Well, had all my day 3 stuff done, nurse called and said to start my gonal injections tonight!

I cannot believe I am doing this, it seems so unreal!

Good luck! I'm also on day 3, but we are trying 1 round of IUI first with a combo of Clomid and injectibles. I'm so excited this is working out for you! GL, and I hope you get that BFP!

I'm feeling pretty good. No m/s really, just a little nausea occasionally. I really haven't had many sxs at all. It's good, but still makes me a little nervous as I still haven't heard or seen my bean yet. Hopefully I will be able to hear the h/b at my appt on Dec. 7th! In the mean time, I've been peeing on sticks periodically to make sure I'm still pg! I still had a nice dark line as of yesterday! LOL

How are your shots coming along? Do you know when your egg retrieval will be? I have everything crossed for you!

Sheri, glad to hear that you are still feeling pretty good! I bet you can't wait for the U/S on the 7th! I am sure the baby will be just great!

Thanks for keeping your fingers crossed for me! I really appreciate it! This is our only shot at IVF so I need all the prayers I can get. As for my shots, my stomach is starting to look llike a junkies arms, LOL! but I had 16 follies as of yesterdays u/s and go back tomorrow morning to see how they are doing and if there are more!
I am thinking ER and ET will be next week!

Carrie - GL with everything! I hope you get that BFP, and that you get a bunch of embabies to freeze . . . maybe you can do an FET later, too (for baby #2 . . . or 3).

Hi Sheri,

Just checking in and saw your good news. I think I will be in your shoes pretty soon and I'm glad to hear that the shots aren't so bad.

Carrie, DH and I still need to go over our test results with the RE and I think that whether it is IUI or IVF I will still need to do the shots due to my age.

Wow! look at you guys! we've got all kinds of stuff going on around here! Yup, I'm keeping tabs on you guys! I'm so glad everything is going so well for everyone!

Carrie, 23! what a great # there should definatly be embies for more than one pg!

Veronica- GL with the test results, here's to hoping you can do IUI and soon!

Renee, how are you feeling? I remember this point very well with Kirsten. It was the best part of the pg!

Sheri and Kelly, hoping the 1st tri is going well and you guys don't have to suffer too badly

Kelly, with those #'s I still think there may be 2!
