    Here! I'm hoping our FET #1 will be in May.

    *I am no longer regularly posting on TB because of the fucked up debacle of Jan 2015 when administrators banned long-term members and mods with no notice and completely dismantled a community full of women who cared about each other.  If you see me posting it's only to give support to a poster who needs it or to post something important enough that I need to say.  I am no longer responding to  anything other than issues that affect people who I care about*
    37 years old, MH is 42
    TTC since 2010; Dx Unexplained Infertility; possible male factor 
    August 2012 through June 2013:  6 IUIs with clomid and trigger shot, all BFNs
    7/2013, Pregnant! Unmedicated--we were on a treatment break
    8/20/13 no heart beat; 8/23/13 d&c
    3/15/14 IVF #1:  Lupron/Follistim/Menopur; ER 3/10 resulting in four transfer grade blastocysts, transferred one pretty blast and froze the remaining three. BFN. 
    Natural FET in May cancelled because the universe hates me my hormones were not cooperating.
    6/24/14 FET #1: transferred two pretty embryos; BFN

    The plan is to re-try IVF #1 in May (got cancelled prior to ER earlier this month) - would be starting stims at the very end of April I think 

    I can't believe I still have so much waiting ahead of me! 
    **warning**
    Me (31), DH (33), one furbaby (7) - unexplained IF 
    hysteroscopy and polypectomy 2/14
    IVF #1 3/2014 - cancelled (early ovulation)
    IVF #1.2  ER 5/16/14: 23R 18F -  freeze all (12) due to concern for late onset OHSS 
    FET #1 in June - delayed due to thin lining, 7/18 SET (7.5 mm lining) resulted in chemical pregnancy
    FET #2 in Sept - 9/4 transferred 2 CCS tested embryos (6.5mm lining)
    9/13 beta #1 - 400, 9/15 beta #2 - 950, U/S 9/22 one gestational/yolk sac - next up 9/29
    3 frozen CCS tested embryos remaining

    I'm doing an FET in May!  We were originally scheduled for April but I canceled it at the last minute as I did not feel emotionally or physically ready after the loss of my boys. Hoping to give lots of support to everyone else cycling in May!

    I like May Blossoms! I love that it represents new life after a long winter :)

    If I remember correctly, it's lilies of the valley that are Mays flower? Lilies in general are perfect though!

    I'm not sure if I will be cycling in May or not, but two thoughts. One, pure white lilies are funeral flowers in some cultures. Two, Lily of the valley is highly toxic, especially to small children (note Breaking Bad episode).

    I learned something new today!

     

    White/Easter Lilies are funeral flowers in some places because they represent new life/resurrection :) I used them in my wedding, and my mom thought I was nuts. I don't really care though. Obviously ;) I like the idea of the violet water lily too though!

    @tptbabe, you are right, lily of the valley is the birth flower for May.

    @Jbasore1123, just to clarify, what type of lily are you referencing? There are tiger lilies, calla lilies, lily of the valley, water lilies.

    Also just a thought: most who will be getting BFPs in May will probably be due in February - the birth flower for February is the violet - but if we wanted to stick with some type of lily for May, we could perhaps have a violet lily to tie the month of our BFP with the EDD?

    I've found a few pretty pics of plain white tiger lilies, white tiger lilies with a little color, or violet water lilies - but I'll wait for feedback before trying any more badges!
    Not everyone cycling in May will have a February due date.  If I ovulate today (which I should based on OPKs), my transfer will be around May 6th which will give me a due date in late January if our transfer is successful.
