So much more pleasant working in the garage than in 90 degree heat and humidity! My last DIY project for a while: a shabby-chic hamper. You can't see it from this pic, but it has wheels- which is the best part! I probably won't be doing very many projects if I get pregnant due to all the harsh chemicals and sawdust, so today is my last 'hurrah.'
Just have to throw some polycrylic on this bad boy and it's done!

Has as anyone ever done a FET with no drugs? it's starting to feel weird that I don't take anything at all. Scan tomorrow and then I get my date for transfer and that's it. Feels strange... My IVF cycle seemed to go fast because there was so many appts and drugs to take and things to keep my mind busy!

@C-k Estrace thickens your lining while keeping your ovaries quiet during an FET cycle. Since you aren't producing follicles, my guess is that way they can do the FET at any time once your lining is optimal since you don't have to worry about your body moving into the luteal phase (but I'm not a doctor). They won't even have you take progesterone? That seems strange. I would LOVE to not be taking meds but I will do whatever I have to do.

I'm kinda hoping these PIO shots decrease my blech-ness. I know they suck when they're administered, but maybe it'll even things out and I'll feel like a real human again. Or maybe it'll turn me even further into a puddle of goo that just wants to lay in bed...

I had my first u/s today. My lining is 9.9 and they moved my transfer date up to 9/13. This might sound a little strange... But I am SO thrilled about the change in date. 8 years ago I had this CRAZY VIVID dream that 9/13 was going to be a super important date in my life. I even wrote the date down on a piece of paper and have always kept it! I start PIO tomorrow- FREAKING OUT!!

I had my lining check today and we are at 9.7! Transfer has been officially scheduled for 9/13. I trigger tonight and start endometrin tomorrow.
@amp_slp We are now transfer buddies, I hope that is a great date for both of us.
@APM_SLP yay for a nice thick lining! That is so cool about 9/13 and it now being your transfer date!
Everyone is trucking along nicely it seems!!
AFM - I'm starting to get nervous about my u/s tomorrow to check my lining. This time last cycle it was just pitiful and I'm worried that even with the change in meds my body still won't be doing what it's supposed to. My RE called today just to confirm transferring just one as she was putting in the paperwork for next week. Even she was basically like, I got my fingers crossed for you that you had a better response! I was waffling between transferring 1-2 but if my lining isn't that optimal, there's no point in wasting two embryos. Any good vibes for thick lining would be greatly appreciated! FX that I'll be starting PIO tomorrow (ugh, is it bad that I'm really hoping to be able to start it as much as it sucks?)
Transfer complete - a beautiful 5 day blast
Also, we bought hubby new shoes for the trip home
eta- feeling very hopeful
@APM_SLP That is amazing about your 9/13 date! Yay!!

@fatpony and @lsatturo126 congrats on your transfers and being PUPO! @fatpony glad to hear that your DH bought new shoes for the way home! What a funny story though!
Thanks all for the good thoughts! I'll update you all bright and early tomorrow with the preliminary results from the u/s - appointment is at 7am
@mtpbadger I feel you, I have my first lining check on Thursday and I'm nervous because I got cancelled last cycle because I never got above 6.5! I'm doing acupuncture this round, with estrogen patches, raspberry leaf tea, pomegranate juice and Vitamin E and B Complex. I found this thread online about this protocol and it worked for a few gals so figured I had nothing to lose! Best of luck to you on your check up tomorrow, keep us posted!
@mjacks16 and @APM_SLP thats awesome news and a nice cushy lining! Hope I'm going to be following in your footsteps!
Keep the good news coming September

Example DH and I are going to the Smoky Mountains in October and I'm toying with the idea of extending the trip by a day but I don't know if we need to save that PTO day for more TTC activities. First world problems I know haha.

@FatPony that must be good luck with your husband right?
Good luck to everyone with lining checks tomorrow! Thinking of you.
IVF: ER 7/16 40 follies, 23 eggs, 19 mature,
12 fert w/icsi, 6 blasts, 3 PGS norm, 1 unknown.
FET: 9/1/16 transferred 1 CP beta 5.9
FET 2: 11/15/16 transferred 1 CP again!
FET 3: TBD
Just got to work after my lining check. It's still being a little stubborn at around a 5 but in looking back at my notes, last cycle at this time it was only a 3.9 so it's better than it has been! I have to wait for my nurse to call but I am going to guess I will continue meds for a bit Longer and my transfer will get pushed back, which I was anticipating so I won't be too upset.
These hormones are getting the best of me! I work with Veterans and one who used to be on my caseload just sent me the nicest thank you letter and I totally just lost it (I mean, I usually would tear up slightly b/c stuff like that is few and far between in my job) but I was practically bawling in my office. Thankfully no one else is here yet!
