Welcome Caryn! Of course you can join! It's nice to meet you. Is this your first IVF cycle?
Hi Kalmi,
I know, the other threads have so many people and it gets all confusing. I'm so glad you got your appt for the acupuncturist. I start my acupuncture again this Friday. I went to the doctor yesterday for an ultrasound to make sure my follicles are going back down so that I can start my stims soon. Looks like we are shooting for a July 5th or 6th ER and July 8th or 9th for the ET. I start my BCP tonight and according to my calendar I start my 10 units lupron on June 18th and start my stims the morning of June 19th.
I'm so glad your mock ET went well. I too have a retroverted uterus...there are only 20% of women who have retroverted. Most are intraverted.
I wish my insurance could pay for this IVF cycle, but we used up all our insurance coverage on IVF #1. All meds and procedures including acupuncture is all out of pocket on this cycle, but that's okay...it's worth it. My husband travels a lot too unfortunately so I know how you feel. I hate when he's gone, but it's because of his job that we can even afford this. When do you start your stims? Good luck with the acupuncture...let me know how it goes.
Ambyr
