FET #2 Update
I woke up this morning nervous for my ultrasound. The results…..not good. My follicle did not increase in size and my lining actually went down. Why? Because someone wants to see how far they can push me before I have a meltdown! Actually, I have no clue what is going on or what will happen from here. I am assuming my body is still off because of the failed IVF. I have always had normal cycles. I would ovulate late but always get my period every 32ish days. I think this could go three ways 1) They will tell me to come back in three days and see if there is any improvement 2) They will cancel the cycle and I will do a medicated cycle in December or 3) they will switch me to a medicated cycle. I chose not to do medicated because last time the estrogen did a number on me.
I became severely depressed, distressed and ended up putting on 8lbs that cycle from these insane cravings. I wanted to go natural this time but more than anything I want a baby so I will suck it up if I have to. It’s appointments like these that are the hardest. I want to cry. I want to give up. I want my life back. But……I won’t give up yet. Now I wait for the call….

Hey I nominated you for a liebster award…check out my blog…
Oh man…I hate the ups & downs…they just suck the life out of you…I know when my lining wasnt thickening on meds it was super frustrating…hang in there!!!
It’s so frustrating!
I’m so sorry Kim. When will you know which of the 3 options is go? X
They should call this afternoon!
Well I’m crossing my fingers for you x
What day are you on? I had my first ultrasound check yesterday and I’ve gotta go back in 3 days also. This is my first FET, so I don’t know exactly what to expect.
I am CD11 but had my first u/s on CD 8.
Oh, Kim, I’m sorry to hear this. I have always wished I could do natural FET cycles, but have been reading stories lately like this where the gal’s body just does not cooperate. I never had an issue with estrogen, but did with lup.ron. I think it’s so interesting how some hormones affect some women and not others.
I hope you get good news, but if you don’t, we’ll all focus on the next cycle for you!
Thanks! I am hoping they can just switch me over to a medicated cycle and I won’t lose a whole lot of time.
That would be awesome if they do!
Well crapola!
Hope you get to switch to that medicated cycle like you want. It sucks how this process is such a “hurry up and wait” game.
So sick of the roller coaster ride! Will it ever be easy?
Ugh, I’m so sorry this has been so hard – you’d think with everything at least this one part could go smoothly….
Haha! I know. It’s like someone just wants to see how much we can take before snapping! It will all work out though.
it will, but it doesn’t make the ride any easier
Ugh, that sucks! I’m still staying positive for you and hoping for a good outcome at your next appointment. Hang in there!
Thanks!
