But I have to wait for a new cycle to start drugs...
I for some reason was under the assumption that IVF would be a quick fix. Expensive, but quick... Not so much.
We saw Dr. Anderson in Soldotna on May 10th, he seems to know what he's doing-Joy is still double checking everything, which makes me feels well cared for. I'm trying to wait patiently for a new cycle to start. Then ultra sound/blood work and starting birth control-funny, I know. Supposedly it will keep my ovaries from developing follicles. So BCP for 2-3 wks, trying to arrange around everyone's schedules- doc's, my hubby... feeling a little frustrated with this, it's my follicles that are being held back here for their calendar??
Then a med to stop my hormones from contributing, and another shot to stimulate follicle growth (somewhere around 10 days). Then more ultra sounds & blood work, and if all goes well..... they retrieve all the little "follies" I've grown and insert a swimmer into each. Then the waiting game starts... 3-5 days to see if the embies are growing, if so putting some back, then the dreaded 2 week wait. I've already told people I may enlist them to keep me from going crazy. The 2WW has always been a tough spot for me.
