Yes on day 2 after my af i started to down regulate to stop follies growing and then a week later i started taking E2 pills to build up my lining and due to my lining not growing i then started to take patches as well. then a week before my transfer i startd to use progesterone but pesseries rather than injection and then got changed to injection on day of transfer. i also took steroids and blood thinner injections and baby asprin. On a natural FET you do not take any drugs up intil about four days before transfer and then you take progeterone.

Best of luck with it you should hav eyour frosties returned very soon. How many do you have????

We have 6 frozen and are planning on having 3 transferred this time. The last two cycles we only had 2 each time. I think they would have liked us to stay at two since I am considered “young” but since this is our third try, I pushed for 3.

It looks like you are a year younger than me. How many did you have transferred? Can you tell the difference between a fresh cycle and FET?

itaylor i had 2 transferred as if we are under 40 we are not allowed any more in the uk.

I found the medicated better as they had more controll over it. I took forever to ovulate when i did the natural one.

In regards to fresh cycle and FEt my consultant says that in my case FET is better as long as they defrost ok and mine did he said the quality was as good as the fresh ones. the reason why it is better for me is that i have immune issues an dthe stims does not make a good enviroment for me i am better having they put in when it is all quiet.

Shantala: darling How are you doing! It nice to see you here, yes you right we had met on March thread around January & Feb, when they cancelled FET still I am dealing my lining issue. I am doing dancing jig jig your AF and I wish the all the best this cycle.

Susan: how are you doing I hope 2ww will fly away quickly, I am doing FET non medical as they told me, but my problems is my lining I had first IVF end 2005 which I produce 19 eggs 14 were fertilised but they cancelled my ET because my lining was very poor the day of EC. This stage they frozen 14 embories After long investigation and long horopal waiting list (they did Hysteroscopy and Laparoscopy and they fund Adhesion tissue and they remove), up to now I am fating my babies to put back were they belongs, I just started 5/05/07 patches to build up my lining I had my scan on last Friday and they told me the lining is good and I am doing Egg Transfer on Wed 23rd and wish me luck because I am so trying hard to get over it this waiting process.
You’re doing FET median what can median you are on? Are you taking Prosterone 400mg for vaginal use. I wish you and Itaylor and my self best wishes our FET.

Hi Susan,

Thanks for the hug. I am working hard with the employee department that handles coveravge at my DH job. Everything should be fixed hopefully by today, because I have another b/w on Wednesday. This is so stressful to deal with, but I can't break down because I need to stay on top of things. Do you know today one of the ladies at the clinic had the nerve to tell me to stop my meds because they said the ins company will not continue to cover, they told her they thought that i was doing my ER this past saturday and not b/w and us, can you believe them. I told her that i would continue taking the medication until i know for sure that all hope is gone and its not. as she did not take the time to ask me what the real deal was. So i explained to her that what if it was she who was in my position, then she agreed, so now they are waiting for a letter form the ins department which they will get today sometime about our new plan.

I will keep you posted, I can't wait to breath and feel at ease.

That great about your transfer so now are you on your 2ww?

Day four of stimming and what a horrible day I've had. I had horrible dreams last night and woke up unhappy and proceeded to get sadder and angrier as the day went on. Isn't it crazy the way hormones affect our moods so much? I was fine yesterday, had a nice weekend and yet was psycho crying lady all day today! My mum's just back from visiting my brother and wife and their little ivf miracles and she told me that my sis-in-law told me to stick in there as it's so worth it. Well that just made me cry for about an hour! Not quite the response my mother was expecting I don't think!

gbnut, that's great news about your little blasts, good luck hun. you asked how my levels were doing but I don't know what that means :roll: I don't go back to the clinic until Friday for a scan. My tummy's getting horrible and bloated though, yuk! hope Holly and Ivy are snuggling in there well.

arizonakiwi, bestest wishes for tomorrow, hope it goes well.

shantala, glad you're feeling better, how rotten you were ill on your hols. enjoy your time med free before you get going again!

Tanya, Jovigal and My2LnT, you crazeeeee home-testers you! Jo, I loved your qualifications for a poas addiction, especially the keeping secret from DH! LOL! I used to be an addict in the old days of trying to conceive naturally(!) but didn't bother with my 1st ivf as I didn't want bad news. Maybe this time I'll test, mmm, not sure. Looking good for both of you though so I might just follow suit! Not long now! It's looking so good for you all, can't wait to hear the confirmed news!

Jenn, congrats on your fab fertillisation. 100%, that's amazing! Let us know how they go.

Tia, what a nightmare with your insurance! hope you get that all sorted.

hey PMApsy stimming buddy, sounds like you're doing better than me today! you have a great attitude about the whole thing. it's my 2nd go too and like you I'm not as excited this time, perhaps protecting myself from a fall if it doesn't happen. I believe it will happen though, I just don't know when.

Daly, you've not posted for a few days. I hope your pup's doing ok. I love my dog like a child and know what you must be going through. They are so special, I just wish they lived longer than they do. The way I get my head around it is that even though my boy won't be here forever I'll be here for his forever and that's pretty special. I really hope yours is doing well. Do let us know if you want to talk.

Jovigal, I've just read on to your BFP! That's fabulous news babe! How are you feeling? I just can't imagine, it must be wonderful. I'm so happy for you :D

Right, bedtime for me. Hopefully tomorrow will be a happier one.

Night night brave ladies

Hey Girls!!

Jules- I hope you have a better day tomorrow!! Keep on keepin on! I know these hormones play dirty tricks on us, but sis-in-law is right. It will be worth it!!

Ladies I am worried- tomorrow I go for a 3 day transfer. I still have 6 and I will find out how good they are tomorrow, but I was really hoping I would get a 5 day transfer because I feel like the success rate is higher. Is that true or am I over reacting? I asked them why tomorrow and the nurse just said that is what the Dr. decided. I feel like they are not answering me!

I have to admit a part of me is excited to get my babies back tomorrow. I don't know if I would have made it another 2 days! I just want it to be done, and I get pregnant!! The waiting and worrying is neverending in this rollercoaster!

Got to go clean, in-laws coming this weekend and I will be lounging around for the next couple of days. I am NOT making my embies endure housework on their first days home!! :lol:

Jenn - One of the Drs at my clinic said if it is meant to be a baby it will be a baby. I had 2 BFNs with 5dt. And praying that the stick is right and I am preggy this time after a d3t. SO i will send you all the sicky vibes and stuff I have to get you that BFP!!!
