We want to... I need to call re to see how LO go have to wait. I would like to do er this year and transfer close to his one year birthday

Are you going soon first?

We're meeting with the RE tomorrow I would transfer today if I could, but I have to have two periods first and no sign of AF yet. I'm stopping breastfeeding, so we'll see if that does the trick.

 

[MoBaby]

No AF for me either yet. I'm still pumping twice daily for a very little amount which I am not sure its even worth it...I wonder if I stop if AF will come. I do know my clinic doesnt do IVF cycles past mid november to end of year so I'm not sure I would even be ready by then. I at least want to meet with my RE and gets meds from pharmacy that I can because I have met my deductible and that will be huge savings. I need to make an appt! Do you have frosties left? We will do a full IVF then do a natural FET cycle I think...Debating now if we should do fresh but we never had luck with fresh and I seemed to do better on the natural FET cycles.

We may do another round soon. We just have our hands full right now . I also want to just enjoy these guys for a bit too. But still not sure yet. If we do I will be transferring 2 again.

We are ttc #2 as we speak. Just seeing what my hormones are doing naturally this month. Really hoping we can get pregnant with clomid and possibly iui. We are oop for ivf and dh is not to convinced on spending the money again.

Whoa sweetness I don't blame you for enjoying the twins for now. They keep you busy enough I'm sure!

 

[MoBaby]

We are oop also.. We have spent 40k already but I can't imagine LO being an only child. We will do one try I think for a sibling and if it doesn't work I will be completely happy with my miracle man so this is why I am telling my re he needs to be aggressive and stim the crap out of me... We will do a fet transfer again so we will freeze everything. I'm not worried about ohss in that case so hopefully he will hit me hard lol.

 

[L4hope]

I feel the exact same way Mo! Hope he gets you lots of good eggs. If only I can get dh on board I'm all about one mor ivf round.

We don't have any frosties left. DS was our lucky embie. However, we do have my eggs, which I froze when I was 36 and single (trying to buy more time to find my DH...I met him weeks after starting the cycle). Which brings me to the exciting news from my RE...

Since we need to do PGD (due to my chromosomal abnormality), we are going to thaw my eggs, fertilize them, see how many blasts we get, do PGD, and freeze all! That means we will know how many good embryos we have ASAP (probably in ~1 month)! We don't need to wait for AF to get that answer.

And, if we get no good ones, then we will do a fresh cycle. However, my eggs were frozen when I was 36.5 and I will be nearly 40 when we would be doing the fresh cycle. So, fingers crossed that the frozen eggs result in a healthy baby

I've decided not to tell anyone in our families until after we know if there are any good embryos. No point in risking a leak, as last time my MIL couldn't keep our secrets to herself.

Two again!? Wow, so you'd want another set of twins? Everyone is different, I guess. We are shooting for two children total. I look at my friend who has boy/girl twins and wish that was us.

Anyway, it sounds like you're having fun! At six month old, my DS is really starting to be more fun than work. He giggles when tickled and is sleeping and eating relatively well. So, life with him is full of joy

That's great, L4! I wish you the best of luck in TTC It would be awesome if it happened with no or minimal intervention. I've heard so many stories of people getting pregnant naturally after IVF, including a couple we know. Though I'm sure they are the exception, there is hope.

DH and I both want two kids, but our attitude is that it wouldn't be a tragedy if we aren't able to have a second, like it would've been if we hadn't had one child (either biological or otherwise).

How exciting first!!

 

[L4hope]

First that's very exciting you'll know very soon if you have some good embies! How smart of you to freeze your eggs ahead of time waiting for mr. Right!

I can't imagine not having a sibling for T. But I think I could also accept it if I knew I tried everything. We'll see what happens.
