Wow, you are moving fast! Just think... a week from Saturday, you'll have your babies inside of you :P I haven't started acupuncture yet, I go in on Saturday for an initial consultation. Hopefully she can work on me over the next two weeks. How many sessions are you doing a week? Does your acupuncturist come to your transfer to do it before and after the transfer? The place I'm going to does that but I don't know what to think of that... I'm already going to be nervous/excited/anixous, maybe acupuncture at that time would help. I wouldn't worry about your prolactin level, stay positive! Sending lots of baby dust!
The stimming will be an exciting time! That will keep your mind busy. I was on Follistim, Menopur and Ganirelix. I didn't really have any side effects, just a little sore at the injection site and some minor bruising. I was more tired than normal, but it could've been all the stress and worrying I did. I'm scared of needles so my DH gave me all the shots. We would have a routine where I prepare everything, draw up all the stuff, and clean the site and he would inject. It really made him feel like part of the process. Follistim - stings a little bit when you feel the juice going in
Menopur - my least favorite shot because you have to inject so much, I had to draw water all the way to the 10 and try to get as close to 9/10 to inject
Ganirelix - easiest shot, people say it hurts because it's a prefilled syringe so the needle is more dull but after I iced my stomach, I couldn't feel it go in or the juice either
Good luck! I can't wait to hear about your follies growing! Lots of baby dust to all!
I stopped the bcp yesterday. Now am anxiously waiting for af( aunty flow aka menstrual period) so i can start my stims. This is our cycle and we shall all be very happy with the bfp news at the end of the 2wks wait. Let us keep praying for one another and God will make it happen for us so we can have an 'Easter to Remember'.
Wishing everyone of us a BIG FAT POSTIVE during this March/April/May journey to motherhood! Hugsssss
