Trying for #2 with FET

[chooky]

Thanks for the advice marcellus. It was supposed to be 12 hours apart, so using a pessary at bedtime would have caused havoc mid morning.

Doesn't seem to matter now though; my husband seems to have changed his mind.

Hi chooky and everyone,
Have come back on (after a long while away) as DH and I are going for #2 with our only frozen blasty...just waiting for AF to start so i can ring WFC to get the whole cycle underway. So desperately wanting for it to work but all the stat's seem to go against us given only the 1 blasty. Our DD is 2 yr 1 month and so ready to be a big sister and the thought that she mightn't ever have that experience is already heartbreaking (and i am trying to be positive!! lol)
I'm interested to hear how it all works, ours is going to be a natural FET cycle, with pessaries but i really have no idea of time frames and things, just want a safe thaw and BFP 2 weeks later...

Kimbe!
Best of luck for you little embryo

Sorry to hear that Chooky. Do you think you might come back to it a bit later on?

[chooky]

Sorry, I should have posted an update earlier. We started the rollercoaster before we even got to the treatment! DH did change his mind temporarily, but we're back on track now. We delayed things by a month, so I'm up to day 4 of meds today.

So massively entirely nervous about everything; if it will work, how i'll deal if it doesn't, how i will deal if it does!

Hope you're doing ok with the meds. Good luck!

Thanks Marcellus.
Chooky, does that mean day 4 of a programmed FET cycle?? Or, are you in the lead up to the thaw and implant?? Either way you must have every emotion going through you right now.
I really feel in the dark about what will happen but hopefully in 2 weeks AF will start and i can hopefully get told a heck of a lot more about what is going to happen day by day in the count down to thaw & implant. A girlfriend said its blood tests daily till ovulation then a short wait with pessaries followed by implant then more pessaries. I wish they would have a simple day to day planner for me! I am such a control freak and just want to know now. Desperately fast forwarding the time. Never thought i'd actually be willing AF to start! lol!

Sorry kimbe, i didn't realise your reply was here (must have missed the email).

I think your treatment depends on your clinic, but roughly speaking, mine was ethinylestrodial starting on the first day of my period, then a blood test to confirm that ovulation had been suppressed ten days later, starting the pessaries twice a day the next day (and continuing the tablets). They did give me a little schedule/planner to follow, tho I kept forgetting to tick off when i'd taken my tablets and confusing myself.

We had our embryo transfer last tuesday; it was a beautiful blast, thawed very well. so i'm firmly in the grips of the tww. ugh. i don't remember it being this painful last time. my blood test is this saturday.

So I'm still on the tablets and pessaries. The pessaries continue for quite a few more weeks if i get a BFP, but I think the tablets can stop (could be wrong tho).

Anyway, goodluck!
