Deej,

Sorry about the stress with your mom. Even under the best of circumstances, the mother-daughter dynamic can be complicated. So I'm sure it's particularly challenging with a broken arm and an employment relationship.

As for the FET, I think most practices put you on lupron to suppress your cycle and then the doctors can better orchestrate the timing for the transfer (e.g., not on the weekends or a holiday.) But I always felt that lupron made everything a bit wonky, so this time, they just gave me estrace early in the cycle and progesterone after the transfer, but no lupron, and I feel as though I tolerated it much better.

Ona, I finally do have some pregnancy pics and just need to figure out the uploading. The tech guy at my work baby shower gave me a cd with pictures on it.

Kathryn.
