MHV: yay!! Glad things look good! April here we all come ready for our BFP!!
Kp: I know what you mean!! Everywhere you turn someone is pregnant after trying for a month or just had a baby. Of course I'm happy for them but my heart always sinks that it's not me :(
I don't know why we were chosen to fight the infertility battle but we are all strong women and can get through it. I just keep telling myself that I'll look back at this someday and think WOW... it was so worth it...when I have a cute little son or daughter. Hang in there.
I was on Gonal F for my IUIs and I wasn't nauseous but not sure about others. What drugs will you be on? I will also be on Menopur and Orgalutron. Hopefully those are ok too :)

I am going to be on Menopur and Folistim, and ganirelix and then the progesterone cream.  I have only done the HSG shot in the past with the IUI's so I don't know what to expect with the stimulation injections.  I tend to stress about the unknown factors and since this is all new to me it is worse.

Kp 192 I know what you mean about the meds!! There are so many of them and I hope to be ok on all of them!
MHV that's awesome about your lining!! You are well on your way. What's next??
I met with the nurse yesterday. She went over all the drugs and when to take them. I hope I don't get too confused, but she said they tell you with each visit anyway. I pick up my meds tomorrow! How exciting!! AF should be here next week and then I can get started!! Yay!!!!

Rghkah I had a total of 4 Sonos and I did have about 3 days of light bleeding after one of them. The Dr that did it really hurt me though as he didn't know what he was doing and actually could not do the SONO fully. When I had my last one the Dr was very good and I only a little spotting for a day or so.  I know it's crazy!!! April is almost here!!!!
