I get to join! I had my WTF appt today and my RE gave me the choice between a late June or late July ER/ET for IVF #2 (the lab is closed the 1st 2 weeks of July). I think we will just go for it and stick with June.
My IVF nurse is going to call me to get a calendar set up, so we will know our tentative dates pretty soon.
I have been sort of been on a needed hiatus from the boards and it was time well spent. I surprised DH a couple weeks back with an all inclusive long weekend away to celebrate our anniversary and his 30th Birthday. He was totally shocked by my top secret tactics when we arrived at the airport with his pre packed bags ready to board an airplane! His expression was priceless! We had such a great trip that was long overdue!
Since getting home, I have been trying to get back to "normal" good for mind, body, soul non-IF related stuff. I have been working on household projects, exercising, cooking, baking...all that good stuff and it has been great for my overall happiness. So much of my life has been solemnly revolved around cycling this past year and our mini vacation gave us both a chance to step away to reassess the situation at hand.
With all that said, this FET cycle is going better than any other cycle (so far). From a mental point of view. I feel at peace with what is meant to be will be. I am hoping for our long awaited miracle, but prepared to deal with a(nother) let down.
Best of luck to all the June Bugs! Happy cycling!

Hmm. Maybe check with your RE. I have heard the heat applied from the heating pad can warm up the ute and get the lining nice and plush. Hopefully what I have heard is true and your RE can give you the go ahead! Either way, fingers crossed for you and your ute...sending lots of triple stripe lining vibes.

Re: ~~~June Bugs~~~
I get to join! I had my WTF appt today and my RE gave me the choice between a late June or late July ER/ET for IVF #2 (the lab is closed the 1st 2 weeks of July). I think we will just go for it and stick with June.
My IVF nurse is going to call me to get a calendar set up, so we will know our tentative dates pretty soon.
Hi June Bugs!
I have been sort of been on a needed hiatus from the boards and it was time well spent. I surprised DH a couple weeks back with an all inclusive long weekend away to celebrate our anniversary and his 30th Birthday. He was totally shocked by my top secret tactics when we arrived at the airport with his pre packed bags ready to board an airplane! His expression was priceless! We had such a great trip that was long overdue!
Since getting home, I have been trying to get back to "normal" good for mind, body, soul non-IF related stuff. I have been working on household projects, exercising, cooking, baking...all that good stuff and it has been great for my overall happiness. So much of my life has been solemnly revolved around cycling this past year and our mini vacation gave us both a chance to step away to reassess the situation at hand.
With all that said, this FET cycle is going better than any other cycle (so far). From a mental point of view. I feel at peace with what is meant to be will be. I am hoping for our long awaited miracle, but prepared to deal with a(nother) let down.
Best of luck to all the June Bugs! Happy cycling!

Hey June Bugs!!!
I am still on Lupron and now awaiting my period. I think this is the first time that I can't wait for it to show up!!
see more After 12
Just because something isn't happening for you right now doesn't mean it will never happen.
IUI #1 - BFN IUI #2 - BFN
IVF - Starting injects May 25 IVF #1 - BFP!
Hmm. Maybe check with your RE. I have heard the heat applied from the heating pad can warm up the ute and get the lining nice and plush. Hopefully what I have heard is true and your RE can give you the go ahead! Either way, fingers crossed for you and your ute...sending lots of triple stripe lining vibes.

I finished my BCP earlier this week and I start stims tomorrow, so Peanut and I are on the same schedule! I do have a little bit of post-BCP AF going on today, but it's that magical kind of AF where there's no cramps and you don't even notice it's happening. I forgot about that part of the pill taking. (You know, from back when I took the pill when I was silly enough to think I needed it!)
Best of luck ladies - it's our month!
No puppies lately. There was a deserted island giveaway most recently. But I saved one for you.

Triggered last night. ER tomorrow at 8:30am. Little nervous now that I'm home. I'm not feeling so bloated or uncomfortable any more. Is that normal? My breasts are another story... They are driving me crazy!
Good luck June Bugs!
Hi June Bugs!
Day 3 of stims and my period is kicking my ass. I wish I could have a glass of wine with my heating pad, but guess I will enjoy some tea instead.
Dx DOR (AMH .49), Stage 3/4 Endo, Septate Uterus

Transferred 2 "perfect" 8-cell embies 6/12. Beta 1 6/25: 472! Beta 2 6/27: 1055!
First u/s shows TRIPLETS! WHAT?!?! Both embies stuck and one split. OMG
