Hi, girls,
My last IUI #3 was BFN, so I posted my status on Sunday. I was mentally numb for 2 days and then I called my RE on Tue to report my BFN. They put me on BCP right away since I was on CD3 (I guess CD3 is the magic word!), so I have officially entered into IVF!
My consultation is tomorrow and RE will go over my protocol. IVF Financial & Educational sessions are held next week, so I feel like I am driving a Lamborghini on Autobahn
I have a lot of thinking and anxiety, but it won't do any good to me, so I will keep myself really really positive. I always cry watching Bill&Giuliana, but I am thankful for their positive outlook in their life and I want to be like them! Looks like I will be on BCP for a couple of weeks, so I will indulge myself with wine & dinner dates with my DH and high impact sports like Hot Yoga
Good luck everyone and thank you for your support!

Re: I am on the IVF express way!
After 2 years of IF workups/treatments and 2 IUIs, we have closed the door on fertility treatments.
We are very excited to be pursuing international adoption from China!

Wow that's fast! I have my IVF consult on the 15th. I just signed and sent back all the consent forms today.. Sh*t gets real when you have to decide what to do with embryos in the event of divorce or death.
Good luck to you!

Enjoy your wine and DH, and good luck!

Absolutely!
I have no idea what my protocol will look like but am hoping to fine tune that tomorrow.
We didn't do any IUI''s so I'm just hoping we are really good to go tomorrow and they aren't going to come back at us with another list of things to complete before we can start!
This whole thing is just so overwhelming!
Good luck to you guys!

IVF is certainly a lot to absorb! Have you lurked Infertility board? Many girls there are on IVF path, so it's so educational. U should check it and intro if you haven't. Thinking of you and Good luck 2morror!!!
