Upcoming FET?

This thread is for anyone in the middle of an FET cycle or planning one, anytime! It's meant to be a perpetual thread so the few of us doing FETs can hang out together. Natural or controlled FET cycles welcome, as well as people who've done FETs in the past!

My nausea has gotten worse, so I'm going out today in search of remedies - pregnancy pops, ginger syrup, etc.

Yay, it's August!

Hi ladies, I'm going to join your thread even though my FET is probably still kind of far off. I'm finishing up my first IVF cycle and my beta numbers aren't doubling correctly. I go in today for an u/s to see if they can see a sac or an ectopic, but it's not looking like this BFP will bring me a baby. I am kind of a planner and we have 8 snowbabies frozen from this cycle and will plan to move into an FET as soon as we can after I get AF and my hcg levels get back to zero. The nurse at my RE says not to give up hope yet, but I just like to be realistic and be prepared.
to everyone!

Yuck for the nausea, but yay for August!
I don't know if this will help or not- but my SIL who is 24 wks. preg with twins said sometimes drinking lemonade would help her- something to do with the sourness. She told me about it when I had OHSS in May and was terribly nauseous- and I thought it helped- just a thought- good luck on your remedie search!

I made the switch! It's nice to start fresh over here. Will we get a list going like on the other thread? I am on lupron and restart estrace tomorrow. My FET is scheduled for 08/20.

Thanks, Irena, for getting this started!
