This is a place for those of us who have already started TTC, but
have started infertility testing and/or treatments. You can express your
thoughts, feelings, and frustrations on infertility. TTC can be a long
journey naturally, then add in the difficulties associated with
infertility, and it becomes a whole new ballgame. The road to
infertility can be lonely, frustrating, and complicated, so let's make
this a place where we can vent, ask questions, and support one another.
Feel free to resurrect this thread at any point in the week if you have
something to say. Treat this as an ongoing conversation.
Diagnosis (if you've been):
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched):
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?):
How are things going?:
Any questions?:
GTKY: If you had zero obligations how would you spend this coming weekend?
Re: IF Testing & Treatment w/o May 1
Diagnosis (if you've been): Unexplained
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): Trying naturally this cycle
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): Researching and figuring out insurance
How are things going?: I found out our insurance covers acupuncture, but I’m not sure of the specifics. I had to send a message to ask, so waiting to hear back.
Any questions?: None right now
GTKY: If you had zero obligations how would you spend this coming weekend? I’d probably go to a show or a museum or something@britters314 That’s great you have coverage for acupuncture! Mine covers it but not for fertility 😡
Diagnosis (if you've been): RPL
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): On the bench
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): Waiting for my new cycle so I can start BC ahead of my little surgery to remove RPOC. Should only be a few more days.
How are things going?: Had some good conversations with my husband last week about what we want to do re: treatment. No big decisions but we have another appointment with the RE next week to discuss a treatment plan and will come prepared with questions. I am dreading being on BC. Hormonal BC and I do not get along. The last time I tried it was years and years ago and it was a shit show.
Any questions?: NATM.
GTKY: If you had zero obligations how would you spend this coming weekend? Romantic overnight away in a cute small city on the ocean, complete with hotel room and brunch the next morning.Diagnosis (if you've been): AMA, RPL, lupus anticoagulant antibodies, and left tube occluded
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): medicated cycle! 🙌🤞
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): medicated cycle - SHOULD o sometime between Friday and Monday which is perfect timing with my husband being away for work. 🤞🤞🤞
How are things going?: hopeful. I’m really hoping this cycle works. If it doesn’t we are going to have some serious talks about moving forward with IVF and preimplantation genetic testing.
Any questions?:
GTKY: If you had zero obligations how would you spend this coming weekend- hopefully making a baby!!!! Honestly though if it was zero zero like even the “obligation” of my fertile window was gone… sleep. The whole 48 hoursDiagnosis (if you've been): unexplained
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): FET
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): should be starting FET cycle - had the suppression check US this morning and got the unofficial okay. Should get the official one this afternoon!
How are things going?: meh. This is our last chance without big decisions about further treatment options. Trying not to let that pressure get to me. Also DH has a man cold. I shouldn’t laugh, but it’s hard not to….
Any questions?: nope
GTKY: If you had zero obligations how would you spend this coming weekend? Baking, knitting, house projects and working out. Unless there was a last minute trip pre-planned for me. Then I’d do that option
