I've already created a spreadsheet. I'll hold down the fort for a bit until we get more March FETers. : )

I just checked my insurance account online, and saw that they've approved prior authorization for this ivf cycle! So I'm hoping that my nurse at my RE's office will be able to get to work tomorrow (yay for blizzard #2? lol...) and we can order the meds and tell me when to take my last BCP. Hopefully by the end of the week I'll be able to start stims! That would put me at a very late Feb/very early March ER, and hopefully a late March FET...but probably an early April FET at this point...
I am beyond terrified about the FET because this will probably be it for me, no more tries. I really wanted 2-3 babies but now it looks like I'm almost at the end of the road and no babies.
@daniella144 My heart goes out to you, it's so heartbreaking to have PGS tested embryos and still get CPs. What did your RE offer as explanation, odds and recommendations for the next FET?
When you find out your FET dates let me know and I'll add it to the spreadsheet.

BFNs for both.
So, my advice is to do whatever it is that makes you feel better about your chances. The relaxing thing (though I know it seems impossible) is pretty important. I'm thinking about getting some massages this go-round leading up to my FET.

AFM, my doctor sent the medication order monday morning. my insurance used CVS Caremark (from what i've heard...BLAH!) I called on tuesday to make sure they received the order, and yesterday where they said they were still verifying with insurance, and the lady said she put a rush on it. If i don't hear by lunchtime/noon, I'll be calling again. I want these darn meds so I can call my RE and be told to stop taking these BCPS!
Thinking about not taking the day off this time so that I'm not tempted to netflix and chill on the couch...

@LeFemmeViolette Interesting. I haven't asked about this yet. But it's mind boggling how every RE is different in so many ways and opinions on almost every aspect during this IVF process are so mixed and different. It just goes to show that IVF is a trial and error process at this point, with very few definitive knowns.
@caseyw8784 I saw your jury duty stress on the other board. I'm a total true crime junkie so I would be sooo excited to be on that jury haha. But hubby can tell them that you guys are doing fertility treatments and they'll put him on duty another week. I had to do this for one of my IUI cycles. You get a gold star for patience though...geez! Glad things are all finally starting to fall into place for you!!
TTC #1 off and on since 2010
11/15 - Clomid + TI = BFN
12/15 - Clomid + TI = BFN
1/16 - Clomid + IUI = BFN
2/16 - Clomid + IUI = BFN
4/16 - Follistim + IUI = BFN
5/16 - 11/16 - Life / WTFing / Pity Party / Saving $
1/17 - IVF #1 (Fresh Transfer / 6 frosties) = BFN
3/17 - FET.... BFP! EDD 11/29
For example, with DH and I, neither of us have any of the "classic" infertility problems - we are doing ivf to avoid passing on a single gene disorder that otherwise would have a 50% chance that a child of ours would be affected. My RE had said once that if we put back 2 good quality normal PGD/PGS embryos, the chances of twins is like, 65% - 75%. that kind of scared me! I don't know if it's really that high of a chance, it seems almost too high?
Hopefully your RE can clarify for you!
Are you all doing a natural FET or medicated? What is the protocol like? I want to do a completely natural one, but the doc recommended letrozole and hcg. I'm still trying to decide what to do, take my chances and go natural or not.

I am starting baby aspirin and estrogen (pill and patch) on CD1 (which I am waiting impatiently for). Then I will do the progesterone IM injections.. has anyone done those yet?? I am super nervous - but I just did not want to do the suppositories twice a day. I am thinking the transfer will happen sometime mid-march. My fresh transfer did not result in pregnancy in January, so fingers crossed for the frozen!
