Hi everyone,
I am brand new here and this is my very first post. I am 42, 43 in May and my life recently started over when I got remarried 5.5 yrs ago. I just finished 5 days of femara + 6 days of 75 IU of Follistim. We were supposed to have IUI tomorrow a.m. but only had one "good" follicle so the doc thought it was best to blow off the IUI and just have timed intercouse since we are 100% out of pocket and already have one failed IUI (clomid only). So we bd this morning at 12 hrs post Ovidrel and then again in the morning at 36 hrs. Any success stories with the Femara/Follistim/Ovidrel protocol?
This is the LONGEST 2 week wait!
Baby dust to all and thanks for any advice/input!

Dana,
I wish you the best of luck, one good follie is all you need. I will pray for you in your two week wait.
Tracie - Hopefully the tests are wrong and not sensitive enough and your blood work will show something different. Try and stay positive, I know it is hard to do everytime.
Marina - My ob/gyn is also a specialist in fertility and has a degree in it, so I have some faith in him. If I don't see the results I am looking for in 3 months then I will find a RE and try to afford it some how. So far no O showing up on the opks, so I think I will stop testing with them so I don't waste anymore. I will go in for blood work Friday am, beta and estradiol tests. Oh boy...
Thanks for eveyone's support and comments. This board is the best.
Baby dust to everyone....
Gloria

Hi everyone,
I only joined the forum today after reading some of your posts and identifying with what many of you are going through. I am a newbie having had my 1st IVF transfer on 24/02. I have 4 days to go before my Beta...i am so nervous...i have been reading everything i can find on the internet to see if i have any symptoms that can tell me whether we are gonna have a BFN or BFP...i have also been praying like i never prayed before and my husband and i have been talking to our embies...i know this is probabaly nuts but it cant hurt right? Anyway, i havent had many symptoms over the last few days...mild twinges around the ovaries and in the general pelvic area and slightly sore BBs. Right after ER I had severe cramping but that has passsed. No spotting, at least not yet so i dont know if that means implantation has not taken place...any thoughts?
anxious and hopeful,
RB

Hi Girls
Just a quick one as Im not feeling very good right now but just wanted to say we got a BFN yesterday on Beta and am now looking at possible immunolgy testing. We got 8 good frozen blasties but for some reason no luck so want to look at any other avenues before I waste anymore.
Just want to say thankyou all for your support and good luck with your BFPs and pregnancies

Hey ladies! I haven't posted in a while, but here's my story: trying for #2 for 18 months...
11/07: clomid 50mg + IUI= bfn
03/08 (new RE, much better!): clomid 100mg + HCG trigger + IUI= 
I had the IUI today, a progesterone test next Thurs., and a preg test in 2 weeks!
I had 4 good follies, 3 which were definitely big enough for the trigger shot! Finger crossed and lots of prayers! I wich you all luck and patience during this LONG wait!

Hi Gigi
I have done 14 transfers all IVF/FETS some with donors
I have always used prog but have never felt sick
Sound promising and mild cramps could be implantation
How many embies did you put in and what cell were
they
Good luck to you and other in the 2ww

Sorry ladies I am still down a computer and only am getting out of the house one Sundays and Tuesdays...We have my sonogram and dr followup on Tuesday...Last week I had started to dilate and was at least a centimeter...My cervix is thinning on a daily basis and he is certainly putting much pressure down there...The days are getting longer for me and we will certainly be talking inducment at my doctor's visit in a couple days...I miss being here with you all each day and I hate having to play catch up once a week...It is so much to catch up on by the time I am on and able to write...Is there any other new preggo's or people on the 2 week wait...I will be back on in a couple days...Talk to you all then...The doctor is expecting Gabriel to be weighing in at 8 pounds or more come Tuesday and I will be 38 weeks at that point...He is certainly a big boy....Talk to you all in a couple days

Best Wishes,
Jenny
