hi ladies!! how are you all doing today? so much excitement for the ladies who will be starting their cycles in April/May!

i am still "patiently" awaiting my IVF consult at the end of April and really hoping things move quickly after that!

 

[scerena]

starlight hey I'm sure things will move quickly after your consult hopefully you will start that next cycle you're doing great at waiting, you "seem" calmer than me not long now Hun

 

[Starlight2012]

hi scerena! what do you have planned for the weekend? due to easter weekend we have nice long weekend over here so will have a 4 days weekend and my office closes early today so will be out of here by 2pm, yay!

 

[scerena]

starlight it's a long weekend here too Easter we have got my stepdaughter Saturday morning until Sunday evening, my 2 nieces who are 7 and 5 and my 3 year old nephew are coming round on Sunday with my mum
A will probably do Easter stuff with them like bunny masks and cards etc

The rest of easter will jus be relaxing I think and eating plenty of chocolate

How about you? Any plans?

 

[Starlight2012]

scerena, that sounds like a wonderful Easter weekend you have lined up! We will be having my family over for dinner on Sunday then having Easter lunch with my hubby's family on Monday. Tonight/Friday/Saturday, hoping to just relax with my hubby. If the weather is good maybe go out for a hike or at least a walk around!

mmm chocolate!

 

[scerena]

starlight your Easter weekend sounds lovely I'm hoping to relax today and tomorrow then a hectic couple of days

What's the weather like in Canada???

I know right I can't wait to get stuck into the chocolate

 

[Hopefulmom12]

scerena - totally hear you on being impatient, I feel the same!!

captain - thank you soooo much for all those wonderful suggestions about Barcelona and so happy to hear that you love it I have taken note of all the spots that you noted. So so excited!! you are so lucky that you can go there for business! What is it that you do? Do you think that 9pm be a good time to have dinner or is that too early/late?

hopefulmom - welcome!! fantastic that you had success the first time around and good luck on your upcoming cycle! do you mind me asking how long you TTC'd for your #1?

Thanks for the welcome. We started trying in fall of 2010 and due to my age only waited six months before getting a referral to see a specialist. Overall not that long but when you are in it, it feels like ages.

 

[scerena]

hopefulmom12 6 months feels like a life time in TTC world Hun plus you know you've had a previous good success with IVF so why not go again when you're ready

 

[mission_mommy]

hello ladies,
My Af finally showed up!! was cramping Bad in the morning...better now...not sad as i usually am when i get Af....May be because i finally get to start my ivf journey...!
wil be calling My REs office to schedule the 3rd day blood work!

kismat- thats true...it feel good to finally be able to start ..waiting makes me restless!

 

[scerena]

mission that's great news so stimming will begin in a couple days time how exciting can't wait to follow your journey

 

[ttcbaby117]

mission - the saline sono isn't as bad as I thought. Just as a bad as a pap smear. An endo scratch is where they scratch the lining of the uterus. The theory is that a little damage to the uterus makes the lining susceptible for implantation.

I agree that 6 months in the TTC world is so long. But we were fortunate. For number 2 I just waited the length of time that my specialist said which was 8 months. I was happy that he didn't say longer. Most of what I have been reading suggests a year to two years. I just don't have that much time. So today I started my meds for my FET.

 

[scerena]

hopeful I've been TTC years, if IVF works for me and I want another baby I wouldn't bother with other treatments before hand either as I know they haven't worked for me so I totally agree with only waiting a little time when you're ttc#2

Gl with the meds
