i think i will do a hpt..but only the day before
Hello- I'm new to this site.. We are doing IVF for the first time in Sept.
I'm 31 DH 49,DD 6yrs. I had my egg retrieval 9/22. i had 7 follicles, ended up gettiing 8 eggs.
Heard from Dr.7 fertilised. 5/5 ICSI & 2/3 IVF. now just waiting to hear if we do a Day 3 or day 5 transfer.I start the crinone tomorrow..bit aprehensive.
9/25 - Well, we ended up doing a day 3 (8cell) embryo transfer...but i have contracted OHSS...oh so painfull & uncomfortable! I'm just starting to be able to go back to work (i only work in an office) today 5 days later. Having to inject myself with Clexane every day..not nice! also persist with the Crinone not to mention having to take 2 little white pills with food morning and night (pregnislone?). Anyway, countdown til testing day.8th Oct. Fingers crossed!
thanks for reading- I don't have really anyone to talk to about this since no one I personally know understands or has gone through this before...
Keep you all posted! .
Hi Chrissy,
I am in the same boat. My beta is scheduled for the 11th of October. all of our failed IVF attempts amplifies the long wait and i know how you feel. every little thing i am analysing hoping that it may be a sign!
Good luck and yes, i will probably get tempted to do a home preg test next week before my beta.
congrats to the BFP's!! i am 3dp5dt today and am really not liking this long wait until my beta on 10/4. had the transfer on saturday (which was our 6 year wedding anniversary!) and we transferred 2 great embyos. all went well and had my bed rest. the lab called yesterday and 2 others made it to freeze, so we were very happy.
so, now i wait and am so glad i have you all to wait with :) of course i am taking every symptom i am having and magnifying it times 100. been crampy the last few days- so we will see what happens.
anyone going to test at home prior to their BETA?
Im really good, today im 12 WKS and im so happy! I feel like im dreaming. You have seen all I have been through and to know Its finally happening.. Its just a blessing!
To all-
Things I did different for my succesful ivf cycle-
1- Acupunture
2- Drank lots of water
3- Took femara & Estradiol from the day I started B/C until baby was seen on u/s.
Hope this helps.. Good luck to everyone and SSBD!!
Hi, everyone, i just joined this website yesterday... i'm doing my transfer this saturday oct2. This would be my second attempt....a little excited and a little nervous:) my endometrium is a little thinner than it should be at the moment (7mm).. still under medication, hoping that it would be thickened some more in next a few days. Good luck to everyone...
