Anyone starting IVF in June or July?
Let's come together and support one another thru this difficult journey!
Together we can make things a little better!!

I'm 37, got a BFP May 9th that is being taken away from us. DH and I are devistated being is this was our first success after 10yrs ttc. We will start IVF #3 hopefully the middle of June if my cycle is regular. Looking for some cycle buddies to help one another get thru these hard times.
Good luck to everyone!!

I finally posted a journal on our next ivf plans

I hope I will be able to join in here, I have my post IVF consult on Friday.  I just had a failed IVF cycle, it was my 1st one.  Last year I had about 8 IUI cycles,changed insurance to try IVF.  I am 38 so time is ticking for me.  I hope to find out  what my doctor wants to do next.  I thought it was a great cycle, 13, only 7 retrieved though but 3 fertilized and 4 were ICSI.  So we did use all 3 but none of them stuck around.

Sorry none of them stuck around. How did your post ivf consult go?

Gosh that really *****! I had three transferred and for me the fear of what if the three stooges all made it and I am only 5'0 tall and was told I didn't have hardly enough room for twins.. I was sweating bullets! But none of them took either and then it made it super hard to deal with... On my birthday I got the bfn. For some reason idk if it's the more time invested or the failure of ivf hurting worse than BFN's before. I can relate to how you feel and I know you will pick yourself up and give it all you got round two!! Any suggestions from your doctor on what happened? If you read my journal on our crazy plan for next round you will see my RE's reasoning on what could of happened to our embryos in case it sparks a question or two for you in your situation. I'm all about sharing my experiences in hopes of someone else getting to a BFP faster than it's taken us!

I talked to my Dr. today, she is not sure why it didn't take.  So we are skipping this month as I am on cycle day 3 (I think) today.  So looks like I will be a June/July cycle.  She is changing my dosing on the Follistim, from 300 to 375 in hopes of getting the follicals from the right side.  I have some endo going on but she doesn't think it's an issue.  She is also hoping that I can be 5 day instead of 3 this time.  I hope to get into more detail once the cycle starts....
