Default Started Lupron

I had my first dose of Lupron 2 nights ago for my upcoming FET. Transfer date should be around Aug. 15th.Is anyone else having a transfer around then? We have 2 Blasts on ice. The thought of them not thawing so well TERRIFIES me! But Fear is problem ONLY when it holds you back, right?! Ack! Here we grow again! Hopefully

I just got my calendar for my first cycle last week, and it appears I will be on about the same schedule.... which would give us due dates of very early May '09.

If I read your sig line correctly, I'd say you have a lot to be confident about as you have a a successful FET in the past!!

Awesome, I start my first BCP tonight and will start Lupron soon hopefully, we have three blasts on ice and I too am worried sick about the thaw process.

I also noticed your little girl's name is Adriana, my son's name is Adriano, lol.

Hi Chassy!!
I did a one time IM shot of Lupron one week ago and am waiting for . I'll go in for a baseline, u/s soon and then start my estrogen. I should transfer around Aug. 1st (?). We have three blasts on ice and our lab has a great thaw rate so I'm not too worried about that part. Call your embryologist and chat with them to ease your concerns. I did and it helped!! They were very informative!

I thought it was... but I am tapping into my OCD tendencies and making very sure I am doing this right! I watched the video and read three different sets of instructions. All for the same thing, just wanted to make sure I have a complete understanding of it all.

God Willing I get a BFP... I hope I won't be one of those psycho mother's that make everyone was and sanitize their hands before they hold the baby!!! Right now I'm rational, or at least as much as I can be for me, ha! I hope to stay that way!

I should be about three days after you. I started BCP's last week, will begin estrogen at the beginning of August and transfer around August 18th. Here hoping for BFP's for ALL! How many did you transfer last time? We have six frozen but do not know a ton about the quality...this is a donor embryo frozen cycle.

Thanks You girls ROCK!!

How exciting it is to start this journey once more and have such great support again. I'll be cheering you ALL as well!!

Whoa Tanya...we're really close cycle buddies, eh? For all we know, we might have a transfer on the SAME DAY!

Kristen after you have that baby...you will definitely have EVERYONE washing and sanitizing!! Gaurenteed!! LOL

Oh and for those of you that are not familiar with my situation.....for Adriana I started out with 8 frozen embryo's 2 in each vial. Well Vial after Vial....they kept collapsing. My RE said he thought after the 3rd vial of embryo's looked so poorly they went for the 4th vial and thought the WORST. Well low and behold one turned out OK and one was still poor but the transferred them anyway. LUCKILY it worked!

Back in the lab they had 2 embryos that originally thawed out poorly but then flourished into great quality blasts....so they refroze them.

As of yet, there aren't any stats on refrozen embabies ~since it's rare that this even happen. BUT! I'm willing to give them a try andmy RE thinks I should TOO!

I already asked on here before if anyone knew or heard about refrozen embryo stats but no one knew?? Ah, well, it's in my Gods hands!! and i am giving them a chance and bringing them home.......to my womb
