I am devestated for you. But better now then after ER to find out nothing matured. the tigger really causes bloating and alot of discomfort. Enjoy your month off and then mid march April will be here in no time. We are always here for u

Hi All,
I had my u/s yesterday and my RE saw growth in only 3 of the follicles. I must say that I was quite disappointed. This was a conversation I had not anticipated. He recommended that we halt our meds and retry after one month with a different protocol, rather than proceed with the ER. I am very disappointed . Needless to say, yesterday was a very emotional day  . My RE doesn't believe that the odds for success are in our favor with the current crop of follicles. So, my DH and I have agreed that we will take the RE's advice and wait on our next protocol. He wants us to wait one month, to allow my body to rest. This is truly a test of my faith, but I will not allow this minor set back to discourage me.

I'm on a 10 day cycle. I have my 2nd u/s tomorrow morning and 3rd u/s on Friday.  If all goes according to schedule, the ER would be Monday and ET will be 3 to 5 days after that.

Hi Everyone!
This is my first IVF cycle.  I am on day 5 of my injectables.  I went to my RE this morning for u/s and he saw growth in 3 of the 15 follicles identified during the baseline u/s.  Such a low number, but I'm optimistic.  He decided to increase my dosage to get more stimulation. I have a follow up u/s on Wednesday.  I hope to see more growth.
