IVF here we come.

The hubs and I went in on Friday to meet with my RE about taking the next step.  I am so freaking scared and not sure what to think.  Do I try IUI one more time or do I proceed with IVF?  There was so much paper work to go over and my RE and everyone in that office is so nice and supportive.  For so long I've been "no way" about IVF but my desire to be a mother again is leading me down that path.  I don't want to wait until I'm older and miss the good opportunity for success that my current age group has but I'm scared. We are OOP and it's a lot of $$$ right now but my hubby is all for it and is ready to do whatever it takes (thank God) but I still worry.  Was anyone else freaked out by the initial appointment or am I just being a big baby and a worry wart?  

Sorry this is so long and rambling. . .

The first appt was a little scary but it is also an exciting time! Good luck! Ask any questions you want! I would love to be of any help.

When we started, I would go through about 100 emotions a minute, I think that's normal. We're here for support and I'm excited that your giving yourself this chance at another baby!

Very exciting!!! i think its natural to be a little worried about the first IVF, esp. when its so $$. The hardest part for me was not to stress about everything! ?:)

I haven't done IVF (yet!), but it's next on the radar for me, so I will probably need to start thinking about it too!  I would be totally overwhelmed too....I think it's normal. 

Good luck!!!!

Thanks ladies I knew I could count on you all to prop me up when I am down.  As always a good night sleep helps everything to look better and my hubby is willing to try whatever it takes to make it happen.

AF arrived this morning and I made the call to the RE.  The loan is in place and we are ready to rock and roll.

I was really bummed out by mom's reaction because she is so not supportive.  (I think she's the biggest worry wart on the planet!!!)  I haven't really had a chance to sit down and explain everything to her though so hopefully once I do that she'll be more accepting.

I'm sure I'll have a million questions for you all.  Thanks for the support!!!!

I never ever thought I would do IVF and my DH was like "OK, we'll do it" so I know where you are coming from!  Now look at me doing a DE cycle!  You can never say never!!

GL!!!!!
