Awww . . . . yes, we decided to go for it! I'm so sick of waiting and waiting and waiting. So, I went and got my blood pregnancy test today to confirm I'm not pregnant. Once the nurse gets the results, she'll okay me to start bcps - so I'll be starting that either Saturday or Sunday (maybe even Friday). I'll be on bcps for 21 days. On Day 19 of bcps, I start doing shots of lupron. AF should arrive shortly after stopping the bcps, and then I'll go in for a CD 3 u/s. Assuming no cysts and looking good, then I'll add injections of Follistim and Luveris. I think I'll be stimming around 10-12 days, but I won't know until I know. Once they say I'm good to go, I'll trigger, then go for ER 36 hrs later. That should be early April. Depending on how well they grow/fertilize, I'll either do a 3 day transfer or a 5 day transfer - that decision is made by the embryologist after ER. So . . . again, maybe 1st or 2nd week of April will be ER and ET. I'm SOOOO excited, and really hope this works for us. If this doesn't work the first time, we can't try again until June/July because of my schedule, but I'm hoping not to worry about that! I think the bcps time will fly because I have to go to Los Angeles for work for 1 week of March, and right when I get back, I should be starting the Lupron shortly afterwards.
