Funny, I looked back at my posts, and my first post on this board was almost exactly a year ago when intro'ed saying we were doing IVF w/ICSI. Here we are a year later, finally moving on.
My clinic makes you attend an IVF "general meeting," so I'm starting with that on Thursday. Here we go....

Re: We're finally IVFers
Well an unfortunate welcome to the club. It's certainly bittersweet to be at the end of the road, but hopefully it maximizes your chances and you're a "one and done".
How soon are you guessing it will be until your first cycle?
Best of luck.
Well the earliest my RE estimates my ER to be is beginning of December. We are still slightly considering waiting until the beginning of January. I think we'll end up going with ASAP though.

I have no idea! lol Honestly, I feel like hell- don't get me wrong, I am so grateful to be pregnant, but I've never felt so awful for such a long period of time. I've had all day "morning" sickness this entire time and it hasn't stopped yet. I'm pretty much a hot mess! hahaha See, we can have a pity party for 2!
