Pam,

Wow! 17 eggs... that's terrific! And, I'm glad it wasn't to painful of an

experience for you. Ok, now we are thinking lots of fertilization thoughts!

So, the doctor is thinking that you will maybe hyperstimulate? What does

that mean exactly?

Congrat's again!

Pam,

17...whoo girl, no wonder you were so miserable!!! It sounds like things went

terrifically. I have got everything crossed for you!! BTW, what exactly is

hyperstimulation?? I know I could look it up, but I am sure you could give me

a better explanation. Don't mean to be nosy just like to know what you will

be going through!!

PAm,

So glad you posted...I've been wondering about you all day! 17EGGS -

way to go girl!!!! Also good news on the lining, that's great. Not

that I'm speaking from experience or anything, but when I've thought

of IVF, I've always thought 3 was a good number, but hey that's not

for me to decide is it, so I'll hush. What happens if/when you

hyperstimulate? Will they still be able to do the transfer? Gosh, I

sure hope so. Well, let us know how many of those little eggies

fertilize, okay? And take it easy, you deserve it!!!!

Luckily they said they will go on with the transfer no matter what. I

am starting to feel real positive again. I am just hoping enough

fertilize of good quality to put back 2 or 3 and have 5+ to freeze.
