I got the call from my nurse that tonight will be my last birth control pill! My medications will be delivered to my house tomorrow (all 9 prescriptions). I go on Saturday for bw and u/s and if all my levels are good, I start injections that night! DH will start his anti-biotics that night too!

I am doing 300 units of Follistim and 150 units of Menapur at first. Then we'll add in Ganerelix to prevent early ovulation if we need to let the follicles grow more. The nurse said I should be on those meds for 7-10 days. The big HCG shot comes and then retrieval one day the week of Jan 23! I should find out if IVF helps me become pregnant the week of Feb 6th (that's my own prediction, not from the RE)!

How long did you stay on your progesterone IM shots after a confirmed BFP from IVF?

I'm so excited & a little nervous, but I'm staying all positive in 2012!

I'm so excited for you!! Hooray for progress and starting your BFP cycle

Most of the time the IM PIO shots will be done daily until you are 12 weeks pregnant.

Mandy I am so excited for you! I have been lurking a bit but must have missed where you were moving on to IVF. My fingers are crossed for you and I hope you see that BFP soon!
