I've been reading the message board each day and have decided to post an update today. I took my last BCP last nite so I am waiting for AF to arrive. I start the stim meds on day 2 of my cycle. I want to say "Congrats" to all those BFP's. :D :D :D For those on your 2ww just hang in there, relax, kic...

CT_Michele, I read the board the entire time during my 1st IVF attempt but I only posted a few times. I only had 1 egg frozen so I am in the process of another fresh cycle. I wanted to start earlier but I had a c-section and my doctor wanted me to wait until my DS was a year old. Good evening all, j...

I saw an acupuncturist for about 2 months (twice a week). I also had a session before and after transfer. It worked for me. Now I have a beautiful baby boy (8 months old). I think it relaxes you but I could also tell a big difference in my body. I slept better at night and the injectables didn't mak...

My first IVF cycle was a success and now I have a beautiful baby boy . I had a c-section on Sept 08. I was wondering how long I should wait before I try for #2. The IVF clinic says it is okay to try again now but my OB-Gyn insists that I wait a full year before getting pregnant. Any suggestions?
