IVF Journal

Hi everyone,

I'm new here to the LI Families chat although I've been reading your posts for the last week. In 2005 I had my son after several attempts with clomid and IUI's. Since last October I've had 3 IUI's each resulting in a pregnancy and miscarriage. Now we have moved to IVF. I'm hoping that this works!

On Wednesday I started Follistum and tomorrow I go in for BW and Sono.....I have no idea what happens after that as this is all new to me.

I look forward to going on this baby making journey with all of you. Good luck to everyone.Chat Icon

********************************************

8/9/09 - I went to the doctor yesterday and the sono showed no action so they called me yesterday afternoon and increased my follistum to 200 instead of 175. I return tomorrow morning for more bw and a sono. Hopefully there is some action!

8/10/09 - Had a sono and bw today and they saw 4 small eggs. They increased my Follistum to 250 for the next 2 days. I guess they are trying to figure out how much of the meds its going to take to get my ovaries producing. I go back Wednesday for another sono and bw.

I guess everyone is different when it comes to the meds but I wonder when the retrieval will be.

8/12/09 - Another sono and bw today, they saw a few 10's and 15's so everything is looking good....but now I need to do the Garanex (sp?) shot to keep from surging and continue the follistim at 250. I have another appointment tomorrow.

8/13/09 - I had to take my Garanex at 6 this morning before DH left....I don't really want to give myself the shots. I had a sono and bw this morning and the eggs are growing with the biggest a little over 16, some 15's and some 11's and 10's, I don't know how many there are altogether though. They took my blood pressure this morning it was a little high but that's probably nerves. I asked the NP when she thought I would be going for the retrieval and she said Monday or Tuesday which is better for us since my son will be in camp and I won't have to try and find someone to watch him. Anyway, I have to continue on the follistim at night and the Garanex shots in the am and the NP said I will now be going to the office everyday until retrieval. Until tomorrow.........
