March/April IVF'ers

caline · Mar 9th, 2010, 06:40 AM

Anyone due to have IVF at this time, and fancy sharing experiences and support?

I will will starting down reg next week and aiming for transfer around week of 19th April. We are having a frozen transfer, so no stimming for me this time. I have to take oestrogen pills instead.

hi caline as u know i started down reg yesterday i still have the headache from hell, ive just booked a mini cruise for me and the hubby on preg test day think il need the break either way the test goes lol

Thats a cool idea.
Maybe we should just stick with the clover thread and hope it picks up a bit soon. lol.
Sorry you got a abd headache. Thats the down regging. Did you try driking more? I mean like 3 litres a day?

I will be doing EC and ET the week of April 19th! This is my first go at it, so I will be starting meds in Early April...

I'm hoping to start early April! Will find out next week hopefully what my protocol is and when i can get started. Really excited! I'm in the same boat as obe, ICSI self funded and 1st attempt!

Good luck to us all! xx

Hey guys! Me to! Me to!

Currently on BCP and it's making me feel rotten!
We are doing long protocol and i start DR 1st April, Stimms 12th April with EC 23rd April!

Anyone else on LP?

MummyIwanabe · Mar 10th, 2010, 09:40 AM

I think I'll be on SP, but haven't had confirmation yet. Will know next week! I'm really hoping I don't have to go on BCP. I was told I wouldn't but I wont know 100% till next thurs. I'm so excited I cant wait to find out, it just can't come quickly enough!!

That's interesting that you have your EC on 23rd April, I imagined it would be sometime in May but that's great its so soon! I'm really hoping mine will be in April too! May feels like forever away! lol

Good lukc Rachelle

Bebecake, we'll be having transfer the same week! So is that a short protocol? I am starting down reg on 15th March.

What happenes with a short protocol? We weren't offered that, and had a full ICSI cycle which got us a BFP only to miscarry at 5 weeks.

This is very cool. Everyone seems to be ahead on the other threads, so we will all be about the same time.

Rachelle why the BCP? How long do you have to take it for?

I think I am on a long protocol. Down reg for about 2 and a half weeks, then oestrogen for about 13 days (instead of stimms), then transfer followed by the lovely pessaries

I'm still waiting for AF to show her ugly face before I go on BCP. I am on cd 36 and 18 dpo... THis is weird because I am a regular 29 day cycle and 14 day luteal phase person... I am going to go in tomorrow for a blood test. I haven't taken a test since Saturday.
