Name: Nicki
Age at conception: 27
Diagnoses: MFI
Treatments you tried before IVF: BBT, OPK, Clomid, ICSI
How many fresh and frozen cycles before success: 1 fresh ICSI, 1st FET successful
Protocol (meds taken): clomid, follistim, repronex, zithromax, BCP, lupron, estrace by mouth and suppositories, progesteron IM shots, assisted hatching meds, and of course prenatals, baby aspirin, folic acid and probably a few others
Complimentary treatments (acupuncture, massage, etc.): none
How many days bedrest (if any): day of transfer plus 2
How many and quality/rating of embryos/blasts transferred: 3 excellent 5d blasts
Symptoms or issues during your successful 2WW: terribly sore boobs! fatigue
HPT before blood test?: nope didn't wanna jinx it
What day you got your BFP: Sep06
Number of first beta: don't remember, it was pretty high though
Number of babies: 2 on first u/s, only 1 hb by 12 wks
Advice for those going through FET now: Just hang in there and get yourself a good support system. This is so hard to go through by yourself! And I agree with what a lot of women are saying Frozen is so much easier on your body then Fresh. I hyperstimed on the fresh and if I had to do that part over I don't think I could. So I'm very glad I've got 5 snowbabies!
