Although, it looks like my transfer will be in the beginning of July sometime. I should be starting lupron on or around June 20th.

GOOD LUCK!

Hi Maddy,
I am set to start my cycle around June 3 so I will only have my tx in July but I am hoping to join the June/July cyclers.
Scared, anxious, nervous seems to be right where we all start. I am on IVF # 5 and I am still all those things.
I think for most of us the procedures and the shots become quite doable. For me, anyway, it has always been the fear of it not working and getting hurt all over again.
Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones to get a BFP right out of the gate.
Good luck.

Hi Reneeree!

I just wanted to add that this is also a FET for me. Right now I feel a bit relaxed but it always takes time for it to hit me. It usually hits me once that med box arrives

Add me to the list. We are doing an FET. Our tx day will be around the 17th of June. I start my shots on the 1st. My meds should be arriving tomorrow sometime. I think that I will only be doing the estrogen 2x a week. Then start the pio after 8 days. A little different then it was w/ my fresh cycle.

I am in...haven't formally introduced myself, but I start my meds probably Monday or Tuesday of next week with transfer sometime between 5/28-6/1. We got pregnant with our daughter, Camryn, after 8 IUIs and this is our first IVF. I am a LOT nervous, but it will really hit me when I get my meds!

Hi ladies! I'm in!

I just finished up IVF#3, an FET that was unsuccessful. IVF#1 and #2 were both fresh cycles resulting in low beta BFPs and that never made it farther than 8 weeks. I wasnt sure if I wanted some time off but I decided to jump back in and HOPE AND PRAY #4 does the trick! I have no frozen embies left so I'm doing a fresh cycle. I've been back on BCP since May 9th and I'll be starting Lupron on May 24th. I do a long lupron protocol so I'm assuming my ER/ET will be mid June.

I'm totally with you, Renee, the shots are part of life now unfortunately, its the heartbreat that makes it so scary! And Babygurl, you're also right, once that box hits your front door......the nervousness sets in!

I'm anxious to get to know all of you! Good luck to the newbies. I hope you guys are on the 'one and done' track!

Hi everyone! I'm happy to join you this month. Last month I was lurking as a went through my cycle and hoping for BFPs for everyone. I just found out yesterday that our 1st cycle failed, so we are transferring the two we have frozen in the beginning of June. My Doctor said I can do it this next cycle on Estrogen or the cycle after that naturally. I'm not sure what that means. Has anyone done a frozen transfer on Estogen?
Anyway it will be nice to have people to talk to as I go through it this time! I know those of you who said you are going through your first cycle are very nervous. I was too, but once you get through the first shots you will be so proud of yourselves! Each day the shots get easier and it goes by so quickly.
Good Luck to ALL OF YOU!!!!!

Hi Girls,
Many of you have probably started your meds by now. Where is everyone in their cycle right now?
I will be cheering you all on from the sidelines until I start in June. I am just starting to get healthy...giving up my trusted friends Corona and lime, continuing to exercise and eat right (mostly). I am also doing acupuncture once a week (I LOVE IT!)
How are you all doing?
Good luck everyone...

I start Lupron June 20something! (depending on when AF decides to show) As for now I am trying to be good and take my prenatal vitamins everyday, eat right, and exercise. One habit that will be very, very hard to give up is my COFFEE!!! Ahhh! I can't live w/o my morning and afternoon cup. I don't know how I am going to do it?? I guess I'll start weaning myself by switching to half decaf/half reg. ASAP!

I'm starting Lupron on May 24th (like Meghan!) ER/ET will be mid June.

I'm going for my 1st acupuncture appt today at 3pm and i'm VERY excited! I'm going for back pain actually but I'm going to talk to the acupuncturist about doing some sessions for IVF as well. I'm hoping that she can get my back in order, if not, I might postpone this cycle........( ) Hopefully that doesnt have to happen........

I just started my Estrace last night and I am scheduled to go back for BW and sono on the 29th. My FET should be the first week in June. The week I turn 36!!! I have an appointment with my Doctor tomorrow to go over my last cycle and the quality of my frozen embryos.

I'm starting to get excited again. I bet all of you are too. GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!!!!

I'll be a June cycler, too! I'm doing a "natural" cycle FET. I should get AF this weekend, so transfer will likely be around 6/15 (give or take a few days).

I'm very excited! I'm glad to see some old friends (glad for the company, that is!) and some new ones, too. Let's hope June is a great month for us all!

I just started my BCP on Saturday. I'll receive my calendar soon, but it looks like ER will be sometime at the end of June, and ET at the beginning of July.

Here we go again.......................

Oh the fun begins. Most of us beg af to show when she is suppost to. Well she showed way to early so on bcp I go for 2 wks. When they did my bloodwork it doesn't even show that she should be here. My levels are way to high. I go in tomorrow for b/w and u/s to see what is up. They are thinking that it might be cycts or endo that my body is getting rid of.

Jenni - I hope the b/w and u/s give you a positive direction today. Keep us posted!

Laurie - How did your doc visit go? How many embies do you have? I have 2, so hope they both make the thaw!

Babygurl - I switched to half caf/half decaf months ago and was fine. I still have that cup in the morning as part of my routine. DH does it too and it hasn't slowed him down.
