of the country so its hard to share my experience with them. So....Thanks; deepest thanks to all of you!!! I don't mean to get all emotional but I am so glad I found this forum!
Congratulations!! I am so excited for you and wishing you lots of luck and baby dust!!!
Congratulations. You should get a one day reprieve from shots the day before your retrieval. Hang in there. Keep us posted on your eggies and embies. :)
P.S. - I answered your lupus question in my post (albeit a very LONG answer! - sorry!)
Thanks so much ladies!!!!
Tina.. I'll remember to bring benedryl cream with me to the RE tomorrow morning. She has been giving me that shot at the office. Good suggestion!
Nylena: This is my first IVF. Let me know when you hear the news! Good luck to you too!!!

Congrats and best of luck to you!! Sounds like you are on your way!! Sorry that you are having an allergic reaction to the meds. That's not fun, but at least your almost done with them. The progesterone was not bad at first, but now after almost 8 weeks of injections, my back end is sore and knotty, but all the pain is worth it!! The things us women have to go through!!!! Really, best of luck to you and dh!!
Best wishes for lots of fat juicy eggs,girl! Although you just need a few good ones,it' quality not quantity that counts when it comes to eggs.Is this yr first ivf? I have just finished an ivf cycle which produced 4 equally good ones,now i'm on the wait,wondering what's happened..SSBD to you too!
Congratulations!!
i hope you get really good eggs!! the progesterone shots are not that bad :) SSBD!!
