I got pregnant with twins on my first IVF cycle. Tried for three years (6 rounds Clomid, 4 failed IUIs with Letrozole and HCG trigger, 1 miscarriage). Got preggo in first IVF with FET. I was on 225 of Gonal-F and Cetrotide and a Lupron trigger. Had to Lupron, Vivelle patches, and PIO shots for my FET. Retrieval wasn't bad though I will warn you that the pain is worst about day three after the retrieval. I was not warned that it would get worse before it started to get better and ended up calling the doctor thinking something was wrong and it turned out that was normal. Usually Advil does the trick and if you are doing an FET you can take Advil because you have a little break. If you are not doing an FET then you can only take Tylenol. Advil can interfere with implantation. Think happy thoughts! Baby dust to all. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Good luck!!!
1st IVF cycle! Started my STIMs today (Jan 28). Anyone else in the same boat?
My husband and I are both 30. We have been TTC baby #1 for a year and a half. 1 failed Clomid IUI cycle. We are hoping this IVF cycle works. My doctor put me on BCPs two weeks ago. I started STIMs (Follistim and Menopur) today and ER is currently scheduled for the week of Feb 6. Good vibes and baby dust to all!!
