TTC After a Loss 6 Months+
Options

Too many freakin' meds.

Check out the list of meds my RE just emailed me for this FET cycle that started today;

Prenatal Vitamin, Baby Aspirin, Estradoil Injections, Metformin, Progesterone in Oil Injections, Doxycycline, Medrol, Endometrin Suppositories, Lovenox Injections.

Seriously?  That's 10 meds, 3 of which are daily injectables. I am going to feel like a walking pharmacy.  Because of my blood clotting discovery I am now taking more meds than I did for my fresh IVF cycle. 

Anyway, FET is scheduled for October 29th at 2pm.  Happy Halloween to me and my embie-popsicles.

    The Halloween FET is awesome, because that totally justifies you laying on the couch and not sharing the chocolate with the children who come to the door.

    I was just thinking as I was reading this that it was way more meds then your first round of IVF.  Im thinking they've got all bases covered and agree with Carrie, definately means you don't have to share the candy!!

    BTW, I was on a similar protocol for IVF#2.  The worst part is the PIO!  The rest was no big deal.  I really do think this is gonna be the one for you!!

    Carrie is wise!!!

    And yeah, once I added up all the meds I had ever taken over the course of my ttc journey - utterly depressing!!!

    But like everyone said (and I know you already know), it will be SOO worth it in the end. Fingers and toes crossed and keep us posted sweetie.

    Hugs!!

    Well thanks Luna!  I miss seeing you around here!  I am not on much myself anymore either....

    I hope this one is it.  I mean, WTF else could possibly be wrong with me at this point?  They said if I m/c again it is because of genetics since we got everything else covered.  This whole process just sucks.

    Sending lots of good luck your way.  The first time I took the doxy it made me get sick, the second cycle I took it for I was fine. Hope it doesn't make you feel sick, just wanted to let you know so you can be prepared.
