lilsneezy Sorry that you had to deal with that. They definitely should have given you a heads up so you could have planned what you want to do. FX that you ovulated and the sperm were there waiting!
kariann12 It's such an emotional rollarcoaster when you're doing treatments. I think it's totally normal. Hope you can stay positive and FX for you!
emilie Sorry for the BFN. Hope your SHG goes well!
andrea FX this cycle! I've been doing acupuncture since March and I enjoy it. My cycles were never really crazy but it got me ovulating on CD14 every month. It obviously hasn't gotten me pregnant but I don't want to stop now because it's supposed to boost IVF success rates and we're headed in that direction.
mugster Yea that's crazy how we've all aligned! Glad you had good timing. FX!
I started my Letrozole on Saturday. Since then I've been extremely tired so I'm blaming it on the meds. I'm still waiting to find out if my trigger shot is going to be covered by my insurance, since the pharmacy had to get a pre-authorization. My monitoring appointment is scheduled for Monday so I just hoping everything looks good.

Hi! This will be my last IF check in, because I am KU! IVF #1 was successful. It was a rough trip to get here, including low betas and some bleeding. But I was able to see the heartbeat last week at 6w6d. My EDD is 4/21.
I cannot say thank you enough to you girls. I've not been active here since starting IVF, but I've "known" some of you for years. I'm always rooting for you and wish nothing but the best.
kawaiikitsune, glad this cycle was a bit easier on you. I'm jealous of your laundry skills. Cythe, good luck with this IUI! lilsneezy, that weekend stuff is bs. Hope this is still a good IUI for you. wanderingheart, go super cool lining, go! kariann12, hoping this is the one for you. goldenlove3, hoping this is your IUI too! emilie, sorry for the BFN Andrea, I totally want to try acupuncture too. mugster, glad the anxiety meds are helping. I'm on them too. nerdykitten, fx for a bfp mrsjene, hope the Menopur doesn't burn. @ironegg, congrats! Happy and healthy nine months! dke2010, hope your trigger is covered! juliayadda good luck with your hsg and such! Mine was actually a breeze.
AFM, I'm new here (not GKU, but this checkin). I have a 3.5 year old daughter and have been TFAS now for 18 months to no avail. We just did our testing and are finding the results out today!! I have no idea how to feel except I hope it's something we can fix.
lilsneezy, that's crazy about your RE. My RE was really specific on the fact that I might have to be there on holidays for monitoring appointments depending on how things go. He said "we're always here, there's no hiding!"
wanderingheart, yay for awesome follies!!! #awesomefollies
P&R for me. After being on vacation for a week, work is keeping me busy.
Nothing much going on for us right now, just in a holding pattern until next month when we'll hoping to do something. In other news, we decided we weren't waiting for more pets until we had a kid and went out and got a puppy. She's keeping us busy and keeping our minds off of the fact that we're dealing with IF. Lucy is a 9 week old mini Aussie and has stolen our hearts, along with the cat toys, my shoes, and anything she can get in her mouth. All of my pictures of her are on my phone right now, so I'll have to come back later with some.

kawaiikitsune Glad your period wasn't too rough on you! FX your H's busy season starts soon! @wallflwr926 Glad you got some time in with your H! Cythe Good luck on Friday and Monday! wanderingheart Glad your lining decided to cooperate! FX for you! kariann12 It's so hard staying positive cycle after cycle. FX this is it for you! goldenlove3 I only had one good follicle last cycle too. I told myself that my ovaries put all their effort into one egg instead of splitting it up between 2-3. Obviously no scientific information backing that up, just my train of thought. I was convinced that the clomid wasn't working on me anymore but this cycle I had 3-4 good follicles so I was wrong. FX that one egg does the trick! emilie Sorry about the BFN. Good luck with your SHG! Andrea IF is such an evil bitch. FX for you this cycle! mugster Cycle twins! If you're OOP and this cycle doesn't work out, then I would push for another IUI before jumping into IVF. It can't hurt, right? Just my two cents. I've seriously considered going on some type of anti-anxiety medication because all this IF stuff has me stressed to the max. To the point where I almost can't function. I'm just scared of feeling like a zombie. What kind of meds are you on (if you don't mind me asking)? I've taken Ativan before and it just made me feel dumb and forgetful. And sleepy. nerdykitten FX for an awesome beta!! Keep us updated! madamewaffles FX for FET #2! kaliRN I still feel like the trigger didn't work! I still have lowish temps and absolutely zero post-O symptoms. I wish my RE would confirm ovulation or something. Just going to keep HIO until I know for sure. Good luck with the Menopur! FX it doesn't burn. ****** Yay for awesome vacation sex! Best of luck to you in your TTC journey! @ironegg I hope you have an awesome, uneventful 9 months!! dke2010 Good luck on Monday! FX your trigger shot is covered by your insurance. juliayadda Sorry you go here now This is an amazing group of ladies though! FX for good test results. setsuna17 Welcome! Sorry you go here now. FX for good test results! youdontsay Apparently my RE only works mornings M-F. Pretty sweet gig, if you ask me. We're definitely looking into other options after this. FX your cycle starts soon! piccyami Congrats on the new puppy!! I recently got a kitten and she definitely helped relieve some stress. Can't wait to see some pics of your pup! @bloodyjack87 FX for a strong beta!!
Forgot the QOTW again… I guess I'm pretty good at doing dishes and keeping the sink empty? I'm also, like, the best cat/dog/rat mom.

I'm here too. Embryo transfer on Friday for me.
QOTW: I am the neatest traveler. I actually unpack my suitcase using the hotel room dresser and closet and tidy up every morning after shower. It's just easier to make sure you don't forget anything in the hotel when all your stuff is organized

lilsneezy, I'm taking lexapro (10mg?). I feel good on it, not spacey or sleepy. I did have to slowly build up. I cut the pills in half because I had insomnia at first. Even when I moved up to the full dose two weeks later, I still had trouble sleeping a couple of nights. But now, I seriously feel so much better.

H recently started taking Celexa (pretty much same as Lexapro). He is doing great on it. It makes him a little more sleepy, but not significant enough that it causes any issues.
lilsneezy - I had a terrible time with Ativan as well.

mugster, @wallflwr926 Thanks for the info, ladies. I'm going to ask my doctor about Lexapro and Celexa. If I'm going to continue with treatments then I definitely need something to take the edge off or I'm going to lose my mind.

{Beta results, click here to see more.}8dp5dt and my beta came back at 151 so I am pregnant. I have two more betas on Friday and Monday to make sure my levels keep rising. I would like to stick around until after those beta results if you all will still have me.
