Infertility

CD 1 today...baseline for IVF #2 is tomorrow!

I'm feeling a little excited again :), but also pretty nervous. I'm hoping I will be less stressed about the day to day aspects of the cycle since I know more of what to expect, but then I wonder if this cycle will be much harder since I also know first hand what a BFN is like.

If you've done more than one IVF, which one was more difficult for you emotionally or dealing with stress during the cycle?

We are adopting! Currently waiting for our domestic infant adoption match.

  • Yay, Hillaree, I am soo excited for you!!!!!!!

    I think mine was harder emotionally....we lost all our embies with the first, and I was scared that we would wind up in the same boat. I tried to listen to uplifting music on the way to each appt to keep myself hopeful. Plus, I had a great support system with MH and my parents.

  • I am gearing up for IVF #2. I don't think I feel more stress right now, but I would definitely say that I am apprehensive about starting again. I didn't feel that way at all for my first IVF.

    Wishing you the best of luck hon!

    Surprise! Baby #4 is due in March!
  • I'm excited for you too!

  • Good Luck! 

    I would have to say my second was far harder b/c i m/c my first and my FET was BFN.  I went into it feeling defeated.  I took no breaks.  But now that I've been on a break for a  few months, I think my heart is ready for IVF #3.  I hope that this cycle is easy on you mentally, emotionally, and physically.  Wishing you lots and lots of luck!
