Finally

It seems like when you are waiting for the witch to arrive she won't and when you don't she is knocking on your door early. Well, finally today, on CD 36 she came. I will probably start my BCP's tomorrow and Lupron shortly after that. Let's get this show on the road.

Of course I would be late

So I am sitting here waiting, waiting, waiting for my period to start so I can get moving. And of all cycles to be late... I am. I sometimes have longer than usual cycles but not terribly often. I am just ready to get this train rolling and get the IVF over with. I know I make it sound like it is something I am doing casually. Trust me, I am not. I just hate the thought of surgery and bedrest and being away from my girls. I would like to do it, find out if it worked (and I pray it does) and get going already.

Getting close

Looks like CD 1 will be in a week or so. At that point I start the BCP's and get my meds. Shortly after that I will start Lupron. I think the retrieval is something like 6 weeks from the start of BCP's. So we are only 7 weeks or so away and 9 from knowing if we will have another LO (or two) on the way! Getting excited!

Pre-Testing

Today I completed the final portion of my pre-testing for IVF #3. I had bloodwork this morning and went back this evening for a mock transfer, cultures, pap smear and sonohystogram (ouch!). Everything looks good so it looks like I am ready to go.

I will start BCP's with my next period. So it looks like my ER will be about 10 weeks from now. I cannot believe how quickly this is all happening but I am very excited. I am thrilled we will be through Abby's eye surgery when we start the IVF process. That is a huge relief for me!
