Wow, it sounds like a lot of us are getting ready to go. Lot's of Ladies for May. Just remember May is mother's day month so I'm thinking we are all going to be granted our wish during that month. I just know it. How many first timers do we have? I'm a first timer. I try to read the signatures but don't always. I'm trying to remember where everyone is in the process to. I stop my BCP's on the 22nd and go in for my baseline sono/lab on the 25th. Stims begin the 27th. Can't wait. Good luck to all the Ladies of May.

After lurking through IVF #1, I'm ready to join you all. I started BCP yesterday in preparation for my first FET. We have two frozen; both are great quality. One has already hatched. I'm really hoping this time is the charm!
Good luck to everyone! -Tracy

Linz712-I am not sure if everyone has to do saline u/s. Im new to all this and just do what they say. My sister did IVF and did not do one. She lived in Florida at the time. I have not heard anything about a mock txr from my RE so Not sure if that just done on the same day. Wish I could help you more. Maybe ask your RE b/c it can't hurt only help.

Mama2Caden - This is my first cycle.
I just got an appt tomorrow for cycle day 3 bloodwork and an ultrasound. Yuck - who wants an ultrasound when is here. Okay so this has me a little uncomfortable but oh well. I'm sure the shots will be much worse. I hope that they will give me a better idea of the timing of when my retrieval will be.

u/s with AF are really no biggie, remember they do this all the time. I always wear a tampon and take it out right before I hop on the table and put one right back in when I am done. Good Luck

Hey girls!
We've been out of town since Thurs - I was lurking over the weekend a few times and posted a few replies - but didn't have much time. Glad to be back! Sorry to those who had a rough weekend!  Bottom line, IF sucks and the roller coaster of emotions can take its toll.......just do all you can do to stay positive and know that IT WILL HAPPEN FOR ALL OF US!!! to all the new Ladies of May!!!! Glad you've joined us and you'll find lots of support here!This is our 1st IVF. AF showed up this AM! Passing her on!!! Who's next??? Anyone else on cd1 today??? I am not doing bcp, going to start Lupron on cd21, then wait on AF again, and then stims next cycle. RE has not mentioned mock transfer, saline u/s or anything at this point. I start AP on Wed - I'm nervously excited!!! LOL - is that possible?????????? Next appt is 4/21 for post-lap appt and injection training.....I hope April goes f-a-s-t!!! I agree with the other girls, I have a great feeling that May will be the month for us!!!  to all!

There are sooo many of us cycling in May! Hooray! I just found out that I'll be starting Lupron on Saturday, 4/12, and will take that until 4/25 when I will go in for an E2 at which point (I think) I begin taking Estrace and take that for 19 days and then I have my FET! I think that puts me around mid-May for my actual transfer. This cycle is so wierd and different from a fresh cycle - which I unfortunately know backward and forward. It'll take some time getting used to but needless to say I'm beyond excited to get back on the horse!
to all the new gals! I'm really looking forward to getting to know all of you and cheering you on!
