I'm day 6 and my ovaries hurt.

Jen: looks like we're on the same stim day! Do you have a retrieval date yet?

I'm on 300 Gonal F and 2 powders of Menopur. I'm on day 4 ;)

Putting two back is a really good decision. I hope you end up with two because your dream would come true and then you wouldn't have to worry about this anymore.

One would figure if there's a lot of money involved to pay for this process we should have a say in how many we want placed back lol.

How are you doing otherwise?

I'm thinking about putting in 2. I would feel like it will increase chances also hubby and I don't have any children yet so having 2 would be good so they have a play mate. I only plan to do IVF once so if I can get 2 for 1 that would be awesome ... I'm just so ready to be a mom

Anyone else's retrieval coming up soon?

I plan on 5 day embies.

Are you transferring back 1 or 2? My RE said if they were grade a he only wants one back but I want 2. Then he's like as long as you're ok with twins.

The plan is 3 days how about you ?

Wow! You go girl! Get those embies to grow!

Are you doing a 3 or 5 day transfer?

We can be excited and scared together...lol

I had my first appointment today (day 4 of stims) and looks like there are 10+ on each ovary. They are not huge but are growing. I have another appointment Friday and then they said possibly Saturday. The doc said he only expects me to need to take Gonal f for about 4 more days because I have a few that are already 10mm.

I'm excited and a little nervous too but more excited . I feel like I'll finally be a mom one day !

Yay!! I'm right behind you... Yes this is my very first IVF. I'm a little excited and scared this may work and all those painful months of emptiness will be filled with a new beginning.

Since you started your Gonal F on Saturday, how many appointments have you had so far and has your dr revealed how many follicles you have?

I started my Gonal f on Saturday and my estimated retrieval will be around 8/25ish . Gl !! Is this your first IVF too?
