February IVF????

Hi ladies.  Anyone out there getting ready for an IVF cycle in February?  I am currently on my BCP's and waiting to do my mock transfer next week.  Looking for some cycle buddies if anyone is interested.

Today I start Bravelle and Menopur, 3 vials of each.  So glad they can all be mixed together so it's just 1 shot instead of 6!  I'm sorry but I can't remember what prolactin is??  Sounds like you will have lots of follies though, that is great.  Last cycle I only  had 5 follies and they got 6 eggs but only 5 were mature.  Hoping and praying for more eggs this time so we can possibly do a 5dt instead of a 3dt.  

Heres to hoping our 2nd time up to bat we get a homerun!!!!

Hey, good to hear things are on track for you. I'm on day 6 of my stims and still going. Have 3+ follies on one side and 4+ on the other. Will see tomorrow how many more have grown. Waiting on the results of my prolactin test as well. It was a bit elevated but hoping the dostinex has helped! Praying hard for this. Doc says my lining is good so now it's just a waiting game. Hope this cycle works for us.

U/S showed 2 follies and a small cyst on left and 3 follies on the right. My nurse said my estrogen level was good so this cycle is a go!!!  Starting Lupron on thursday, hoping it will help get some more follies growing!!!

One more day of BCP, then U/S and B/W on tuesday and if all is good,  I start Lupron on Thursday.  Getting down to the nitty gritty now.  Very excited.  Praying for good results this time.  Hoping I have lots of eggs so we can do a 5d blasto transfer.  

How are the rest of you ladies holding up??

My levels only went down, they never went up.  Did you have a D&C or did they let the miscarraige occur naturally??  It could be that there is still some tissue(placenta) in there producing HCG.  I had a D&C done just to make sure everything was out so I could get started sooner.  It did take about 7.5 weeks for my period to start again.  Good luck.  I hope you get there sooner then I did.

angelina and krispeteyjo - welcome aboard!!!  

Today was a rough day for me.  Had to go thru the mock transfer again since I had the D&C in november and if was ROUGH!!!  It brought me to tears.  It was as if my cervix was glued shut.  It did not want to let anything in.  The first one I bearly felt anything.  Dr said everything looked great, not sure exactly why it hurt so bad.  U/S showed a small cyst on my left ovary this time.  Last cycle I had one on my right.  Hoping the BCP will help it go away.  Really don't want to have to wait another month because of a cyst.  Been there done that and didn't like it!

Hope everyone is doing good.
