I have been a member of DS for since 2005 and trying for 5 years. I just started my BCP on wednesday and really need a IVF buddy. I have been struggling with the some things and here they are!
*It seems like I am in emotional about this actually happening for me! I cry because I can't believe it! BUT when I hear about my 19 year old cousin pregnant with her 3rd baby I am quite pissed!! I am working and saving and paying thousands to have my first and she just breathes and gets pregnant! I struggle with the resentment that I have to go through all of this and some people don't! Lately I have really been feeling anger over this instead of being happy that I can potentially be pregnant next month! I have had 2 IVF cycles cancelled one due to high prolactin and one due to the money fallen through. THis cycle seems a go, we have the money, the meds are ordered! Please give me some encouragment to let go of this journey and embrace a potentially new one!

There's also a group called "Mommies to be 2010" that's for everyone doing IVF this calendar year. Most of us belong to that group too, plus whatever specific month. The mommies to be group can be found by following the link under the message "RU doing IVF in 2010" under the IVF basics chat board.
Good luck!
Right now I think I have a mild case of OHSS from all the stimulation. It's keeping me up at night and all day long I lay around. I tried to go to Target but it just wore me out.
Good luck with the IVF!!!!!
