Cycle Status: IVF round #3 has officially commenced! I had my baseline this morning and it went perfect. Waiting on my E2 results before I administer my first shot of microdose Lupron later today. It's amazing how good at this you get. I remember being a bundle of nerves back in January for round #1, and now I'm so used it to. Fingers crossed I make lots of good, healthy eggs!
Summer Food: I love a classic tomato and cucumber salad in the summer. So fresh and yummy!
I got the call yesterday. I am officially scheduled for my hail mary surgery on June 12th at 11am. Wish me luck!
QOTW: No recipes, we just grill everything!

Diagnosed with Severe Ashermans Hysteroscopy #10 - scar tissue grew back reblocking my right tube #11 or IVF with scarring still inside? 1 lone embryo from September 2016 retreival, dx with Trisomy 16, starting fresh
I have a week and half until my IVF appointment and hopefully will get my plans to cycle this summer. I am getting excited. I have lost 32 lbs since January and am almost down to a healthy BMI and my pre-try weight before all the meds for ttc #1. I have another 10 to go. I think I should be able to lose another 10 by the time I start to cycle.
Status: I had a D&C scheduled for yesterday, but had already passed everything and didn't need it. Besides waiting for my HCG to drop, I'm honestly not sure what my next steps are. I mean, I know long-term, but I don't particularly feel like dealing with insurance again to get started.
QOTW: no particular recipes, but everything is better when you can eat it outside.

DH after discussing the CCS results and FET regroup call with our RE has decided we should start the FET prep with my AF starting next week! That was supposed to be my original FET date but I am very excited and cautious to be back.
I e-mailed my nurse and will need to start BCP with CD 3 and have an HSG but then I am guessing my FET will be late June/early July?
Wishing everyone well!!

@efhoping2010 glad you're back, and that dh came around. Be prepared for your fet protocol to be a tad longer to transfer day. I started my last period april 25, and transfer isn't until June 25. Granted my protocol is a week longer because my dr is out of town...again...but it still was a longer wait than I originally thought it would be.
Glad you're back, and I hope you're not waiting as long as I am!

fuzzbumble thanks!
At my clinic FET is 5-6 weeks from start of AF.
So my BCP is likely shorter, only 2 weeks I think.
My canceled FET was scheduled from April 22 to June 2
Good luck
