hey sarah !! Thank you so so much for the info. It's very helpful. Are you familiar with the Kaplan classroom courses?

hey everyone ! I'm an American citizen, studied nursing abroad -in Israel. RN B.S with 1.5 year experience. I'll be moving from Israel to the U.S.A this coming September. I have to take the NCLEX in order to practice in the states. My questions: 1) What should I pack with me in order to study for the exam? should I bring all of my notes? books? Brunner? if so it's a lot of weight - 4 years worth, please let me know what's most important for me to bring? or just buy the study guides once i'll arrive? and if so will it just be enough the guides without my notes/folders? 2) How long is the average study for the the exam? please.... fill me in. I would love to read your suggestions. :balloons:

few suggestions: 1) around your ovulation try to have ultasounds check-ups for follicles size (which these eventually will turn out to be ovum) once they are around 20mm they burst out of the ovary and become an egg. this way you'll find out best if you're ovulation 2) as you're waiting, have your husband check his sperm count, although obviously it was good, it's dynamic and you never know... 3) next you can always tell your doctor that you've been trying for 1 year so the next step is trying fertility drugs starting for light ones to induce ovulation and increase number of follicles and chances hope this info. was for any help if so i'm glad. good luck :balloons: limor ( ob-gyn rn-bsn) and from personal experience !!!!

as someone on the thread said the BHCG has not been elevated enough for urine, but the most accurate test is the blood level of BHCG. so if it's possible have it done. hope you are, i'm crossing my finger !
