I'm back!! I've been lurking a bit since our BFN, just trying to take a break and center myself again. On paper, our ER is anticipated to be July 12th - the day before our anniversary! I'm starting BCP tonight, hoping that taking it at night will help with the side effects - I was horribly nauseous last time for about 2 weeks. It was a nightmare!
As much as I wish all you ladies weren't still here, it's nice to see some familiar faces.
Re: Just got IVF #2 schedule
Welcome back
Best of luck with your cycle!
Unexplained Infertility
After two Clomid cycles, three injectable IUI cycles, two IVFs, two miscarriages, and one lap surgery, IVF #2 has brought us our little boy!
TTC #2
After months of being postponed or cancelled, FET #1.3 (Natural FET) brought us twin girls!
Welcome back! Glad to hear you have a schedule with IVF #2! Good luck!
We will be close in cycling. If my biopsy goes well next week I hope to start stimming around July 5th.
BTW- I always think of you when I think of St. John and we just recently booked a trip to go at the end of June. I am so excited to go back!
YAY! I start stims July 2nd so we will be really close! I love having a cycle buddy. You have all my T&P that your biopsy goes well.
We are planning on going back to St. John next summer for our 5 year anniversary. Where are you planning on staying? I can't wait to hear all about it. We also cannot wait to go back!

Since we planned it last minute everything was so expensive! So we are staying 5 nights at the Westin in St. John and then we are going to spend 3 nights at the Ritz on St. Thomas. We would love to stay on St. John for all 8 nights, but after the 5th night the room rates went up to $800 a night!! Isn't that crazy! We had looked into renting a house but decided against it. I think if we go back again we will definitely look at renting a house and asking some friends to come with us. We didn't visit St. Thomas last year so this will be new for us. Did you guys visit the island at all? Anything that we must do there?
I really hope our biopsy results come back good because it would be fun to cycle together!

Living After Losing
Friends of ours stayed in a B&B in St. John, (garden by the sea???) so I think we are going to look into staying there if we don't go with a group of friends. We did very little in St. Thomas, nothing that I really remember to tell you to go do or see. I don't remember if we talked about this but have you gone to the BVIs? Jost Van D y k e is our favorite!! We snorkeled the caves in the Indies but didn't make it to the baths - I would like to go there next time.

We definitely want to go to Jost Van *** this time. Last summer we snorkeled the baths at Virgin Gorda and the caves at Norman Island and we loved this trip. I am wondering if we will do the BVI trip when we are on St. Thomas though since I feel like there is less to do there and there are so many beaches we want to visit while on St. John. I am really looking forward to Rhumb Lines!
