Snarky and T-TTC

Frustrated WWYD (Long)

I had my cd 3 appointment today with the RE. So I find out that because my FP was late by almost 2 weeks, that we are a no go for IVF in March. I am so pissed! Every other month my cycle is right on time, like clock work. The time I actually need to start on time, it's nowhere!! Now because of this we are pushed back to April or May

So In April we had a vacation planned to Florida. If we do IVF in April the ER and ET will be that week. We are going with friends and driving and staying for free at their relatives condo. I right now want to say forget the vacation and do the IVF. DH is already off because of break so he won't have to take anytime off for any of it like he would in May. I just feel guilty about canceling on our friends. We did tell them ahead of time that we might not be able to go. Our other option is to say forget April IVF and go on vacation and do IVF in May.  We also have a week in June where we could go somewhere. I really don't think I want to wait an extra month. I know it's up to DH and I and we will come to a decision soon, but if it were you, what would you do? Any opinions would be great. Thanks. I am just really frustrated right now and I am really sick of things not ever working out!

Re: Frustrated WWYD (Long)

  • that sucks that you've lost out on March. For me, I'd probably forego the vacay for now and do something in June. But I'm not hugely in love with Florida- I could take it or leave it. And you did warn your firends ahead of time that you might not be able to do it.

  • Is there anyway you could take a vacation earlier?  Assuming the IVF is a success you could have morning sickness and a general nervousness about traveling in June.  I know I wanted to travel as little as possible when I was pregnant.  It really sucks that your period screwed you over like that!
  • Personally I would skip the vacay in April and do the IVF and then go on vacation in June.

  • I am really sorry that it's not working out for March. It's total crap that our bodies just can't seem to cooperate.

    If it were my friends that live out of state that I only see once or twice a year, I'd probably postpone the IVF (seeing as I know I'd have fun with them and make good memories), but if were local friends that I see all the time I'd postpone with them and do the IVF earlier.

    Good luck!

  • It's so frustrating how with ART you have to be on their schedule to even start. I'm sorry :(

    FWIW, I'd go with IVF in April.

  • I'd do the IVF in April, apologize to the friends, and take a vacay in June.
  • I don't think you should feel guilty for canceling because you did warn them in advance. And that really sucks that they can't do it in March.

  • I don't get why you can't start an IVF cycle right now.   I'd be frustrated too.

    If it were me, I am sure I'd want to cancel the trip in April too.   There will be plenty of time for trips in life.   I'd be anxious to start the IVF at the absolute first opportunity.   However, I don't know - I just know that that would be very very frustrating.

    Can't do this because of teaching. So we are on the school's vacation schedule. 

     

    Thanks ladies for the input.  I am definitely leaning towards IVF in April and DH is on board with that after talking to him. We will talk about it more later tonight but I think it's going to be April.

    Normally this wouldn't be a problem and they looked at how they might be able to get it in. They like at least 2 weeks on BCP and with the ER and ET schedule it didn't leave enough time for Lupron and Stimulation. It was just cutting it too close with the timing with their lab. I could've used another lab but I don't feel comfortable going somwhere else.

  • Another positive of doing it in April is that, as you said, your H will already be on break.?

    I'd do it in April.?

  • Sounds like you've already made the decision with April, and I think it's a good one given the circumstances.  I had to cancel trips, too, for cycles and it sucks.  :-(

    Good luck!
