We got our appointment for our IVF consult but...

Mrs.Voz

I am so excited! But confused!  We were able to get in on March 4th for our IVF Consult.  But I just got promoted at work!  I am going to be working with a new department.  I don't want to start immediately into IVF because I figured the stress of a new job and all would be too much. 

I figured I would keep the March 4th appointment and go through with the ultrasound and mock transfer but give myself two months before starting the process.  Or should I cancel the appointment and reschedule in May?  I just figured it would be best to go through this now just in case the ultrasound picked up a concern. 

Any thoughts woudl be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I would keep your consult. It usually takes me about 2 months to start cycling after a consult because I have to wait for insurance approval.

It's probably going to take some time bfore you actually get to IVF anyway.  There is nothing rong with doing to consult now.  You might have bloodwork to redo and maybe some additional tests that you have to undergo before you even start about 3 weeks or so of bcps before your baseline.  So it could easily be a couple months before you'd be starting stims.

Good luck with the new job   How exciting!

Thanks, ladies!  I wasn't sure if it was an immediate start after the consult so that is good to know that there might be time!  Yeah! I feel better!  Thanks!

 And thanks, kgs, on the 'luck wish'!  I am really excited... and nervous... but really excited!  I'll be traveling more in the beginning so I was worried that that could be another added stress.  I feel better knowing that May would be a smoother month. :-)

I'd keep your consult as well.  The whole IVF process takes a while anyway.  Good luck!!
