I’m so excited, I’m so excited, I’m so scared

by Janet September 6, 2018 No Comments

Finally, we have good news!  After 3 cancelled IVF cycles, I received the green light to start egg retrieval (ER) stimulation medication aka stims! There is excitement because there have been so many delays this year with the cancelled embryo transfers (due to thin lining) and the cyst causing low follicle aka egg recruitment.  There […]

Slow and Steady Wins the Race?

by Janet August 28, 2018 3 Comments

Today I feel like a turtle in a race. The finish line seems to be nowhere in sight but we will persevere until we cross that finish line. I will have a hysteroscopy earlier than expected (Thursday, August 30, 2018) with the lining specialist. This is a minor procedure to take yet another look under […]

The Next Chapter

by Janet August 6, 2018 4 Comments

I have resigned from my job as it had become too much to allow for a work life balance, and the stress was high. Stress in general is not good especially for the IVF process, and we have an egg retrieval coming up. If you have been following our blog, then you know that this […]

Cysty Ho

by Janet June 5, 2018 1 Comment

It’s been some time since I last wrote a post.  I have less time to focus on the blog since I have returned to work in mid-April.  I also changed job roles so I am learning a new event program. A quick update on what’s happening now. The doctor had found a functional cyst, Cysty […]

Keep On, Keepin’ On

by Janet April 10, 2018 5 Comments

Turning the page.  Now that the attempt to transfer the 3rd embryo is behind us momentarily (we have hit pause on that piece), we were encouraged to meet with a new IVF doctor in the area to retrieve more eggs.  We are hopeful we can make more embryos to take the pressure off this last […]

Go to Jail Card

by Janet March 27, 2018 No Comments

Well …. I really don’t know what to say but we had the transfer cancelled yet again (I’ve lost count now, it’s the 4th or 5th cancel).  The second G-CSF wash did not thicken my lining.  The lining looked better in quality (triple stripe) but it didn’t get thicker.  I am pretty much at my […]

When To Call It

by Janet March 23, 2018 No Comments

The G-CSF wash did not help my lining; it actually stayed the same.  I am feeling defeated yet again. That is not what I imagined as I had a “good feeling” or maybe I was trying to be positive.  Next steps, we will try the wash again and have a check up in 2 days. […]
