My OB appt to discuss interventions was supposed to be tomorrow and got cancelled due to the hurricane. It's now Sept 11. I O'd today I think. Timing is good so maybe there will be a miracle.

Thanks, westiemom, for the check in! Sorry to hear about the hurricane messing with your scheduling

**tw: loss, BFP**


I am still pregnant. 5w today. I am not sure it's really hit home for me yet, or at least I'm not letting myself think about it often. I do check for blood every time I use the bathroom. I just don't feel ready to join PAIF or PGAL - I hope you all are ok if I hang out here a little longer. I am hoping things get better once I get past the 6w mark, which is when I had my m/c, or at least after our first u/s if we see a good heart beat. That's not scheduled until Sept 8. We started back to classes today so that helped distract me at least. And I think both of my classes went well so that was fun!

westiemom I was thinking about you this weekend since you're farther south than I am. I'm sorry Harvey messed with your appointment. We finally saw sun today, this is just insanity.

DrHooch stay as long as you like! I would say I hope the anxiety goes away, but I know it won't with a IF/PGAL brain. I hope it gets better.

I had to go in for methotrexate injections Friday afternoon. I had a few side effects, but I'm doing good today. RE said I would've been 7w5d which has screwed with my head. But he said once this is over, I only need to have one cycle before trying again. At this point, I don't know what I want to do.

[DrHooch]

Ugh, I'm sorry mnj05.

[scrang]

mnj05, So sorry you're dealing with this.

[scrang]

I'm in the middle of my mock cycle and things seem to be going ok. The Lupron isn't too bad but I've been breaking out and having night sweats, nice. This Friday is my lining check and FX all the meds have surpressed my ovaries!

[westiemom]

DrHooch hang out as long as you would like! Keeping all things crossed!

mnj05 this has been so sad. Thankfully, our home is fine. I'm glad you are doing ok after injections. Huge hugs.

scrang I'm glad all is going well!

[baymare]

westiemom Fingers crossed for a miracle! Sorry your appointment got rescheduled, waiting is so annoying.

DrHooch Stay as long as you want! Part of me still didn't believe I was having a baby when I was 9 months pregnant. Just take it one day at a time.

mnj05 I am so sorry you are going through this. I don't think I would know what to do right away either.

scrang So exciting! Hope your lining check went well!

We had our follow up with the RE about our pre-testing this week. Somehow the lab messed up and didn't do my AMH level, so I had to get that drawn yesterday. We went over the protocol we will probably use, and I was pleased that it addresses both problems from our first two cycles. Now to work with them on writing a letter detailing costs so my employer can decide if I can take a loan from my retirement account to pay for the IVF. Grr.

[DrHooch]

baymare that is so frustrating. I hope they don't give you any problems over it.
