IVF/ICSI/FET Round 2 (or 3, or 4, or 5, etc.) ladies trying again in 2011

Hey, just wondered how long you guys had to wait between your failed cycle ending and your follow-up appt? We got our letter through yesterday and it isn't until 22 Feb - that's two months gap. Seems a bit unfair to make us wait so long with so many unanswered questions...
 
Hi Lou

My clinic waits 3 months, although can ring them any time with questions (trust me, I've done that a few times!) And in between I saw the hospitals councillor who actually updated me with some news, that my notes had been looked over by panal and had been approved for ICSI no.2 (thank god!!) I saw the nurses mid Dec, although they havn't really discussed protocol for this cycle yet as i'm having zolodex at the moment, with view to start second ICSI in march. I will have a list on questions before i'm happy to inject the first buserelin I can tell you! I think I could know a lot more if I wanted to but for now i'm happy to plod along in blissful ignorance until i've finished these horrible zolodex jabs. Second one tomorrow, one more to go! Hurry up march!!

Did I see you had mentioned going to Manchester? That's where I go, they are all lovely.

Hi to all you lovely ladies, Lolly xxxxxxxxx
 
hi isi,
thankyou,
We have our follow up app on the 20th Jan so I wont know anything till then, when we first got the app I thought the time would give us a chance to have a think and settle but now I just want it!! I dont know if they will have any ideas of why our wee embie didnt implant. Did they give you any reasons in your follow up?
It wont be long now until you start. I havent done the long protocol (i did short) so im not exactly sure what its like. Is it a bit longer? How are you feeling about it all?
xx

Hi Angie. Yeah, the long protocol is often longer, as it starts on day 21 of your preceding cycle (instead of day 2 of the new cycle). As for my follow-up appointment, I got absolutely no tangible reasons....just a lot of :shrug:. One of the reasons I decided to change FS!
 
Hi Everyone

I've spoken to you all on various threads but thought I would join this one too if that's ok, seems a positive one! Especially after Wishfuls news! Congratulations lovely! What a miracle and such a happy start to your year! Praying for you, and hoping that you have started what is going to be a good year for all of us!

Lolly xxxxxxxxx :flower:

Welcome Lolly :hugs:. Glad to have you with us! Yeah, Wishful's miracle :bfp: is definitely good karma for this thread :happydance:

Hi Lou. I had my follow-up appointment about a week after AF started. It was absolutely useless though, as they were like they didn't know what could have possibly gone wrong, I had such great embryos, responded so well :shrug:. Like that's what I wanted to hear! But yeah, 2 months is an awfully long time to wait. Is there no way to speed it up?
 
Wishful....how are you preggo lady :D. So very excited for you :yipee:

As for me, going by my ticker, I have 3 weeks and 6 days till we start again!!!! Soooooo excited!!!!

Duurh!! I cant believe I asked if the long protocol was longer than the short one...................what did I expect it to be shorter :dohh: I think I meant to say is it alot longer. So if its day 21 off preceding cycle, its not that much longer. It just seems when I look through everyones blogs the lp seems to go on forever and the SP seemed to fly by. I wonder why they use one or the other!!!
Gee, well be all experts at this soon!!!
I guess youre private if you can change your Fs?
 
Hi girls :flower:,
First off Good luck to all you girls I hope 2011 is all our lucky year.Hope you don't mind me joining you? We will be having ICSI at some point this year let me first better explain our journey.

