BrynMawr - those are great numbers! Way to make some eggs :) you should have some extra embies to freeze.

Jat & Lizzy & Original - FET's are so much easier! We have a big group of FET-ers this cycle!

Aboveda, you'll only be a month or so behind us, and I'll be ready to cheer you on!

I had my transfer today (FET). Two blasts came home, and hopefully they decide to snuggle in. I've had one successful IVF and one fail. So I know both sides of this fun. I'm feeling positive. My beta is in two weeks. I hope I can keep positive for the next 14 days!

Thanks BrynMawr! Sounds like you will have a lot!

That would be great, Jat - we could endure the 2ww together!

Hoping everything goes well for you, Aboveda.

Today I had my baseline....again. This time they gave me the go ahead and I am confirmed for Aug. 23! Yay! Feeling so excited and scared all over again!

ginOhio, Good Luck on your 2ww. Stay positive or try to stay distracted, both are hard.

Lizzy, congrats on getting confirmed for your FET. I think we all have that excited scared feeling :-) Hang on!

Hey guys, AF came on the 2nd and my protocol is a long one, I seem to be lloking at much later dates than everone in this group, my RE says I will start injections on the 22nd of August and egg collection isnt expected til the 16th of September, Guess I thought it would be shorter than this, but its surprising how little the actually tell you before the time comes!!

Can anyone tell me anything about Buserelin or Puregon?

GcinOhio - congrats on your transfer!! I hope your 2WW flies by!

Lizzy - yeah FET cycle buddy! I go in Monday for our baseline and started my estrogen cocktail today!! We can definitely go crazy in the 2WW together.

Nedico - glad you got your schedule! I haven't heard of those meds.

Buserelin I've found out is Lupron

Thank you. 11 days to go in 2ww!

Nedico - I wasn't sure about those meds. A long protocol is hard, but September will be here before you know it. I always felt like the time up the 2ww flew and then it went into standstill during the 2ww.

Good luck to everyone! :)

Nedico- I took Lupron it was not that bad for me. I didn't have any side effects, but the main complaint I head from people was headaches.

I'm doing an FET this cycle. AF started on 8/3 trying to get my Lupron and dates set up for this cycle. I hate when time just inches by! Looking like mid to late September for transfer. Ready to get this thing started!

ER is for Wed 8/7! I'm excited to get these little eggies out. I feel like an egg incubator.

Gcinohio, good luck in your 2ww!

Good Luck Ladies!

BrynMawr - Yeah!!! That's so exciting :) So you are looking at a transer this weekend or early next week, right. WHOOOOHOO!! I can't wait to hear your fert report :)

How exciting, Bryn! Looking forward to hearing your news tomorrow!

BrynMawr - good luck with your retrieval tomorrow!!

ER today, and they retrieved 25 eggs!!
We had problems with our first IVF, only 20% of the eggs were mature so they delayed ER this time to allow them extra time to mature. I naturally ovulate on CD 17, so apparently my eggs need extra time to mature. They are doing the ICSI today and we will get the fertilization report tomorrow. I'm excited and nervous.

Thanks for the support ladies!! I couldn't have done this without your kind words.

HOLY COW - 25 eggs! Thats amazing. Congrats. Keep us posted on the fert report.

Yes - nice job BrynMawr! Excited to hear about your fert report! Hope you are doing well! Rest up!
