Hi all
Esperan - hope your doing well in TWW and not tearing your hair out. Thinking of you
Krikkit, Lilmiss and theresp - hope you are both doing well in TWW also.
Mitf - you must be getting excited. I am but still not sure if we will be able to afford it and if not we will be waiting until Oct
Kay Kay - GL today with your collection. Will be thinking of you.
Taurean78 - Have a fantastic time in NZ - i loved it over there and can't wait to go back one day. GL on the Lucrin etc - we'll be going through a similar cycle - in terms of dates ( that is if we can afford it).
Lovenhope - hi and I really like my FS and nurses so I try to have them all the time. Personal preferance though and Im glad you were able to make a decision - it sounds like a wise one. GL next cycle.
Babytruj - Glad you found a good FS - sounds positive. We were reccommended to go into IVF after 2 IUI's because DH's sperm count/mobility is always so varied. Therefore it is just bout impossible to get the perfect time naturally. So that made sense to me and I was keen to go onto IVF.
Miss K - not sure sorry but I hope its an implantation bleed - could it be from your treatment? GL anyway
Vira - Hi and welcome. Sorry about your MC. GL in your next cycle.
AFM - Im on down reg and have been on the pill. Am about to start Synarel on Friday and have meds appointment next Wed. But we have to make the prepayment by about the 10th-13th of July and at this stage we dont know where we are going to get the money. Im sure we'll scape it up but things are going to be very tight. Otherwise we jhave to wait until Oct and don't really want to wait that long.

Loops, hun, paying in advance can be so stressfull, I robbed Peter to pay Paul with this cycle, so I completly understand the stress of scraping it together, in the good ol' days, you used to complete a cycle then pay - if I had only known that I would of cycled my head off . I hope you manage to get the cash together, and you can get your cycle started. Ps - One cycle, I part paid at the start, then gave em more as the cycle went on. If you ring the clinic accounts, you will find they are quite flexible - hth
Loops - I am getting excited, although a little nervous as well. No one at work knows I am about to embark on IVF. Have you told your work? I am considering telling my direct supervisor so she understands when I need to take days off. I know what you mean about the costs. My clinic takes credit card so I was going to charge a lot of it and will hopefully get my Medicare rebate about the time the bill is due mid August. As wouldloveabubba said, hopefully they might let you pay in 2 or 3 instalments..... GL
AFM - I am doing down reg with out the pill - so If my BT on Friday shows that I have ovulated and have not miraculously got a natural BFP (I wish!)... I will start Synarel that night too.

Hi .. I hope you dont mind me asking. When you had your Lap and Hyst in June, was this through your IVF clinic, and if so, they allowed you to commence an IVF cycle, directly after it, it seems.
I am considering a LAP and Hyst, that is the reason for my querie ..
I am new to IVF and very excited to be starting. I had my lap on 17 June and was given the all clear to start IVF on my next cycle. So I'm just waiting for CD1 then I start pill popping. My FS didn't see any reason to wait, so it seems you can go right ahead. I'm glad I had the lap because they found "substantial endo" and I had no symptoms at all. Freaky. I hope it was worth it and we get a good result
MITF, I havn't told my work either, it makes it difficult doesn't it? I"m not sure how to handle that.
Wouldluvabubba - no I don't mind you asking at all. My FS works at the clinic but also has her own rooms - they work very closely together.
After my second IUI BFN we decided we would like move ahead with IVF but my clinic advised my FS would probably want to drain a cyst I had on my right ovary prior to IVF. The clinic liaised with my FS to schedule the Lap/hyst. We didn't actually meet with the FS as it was an option we had discussed previously.
I recovered quickly from the Lap/hyst and my FS was happy for me to move straight in to IVF. My lap involved my FS having a look around, draining a chocolate cyst (endometriosis of the ovary), and dye studies. If they had discovered other problems that required more intensive work - I imagine the healing time could be longer, although the human body has a remarkable way of bouncing back - particularly if you are reasonably fit and healthy.
Below is a bit of a timeline of how things went. I guess I am lucky that my FS and the clinic work very closely together, plus I was very proactive in booking things in advance to make sure we could progress without lengthy delays waiting to see the FS etc. I feel like we had been on this journey for a while and not getting anywhere. It certainly feels good to be moving ahead with that next goal post just ahead.
Time line
14 May - IUI #2 BFN
20 May Lap booked for 5 June
5 June - Lap/hyst
12 June - AF
17 June - FS appointment, discussed IVF
3 July - BT & should start syranel
10 July - AF due
Approx 29-31 July - EPU
Daisie - Hi and to BB hon. Do you know what your plans / dates are for your IVF schedule? I am doing down regulation without the pill. I have a BT tomorrow morning so all going to plan I will start Synarel tomorrow night. I think I will tell my supervisor.. I told her about my Lap and I trust her to keep it to herself. As for everyone else ? it is none of there business!.... Although I am pretty sure some of them are dying to ask what's going on.
Vira - Hi and to BB also. Sorry to hear about your MC it must be heartbreaking to receive a BFP and then experience such loss. Do you know what your plans / dates are for your IVF schedule?