We started ttc in Nov 04 then finally managed to get our fertility tests carried out in 07 turns out DH has obstructive azoospermia, we were getting married in June 08 so decided to do our first cycle of ICSI privately with egg share on my first cycle after the wedding this unfortunately ended in a BFN, We then had our NHS funded cycle in 2009 this time I also done acupuncture prior to treatment this cycle resulted in a BFP which ended in mc at 4+6. We the tooka break to get myself together before trying again as I felt I had to get myself mentally strong again but in the mean time my sister found out she was preg (not planned and she had 3 children) she at that point said she didn't want another child and if it wasn't for her knowing our situation she wouldn't have told anyone she had been preg however if DH and I were willing to adopt the wee one she would continue with the preg we accepted and were over the moon the wee man was born on 26th Aug 2010 I was there at his birth and he came straight home with DH & I 6 hours later words cannot express how happy & complete we finally felt however this was short lived on sept 14 after 9pm at night the police arrived at our door accusing us of kidnap & took the wee man back to my sister & his bio dad(who is a heavy drinker, takes drugs & has charges for indecent exposure assaulting police officer etc etc in short not a safe or stable person) this was the most trumatic thing to ever happen to us we never even got the chance to say a proper good bye to the little one. from that point up to the 4th of OCT I never heard anymore from my sister , I was scared to call my sister as we had been accused of what we had by the police I was very aware of the fact if I did there would be a record of me calling but not what was said, anyway on the 4th I got a call from her to ask me to come collect all her kids as they did not feel safe in the house the social work then placed a place of safety order so they could not get removed, the girls are now back with my sister the wee one is still with DH & I as my sister says she want him to be with us she is no longer with his dad but he is also trying to get him at the moment we do not know what the future holds there will be a childrens hearing on the week of the 24th of jan where we will most probably find out if he is going to be ripped away from us again.

Anyway the outcome will determine when we try again if we lose him again obviously I will need to just see when we feel ready to try again, if he is still with us we would like to try for a sibling for him around July.

I apologize for the rambled state of my post.

Hi Lou, I think we had EC/ET at around the same time and Ive got my app on the 20th Jan and they said it would be that long because of Christmas and my specific FS is away the first week of Jan (we could have seen another specialist earlier if we wanted to) so I think 2 months is way too long. Could you not make a desperate phonecall to get a cancellation or something? I thought at the time, for me to wait a month was a good thing but now im already getting impatient so I can understand how you feel.
I did read that you were having problems with your cycle. Im not sure if Ive ovulated this month either, keep on poas but havent got smiley face unless I missed it. I suppose thats one good thing about waiting for app, hopefully have time for cycles to get back to normal.

I hear really good things about CARE, if i had a choice and lived nearer one of their clinics, i would go to one of theirs. My friend had a failed cycle on the nhs then went to CARE (Northampton i think) and she had twin boys just before Christmas!!

Good luck anyway

Oh my goodness!! You have gone through an awful lot, Wannabmum!! Gosh, why on earth would your Sister toy with your emotions like that??!! I guess it was her Patner's fault, but gosh, what a roller coaster for you!!! So very sorry hun :hugs:

On the bright side, in addition to your boy, just keep thinking how you might be, at the very least, pregnant with another baby :happydance:. Now that's something to look forward to! Do you have any idea about whe exactly you'll start?

Hi Angie, no worries at all. It happens to all of us :). My last cycle (on the long protocol). I started down regulating on the 2nd of October, and I had egg retrieval on the 31st of October....so pretty much a whole month. And over here, we have no choice but to go private, as there is no government funding :cry:.
 
Thanks huni, think will start around the 13th of July on the antagonist protocol at the GCRM, we had been planning on starting Feb however it was the day I went for my review consultation at the clinic that I got the call to get the kids when I got out the clinic.

so sorry wannabmum, i didnt see your post when i posted straight after you. It must have been crossed!!
You've been through so much, it be must be so awful. What a horrible ordeal to go through....I cant believe your sister messed you about so much. she is obviously controlled by her partner.
I really hope everything works out ok for you. I'll be thinking of you.

Hi, girls! The stims start today! Had my baseline this a.m. and start the Follistim (at 375!!), Repronex and lowered lupron tonight. wow. Follistim, belly. Repronex, back. Lupron, leg. I feel like a pin cushion. hahaha!

ANYWAY, They anticipate that I will get the HCG trigger shot somewhere between Wed-Friday of next week, so, that means (if all goes well) retrieval will be anywhere from Friday to Sunday next week. YIKES. Kind of scary..
 
Hiya everyone
ISI - think I will get af on Fri (that's what happened last time I think).

So MSG I will be stimming from Mon if all goes to plan - just a week behind you!!! Isi - you won't be long after. Oh Plllleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssseeeeeeeee let us get sticky beans this time!!!!!

Hello everyone else.

Welcome Wannabmum - what an ordeal!!!! Sounds like the best place for your little one is with you! I don't think somebody who has a history of indecent exposure will get custody surely?! Something is SERIOUSLY wrong if he does. Got my fx'd for you and I hope all goes well honey.
