TTC History and current status
Trying since Jan 2004 when I was 33. I have one Daughter who is 2. Trying for another baby for over a year. One m.c and 2 IVF's later we are preparing for IVF#3 with Donor eggs. . I am 38.
Diagnosis= unexplained..but what that really means is poor egg quality.
FSH
April 2008: 11.8
March 2008: 10.7
November 2007: 6
November 2004: 3.9
Considered a poor responder but I have gotten OHSS on inject/iui cycles. Go figure!
____________________________________________
IVF #3. Donor eggs. Success. Healthy baby girl born Aug 19, 2009. 7 frozen blasts.
IVF #2no BCP...Antagonist protocol with a little estrogen priming . Gonal-f and Menopur. Maximum medication. 7 egg retrieved. 5 mature. 6 fertalized. ET 3 embys: 2-8celled, 1-6 cell. BFN
IVF #1 April/May 08 On max meds...produced 4 mature eggs and a bunch of smaller ones which did not grow fast enough..2 survived to ET (1-8 celled, 1-5celled)...BFN.
Oct 07-Jan 08- 4 iui's on lots of Gonal-F. Most times I had 3-4 mature follicles..BFN. Oh and I got OHSS twice.
April 07- Inject /iui BFP! Not to last very long. At 7 week u/s we were measuring behind. HCG not doubling as it should Waited for over a month to m/c naturally. Had to wait most of the summer for HCG to go down. Increased my wine intake from "moderate" to "heavy". I don't want to complain about that Summer but let's just say I wont be making any custom T-shirts with Summer 2007! emblazoned on them.
March 07- 1st inject/iui for baby #2. BFN
Feb 07- Stopped breast feeding to start trying for baby #2. I loved breastfeeding and hated to stop but I felt I needed to get a move on with baby #2.

Jan 04-Jan 05- Natural cycles with Charting..actual sex

You need to check out http://betabase.info/
That's the best site I've seen. And yes,those numbers look great!
Yea! Those #'s look great!
I commented to you on my blog...not really that smart :)
I think I am having some symptoms, but I'm not sure.
I am sooooooo tired and I am very, very hot. Everyone is walking around with a coat and I have on short sleeves. I also have this weird thing where I cannot focus my eyes. Although, I think that may be a byproduct of the PIO. I think that I read that this could be a side affect.
But enough about me...any symptoms for you?
YAY for awesome numbers!!!!!!!!!!
Looking good!
Excellent! Congrats!!
Yay! Those are great numbers!
Brilliant numbers that are moving in the right direction.

Awwww crap. I'll have to look up the site you got that chart from and add it to my montage of sites to obsess over during my 2ww!
And yes, like DE Mommy said, betabase is great.
