May I join? I'm on IVF #1 (with PGD for RT) I wasn't sure I'd be a May IVF'er (thought June) but when AF arrived last week, I was given an estimated ER date of 5/28.
My schedule is an antagonist protocol. BCPs until 5/9, wait for AF/start stims 5/16 (at the latest) with 450ius of gonal-f then add cetrotide. Estimated ER of 5/28, a day 5 a-CGH (for PGD) to look for any unbalanced translocations, then a day 6 ET. FX for lots of embees to test and for one or two "normals"
HUGE hugs to Annalisel....

Night two of stims went much better than the first. I was able to do both injections by myself without any issues.
QOTD: If money weren't a factor, I'd redo several areas in our house. The house isn't bad, but I'd like to update the kitchen backsplash/counters, get new vanities in the bathrooms, and finish half of our basement. But at this point, all of those things are on the back burner for another few years. Thank you, IF.

QOTD: If I had the all of the uninterrupted time and all of the money needed, I would work on finishing quite few projects around the house. I would finish painting the house, rip up the carpet and replace the floors (due to one cat that couldn't figure out the purpose of a litter box), build the deck off the back of the house, and build a shed/garage.
Hugs to Analisel. I would like to be added to this group. I am between ER and ET. ET will be between May 1-3rd.

Update on me (also can I be added please?): currently I am on Lupron, I got in on May 3rd for a suppression check!

Update on me: I'm on Lupron now and starting stims on May 3. My DH will be at a bachelor party in Vegas for ET day so I asked my BFF to come with me. She lives about 5 hours away and has 3 kids but said she would come! How many other times will she get to watch a friend get ku? Lol.
Qotd: I would clean out and organize our office if I had the time. Actually I do have the time since I was off for a week for spring break (I'm a teacher). So what I really need is motivation!
Update: Please move me back to "On BCP's" - booooo - I was delayed due to a cyst and now back on these damn BCP's once again. I go in for a check next Saturday to see if the cyst has gone. It came about while on BCP so the RE was completely weirded out, but it is estrogen producing so we need to wait it out. Ugh.
Hugs to Annalisel for getting cancelled. I've been there - the thyroid is a tricky matter. I hope it gets settled soon.
QOTD: I'd organize EVERYTHING and completely revamp my business website.

QOTD--I am hoping to clean up our landscaping. Bought a house last year and we need to completly redo the beds.
My update--started stimming, ER should hopefully be with in the week. So far there are 25 little follies.
(((HUGS))) to Annalisel I'm sorry your cycle was canceled!
Update: Still just stimming away, nurse said I prob wont be going in for ER until after the 13th or 14th of May so we will see what happens at my baseline sono on the 7th.
QOTD: I just decided this weekend to re-do the landscaping, so I would have to say to reorganize everything in the house, plus rip up the old carpet and put down some new flooring. Thanks to IF though I will be lucky if I am able to reorganize the house, much less get new flooring.
I am officially stimming (as of last night), yipee!
I am a serial redecorator/remodeler around our house. We promised not to do anything this year because with the added expense of treatments we need to consolidate finances. Instead I would love to work on getting a real estate license over the next year. Then I can help other people spend their money and I could work in the summers when I'm not teaching. Hopefully we'll get pregnant and I can chase children instead, but it's good to have a plan B!
