Hi all.. I have never started a post before but I have read and responded a bit... I just wanted to vent a little..AF was supposed to be here today so I could start the BCP but here it is 1/2 way through the day and nothing... My cycles are always 25-28 days and this is CD 29...I am soo ready to start the meds and get this cycle going and now that I want AF to come she is taking her old sweet time! lol

I'm starting Lupron on Wed. and then a few more drugs after that--if all goes well, the transfer should happen around the 17th of August. The entire process (which started w/ birth control pills 2 weeks ago)will end up being about 6 weeks. Good luck to you!

No IVF here, but TOM my just be screwing with ya just because you're so nervous. I would tell you to relax, but I know that's not gonna happen. Don't worry, TOM will show up soon and hopefully you'll have some wonderful news for us not much longer after that. Good luck!
