No history. But after 2 IVF cycles and a m/c they wanted to make sure everything was in check.

I think that it might be a little on the long side, but every ER is different. If you have any concerns, I would schedule a counsult with your RE and ask him/her these questions. Maybe they want you on the bcps longer for better suppression. Maybe they will change the length of stims depending on how your bodt responds. Anyways, I would ask your RE quesitons until you are comfortable with the protocol.

Jana, I have to wait until my March AF, so I am just waiting and wiating and waiting... I also need to lose some weight before I start my IVF cycle. I absolutely love my carbs! Jana, you have a great idea in keeping chips out of the house. I have noticed that I have been eating more lately especially ice cream and sweets. I'm just gonna have to bite the bullet and get back on weight watchers I guess...It's so hard!!!

I just spoke to the IVF nurse and made an appointment for my consult to go over meds for the FET. Because I also have to meet with maternal fetal medicine (due to my thyroid issue) it looks like I won't start Lupron until the end of April. So I am also going to belong to the April/May group. I'm still going to post on this forum though since I already know you guys! I guess I will just be behind. I don't think the ET will be until mid-May. I am a little disappointed since I was hoping to have ET in April, but we will go with it...everything happens for a reason. Maybe a miracle will happen and I will get pregnant before my FET! Wouldn't that be great!!! Also, it gives me more time to lose some weight.

Thanks Janice! At least AF will be a start, I am getting so impatient waiting to start my BCPs!!!! And with no activity whatsoever (besides obsessing ofcourse) I am sure I will sprout roots from my backside and get stuck to my chair!
Then I have these moments when I daydream and 'slip' into character and then it hits me.... What if this IVF is successful? Am I prepared for a baby (or two)? My life would change drastically!!! Oh God, how can you want something so much and dread it at the same time??!!??

The list is so much easier to look at now. Thanks! Irena, I know what you. I want it so bad and then I am scared to death at the same time. Can I really do it?!?!?! I think it's a worry that any normal person would have.
