Good Luck Lisa!!
It was so special. I never expected I'd get to share doing this process with anyone.
Tx- let me know how yours goes.
Kisses
Tx- you make me laugh so hard!
We'll all be old pros at injections once this journey is over.
I took at test at lunch today and it's not looking good. I had to pee so much since yesterday I was convinced it worked, but today's test is negative. So depressed. Tomorrow is the real deal and I don't know how much might change. As of right now we don't have the money to try again but we are talking austerity measures to come up with funds to give it another go. I don't know if the wife will give up the tv bill and the steak dinners to have a baby since she won't even share her uterus. We'll see. She has until Wednesday to decide. Maybe longer depending on how long AF holds off.
Moonlit good luck and much baby dust babe!!!
Kisses
It's probably the follistim Lisa. That stuff made me feel awful.
I called out of work today. We are reviewing our options but so far they don't look good
How's everyone else doing? Anybody else going into the tww?
I'm trying to eat a lot of carbs and drink tons of water so I don't get any side effects or atleast decrease them. Though I've been peeing every 30 mins.
I go in Thursday for more blood and ultrasound then go in everyday after that till they do the egg retrieval I guess. I start the ganirelix Thursday too.. Smh more damn shots! But so far it really isn't bad.
The nurse said today everything is in my favor with amh, and 23 follies this round. So I'm hoping I'm a one time ivf girl.
Well I'm gonna go back to work now.
Hope everyone is well!

In other news, we are looking into adoption. We tried that route first but there aren't many babies and wifey wants a baby but since that's not happening for us, we inquired about a cute kid and his older sister who shares my love for mac and cheese and nail polish. We'll see if the state will even work with us.
Do carbs work to curb the side effects? Maybe that's what I was doing wrong...
Lisa-how u doing? I just had my mock trial and go for
Ultrasound and bloodwork next week.
Ekkkk hope you are all doing well.
First I found out my prescription insurance will cover the fertility meds. Whew that is a load off. I was beginning to think that this was going to be my last try.
Second, found out that Fairfax is refunding me for the vial last month since it was below standard.
Third, my computer has been acting weird since Saturday, so I called Dell tonight to have them look at it. The tech had control of my screen and I was looking at the files I had saved on my desktop and right there for everyone to see I had a file called "sperm order"......I was mortified. I'm like here this guy is trying to fix my computer and I have this file there on the desktop......LOL
Anyway, I'm off to bed. Talk to everyone later.
Hope you start to feel better Lisa.

Ugh there was a post on there that had a few other specific ones. Hope this helps moon
And Tx- congrats on the low cost meds. It was a huge relief off my shoulders. Okay I gotta hit the bed.

Funny story though, I was sure it was a good possibility that Lisa was sitting across from us. Turns out the ladies name was Shelia (found that out when the Dr. called her back).
There was a couple sitting next to us and the husband kept laying his head on his wife saying he was tired. When she walked off he said with a sheepish grin on his face that they had been there at 7:30 (it's 10 at this point) to which I replied that is WAY to long to wait. He corrected me by saying he came in at 7:30 to do his part and now they were back for her to do hers. He finished by saying, I can say that is not something I have ever done at 7:30 in the morning in my life. We got a good chuckle out of it.
Hopefully the picture uploads. The baby was moving it's numbs and bobbing its head several times during the ultrasound. It was an amazing moment. I cannot wait for each of you to reach that same milestone.
