Hi all,
I'm new here, thought I would introduce myself. We've been TTC for 1 year, we've had 2 unsuccessful IUIs and we just finished an IVF cycle in April. Did a fresh transfer then, unfortunately BFN. Now in waiting mode for the side effects of the stim meds to wear off before we can do a FET. Looking forward to chatting with you all!
Re: My Intro - Hi Everyone
TTC for 1.5 yrs
Jan 29, 2018: FET
Feb 8. 2018: BFP!
Mar 6: weak heartbeat.
We just completed our fet last month and I found it much easier than our fresh cycle last October. I think A, it was better because I knew the process and had become more comfortable with my doctors and their staff. B, the med regiment was easier on my body and my stress level. C, I didn't have to feel bloated and bulky from the overflow of eggs. And the most important part, no egg removal. I hated that more than the transfers!
The only thing that's worse this time around for me is that I have to do 2 progesterone shots a day in my back and not just the one.
@ambdtb, frozen and fresh are about a 6 week process before the transfer once your numbers are in range. You still do injections but I only had to do one injection a day as apposed to three a day for a fresh. The extra ones on a fresh cycle are there to help you load up on eggs like a hen.
