Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 7/9/08
Update: 7/9
There was a little delay in this process because the intended Mother was having some sort of medical issues. Since this is anonymous, that is all I know.
But finally, I got my calendar last week and will be starting Lupron the middle of next week, 10 units for 10 days, then down to 5 units for 9 more days while starting 3 Bravelle and 1 Menopur for 5 days. I will also have to take prenatal vitamins and doxycycline towards the end. And strict instructions of no alcohol and no sex. I will have to see the Dr. 3 times at the end of July and have the retrieval in the beginning of August!
The delivery guy came with all the prescrips last night… and WOW.. a lot of stuff. They showed me how to mix all of the meds, but it’s a little overwhelming.
Send the Intended Mother lots of baby dust!

Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 7/18/08
Update: 7/18
I started the 10 units of Lupron injections this week.... The First time I did it I think I had to count to 3 maybe 5 or 6 times before I actually stuck myself But once I did it I realized it wasn't that bad and now I'm more comfortable with it. I have an appt for next week for bloodwork and a sonogram before I start the stims.  I may have some questions for the BTDT about mixing the Bravelle and Menopur  But so far no side effects or any problems with the lupron.

since this is an anonymous donation, I may not find out... I've mentioned to my Nurse that I'd like to know if she does in fact get pregnant.. just out of curiousity.. but it's up to the IP's.

Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 8/11/08
Update 8/18/08:
Day 8 of stims and so far I've been doing well, the Dr said I'm responding to the medication perfectly.... The only side effect I've had is some headaches, which has been totally manageable with Tylenol. At this point I'm a little bloated, my DH said he doesn't notice it, but I do The sono this morning showed alot of follies measuring from 18.5 to 13mm I believe so I will be going back for another sono and bloodwork tomorrow and most likely the Dr said that I will trigger for a Thurs. retrieval The hardest part has been getting up at 5:30am to get to the early Dr appts In the beginning the amount of the medications and the needles was a little overwhelming  But taking it one step at a time has made it easier. I suppose this is the easy part, the IP is the one that has to go through the 2ww
