  • Updates: 9 days until we get our Tx plan from Dr. KK!!! I cannot wait! My RE nurse is confirming a mid-November ER/ET with our donor. Hopefully she's ok with that timeline, because we want to give Dr. KK a chance to work her magic. I will start BCPs with my next period, probably around 10/1.

    Weekend Plans: I'm meeting two girlfriends for two separate runs. Saturday will be an easy run, and Sunday is a 20 mile training run. I have some domestic stuff to do, and am most looking forward to pulling the reading room together (we turned the should-be-a-nursery into a reading room. I'm currently gliding along in my new chair & ottoman as I type this!).

    On My Mind: I wonder what Dr. KK will think of me running before my transfer. Is there a possibility of an autoimmune response that could negatively affect our cycle if I run too much or too hard before transfer?

    On day 2 of progesterone to get my cycle started after being canceled. My WTF is on Monday. I so wish I had a valium to take before the appt. I'm going to be a hot mess. I wrote down my questions and I've already warned my husband that he might need to ask them. As for the weekend, we have two family parties to go to and hope to get in a hike tomorrow.

  • Hey girls,

    @Twinkie0612 - hope you get your calendar soon and got a bit of rest this weekend

    @sorrellam30 - I'm so frustrated for you! I hope you get news that you can start soon! Hope you went shopping and were not productive!

    @Lacyj67 - hope PJ's appt went well. Sounds like you had a fun/busy weekend planned!

    @RunCC37 - let us know about KK's plan! Hope you had a good weekend with your friends

    @Ronniesgirl1981 - so sorry for all you are going through. when is your wtf? There have been lots of times my H has had to speak for me because I just couldn't do it for myself anymore; I totally understand. I'm glad you are getting some 2nd opinions

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Busy week for me with traveling to NJ and back. Mock transfer went perfectly (I'm not sure why my transfers can be so difficult and the mock was nothing...but whatever). Having a really hard time getting my former clinic to get paperwork faxed and sent to my new clinic.

    Got an email Thursday my cycle was going to be post poned if they didn't get the thaw protocol by the end of the day (that I have been requesting for days)...I had to get my H involved. I'm not sure how he did it, but I had called more than 5x and got nowhere and my H got it done in 20 min.

    A lot of the time I think to myself that I'm not even sure why I am doing any of this anymore.       Who cares if it's postponed? Who cares if I don't get x, y or z done...I don't believe it's going to work anyway.

     

    Saturday was good. My H and I went on a date and walked around a local city. We sat outside and had dinner with a couple pumpkin beers with cinnamon and sugar rims. It was a really nice day-

    Hope everyone has a good week

    @Km672 - I'm sorry you not feeling good about your upcoming cycle. I am keeping everything crossed things turn out positive!!

    @Lacyj67 - I hope you had a great weekend with PJ

    @ronniesgirl1981 - GL tomorrow!!

    @Twinkie0612 - I hope you get your calendar soon!

    @sorrellam30 - So frustrating! I hope are able to start soon!

    @RunCC37 - I will be stalking you for your Dr. KK update.

    @Ronniesgirl1981 - ((Hugs)) 2nd opinions are always a good thing!!

    Now that the weekend is over, I'll update. I was on-call most of the weekend, but I was able to get noon- nine covered, so I went to a local amusement park with my mom and sister. It was pouring rain, but such a good time.

    Update on me: I received the second half of my calendar.  I've been testosterone and estrogen priming for 8 days now, only 28 to go.  Then depending on when CD1 is, it looks like I will be starting stims on Oct.20th. Gawd I hope I respond!!
