Hi there everyone. I have been a lurker here for quite some time now! The amount of support and goodwill flowing out here is quite incredible!! When I couldnt conceive at first, I used to lurk around the General infertility forums, then when we discovered DH's azoospermia, I found all my answers here on the IVF forum. Thanks to you lovely people, nothing was a shock to me, it was as if I knew what to expect AND that there was lots of hope for me. Someday I WILL be a mommie.
![]() So now we are going through IVF/ICSI in April 2008. I would be starting my bcp's in March. Want buddies to make this journey easier for me Thanks and God bless you all

I too will probably be starting sometime the middle of April. We have an ART class to go to in March (I think it's just about the injections). Hopefully I will find out then when they are going to do the HSG and the cervical cannulation. I'm already on the BC pills as I had endo with three failed IUI's. So we are moving on. I would love a buddies to share the experience. I'm not afraid of the shots or needles. I'm more concerned about the emotional toll.

I just got the call for my IVF consult this week. We go to Calgary for this on Mar. 6 & 7 after waiting for not quite 4 months. I'm not sure how long it will take once we register until the procedure to take place. I wish everyone good luck and pray we all get our bfps really soon!

Thanks babybearjmd, I will join the azoospermia thread too as ICSI with non motile sperm and round headed spermatids will be quite a challenge! I just hope the chemistry between my DH and I translates into a good fertilisation between our eggs and sperm
![]() As for my IVF/ICSI cycle, I would be starting with the bcp's as soon as my AF comes (1st or 2nd March) then start Gonal-F from the 14th day and hopefully have my ER by 10-12th April. Just need to find out the fertilisation rate in cases like mine and what day embryo to transfer.
