Shari -- I'm sorry about your bfn in March. I also had bfn in April and can relate to how you feel. I felt the same way as I did when I had my miscarriage with my first IVF. With 7 great frosties, your chances are excellent!! People have said that frozens sometimes work better because they are easier on the body. This brings me hope too as we proceed with FET after a failed fresh. How many are you thinking to transfer?
Wanna -- NK are "natural killer" cells which are part of the immune system. High levels have been implicated in implantation failure and miscarriage. It is a blood test, and if levels of high, sometimes women are treated with ivig to suppress the immune system before transfer.
z-momma -- so exciting that you'll be the first up in June! I am close behind you on June 5! My protocol is similar but I am taking delestrogen injections every 2-3 days instead of estrace. Tonight I start PIO shots, plus doxycycline for 2 days, and medrol for 4 days.
