You know I consider myself a fairly tough gal, I do alot of meds, treatments, excercise, work full time etc. I deal with treatments, illnesses and procedures pretty well.

That being said you give me a tiny amount of hormone stimulation and I am a MESS! I dont really remember how I did whne on the clomid and femara other than I remember becoming aware of where my ovaries were due to pain and was acutely aware when I ovlulated. My IVF cyle the meds made me sooo miserable and I responded with a TON of eggs. Now for my FET I asked for low stimulation and they said lowest normal dose was 75IU of the med so I talked to them and they let me do 1/2 of that and I am STILL miserable.

I feel very 'full' in my ovaries with pain and pulling sensations, nauseau, fatigue, headache ugh. I feel like such a baby but geez. The goal is to get one good egg and a nice thick lining, I can guarantee I have MORE. Ah well good problem to have I suppose.

One more night shots and then monday I will have my ultrasound and hopefully will be able to stop.

Anyway as I reflect on this I just think about what we all go thorugh and do to build our families and its just amazing. At least for us we appreciate being parents so much mroe and dont take it for granted so it is somewhat of a blessing as well. DH always talks about so many others he WISHES had IF.

anyway that is my hormonal ranign on

Well said! I really do feel that we have a different perspective on parenting than others who don't go through IF simply because of what we have to endure physically and emotionally. I don't think it makes me a better parent, I just think it makes me a different parent.
