Re: Embryo Report

I only had 3 go to PGD and still made it to transfer.  I think you're doing just fine!  Hang in there! [hearts]

Re: POLL: For those of you who had BFP's.........(HT only)

My understand is that HMG is exactly the same as Menopur, just the generic form.  HMG = BFN for me.

Re: Dr. Potter --- your opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Bumping and hoping Dr. Potter sees this soon....we're looking to cycle again and I'd love his opinion! [;)]

Re: Did you use all of your meds?

I had no stims left over - in fact, I had to get some from my clinic to get through the last 2 days!

Re: No update today. Update: BFN

Oh, Grits...this was so not the update I was hoping to read tonight.  I've been out and about all day and just now sat down, hoping to see good news from you.  I'm so sorry, hon.  It blows and you totally and completely deserve to drown yourself in a nice big bottle of wine for sure.  I'm just a PM away if you need to talk to someone who's been there all too recently.  Han...

Re: hhhhmmm, will she turn?

I absolutely think she has time to turn.  My sister-in-law went in for an ECV with my niece at 38 weeks and ended up finding out she was head down right as they were about to start! [:)]  Here's hoping she turns for you!!! [glc]

Re: POAS

I never doubted for a moment that you'd see a BFP with your age and rockin' embies on your side!!! So happy for you! [hc]

Re: No Heartbeat. Embryo stopped growing :(

[quote user="AMandN"] [quote user="nuthinbutpink"] I am so so sorry. I imagine this is much worse than a BFN. Just devestating.  [/quote]  Yes, I was thinking that too. Worse than a BFN because it felt within reach with a BFP for these weeks. [/quote] Yes, 1000 times worse than a BFN.  I can't imagine.  I am so, so sorry. [:(]

Re: Intuition 100%

Oh, Grits. (((HUGS)))  I agree that you shouldn't give up completely but I also agree that when you know, you KNOW.  Everyone kept telling me not to give up hope (my mom & DH namely) and I just knew.  Unfortunately, I was right...but I so hope you are wrong!  [pray]

Losing weight before cycling in Oct - okay or no?

So...I didn't gain a pound from cycling itself...actually lost a few BUT I've put on almost 10 lb since my BFN. I'm guessing I'm more of a comfort eater than I thought and the fact that I stopped working out when I started stims and haven't resumed isn't helping. SIGH. So...this puts me at TWENTY pounds heavier than I'd like to be (okay, really 30 but that's unrealistic...I'd be back at my high...

Re: High tech successes with nurseries done...can I see your DG baby's room?

My DH vetoes lots of things like that too....but I do it anyway and he ends up loving it.  Just a thought. [:D]

Re: High tech successes with nurseries done...can I see your DG baby's room?

Well, I'll definitely be reusing DS2's bedding. I bought it from BabyBox and it is still in pristine condition and I just lurve it. It was insanely expensive, so I really, really *need* to reuse it LOL. They no longer carry it and neither does PoshTots, but I found a Google link to the - GASP - clearanced out set from PoshTots. It's at the bottom of this post (you can see it some in the pix belo...

[quote user="Twoboysandcounting"] There's a whole forum on nurseries!  Just scroll down a bit - can't remember where it is exactly.  One of the twim moms had one in her blog that was beutiful - minime or thinkpink.

Re: Let's Make Nice

First of all, good luck with your upcoming cycle!!! [hearts] To answer your questions: 1.  I'm going to this extreme because I don't ever want to experience the severe GD I had while I was pregnant with my youngest son ever again.  It was a horrible, horrible time for me and for my husband as well. [:(]  My husband only wanted 2 children MAX...we can't just keep going and going u...

Re: Higher dose HMG??? Now what Protocol!?!?

Don't hate me for this, HP...but I'm going to respectfully disagree with you on this one.  Dr. Lin doesn't seem very firm in his recommendations at all to me....he actually seems to have a very cavalier attitude about what is best for your cycle.  I'm getting a bunch of "either way", "we can do whatever you'd prefer", "X could be better...or Y could be better...but sometimes Z wor...

[quote user="molerwantpnk"]   Precisely!!![/quote]I am having the EXACT same issue. He gave me a few different options for my next cycle and basically said it is up to me. Umm --- WTF???

Heck no you shouldn't take it down because of one meanie. People can be so cruel. [:(]

Re: Higher dose HMG???

[quote user="molerwantpnk"] I can't seem to find any results/studies anywhere for the outcome of higher HMG doses. I asked Dr Lin and he said I could go higher with very little chance of OHSS as my FSH is 11. I was on 6 ampules 75 IU per day and produced 13 mature eggs. resulting finally in 3 normals. I am just not sure if I need to go up to the higher dose, he's saying maybe try 10 ampules divi...
