Jo, hi and welcome! If/when you want to be added to The List, just let me know where you are in your cycle. GL with the puregon!!

faye, my advice is to break the cycle down into steps and just take it on one step at a time. Don't start your synarel worrying about the beta, just worry about taking your meds on time. Don't worry about how many embryos you'll get while you're doing your stims - just worry about taking your meds on time. Don't worry about EPU - honestly, that scared me the most for our first cycle, but it is actually the easiest part! Just take on each stage as it happens rather than worrying about the one you're on and the next 3... And ask us as many questions as you like.

MC, FX you are surprised by your FET outcomes. My FS says you have a good chance with FETs if the embies come from a pregnancy IVF. Lol, then I had to point out ours came from a BFN IVF... Oh well...

myturn, yay for an earlier appt! I keep having those "we should a newborn" thoughts (especially since DD started saying "baby" this week, out of the blue - breaks my heart every time , but I have to remind myself that "should" is the wrong word. She was never meant to come home with us. I have to make sure I change it to "would have if things had been different" and then remind myself that they weren't different. I do find I think those "should" thoughts less often now that the due date has passed, but I still think them...

Afm, pretty sure I'll be back here in the next few days... Someone else will have to get our first BFP for the month!
