the new plan

in TTC after 35

My WTF appointment isn't until the 26th (RE is out of town this week, DH is out of town next week, and I really would like both of them to be there) but I did talk to my nurse today. I love her. We decided I should do a FET right away, if my RE agrees, but I will most likely get my period before our WTF appointment. So she emailed my RE, who is off at a conference somewhere, who responded that that sounded like a good plan. Thus, as soon as my period starts, I go back on the pill.

We will get more details on the timing, etc. on the 26th.  I think moving on full speed ahead is what I need to do right now. This will be our last shot for awhile. Money is running out, I'll be out of a job in July, and more than anything, I'm just tired. I feel very very lucky to have my 5 embies on ice, so we can work with my 35 year old eggs for awhile.

Thank you all for your kind words through all this. I know I'm lucky to have had a successful IVF cycle with some beautiful embies; it just is so hard to get so close, and still not get that sticky BFP.

    This process is exhausting. I slept for 2 hours after my IUI on Saturday just because all of the running around finally hit me like a ton of bricks. 

    Your plan seems good and it is great that you are moving into FET right away. I have high hopes that this next one will be it for you. You were sooooo close this time.

    You have such a good attitude. I think I need to drink some of whatever you are having.

    I'm sorry that things didn't work out the first time.  Good for you for jumping right back into things with a FET.  I think you have pretty good odds with those 5 that made it to freeze.  If I remember correctly they graded out pretty well too.  Good Luck to you and take care!
