Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

Ash I think it's still beneficial. My doc said to me that the most important time is transfer day so something to consider if I couldn't do it long term. I'm going to look into doing it next cycle if need be. But I won't do it for weeks with being all OOP for stinking everything.(I'm not bitter at all :haha)
 
:haha: it's okay to be bitter, it is so much money. Ridiculous really! I can only do what I can so I just have to try what I can and hope that it's enough! And I don't think you'll have to worry about it ;)
 
First - yeah I was just reading up a little bit ago that they recommend 2 months before but I honestly cannot afford that because the woman that I may be going to charged 150 for the initial appointment and then 110 for each appointment after. I think going during stims to help with the bloating and then for the transfer would be okay? I hope so! I would hate to waste money if it's not going to work. Good luck with your FET!

Who knows if it works, but if it does, it's gotta be the ones closest to the retrieval and transfer that do the most good. I'm doing it bc I do see some scientific evidence that it helps. And I'm going through so much for IVF/FET stuff, I might as well try acupuncture, just in case it makes a difference btw success and failure.
 
ali - Oh we've already had the WTF appointment with my RE and he's going to taper my medications down at the end to allow the other smaller ones to maybe mature and be of better quality instead of just stopping the medication all of a sudden. So we do have a plan and we're also doing ICSI this time instead of natural fertilization so that should yield more embryos as well! I'm feeling pretty ... calm about this cycle. Last cycle (which was my first) I was kind of high strung about everything and questioned everything the doctor was doing and this time I'm just trying to go about it without worry. Its been good so far :) And I definitely get not wanting to put your body through another IVF ... it's tough! And expensive!

L4hope - I really hope you get your forever baby this time! When is your OTD?

edamame - good luck with your transfer :)

Good plan! I think the first IVF is a trial to see how your body is going to respond, then the second one they can tailor a little bit more to your body. I really hope these changes help!

Thanks Ash! Hopefully not, the thought of a third fresh cycle is exhausting. I can't wait to see how stims go for you this time. I think your doc has a good plan set for you!
 
ali - yeah it would be nice if they could do it right the first time! When I went through my 3rd IUI cycle with gonal F people were like oh well now at least they know how you respond, which is so true but you'd think the first IVF would be successful then!

L4hope - I think he has a good plan too but I'm ready to just have success already! Its been too long!
 
Goodness, the 19 th is going to be a big day on here as it's my OTD also. :flower:
L4 , just noted we started TTC at exactly the same time! Baby D and L4, can I ask how old you both are? I am 37.

Good luck and fingers crossed for you guys! I hope you make it through the awful 2ww alright and that the 19th is a triple good news day!!:happydance:
 
Phanthom - I never did congratulate you on your scan results - that's amazing! I am truly in awe of the gift you're giving their parents. They (and you) must be so happy!!
 
Edamame - congrats on being PUPO!! Very cool about your twin :)

BabyD - congrats on the :cold: !!
 
We're home, so I am officially PUPO with two beautiful embryos! They came out of the freeze just great, the embryologist said, and plumped up right away. They did assisted hatching. OTD is next Wed the 20th. I'm still a little tired from the Vicodin but I will do personals, looks like lots of good things are happening just from this morning. :)
 
I had my scan today and the lining is at 8.1. :) Dr. says everything looks great for the FET on Feb 20! :dance: I am so excited and ready! I picked up more meds to start Saturday. I'm on estradiol now, but increasing the dose and adding medrol, vivelle dots, baby aspirin and crinone. I'm looking forward to my last Lupron shot on Friday. My legs are bruising and I'm tired of poking myself! My beta is on Mar 5, the day before we move to the mainland. :winkwink:

Fingers crossed that we will have 3 BFPs on the 19th!
 
Hello Everyone...its been a while since i've been on here especially since after my BFN in October for my FET. I was really devastated and I felt so down and sad but I had to pick myself back up and start planning for the next cycle. I had a Da vinci surgery to remove adhesions that formed from my previous myomectomy that had caused me severe pain over the years and the surgery was done in November.

Since I only had 1 FE, I decided to go for a fresh cycle using menopur, follistim and lupron. I started Stim meds in January and my RE overdosed me, within 3 days, I already had 15 folies on my left and 17 on my right, was in severe abdominal and back pain and my estrogen was 1070 by day 3. I was so scared of develop severe OHSS and having my cycle canceled. By day 4 I had to stop menopur and only take lupron and follistim.

Anyway cut the long story short, my EC was yesterday 2/10 and we got 30 eggs..so excited. Today I got a call that 19 was fertilized, keeping my fingers for a great number of excellent grades embies and so excited for this cycle.

Baby dust to everyone...its our time and I have faith in God that this will bring my my little angel/angels. :)
 
Congrats Edamame, welcome to PUPO land!!

Lotus great news that your lining is looking good and you're all set for the 20th.

Babiesimready, wow that's a great ER report! Glad you are feeling ok and hopefully were able to avoid ohss.
 
Just wanted to give a quick thanks to everybody for welcoming me!!! Nurses consult this morning was seriously overwhelming, but knowing that you guys, and tons of other women are doing IVF everyday, made it a lot easier to bear. It's so cool to understand a little bit more tonight than I did last night. I'm gonna be doing the "micro flare" protocol....sure are a lot of meds going on there!!! The only one that has me really freaked out is the progesterone in oil...YIKES!!! The first shot of that's gonna be a doozy!!!

Thanks again for welcoming me...I'm looking forward to getting to know everybody!!! Good Luck & Baby Dust to you all!!!
 
Edamame - yeah!!! Enjoy those two little embies!

Lotus - great lining report!

Babies - great retrieval number! FX'd for a 5 day transfer and lots to freeze!

AFM - I just got out of my scan. I was so nervous but DH kept me calm until we heard the sound of her heartbeat - 130 bpm and one little bean!!!
