Hi Ladies!!!

I just started my BCP today for my 1st ever IVF! I have done 7 months of clomid, one month of Follistim, and 4 IUI's. I got a BFP on my very last Follistim/IUI cycle in July, but sadly it ended up being ectopic. I had surgery to remove my right tube a week ago, and my HCG level today was less than 1, so I got to start on my IVF protocol today! YAY! I'm so excited, but I'm terrified at the same time!

According to my IVF calendar, I will be on birth control until September 18th, will start on stims (Follistim) on September 21st, will have my my retreival on approximately October 1st, and my transfer on approximately October 4th!

I would love to have some more ladies join me in this IVF journey!! Newbies and veteran IVF'ers are absolutely welcome!! The more the merrier!!!

Loads of babydust and stickyglue ladies!!!

HI Meg

I am sorry to hear about your ectopic! I also had an ectopic and lost a tube in May, it was after my 1st IUI. I had my second IUI in July but my right ovary is dominant and my right tube is gone so I just ran out of patience! Now on to IVF!!! AHHH I am done with my BCP on 9/7 start stims 9/11 will have ER the week of 9/21. I'm so excited but so nervous too!!! I went for my IVF class on Tuesday to learn how to inject the meds ,etc. I go next Thursday for my sounding. I am just hoping this whole process goes smoothly and we end up with a BFP!!! It sounds like I'm about a week ahead of you but we are cycle buddies!! I am also doing Follistim.

Good Luck to us all!!

YAY!! Fellow IVF'ers!!! Welcome everyone!

Waiting, it will be great to have a cycle buddy, even if you are a bit ahead of me=). Woo hoo!!! And I'm scared too! I just hope it works!

Laura, you are going to know all there is to know about all of this before you do it in May at this rate - rock on!

Rose, you have a September 21st retreival date, so you will be literal cycle buddies with Waiting. How awesome!

Hey Chels! How have you been? How much different is an ED cycle than if you were using your own eggs? Is it still a fresh cycle? Would you do it just like a FET cycle since you wouldn't need to use stims? Do you have to wait for the donor to be ready to go through the process before you will know your IVF calendar? Sorry to ask so many questions, you of course don't have to answer if you don't want to. Either way, I'm so excited for you!

I'm thrilled to have other people to go through this crazy IVF rollercoaster with! It's amazing what we will do to our bodies for a little bundle of joy! Totally worth it if it works though, right?! Hoping for lots of BFP's and sticky beans ladies!!!

I'm actually choosing to do it like a FET so I don't hv to take any meds. I cd do a fresh cycle but I wd hv to match her cycle with meds like b/c pills and lupron. I am not good with lupron so what will happen is she will go thru the IVF and then at retrevial they will call DH in for fertilization then they will freeze embryos. Once I surge they will hv me come in for transfer. I'm waiting to hear where in her cycle she is now and it's so hard to wait!! lol
