IVF #2 update 5

I went for a count today.
We have 4 on the left and 4 on the right. They think I might have one in the cyst on my left side but they arnt counting it just in case the Dr doesnt use it. I also have a small one the didnt count either. My estrogen went from a 44 to a 241 from Sunday. The nurse said this is good. My lining is 5.5, a little on the thiner side but she said it was double lining which they look for...i have never heard of that before? hmmmm

The said that they are working to get my follies nice and plump and ready....they didnt care about the cyst...so yay!!!

Still is looking like Monday for retreval.

IVF #2 update 4

We went to the Dr today for our first follicle count...The nurse was a girl that I have spoken too 125478548 times but never have met face to face, so it was overdue that I meet her. It was nice, she was nice. So she goes in and she is ever so gentle which I wont lie, I REALLY liked, but she came across my cyst and she was taken back by it soooo much. I might as well not had anymore follicles because she couldnt look past my cyst. I have 5 follicles on the right side. I only have 2 and a cyst on the other side. And if my husband didnt point out the two on the left side, she wouldnt have counted them. So she tells me that they may cancel my cycle. This is not good, she says. I tell her REPEATEDLY that the Dr saw the cyst the other day and told me he wanted me to stim anyway. I then asked, is it alot bigger? So when we went to the counter to look at the computer to compare last time to this and she confirmed that it wasnt bigger at all. I explained that although it is nice to only pay 452.00 per month for cobra instead of the 20k for out of pocket, paying the cobra is tough seeing how i dont have a job right now. She is like, you want to get pregnant right? Im like yes, obviously that is what I want very badly, but I just dont to forgo this cycle unless the Dr feels that I truly should. ( I didnt understand how if the cyst was no bigger from when the Dr saw it, why should we forgo?)
She told me that the Dr would review my chart and they would call me.

Lovey and I went to breakfast and I tried to not be worried. I truly am.

The nurse called and told me that I have to up my meds to 300IU if follistem and 300IU of menopur. This is 4 vials of menopur compared to the one last time. I dont even have enough meds to make it through tomorrow night. So I have to go get meds tomorrow. I wont lie, I am stressing or just moody. Either arnt fun.

Lovey is making one of my favorite dinners tonight, so YaY for that.

IVF #2 update 3

Today I went to the Dr.

He told me I have a cyst. One that he thought was a follicular cyst last time. He thinks it could be this or Endo that has flared up from the meds. He gave me 3 options.
A. Do another month of pills
B. Have surgery to remove it
C. Stim anyway

I said I would like to stim anyway. He agreed that this was a very good option. It has gotten smaller since my last ultrasound. He said that if my blooodwork came back good this afternoon then we are all systems go for launch on Thursday. Well they just called and Im all systems GO!!!! So Thursday I start 300IU follistim and I go to my first monitor on Sunday am.

We just got back from our yearly vacation at the lake. It was alot of fun! i took almost 800 pictures in 4 days..... Here is one of them:)

IVF #2 update 2

I went to the Dr. on Monday. My last BC pill is Sunday. My ultrasound to get this second party started is Tuesday. We go on vacation this weekend starting tomorrow to Sun....Its gonna be some gooooooood times.

I have had some on and off spotting and the Dr said its no big deal. I have also had alot more moodiness this time...which is no fun. My husband hasn't noticed but I have. I don't like my dog very much right now and I usually have more patience with her. Nope, all gone. The Dr told me to give myself a break. 2 months of hormones will do it to anyone. But I told her Im not even on shots yet. She laughed and told me to relax. And they told me I can have champagne/wine at the lake. But only one cup of caffeine and no splenda...Alcohol but no diet products or coffee...nice?????

the schedule for right now is...Antagonist protocol
Follistim
Baby aspirin
Menopur
Ganirelix

Shots Wednesday
ER Aug 3
ET Aug 8
Beta Aug 17

I had my first dream the other day that I had a baby. She was a little girl. I had to ask Lovey if we were still naming her grace because it had been so long since we started trying and he said yes...so we had a little Gracie. Usually my dreams consist of me being pregnant then at 7 months they say there is no baby in there, or I go to deliver and there is no baby. Now we had a little girl.

My life is in the Lords hands. Please pray for me:)

my Dads wife is still not talking to us. I found out that she told all of the Malaysian company that me and my brother quit, that she didn't let us go. BTW as of today she has not let anyone else go. Sweet.

Happy 4th

I hope everyone had a Happy 4th! It didnt rain so it was nice. A little muddy, but was nicer than raining and muddy like the previous years....

Dad played and we hung with friends and I took WAY toooo many pictures. It is nice to have my camera back. I played with it a lot yesterday. Im getting used to it more and more.
