Feb 2010 FET?

Cranking up for a February FET and didn't see a thread so I thought I would start one. As you can see from my signature, I miscarried in November. They said I could do the FET in Jan. but it is an extremely busy and stressful time at work so we decided to wait until early Feb. I started BCP's on the 7th and will continue until the 10th of Jan. We have an U/S tentatively scheduled for Jan 28th and the FET tentatively scheduled for Feb 3rd. I am excited to start the process again and hoping for a better outcome this time!

Hi Ladies, I am hoping to get more info. next week if I get the green light (finally) to do my FET. Not sure if it will be Jan./Feb. or ever, but I wanted to say hello!

I am sure you ladies know this since you have been on the forum a while, but thought I'd share in case you didn't:
Taylor- there is a great DE IVF group on here. Many ladies doing FET as well. If you are interested take a look... go to Infertility treatments and then the Donor issues tab. We'd love to have you there!

Onloan- There is also a singles thread, if you are so inclined to check it out sometime... go to the relationships category and then once there click the 'talking to others' tab. Just wanted to let you know!

Jessica- I may be in the same predicament with Jan/Feb. (or I sure hope I am!)

Wishing all of us much success for fullterm healthy pregnancys in 2010!

Happy Holidays!

Just came to know that my IVF did not work, tho i was aware of the outcome 2 days back. After crying and not sleeping and being completely exhausted, i am trying to get into normalcy..which is so hard...nothing you ladies do not know. Since i have frosties left..i am thinking of doing a frozen cycle instead of a fresh IVF. I need to talk to my RE about what went wrong...and put up a plan. I am assuming i will get the process going in Feb....and i just wanted to drop in and say hi!

Godiva4me--- THANKS for that tidbit on the singles thread!!!! I am going to check that out!

Iloveoange--- I know about that frustration all too well. Keep positive! Look forward to cycling with you in February!!!!


AFM-- I just had my sonohystogram today... I had really bad polyps removed in November and we wanted to make sure they didn't come back... I saw a perfectly shaped uterus, indicating that there are no growth abnormalities. YAY!!!!

Anyway, you ladies have a GREAT holiday!!! Enjoy and reflect, because this time next year we will have beautiful bundles of joy to share the holiday with!

Onloan..great that everything is looking great.. Tho we never cycled together till now...i feel i know you well, coz i was a constant lurker in the Nov IVF boards...and actually went thru so many emotions with some of the ladies!

AFM...i am meeting my RE on the 6th of Jan. She is such a doll, she called me up and i could hear in her voice how bad she felt that it did not work for me...but she is quite confident that i will have a baby soon...and that gives me a lot of solace.

I'd like to join. I began taking BCP's on 12/10 and my RE wants me to take 1 full pack and either 1/2 or another pack. I'll know more before the end of the year. We would have started earlier, but because of all my body has been thru, my RE suggested we hold off. It's been a long 4 months.

After Christmas, I'm calling to get my dates and I still need to have another mock transfer.

I will start my BCPs in January. Hopefully around the 15th. I am a little worried that won't show up on time.

When are you starting your BCPs?

Feb FET

Hi ladies... I'm on board as well... Just waiting for my period this month so I can start BC.

Started all this September and ended up with a bad case of OHSS so we couldn't do the transfer, but ended up with 9 frozen, so here we go again!

However my doctor said success rates with FET are higher than live transfer, 76%, so that is positive. ]

Looking forward to having other ladies to chat with through this...

Good luck everyone!
