Our Hands Are Full With Hearts To Match

The Fast Track...

We went in for my sonohystogram yesterday and received our calendar for this cycle this morning...there were some questions the nurse wanted to clarify with Dr H once I told her I didn't need to take the Lupron. One thing can be said for POF/POI, it doesn't slow you down when it comes to frozen cycles.  I had been expecting the typical calendar of approximately a month before transfer.  We had said we'd like to just move forward as soon as possible and the nurse originally gave us a tentative time frame of the week of November 4th transfer.  This was fine by me.  Time to get ready.  Time to comprehend and let it all really settle into my brain.  But low and behold Dr H told our nurse that due to my ovaries sitting on the sidelines already for this game that I didn't need to do Lupron (knew that) and also didn't need to manipulate my cycle with birth control (good job ovaries).

We were given the option to start Estrace and a cycle immediately or postpone a little if we had our hearts set on Dr H doing the transfer.  I was pretty tempted to postpone out until November 4th but after checking my calendar realized that I have a boutique show scheduled that week with a friend.  So since there is no harm, no foul in having another doctor do the transfer we are going ahead with the earlier transfer the week of October 14th.  Barely two weeks away.  The nerves are starting to kick in.  Ready or not the clock is ticking.

TWO WEEKS!!!! WHAAAA!
That's great. I must say, my nerves would also be jumpy . But two weeks is enough time to calm them down.
Awesome that you don't have to take lupron or bcps.
YEAH! Let this cycle begin!

OMG, I've been so MIA! How exciting! And how ironic--husband and I just talked yesterday about possibly doing another cycle with our frozen embryos! Wishing you the best on your cycle! Praying for another success!

Thanks Augusta and Hope for the well wishes. Nerves are in check for now but I'm sure that will be day to day. I didn't see a second shot coming when we took our girls home nearly three years ago but here we are. Thanks again.
