Julie, I actually tried Au naturale this month and we have our IVF consult tomorrow. I am waiting for to come but I hope she waits until tomorrow because my RE may start me on BCP's tomorrow if she doesn't start before then . is pretty on time every month and she has been stubborn but I took a HPT this morning and (no suprise)!

So ladies I have kinda started a new list (mocked from Feb. and Mar. ladies). This may be an easier way to track the status of everyone. If you want to be included, just copy and paste to a new post and add your name.

April Beginnings

I don't mean to be a downer, but I read one of the other threads where someone posted "I want to be a mom." I've been thinking about the one part of it yesterday and today...It talks about wanting to surprise your husband and family with the news of being pregnant, but because we have to go through IVF we can't. I think it's making me depressed. I remember daydreaming about how I would tell my DH and our families when we got pregnant...I thought up cute little things we could do instead of just coming out and telling them. Well now that we are doing IVF, we pray for a positive but because everything is so planned everyone is expecting the news and it's not a surprise. I feel like not telling anyone when we do our FET and hoping that we will finally get our BFP and can surprise our families at least. But then I think our families would be hurt if we do the FET and get another BFN and never told them. I don't know what to do. But it's not fair....
