IVF #2 Preperation

Of course no IVF of mine would be complete without a picture of all of our meds! I forgot to put the BCP in there but I think everyone knows what those look like! ;-) Here's my drugs for (crossing our fingers) our final IVF - the one that will produce our child or children! See - more positive thinking! ;-) My Repronex was increased by 10 vials this time so I have 50 vials of Repronex, 3 pre-filled shots of Ganirelex, 1 "shot" of hCG trigger, and 2 bottles of PIO (progesterone in oil). She'll give me the antibiotics and Valium when we get closer to "go" time.



As for my personal preperation - I'm doing ok. I had a horrible migraine last night. Probably from the BCP. I hate those things! A little less than 2 1/2 more weeks of them. Blek! I woke up with a residual headache from the migraine and I'm just praying that it doesn't go back to the full blown migraine. I haven't had one that bad since I was on Lupron for my Endo years ago! Hopefully it will not become the "norm" for my days left on BCP. I did my Yoga for Fertility last night as well as my meditation. I started getting my migraine while doing the Yoga but I muscled through it hoping that at least the meditation would help....nope! At least I got it in. My Acupuncturist said my sacral region is much more balanced and I told her I'd been doing Yoga more often and she said that is probably why. SO of course now I really don't want to miss a yoga session! ;-) I also organized all my meds in "date order" so we use the oldest ones first since we had some left from IVF #1 and some that we bought in December. So I guess I'm all ready. Just waiting to finish the BCPs and get in for my baseline. I'm hoping and praying everything is fine with that (no cysts!) so we have no delays! :-)

Looks very familiar - I remember laying out all my meds and just taking it all it as best I could...it can be an overwhelming sight!
