Potatoes and Cupcakes

I must be PMSing, since all I want to eat is potatoes and chocolate cupcakes...carbs, in other words. Very excited. I probably won't be having any potatoes, but I might make a half batch of chocolate cupcakes. I need to break out my Halloween baking stuff anyway, usually I have done a lot more baking by this time of the month.

As for my cycle - 6+ (?) days of Lupron left; I am not sure when I am going to stopping it. I know I go down to 5 units when I start the Follistim, but other than that, I'm not sure. I'll find out at suppression check, which is only 5 days away now. Time is going pretty fast right now, and for that I am grateful!

I'm off to bake...

  1. You should keep taking lupron until your trigger shot or ER, so for a 2-3 weeks still.
    My tummy is starting to get sore, is yours? I want to call and ask if there are other possible injections sites. My first IVF (with a different dr.) said I could do my tricep, but that sounds worse.
    Enjoy your cupcakes! :)

  2. Interesting, Nicole! Thanks for the headups. I am so clueless. I don't think I have enough Lupron for that many days, but I know I can get some quickly, so no biggie. My belly is not sore at all, I don't get bruises or bleed, either. Knock on wood. Of course tomorrow I will get both, just for typing that out... LOL.

  3. Hi - I am just dropping by. I am about a week ahead of you. I did my suppression check yesterday and started stims tonight. Lupron was actually much better than I thought it would be. I had headaches too, but took tylenol to help. I have been able to sleep, but have had the craziest dreams. Good luck with your suppression check!
