Slyder, yes, that's right. We originally thought when we commenced this cycle (and the information we received was incorrect at first - we weren't informed properly by clinic staff) that the cycle would be over and we'd have a result a little while before the wedding, say a week or two. We were very keen to get a cycle in before Christmas in particular, and the fact that it was close to the wedding wasn't a factor in our mind - we just thought of how very lucky we were to be at the right time in my natural cycle to start. It's turned out to be much closer than we obviously originally anticipated! I figure I'll be going through Crinone symptoms in the lead-up to the wedding if everything goes to plan, and probably waiting for the cycle result exactly around the day of the wedding, which is going to be interesting (!) but I'm viewing this as positively as possible - we have such wonderful things happening in our lifes (DF and myself) overall, we're hoping it makes the process of going through the cycle (more) bearable and perhaps (without too much expectation) that we'll have bonus good news in our life around the day of the wedding.
The reason we were so keen to get a cycle in before Christmas to start with is because we have a limited time to try IVF here in Australia before we are moving overseas... DF is a Brit (Aussie resident for about 14 years) and we're due to move back to his home as a new start together next year. This has been planned even before we knew IVF was really a necessity for us, hence the desire to try and get 2 cycles in before we left - one before Christmas, and one afterwards. We feel very lucky to have the opportunity to try this now, given our circumstances, and given it's importance, we will cope with it being around the wedding as best as possible
Eeek! Sorry about the big explanation and rant about it all - I think I've been needing to talk about it as I kind of feel slightly foolish and perhaps judging myself that I've taken on board too much, too much for us both![]()
DW must be wrapped not to have to worry about the pill in the new year for your too. That is really good news to hear. The knowledge that she won't have to go through that particular stress will surely help you both in your next cycle - less stressed/even just slightly more relaxed during the cycle can only be a good thing leading towards getting the right result! I hope soPositive news already for the new year.
