Thanks Sarah- DH keeps asking about the thawing and freezing process and I don't know so I thought I'd ask youAre you getting excited? I'd be over the moon because at least you know you've got something there and your in with a shot!! Can't wait to see how you go!
Ready- Hope you get a beter idea at your scan of when to trigger, I'd be a mess if I had to do IUI...lol
Hockey- How's it all going for you?
Welcome newcomers and hi everyone else
Thats a great size follie! Doesn't the trigger force OI had my cd11 scan today.
1 follicle 20mm. Lining is good at 7.5.
They wanted me to trigger today and do IUI on cd13. I suggested trigger cd12 and IUI on cd14.
The last time I did this, I also interfered but suggested to have IUI on cd13, then I think I ov'd on cd14 or 15, (I should have listened to them, but felt ov was imminent). So I am a little nervous that my timing will be off. Ok, maybe I'm a lot bit nervous.
I'm trying to keep perspective that it will take a couple of cycles just to get the timing right, so hopefully, I will have a good plan for February.
I also keep trying to be realistic. My RE says it's only a 15% chance of conception and that, "For most women, this won't work." I mentioned this to my friend, (aka fertile mertile. She had 2 sets of twins in 21 months.....unassisted...... each conception from her first cycle of well timed bd). My friend said to me, "And what were the odds that I would have 2 sets of twins in a row from having unprotected sex only 2 times?
Well................I couldn't really come up with a response to that. But, it did make me think that maybe this is possible!!
Happy fertilization everyone!!

It does. My body seems to respond late to the trigger though.
I think it just ovulates when it wants to regardless of trigger.
I'm on BCP's until we start the cycle in mid February. So right now, I get to stalk all of your progress - which is awesome because I just build on all of your excitement and good news!
I'm not familiar with the nasal spray - is this something you do before you start meds?
the nasal spray is the suppressor so I don't ovulate...I go stop the pill on the 24th and then have a scan on the 31st and if my ovaries are quiet I can start stimming at that point

Ahhh...so your on the long protocol as well
Do you know what you'll be on for stimulating etc?
So I had a saline sonogram this morning to check on a small fibroid that I have. The doctor feels there is a risk that it could cause issues with implantation. This is the same fibroid I've had that he didn't seem to think was an issue with IUI's but for IVF maybe. Ideally, you would want to remove it - which has a recovery time of 3-4 months (meaning no TTC).
So now the question is - do I go ahead with IVF anyway and hope it doesn't cause any issues or do IVF, freeze the eggs, have the surgery and hope that I have eggs that make it through thaw and have them transferred after recovery?
I'm just so disappointed. I feel like I've been waiting to get to IVF and now that I'm finally there - its another 4 month wait. This is so emotionally draining!!
I'm leaning towards going through the IVF process and making a game day decision based on egg counts.
why such a long wait? I was allowed to TTC right after my polyp removal, they just said no intercourse for a week. why so long? Ive never heard of 3-4 month recovery and in fact my FS told me that having an 'injury' to the uterus helps with blood flow (she might do a biopsy on me if I have a couple of failed FETs).
