February IVF-ers!!!

I wanted to start this thread if anyone is interested in having a cycle buddy for a Feb. IVF.
I know its a little early, but I'm on the antagonist protocol and am done with the bc pills. I will
have my u/s on Sun. Jan 31 and if all goes well, I will start my stims.
I turned 40 one month ago. I spoke with the IVF nurse and she estimates my egg retrieval for Feb 9 or 10.
I will have a 3 day transfer possibly on Feb 12 or 13.  Really excited and hope there are others out there who need some company.  Right now I don't have to take anything, so I am just floating along here until my u/s.  
Anyone with ivf  stories is also welcome.

kahlua:  That doesn't sound bad at all!  8 and 9 cells are great!  Remember you only need one good egg!!!  Good luck during tww, I know how tough that is.

My update for now is that I have blood in my urine, they thought it was bacterial and I took antibiotics.  I still have the problem so I will probably have to see someone about it this week again. Also, this morning I had some vaginal bleeding.  I totally panicked and called the ivf nurse.  She said that since I don't have super severe cramping and the blood is not bright red (it is brownish red), then she is not worried about it.  That eased my fears for now. I am still scared but I know miscarriage cramps and these little things don't come close.  The nurse said that during early pregnancy you can have vaginal bleeding because there is so much that is changing in there.  In any case, I still have my u/s on Wednesday and am trying to focus on that.  I want to be happy during this pregnancy not a nervous nellie.  For now the vaginal bleeding has stopped and is not coming out anymore.  I am saying a little prayer that my baby is fine and all this will pass.  Good luck to you all and  ***baby dust***************

Good luck with the egg retrieval.  I had a lot of pain afterward so make sure you have some vicodin on hand or demand real pain killers YOU WILL NEED IT!!!
