Update: Thinking of you, Bella. I have a good feeling about those frosties you have.
We will have our FET on the 11th. I'm hoping out little blast thaws well. If this doesn't work out we'll have the summer off to travel and be back to IVF-ICSI #3 in September. It kind of feels like we're treading water, but I know it's all out of our hands and we've done what we can.
QOTW: This week, I have a bunch a Q's for those who have done FET cycles -
How many frosties did you have? 1
How many did you have thawed? 1
How many survived the thaw? ... hopefully 1
What meds did you take? pills and patches
How many monitoring appts did you have? 2
Best of luck to all!
Update: I did a long update last week. Dh is seeing a new mfi uro and uro wants dh to try clomid to see if it helps his bad SA numbers. We need to give this 3 months to see the results. As a result, we are pushing IVF 5 from July to Sept. I also started taking a bunch of new supps that will hopefully help with quality.
Qotw: we've never had good enough quality embies to meet the freeze criteria, so no advice.
IVF #1 w ICSI in July 2010 = BFN
IVF #2.1 in Oct 2010 converted to IUI = BFN
IVF #2.2 w ICSI in Dec 2010 = BFN
Met with new RE in new city on 1/31/11.

Update: Just went in for a P4 check to see if we need any adjustments. After 8+ months in between transfers, it doesn't feel real at all.
QOTW: This week, I have a bunch a Q's for those who have done FET cycles -
How many frosties did you have? 2
How many did you have thawed? we're thawing 2
How many survived the thaw? hopefully both - one was a 5day and the other a 6 day. RE thinks the 6 day will probably deteriorate during the thaw
What meds did you take? BCP for two cycles, Lupron for 3+ weeks, twice weekly delestrogen injections, daily PIO, doxycycline and Medrol.
How many monitoring appts did you have? It was supposed to be three, but due to thin linings, fluid in the uterus, etc. it ended up being 7 appointments
