Got up early for me at 9:00 a.m. with alarm but dozed another 30 min. Poor sleep again awake until after 2:00 a.m. probably cuz I was upset and annoyed by local transit strike, since midnite. My friend was supposed to come and visit today as they had free retractable clotheslines giveaway from provincial Hydro at Zellers, (like Walmart but Canadian). Since buses, streetcars and subway...

They retrieved nine eggs at ER this morning. That is a good amount. Although, our first cycle had 19, second and third had 13 and our fourth had 9. We were not sure if the reason we only got 9 the last time was due to the type of cycle we did. But this time we got 9 and used the same protocol as our first cycle (we actually increased the Gonal-F half way through). Both RE's told us we may get...1 Recommendation21 Comments

Some of you may of seen my post about getting a call from the nurse telling me our transfer is tomorrow instead of Saturday. I was not happy at all since I knew they would only do that if we had few or poor embryos.
Well, the doctor called me back. As we were talking her computer crashed. But before it did she said we had 5 good embryos that were not multinucleated and were grade A or B as ...1 Recommendation23 Comments -
Our children are back in me where they can grow for the next 9 months! ET went well and I did acupuncture a few hours later. We transferred three embryos:
2 were 8 cell, Grade A, Fair
1 was 8 cell, Grade B, Fair
I go in on the 17th for my beta test. Snuggle in my sweet little ones, snuggle in!!!1 Recommendation30 Comments -
OMG, I can't believe it!! We got home from work and I was opening a letter from our RE and expecting it to be a bill. Instead it was a letter stating that two of our embryos (the only two left) were cryopreserved! I am in SHOCK! Four IVF cycles before this with far more embryos and none made it to freeze. This cycle we had the least amount of embryos, had to move our 5 day transfer to a 3 day...1 Recommendation25 Comments

I am sorry to tell you ladies but our 5th IVF failed us too. We got another "I am so sorry" call to let us know that once again we will not be having a child. My heart is broken and empty. I have no idea what is going on. I don't know why my body will not allow an embryo to implant and grow. I don't know what we will do next. I just don't know.
What I do know is I need to pla...1 Recommendation53 Comments -
I have been pretty sick for quite awhile now and been out of work. I have had broncitis and larengitis. My son got married in Vegas a couple of weeks ago and it started when I got home.
As anyone who knows me well, knows I have been having alot of problems in my relationship. And to be truly honest, I have been *off the wagon for quite sometime* and it really hasnt helped with the depression and a...1 Recommendation22 Comments -
