So, here's the plan.
1. December: No meds this month and pre-IVF testing including saline hysterosalpingogram (or something like that), mock transfer, and special IVF seman analysis for CJ
2. January (hopefully): Start my next cycle. Go in CD 3 for Day 3 labs including FSH, LH, ect. Start birth control pills.
3. January/February: Stims, Retrieval, Transfer, Baby!!
I'm so excited. I feel like it's a really long road to get there, but I am very confident that this is the best option for us at this point. For those of you who have done IVF, does this timeline sound normal to you? I go in next week to meet with the doctor and come up with a plan, but this is what we talked about briefly at my appointment today. It's funny because I have to put my whole "I want to be pregnant by Christmas thing" on hold while we prepare for IVF, but I feel strangely calm and just excited about it!! I don't know how I'm gonna get through the next month before we get things started, but I can't wait!!
That sounds like a normal timeframe. I remember being disappointed by all the waiting when I decided to do IVF. Sounds like you are making a great decision to move forward with IVF. Feel free to check out my timeframe here: http://compromised-fertility.blogspot.com/p/treatments.html
