AGP to the Rescue!

Here's to a lucky summer!!!  I think our old thread got pushed back somewhere so I started a new one.

Krista, hey there hun... So sorry your follies have continued to be stubborn.  I agree that it doesn't hurt to keep going with the meds for another couple days and then see what transpires.  Do you think maybe you could switch to an IUI if it's just the one follicle at the end of the day?  Oh, and I definitely think that the antibiotic is guilty as charged for bringing on the yeast infection... antibotics are notorious for those ugly things.  I feel for you my friend.

Sally, glad to hear that all is a go with the procedure for this Friday!  Sounds like you've got all the administrative stuff out of the way.  Now... as for your neighbor getting her BFP... that just means there's some luck going around the hood, and now it's your turn!  Don't let it get you down - chin up and positive thoughts!  It's good news that you'll be able to start stims so soon after your procedure.  And don't forget how awesome your new doctor is.  I think your BFP is coming and you don't even realize it!  

Oh, and I will be following up on Friday afternoon after my u/s to let you know how many they count in there.  I'm very anxious to get to my appt, but this wait is not nearly as bad as last week waiting for the 1st and 2nd betas.  I think you may be on to something tho... I've been thinking it is twins the last couple of days.

ok. I am re-posting because I used the same phrases over and over again in my previous post.. I need to write some new stuff.

Krista...
Its those antibiotics!!!!  If I look at one, Im baking enough hoagie rolls for a tailgate party!  I take acidophilis (however thats spelled) and eat yogurt like a maniac.. also use some vagisil on the outside so you don't itch your crotch right off in the middle of the night.  Also, you might want to wear some rubber underwear.. helps keep your hands out in the middle of the night.  Wanna borrow a pair?  
Heeheee
Kidding
Not
Ok, kidding

Sally,  I hear you sista!  My DH was super sweet today, too, and I asked him about adoption, donor eggs, etc.  He said he would do whatever I wanted, if it would make me happy.  Then he took me out for hotdogs, french fries and chocolate cake.  :-)  I love him like crazy and feel terrible for being so low lately.

Ok, this is gross, but I have to ask...I have a terrible yeast infection and I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the shots/meds.  I am thinking between the meds and the antibiotic from getting my tooth pulled last week it has created the perfect environment for the crud.  OMG it is freakin' painful.

So the RN called me back and said the RE wasn't optimistic, but wanted me to continue the shots until Thursday.  I don't have anything to lose (the meds are already paid for and if this cycle doesn't work [which is likely] I will ask the RE to try a different cocktail).  If, by Thursday, I still have only one follicle, I will very likely cancel.  The stupid follicle is obviously not the strongest and most mature, or it would be growing a little/lot more quickly.  

Anyway, been thinking about all of you.  Keep the good news coming...

Hello my friends.. and yes, I consider you all my friends, even though my DH thinks Im a mental patient for talking about you all like you live right next door and we all have girls night.

Jen.. I think as a group effort, we will all be thinking super positive thoughts for you beta tomorrow.  Much love, sista!

Magda.. So glad you are posting again.. I missed you.  Also glad to know someone will be close to my schedule.. come on AF,you can do it!

Krista.. I am so pissed at your follies it ain't even funny!  Do I need to come over there to Chi town and give 'em a talking to?  Maybe if you see Oprah she can fix it.. ya know, shes a powerful force that Oprah Winfrey.  Come you low down dirty follies.. GROW!!!!!

Amberlee... Besides the tradgedy of the mani/pedi, how are things progressing?  Transfer soon I do believe.

Renell, Kari and Helen.. How are those numbers?? Anyone with twins?  Kari, your numbers might be twins.. who knows???  Exciting stuff!

Miky.. Where are you in your cycle?  I only see you fleetingly on the thread.. details dear, details!!!

I have just finished a harrowing day of consults, blood work, pre-admission testing at some new hospital (which scares me), errands, acupuncture and dealing with a DH that forgot to walk the dogs so he could go golfing (ARGHHHHHHHH).Everything is a GO for Friday and then he said it "looks promising" for stims  in like 3 or 4 days after surgery.
He didn't give me a guarantee, but he "thinks" there shouldn't be a problem.  My next door neghbor just had IVF and she just got her BFP today,and since we were the only "non-fertile" women in the 'hood, I now am completely freaked out that there is no way in H+E+L+L it's going to work.  So, I had my usual breakdown and DH was super sweet (I think he was still feeling guilty about the dog thing) and told me we could try again, adopt, foster.. whatever i wanted.  Don't think I won't mentally file that promise away.

Ok, Im rambling.. Love u guys.. y'all rock!

Magda - What country would you be moving to? I'm so hoping that IVF #4 is the winner for you. And, I'm really glad your back!

Krista- It's a tough decision, but I (like you) am a realist and with your #'s would probably stop the cycle and wait for the next. I know that blows, sister, but you are right...it would make sense in terms of time and resources (e.g. cost). So sorry...

Thanks again for all the love. Will keep you posted tomorrow...
