Hi Everyone,
Just checking in. I got AF last week so I will start Lupron on June 5 and then go for u/s and b/w on the 18th. I am going on vacation tomorrow so I probably won't be visiting the boards for awhile. I am going to Kentucky Lake to relax and do a bunch on nothing. We go to KY Lake every year at Memorial Day and always have a lot of fun. Hope everyone has a good Memorial Day weekend.

Chris

Chris, a nice relaxing vacation sounds wonderful. Hope you have a great time.

Wishfull, you are a super star to give yourself the injections.

sonu911, thanks for sharing your story. It is nice to hear about everyone's backgrounds. Are you doing another FET this cycle?

Brit, I wouldn't think the hysteroscopy would interfere either. Let us know when you get your schedule.

I'm taking BCP now and I'll start lupron on June 6. I've gone through 3 fresh cycles. ET was cancelled for this last cycle. This will be my first FET.

Good luck - when do you start meds??

Hi ladies- I expect for af to come around June 1 and I will be starting my stims on day 3. It sounds like we will all be right around the same schedule. It will be nice to go through it together. Have a good weekend.

Hey Carolyn

Time is flying!!!...ya No Fat Lady singing for another 9 months for you....

So is it Lupron for you??

How lucky for you to have pleasant weather in UK, though I know rain can be very bugging at times. Here in India...its soooooo hot!! We are waiting for the monsoon to arrive soon.

Tomorrow again I am going to meet my doc and hopefully will start down regging soon.

Hi ladies, may I join you? My name is Emily. AF should arrive around June 3rd and I will be starting BCP's on day 2. I will be on then for 20 days or so until I make it on to the RE's schedule. Its my first IVF.

sonu911 · Post by **sonu911** » Wed May 28, 2008 5:22 pm

Hey Ladies

Emily...sure You can join us. You will be amazed to see the support here. All the Best for you journey.

So, here I begin my 4th and hopefully last IVF cycle... I started with Lupride (Lupron) from today. Inspired by Carolyn, I am planning to administer them myself. Doc's appointment was fine, he seemed to be contented...so I assume that everything is going as it should be.

Carolyn - I love your PMA....keep it going!!! yeah!!! all these lbs are worth it, we will worry about them next year.

I am feeling SO excited about this IVF journey, feels as if starting afresh!!
I am so thankful to God for this renewed PMA in me. I love HIM.

Hello ladies

Hi Emily - welcome to the thread and the IVF roller coaster - feel free to ask us any questions cos I am sure you will have lots - there is always someone on these forums who knows the answers and can help and support!

Sonu - you go girl with the injections - no where near as bad as I thought it would be! - did doc give you any anticipated dates for ER?

Hi to everyone else - where are you ???

PMA to everyone - all our dreams will come true x
lots of love

carolyn

Hi all I was hoping to join you as I too am starting my IVF journey. This is my first IVF cycle. I began Lupron on the 26th. I have my next appointment June 5th and if all is well begin stim meds on June 7th. We have been waiting for this for many years 7 to be exact. I have PCOS, endometriosis and a double uterus. DH is fine which is a plus. I have never been pregnant nor do I know if I have ever ovulated. I am very excited about this cycle but trying not to get my hopes up too much because as I am sure we all are sick of being dissapointed.

Hi everyone, hope its ok if I join in this thread? I go for baseline Friday.

I went to my med teaching class today it was FUN!! Ha ha I just can't wait to start injections tomorrow morning....NOT... I am SO NERVOUS!! This is all very new to me. I guess I will get used to it. My DH works 12 hour shifts so I am just going to do it all myself... NERVOUS!!!

I hope everyone is doing well!!

Hi ladies

Huge welcome to Chrissy and jcurlygirl

jcurlygirl - not sure whether you read back on thread but last cycle I did my DH did all my injections as I have a real needle phobia - well he now is away from home 3 nights per week with work - so this time I have had no choice apart from do them myself or not do IVF - so I have managed to do them - first few days were hard but now it has just become routine and does not even hurt - the worst bit was first time putting needle in myself - but believe me it has got much easier - plus I have a bit of extra belly padding which always helps in situations like this!! - Sonu (another buddy on this thread) has even decided after several rounds of treatment to self inject this time - girl power go - you can do it!!

Got to get to work now but promise will catch up with all posts over weekend

love to all
