October/ November FET cycle buddies

[jessy_fernan]

Hi there,

Just want to have some new cycle buddies for oct/nov 2012..i will b having FET done this month hopefully the 31st. After 3 IVF & 1 FET in 2 yr all had been failed. This lost my baby boy this Feb 2012  @ 15 weeks due to me having subchorionic hematomas. It was hard broken for me and dh but this time im so ready for this new experience. Im afraid due to having so many misscarriages and not knowing the cause but finally my re did testing and i have a FACTOR II MUTATION  that may be the cause of my miscariages 2 yrs ago.

This cycle my meds are...estrace 2mg 3x..baby aspirin..prenatals..pio 2x..lovenox 1x

Im praying for this cycle to be my miracle cycle and praying in God to have a heatlhy baby or babies...

Hope can have some cycle buddies to share our experiences together..

As far as lining goes all I know is that my RE wanted it to be over 7 as well.  If I can recall I was a 8.5 as well on the day of my u/s and then four days later on transfer day when the checked my lining he said it was "good" but didn't give me a measurement.  And yes being trilaminar is good as well because that is the other thing they checked me for in my u/s.    Soooooooo that's as much as I can help you out with for linings.

Did the Dr. put you on any other meds after the transfer?  

Think "puffy cushy snuggly" lining for your little bean.  Snuggle baby snuggle.

I can't help you there. My RE hardly ever comments on my lining. This Monday he did say it was thin but that was the only comment I've ever gotten out of him. I just assume if there was a problem he would tell me. I trust him.

Hey Guys,

I'm kind of MedHelp illiterate and I'm not sure how to post on this forum in a general sense. I noticed some talk about lining thickness and I know this is always a confusing topic. My last two FET's my lining was @ 8.5 and my RE says this is good, but I see notes on here that that is on the thin side. Anyone know much about this? I did some googling and it looks like 7 is the preferred minimum. Mine is always trilaminar and I thought that was what the docs look for.

Hmmmm.......

Hey tes I was just thinking about you and wondering how things went!  I'm glad to see that you feeling good.  I agree about the rest, if you can do it great go for it but if you can't don't stress about it.

My first transfer I had 5 days of lounging around.  I only had my 6 year old daughter and she keep herself pretty busy.  NOW this time around I have an almost 3 year old and a 9 year old......not much time for bed rest for me - LOL.

So we do what we can, when we can and how we can and just try not to stress about it......that is not good for our bodies!

You will be fine tes....do your shift and then take some time off.....great idea.  

AFM no pregnancy symptoms yet....I am only 4dpt...I know, I know it's still early yet but I keep checking the girls on a daily basis and nothing yet.  That one part of me says ....."no it's not gonna work" and the other part of me says......"relax, take it easy, it's early yet".  Time will tell, but I tell you it feels like four months have passed and not four days.  I guess I just gotta keep busy, busy, busy, then I won't have time to obsess over whether or not my boobs are sore, or if that twinge in my uterus meant anything or not....call me crazy because that's what I feel like right now --but a good crazy :)

comeon ladies, you can make it, its not over until those beta's are through.....

AFM - im ok, feeling very positive which is a change for me , But i feel good about this time, i have been chilling out reading books, but tonight im back at work 3-10pm on the A and E dept too, so i hope its too busy, i wont hold much hope as its a friday night, the drunks etc love the dept on a fri eve, lol

hubby is cross that i am going in but i didnt tell me bosses about ivf as i didnt want the stress of all the questions, so i have a few days holiday booked off after tonight and tomorrows shift,

Everyone has mixed feeling on how long to rest up etc, hoepfully it wont have any impact on them settling in, i have told myself it will either work or not,,, I mean ppl get pregs when they do normal things, and atleast i have given myself 2 days rest.......

Hows everyone feeling??? any signs????

Oh Jessy I feel your frustration my dear. It's hard to feel like trying again when we are so used to being disappointed all the time. Honestly DH and I are at the end of a heartbreaking 10 yr struggle with IF. We both have IF and only mine is treatable. And we may be finding out very soon that my IF isn't treatable either. It's a lot to take in and I'm very grateful for the few good friends that always have my back on this forum. i couldn't do it without them. Keep posting here and we will help you pull thru this because that's what friends are for. I have confidence that you will eventually have your baby but the million dollar question is when!

I am on 30mg Lovenox and baby aspirin. The Lovenox comes on pre filled syringes. Since your seeing a hematologist they may feel ok about changing you to something a little stronger. You might want to see him before you quit the Lovenox in case they want to test your blood to see what your clothing time is (pro time).
