Checking in 12/17

[Jalapeñomel]

I got my ERA results and I need 1 more day of progesterone. I’m starting to get nervous for my January transfer.

Jalapeñomel, good luck! When is transfer?

I'm trying to transfer but I can't get my lining to be triple striped. I'm at the right thickness (8.9). It was going to be 12/22 however now I'm going back on 12/21 for another scan and if it looks good then we'll transfer the 29. If not I have to make the decision to cancel or transfer. I did do another intralipids infusion this morning so I'm waiting for the onset headache to start.

I hope all goes smoothly. My RI recommends lots of fluids and Bai drink for electrolytes after IVIG to prevent headache. Worth trying if you can- I hope you can avoid the headache!

Jalapeñomel, hope that extra day of progesterone is just what you need!

I started a period last week but hcg was still 3.6 😒 And then 2.6 a few days later. So rechecking tomorrow and if it's finally negative I will do a priming cycle, then start a retrieval cycle next month. Didn't do a priming cycle last time but I'm down for whatever as long as we keep moving.

Looks like a lot of January transfers!


I should get my period on 12/27, so I’ll
Start my cycle then. That’ll put my transfer at 1/16.

Of course my hcg is 1.6 this morning. Needs to be less than 1.2. So annoying how it apparently decreases at a slower rate once it gets this close to zero. Like, does it ever hit zero, or is this a "the limit does not exist" situation?? UGH. Will recheck later this week I guess. To clarify, I'll be doing another egg retrieval next, so maybe a transfer in late Feb or in March at the earliest I think.

That is annoying! Well best of luck on your retrievals. I think they were more stressful probably because I got such crappy results.
