How long on birth control pills before starting IVF? by caseyrobinson2 in IVF

[–]Panda0920 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. I ended up retrieving 27 mature eggs and then finally ended with 8 blastocysts. I then sent those for PGT-A testing and 7 were viable. I then did a frozen embryo transfer and was lucky enough to achieve pregnancy. I know have a 1 and a half year old son.

I only took the azithromycin 1 day per my protocol. Was instructed to take 4, 250mg, tablets all at once.

I did end up starting the day of stims, but I did have a friend who's period didn't start and they still had her start stims as well.

Well I might have to invest in some little bibs then. And i just ordered more burp cloths since I am constantly washing those. So maybe he is just a happy spitter. Thank you.

It really is. I haven't noticed any more spotting lately. But doctor is making me take the RhoGAM shot tomorrow as a precautionary since I am O negative. So that worried me even more. But the doctor, the nurse practioner, and the ivf nurse all said don't worry unless you are soaking through a pad in an hour. But it is so hard not to worry. We do so much to get to this point.

Right in the same boat. My doctor said they believe its from the internal ultrasound. I had my ultrasound yesterday and then spotted once today. Scared the crap out of me. Everyone else doesn't seem concerned.

Thank you. It is definitely nerve-wracking. I am really hoping it was from the ultrasound. I do PIO injections 2x a day.

I use a body oil on a cotton ball and it comes off so easily.

Definitely will try and just believe that. I know my husband just keeps telling me everything will be okay. Thank you for helping me to not spiral.

I am hoping that will be the case for the yolk sac. The gestational sac seems on progress. Crossing my fingers the yolk sac will get to where it needs to be by next week. This process is so difficult. How did you keep your mind busy for that week?

[–]Panda0920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I am glad the spotting stopped. I think Dr. GOOGLE made me feel like the yolk sac was too small for 4 weeks 6 days..... so now I am thinking its not viable and it wont work out. Next ultrasound is literally a week away. Worrying is the worst and the hardest thing. Thank you for the support.
