I didn’t see a discussion for this yet. Anyone else out there doing a transfer in February? I just got the call today that we have one PGS tested “normal” embryo so we will be moving forward with our transfer in February.
Re: Feb 2019 FET
AFM, I had my biopsy this morning. Now I just have to wait until CD 1 to schedule my baseline.
My meds arrived today and it is so weird not having to refrigerate anything. The PIO already has me freaking out but I will do anything to ensure success. Last BC pill tomorrow and then 5 days till BL/US and hopefully the green light to start.
I decided this morning that we’re going to go ahead with a February FET. We’re doing an endometrial scratch this month in preparation. I’ve never had a scratch before, and tips on what to expect?
We’re also going PIO for the first time this time around. It’ll be my 4th transfer but we’ve done suppositories previously.
Good luck to all of us!!
@ekb2016 based on all the different ladies experiences on here that I’ve read that seems pretty common to me. The way I look at it is it only takes one and the best are the ones that were able to freeze. I keep telling myself that because we only have one!
@nattiemom2be hopefully the increase will get that lining to a 9. My doc said she wants to see over 8. I think the average is between 5-6 at this point.
@cimica how did your procedure go?
@char245 have you had a recheck ultrasound yet?
Hey everyone! I am new to this site and this is my first online post...ever. My tentative transfer day is February 19th. I am very excited but also guarded. My husband and I, both 29, started IVF in October due to male factor infertility. We retrieved 27 eggs and had 17 embryos survive past the 5 day growth with ICSI. After PGS testing, we have 11 frozen embryos. Our first FET was scheduled for November, but it got cancelled at the last minute. Apparently, my lining could have been thicker, and I had an excess amount of fluid in my uterus that was preventing a successful transfer. Has anyone else experienced, or heard about, having too much fluid that prevented transfers? My doctor said it was a side effect from the estrogen, so we are trying a new, more gradual estrace schedule. So hopefully that works. We plan to only transfer one embryo, and I am very excited, but I'm also nervous that it will be cancelled again due to the same issues.
@ceriley1welcome! That’s awesome that you have so many frozen!! I don’t have any experience with the excess fluid but wish you lots of luck on this cycle!
@ceriley1 welcome. I am sorry about your canceled FET. I am new to the IVF world and never heard of fluid, just lining not thickening. My husband and I (both 30) are doing IVF because I have bad eggs and we have had multiple losses. I am also very guarded, while my husband is ever the optimist lol. Fingers crossed this time everything works out perfectly.
Baby dust and best of luck to all of you, excited to be on this journey together February FET ladies!

@faithhopelove01 welcome! A few of us only have one frozen, but it definitely only takes one! 😊
Anyone taking any vitamin supplements?
@vetgirl2011 Thats so reassuring, thank you for letting me know!
@Kriztyn I am doing coenzyme Q10, Vitamin D, baby aspirin, prenatals with 200mg DHA
@Kriztyn good luck on your baseline. I'm taking prenatals, 81mg aspirin, and a vitamin for MTHFR.
@nattiemom2be I had a US on CD1, CD10. I'm due for another on CD 17 with transfer on CD23. With so many different protocols I've read and seen, I always feel so confused. My doc is sono happy, I had 6 for my ER alone.
@ceriley1 my AF never showed up. Doc said it was fine. My lining has moved along perfectly so I guess she was right. Totally get the worry. I always have the worst anxiety right before my appointments thinking something bad is going to happen.
