moving forward with IVF

cutebride73

I talked to the IVF coordinator at my RE today and luckily AF's early arrival didn't mess anything up.  But, when things start moving, they are really going to be moving!!  I am going tomorrow for my consult and then I have to go back Thursday morning for my cd 3 u/s and b/w. 

Then next Thursday I will have another SHG done and my mock transfer.  DH needs to have a SA and b/w as well.  Then on the 18th we have to meet with my RE to go over the test results and dicuss the procedures; the IVF coordinator to discuss the timeline and the financial people.  I do have some insurance and so the cycle should be covered, except for the cyropreservation, which is $1500.  One of my questions is what happens if you pay the fee and then there are no embryos that make it to freeze - I would hope that we would get our money back. 

I ended up having to tell my boss b/c of all of the time I am going to need off.  He knew we were having issues TTC and about my losses.  He is being really great about me taking time off - coming in late and leaving early.   

I also talked to my hemotologist and she said if my protocol is going to include BCP's that I will have to start taking lovenox at the same time to counter any possible blood clots.  When I told my coordinator that, she said when people have clotting issues, they sometimes don't use BCP's, but just start Lupron on CD 21.  So we'll see what happens I guess. 

I am a nervous wreck right now!!!

I can certainly imagin your nervousness!  I am sure it is going to be a lot to take in.  That's good that you could talk to your boss and that he's so understanding!  Good luck at your consult tomorrow.

Good luck, hon!  So great that you have a supportive boss. 

It can be so nerve-wracking!  It helped me to take it one day at a time - just to focus on the next follie scan, blood work, appointment.  Once you start stims, all those appointments make it go by so fast!

Thanks!!  It is overwhelming.  I still need to get everything into my calendar - hopefully seeing it all laid out will make it easier to deal with.

Isn't it crazy how things seem to move so slowly (2ww, waiting for AF, whatever) and then all of a sudden it's like 1,000 miles an hour?  So excited for you! Good luck, I hope this is the one

Wow seems like you have your plan all in place.  That is great!  I can understand why you are nervous though.  Good Luck!  I'll be rooting for you.

Thumbs up for your Boss!  I love it when bosses are actually understanding and compassionate...so many just are not.  :-)

Sounds exciting!  Best of luck with your testing.  Things do fly pretty quickly through this process.  Just try to take things one day at a time and it isn't so bad.  I wish you the very best of luck!
