Hey all I got my protocol today. My IVF cycle officially starts on 4-18. I begin taking baby asprin and Dexamethasone. My DH has to take Doxycycline. My first sono/lab--baseline is 4-25 then Stimming begins on 4-27. I have to take Follistim 300u and Reponex 75 and Ganirelix. Estimated ER is the week of may 5th and ET the week of May 12th. I'm excited to get this started but the Class was a little overwhelming. So I'm just trying to process all the information.
Hop'n to be pregnant in May.

Hope,
Great job on getting all of your dates today.  I think you are the first of the May gals. I am counting the days to BCPs. Are you going to take BCPs or Lupron?

I may be joining the May group will know more after AF arrives. I have to do estrogen patches but don't start them until CD 24 after AF starts. Too late this time around.

 I have never been on that protocol. It sounds very interesting to me. I am sure your dr. wouldn't try it if he didn't know anything about it. Keep us informed.

Hi girls! Can I join?
I just went to my Re consult today after another failed and very strange IUI cycle. We all decided that IVF was the best option right now with cost, time and emotional aspects considered. I'm surrently on BCP- and need to call the IVF nurse in the next few days to set everything up. (Waiting on final cost to be sure we can do this- but it's about a 95% go). I'm so pumped! He thinks we are great candiates and we are ready to go!

Pray2bmom, I'm already on the BCP and will be stopping that on 4/22. I will be on Ganirelix instead of Lupron. Not sure when I will be starting that. My baseling scan will be on 4/25. Can't wait. I'm getting pumped. I do have to have some blood work done before, so dose my DH and I also have to have a sonohysteography and cervical cannulation. I'm hoping to have those done next week. We are on our way.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm just kind of heartbroken right now. Just found out SIL is pregnant, her second month of trying clomid. She's 3 years younger than me, and has only been married for a year and a half. We've been married for 5 and trying for over 2. Her and her DH fight all the time, they're so immature. I want to be happy but I am just so bitter! It should have been me! Worst part is- this is going to be the first grandchild, and I know the inlaws are going to be going crazy with excitement and wanting to talk about to everyone. I'm just sick. I don't want to feel this way, but I just do and it just sucks! It's going to be a long 9 months- can I just go crawl in a hole until I get preg too?! I really hope this IVF in May works, I'm going to go nuts waiting until then. Sorry for the vent,thanks for listening.

Lindsay, I'm so sorry you are going through the IF journey. I have watched my younger sister give birth to 4 children and just had to smile and deal with it. I love each one of my neices and my nephew, but I want my turn too. Feel free to vent when you need to.
