Ugh frustrating!!! ::UPDATE::

So I called my REs office and asked for him to call me to discuss the results of my MRI... Because of it clear i need to start my FET protocol and guess what??? My RE is on vacation until FRIDAY!! How am I supposed to start my protocol if he isn't even here? Soooooo frustrating......

ETA: now I'm just mad. The nurse just called and tol me that the lab closes for three weeks in December so they can't do any transfers after December 20th! Then the soonest they can do a transfer for me is on January 7th....!!!! WTH? And there is nothing I can do about it since the doc is out of town and they won't let me start the estrace without my baseline scan and blood work. Ugh!!! I just wanna throw something! His "oh this will only set you back a week" turned into an additional 3 weeks! So mad and sad

  • I'm waiting to hear back from the nurse. I don't see a problem with starting on the estrace again before we have an answer about the MRI... It only costs me $2 per bottle..... Then if my MRI is positive ill just go off it and start lupron.... But if it is neg then I'll already be priming for FET.... Waiting for phone calls is the worst :(

    :) you're a good buddy to have

    I just wish my RE would have said something... I don't know last week about this... I could have started my estrace and stuff while I waited on the MRI results... He knew he was going to be on vacation.... The nurse even remembered that I was going to be on vacation in December... How did they not think to mention this? ::banging head against wall:: communication would have put my heart at ease.... Guess I just have to get over it...

  • Sorry to hear that.  I hope the holidays keep you busy enough so the time flies by.  Also, I really felt it was best to stop trying to plan things.  I mean, if my plans worked, I'd have 20 month old, conceived naturally twins running around my empty house right now.  I've learned the hard way to not get caught up on dates or planning.  Things will happen on their own time.  Once I learned to let go of the control just a little bit, my heart was at peace more.  Honestly, there is ALWAYS going to be waiting during and after IF.  After your transfer you will wait for beta 1, hopefully beta 2, first u/s, heartbeat u/s, NT scan, anatomy scan.... I think us IF girls never get to just chill!


    I'm slowly learning that I just need to relinquish control.. Maybe this is a lesson in patience for me... And I needed to be reminded that I can't have everything I want my way all the time... Maybe this will make me appreciate my potential children even more.... I guess I need to look at the big picture and stop worrying about every set back...

  • Ohmygoodness! How stressful and irritating! I would've totally busted out crying and threw something! I've gotten really good at throwing things this cycle! First, I chucked a tervis cup across the kitchen and shattered it! Who knew you could even break a tervis cup!? Last week I threw one of my Brighton bracelets across my room and broke it in half! I'm going to have all sorts of other issues by the time I'm done with IVF...like anger management hahaha jk! :D I won't even tell you what pissed me off to throw the bracelet....smh :))

    Hahahaha my DH has become very good at picking up after my throwing something. I even went in my backyard and shot wine bottles with my crossbow.... Just to break things.... Then sadly I tripped on my step to my garage to put the crossbow away and broke my crossbow..... **sigh**.
    But I did just purchase passes to go skeet shooting so I'm going to go break more STUFF!!

  • I'm sorry.

    ************** Siggy Warning************


    Married August 2012 -- Me (40 yrs old) My husband (45 yrs. old) 

    RE referral from ObGYN in late Jan. 2013 -- Testing Confirms Unexplained IF 

    IUI #"s1 - 3 (Femara + IUI) April - June 2013 - all BFN

      Decided to do IVF... Began stimming on September 10th!  Egg Retrieval 9/20/13.  19 eggs: 6 to mature to freeze after 6 fertilized with ICSI

     3 morula stage embryos transferred on 9/25/13.....Beta #1 on 10/4/13/ = 7.5  Beta #2 on 10/6/13 =  negative

      IVF#2 - Lupron plan  (set to begin on 10/28/13)  (Planning on thawing and fertilizing our 6 eggs with ICSI as well as all of the mature eggs they retrieve with this fresh cycle.)

     Late October 2013 - ectopic pregnancy - methotrexate injection....benched 3 months

    CD1 - 12/5/13...Lupron set to start on 12/26/13; CD1 - 1/2/14....Baseline 1/3/14....begin follistim tonight and continue with lupron.  (Got my calendar today!  IVF#2 is a go!)

    ER = 1/14/14  (11 eggs....9 were mature. 9 fertilized.  Of the 6 mature eggs we thawed, only 4 fertilized.  At this time, we have 13 eggs fertilized and growing.  Waiting for news about a 3-day or 5-day transfer.)

    ET = 1/19/14  (5dt).....3 blastocysts transferred!   (All nine embryos didn't make it to freeze.  =(  )

    Beta #1 = 1/28/14   (2 weeks after ER)  BFP! 209 (9dp5dt)   EDD 10/7/14

    Beta #2 - 1/30/14  (11 dp5dt) 302

    Beta #3 - 2/3/14  (15 dp5dt)  1222 

    Ultrasound set for 2/17/14......TWINS!        Twin A - HR 124 bpm; Twin B - HR 126 bpm

    Final Ultrasound with RE 3/10/14 - Twin A - HR 176 bpm; Twin B - HR 177 bpm.

     PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
