Happy New years all!!
So yesterday, I had my follow up appointment to do blood work and intralipid. Intralipid took over an hour to finish, which is a long time. Nurse told me before it should be an hour. My blood work was good; beta was over 5000. Continue reading
I know I haven’t updated since I got my results on Friday, I just can’t believe the news still.
I’m still very worried since I don’t have any sort of symptoms but I am pregnant.
The nurse told me my pregnancy beta levels were 300. She said its very good but I am on vacation and I don’t feel anything I’m getting a little worry.
Maybe it’s just all in my head since I had a chemical pregnancy before and I’m scared to loss it but I am completely on alert. Continue reading
I don’t know what’s going on with me. I am becoming extremely emotional and I didn’t think that would happen this cycle. I was on such positive note the whole way during the 3rd one. Now out of nowhere I’m not sleeping well and crying because I forgot to take my prenatal. I know it’s the holiday season and I should be very happy. I should also think positive because I could have the most amazing news in few days. I think this whole thing of not having cramps for one day; well now two is making me worried that something happened.
My husband thinks I lost my mind today for no reason. I think I need to speed up the days already. Continue reading
I know I haven’t updated in awhile I just been waiting and waiting in the most relax way possible.
Let me give you my latest update on what’s been going on. I had my Intralipid Therapy on December 5th and it was awful; not the whole treatment the actual experience. My appointment was at 1 pm that I wasn’t very pleased about. Since I would have to miss most day of work. It wasn’t such a big deal; nevertheless, it’s my own principle. I figured perhaps I could leave work a bit earlier so I could come back sooner. With the crazy traffic I end up arriving only 15 minutes before, which really is on time.
As I am in the room the nurse arrives, being kind as always. Goes to me do you have your Intralipid Therapy? I was extremely puzzled and ask. What? Don’t you have it? She answers. No, you should have received a prescription for it. Prescription? I haven’t received anything. All of my prescriptions are delivered to my house and I’m 100% sure it was not in the bag. As she viewed my chart she noticed that the other nurse whom I saw a last week never placed the order. I was completely disappointed, angry, and frustrated. As we all know receiving prescriptions for fertility medicine isn’t like going to CVS or Walgreens. You need a special pharmacy or have it ordered by mail. Continue reading
I’m sorry I haven’t posted in a week since it was thanksgiving I was away to see my family. I hope everyone had an incredible Thanksgiving Day.
Just to give you my latest update.
I am doing great, feel amazing and positive just the way I wanted my 3rd IVF cycle to go, so far so go. As of today, I am on my vitamins, Lupron, and 4 miniville patches. Continue reading
Here is step by step how my injection is done in the morning.
Step 1:
Please make sure your hands are washed before starting.
My 3rd IVF cycle is right around the corner. Time will fly so fast that I will be lying in the transfer room ready to go. However, before it happens I want to enjoy my journey. Sounds odd right? Who wants to enjoy a journey of medicine and shot on top of shot daily? Well I do since I did both; fresh and frozen I know what I will be going through. I feel very positive about this one that I will not accept negative energy around me. Positive is key to my success and I am very confident so I have the key in my hands, which I won’t, let go.
Today I had my nurse consul in regards to our next transfer.
I got the calendar with all my instructions and for some good damn reason I feel so promising about it this time. I am on a positive road and I want to stay on it my whole journey during my 3rd cycle.
To give you a breakdown what will happen this time. As you know I am on birth control, which I was advised by the nurse that I would be only on it for 21 days vs. complete 28. I asked her why so short? She told me that’s how it work’s when we do IVF. I will start Lupron on Nov 13th, which will be 17 days in to my cycle. On Nov 20th will be my last day of my birth control, which I mentioned earlier.
Expect period around the 22nd of Nov. Nevertheless, I am a bit worried that it might come later since with the treatment it has been delayed a bit. However, the nurse told me most likely it wont. Few days after my period I have an appointment for baseline ultrasound and blood work. Continue reading
Here is the update from yesterday’s appointment with my RE. We went over all of our results, which weren’t as bad as I made it out to be. Our genetics were both good, which was a big thing. Then as you know my NK cells were high, therefore, he would like that I do intralipid one week before my transfer, which should happen around the first week of December since we are skipping this cycle.
