October 2009 IVF?

Well, I thought I was going to do my first IVF in April. Nope. Then we thought June. Nope. August? Nope. September? Right on track... Nope. So we are doing our first IVF in October. It's official.... I have my schedule plan and payment is due!

So is anyone else getting ready to do IVF in October? I figured it is about time to get a thread going! I will be starting stims soon, and guess I am not the only one!

I look forward to hearing from everyone!

Please God let this be our time!

It's in God's Hands I just need to leave it there!

He will never give me more than I can handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much!

Don't worry about anything, instead pray about everything. Tell God whay you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Philippians 4:6

When you go throught deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. Isaih 43:2

God- Grant me the serenity to change the things I can, accept the things I can't, and the wisdom to know the difference.

I was just thinking about starting an October thread! This will be my 2nd IVF cycle. Got preggers with the first, but ended up in m/c as you can see from my sig. We were shooting for August, then September, but it looks like October will be it. I'm so excited to get started again. It has taken me some time to get over the heartbreak in May, so it's been good to have some time off from the madness . The fall is my favorite time of year, I hope it brings us all lots of luck .

At this point, we are looking at an October IVF cycle as well. I kept looking to see if a thread had been started yet. This will be our first round. We will be doing a round of mini IVF, due to our problem being male factor and still being relatively young. I am nervous, yet excited at the same time. Hopefully we will have good luck.

to all and hoping for 's for everyone!

So glad to see this thread started!! Really hoping to be joining you ladies!! I had to take Methatrexate in July for an ectopic so we have to wait 3 months before we can even attempt to get preggo. That would be October, right? This will be IVF #4 for us (which I can't even believe I am saying... we said we wouldn't do more than 2). Really hoping this will be the one!

Yhea!! We are already strating quite the group!!

Mommyinny: I can't seem to add to the calender - any advice on how to do this?

Everyone - this is our time for our BFP!!

AFM: I have my trial transfer next Friday and some of my medicine and general IVF training. After that we wait - again Until AF comes and then we jump into the game. I have a pretty tilted uterus so I hope the trial transfer goes well. I guess with my HSG the Dr. had a heck of time getting the cathader where he wanted it - he said I was doing very well because though it was uncomfortable it wasn't that bad. He said I had a 'good tolerance' - which I found funny because I have always thought I have a low pain threshold. But I guess when there is a bigger goal in mind you just 'grin and bear it' Looking forward to getting to know all of you a little better and support one another!!
