I know it's weeks away but I'm starting this thread now because I am SO EFFING EXCITED for April and I know there are lots of us planning cycles right now. I'll be doing a FET with 2 blasts towards the end of the month as long as my cycle cooperates!
Happy April !!!!How is everyone doing? I have my timeline and start Lupron tomorrow. It is nice to have the game plan so I can plan the month. Where is everyone else at? My FET date is on the 29th due to my Dr. going on vacation(so now I have to wait an entire extra week..ugh). I am probably the last one in the group to have a transfer in April so I will be cheering everyone else on. Good luck and baby dust to all. You all greatly deserve it:)
My baseline is this morning!! And I will add my estrogen to the mix later today when my bloodwork comes back. As long as everything looks good today, my donor starts her stims on Saturday! Transfer will be around the 20th. This is starting to get real.
I am so excited for everyone cycles and really hope we get lots and lots of BFPs!!!
I'm sorry you had to push back your FET Rollercoasterride but you still have a date and April 29th sounds like a lucky date to me :)
Good Luck with your baseline today LMWT!
I am currently on day 6 of stims and feeling great. They did up my dosages starting last night and added in Ganirelix. I go back Thursday for another us and blood work and their was mention of retrieval on Sunday or Monday. I can't believe how fast this is happening!
Hope, I can not wait to hear how things are looking on Thursday!!!
LMWT - I have been taking estrogen shots in the butt every 3rd night. I am about to add in the progesterone shots in the butt every night. Do those hurt a lot worse than the estrogen shots?
My estrogen is oral. Three pills a day. So I have no idea if PIO shots are worse or better than estrogen shots. I find the PIO shots are not too bad its the residual soreness that kills me. I find iceing before the PIO helps and then heating the muscle when it is really sore helps with the residual soreness. I also find switching sides every night does help. It also depends on needle gauge. My two clinics use difference size needles and the larger ones definitely hurt more. Good luck with the PIO!
My donor starts stims tomorrow!!! Two weeks and I will be PUPO!!!
Hows everyone else doing?
RB, how have your follies looked? How many do you have? Have a fantastic ER! I think you are the first one so you will be leading the pack to all of our BFPs!
JV, having my schedule in hand always makes it feel real. Hope baseline goes well!
Donor started stims today and I have this really weird feeling. Hard not having control when I was so OCD about my meds during my other IVFs.
Fingers crossed for all of us that April is a GREAT Month of BFPs!
LMWT, I imagine it would be hard to not think about it. I have 2 coworkers who had successful donor cycles, so try to not over think it.
Trigger shotting today!!! Transfer on Wed! Hope to have a good strong bunch!
