We have been trying to get pregnant for 3 years and just completed our first round of IVF. So far, I'm still rocking a BFP! We have our 6 week ultrasound this week. I was really scared about IVF because I hate needles (I've passed out getting my blood drawn before) and I always seem to react badly to hormones like birth control pills. On top of it, I also have lupus which can complicate IVF and pregnancy. We were really lucky to have insurance too. Without it, we could never have afforded it. Regardless of the outcome of this still very early pregnancy, I am so so so glad we got to try IVF!
It feels really overwhelming when your looking at all the medications, and at least two full cycles before you have your little embryo implanted. Plus I had fibroids that delayed us a month and then a cyst that delayed us another month. Take it one day at a time (or one shot at a time). Know that when it's time for whatever the next step is, your nurse will walk you through it. Before you know it, you'll be on your road to Mamaville!
