You're in my prayers Dobie:hands:

Thanks Kat - I just got off the phone with the nurse. The egg retrieval is this Wed at 9:30am. Then, if we get any viable embryos - that procedure will be Friday morning. I go from being nervous to just crying - I'm so worried that it will end up like last time.

Fill your mind with light, happiness, hope, feelings of security and strength, and soon your life will reflect these qualities.
I found this quote for you!!:hug: Think Positive!!!

Good luck Dobie, my prayers are with you

Like the others said, you can vent here all you like. Hormones can be so hard on us even when we're not pumped up on them like you are right now. We certainly can sympathize with what you're going through. We're praying that all goes well for you and that your dreams come true! (We'll even let you use ALL capital letters if you want to!!!)

Hormones have done crazy things to me as well. I could NOT take a shower without crying for nearly a month when I first started a BC pill 6 months ago. I don't know why the shower was so bad, but I guess it just gave me too much time to think. It was also right after I found out that I might not be able to have children so that had a lot to do with it too I think. My poor hubby had to put up with a crazy emotional wreck for 4 or 5 months until my body adjusted. I think I'm handling it a lot better now though. I don't know how the hormones you are on are, but hopefully you're body will adjust soon as well. Good luck! *hugs*

I hope it works this time. I am sending my prayers up for you.

Oh Dobie,

I'm sending prayers for you and a big hug!

Love ya,

I feel bad finding humor in your side effects! Poor you!

I experience this all the time too, and I'm not on anything!!!:laugh:

Don't feel bad - it's the humor and understanding from other women that is getting me through this!

Dobie, I know it is hard, but Kat is right. You need to relax and have faith. Being stressed can affect the outcome. When we were having so much trouble with infertility, our doctor actually suggested that we needed to consider adoption because once you adopt you relax and pregnancy often occurs. We did not resort to adoption, but you see this so many times. Please try your best to find peace and hope, relax and feel strong.

Dobie, how are you today and how did things go?

Watching for an update Dobie. Here's hoping you get GOOD results.
My prayers and best wishes are with you!

Things went really well today - although I'm still a little groggy. The doctor said the "ideal" retrieval would be 6 eggs and we got 11!!!! I didn't think I heard her right at first. Please continue to pray that the eggs fertilize and we get embryos - if all goes well - the inplantation will be Friday.

Dobie, I'm so thrilled for you!
I have every faith that Friday will be just as encouraging and you'll soon be showing us photos of your darling twins or triplets. :D
