As I was looking through the posts, it seems like a lot of ladies are right around where I am. Who's around CD 6 and taking shots? Thought we could stick together and vent or whatever! HUGS and SSBD to all!

Well it gets worse...went to re's office today and I still have 17 follicles left over from last cycle. So we have to take a month off no meds, no iui, no treatments..we are allowed to try naturally and then with my next cycle we will start monitoring again! So good luck to all and please continue to pray for us and we will do for all of you! I will continue to post and read the post so keep em' coming!

bfromthed,

I admire your fortitude. It will happen for you.

Heather5,
What are you taking for the cysts? I was trying to read through the posts to find out. I am on Femcon birth control pills for a total of 18 days. I have have 9 more days to go. I started on cycle day 3. My RE said I would get AF approx. 3-4 days after the last pill. Funny....I can't understand how taking b/c pills for 18 days versus 21 days would bring on AF sooner than the 28-29 day cycle I am used to. On day 3 of my cycle, I am supposed to get U/S to ***** size of cysts and determine folllie number. RE will then decide fertility course. I beleive he mentioned adding Bravelle in addiiton to Menopur. Is it possible the cysts with the help of Femcon, would reduce enough in size? I also have reservations about IUI. The costs are adding up. If IUI doesn't take this time, he will reccomend IVF. I don't know if it would be financially foolish to not go straight to IVF and make the financial sacrifice.

I am not sure going to re's office tomorrow for baseline so after the next u/s we will see how the follies are and will know the program in the next few days  I will post as soon as I find out. We will have our BFP's this month together!!! Be sure to keep posting...

Oh, no! I'm so sorry about stupid AF, bfromthed! I have a feeling I'm just a few days behind you... No symptoms whatsoever. Will you be continuing on the same meds? If my cyst is gone this next cycle, I'll get to try another round of femara/menopur. Hopefully, November will be our month!!!

TT re's office today and going in tomorrow for baseline monitoring for this cycle..my re could not believe that I was calling with news of AF after having such great numbers this cycle! Thats why they say they are GODS gifts. I know when it's our time he will bless us! So I will keep posting with this months progress...Again tomorrow is baseline...they also had me do a beta which was negative at less than 2 to be on the safeside. According to their charts today should have been my implantation day thats why they had me do the test to be sure! Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes keep them going and it will happen for us! God said be fruitful and reproduce so it's coming... Thanks!

Maria: Congratulations!!! Cramping is actually pretty normal in early pregnancy, so try not to worry about that. Good luck with the tests, and keep us posted!

Bfromthed: It might just have been too early...Give it a few days and test again. I've got my fingers crossed for you!
