IVF Week 1 (Take 2)

I was cleared to start my second cycle yesterday and I am so excited. I started my first Lupron injection and will finish my birth control pills on Saturday. My Doctor has cut my meds way down since my estrogen was so high last cycle he doesn't want to risk having another cycle cancelled. I will only be on Lupron and Follistim to start this round and they will increase my meds as needed. So right now if all goes well we are looking at the end of May or the first of June as my retrieval date. I am so ready! Praying that God will give me the strength to get through another cycle. I am beyond ready to start our family and I know in my heart as long as I trust in Him, he will deliver. Thank you God for the faith and strength you have given me through this process.

  3. How are you doing on the Lupron? It made me so tired and gave me headaches. I hope it's treating you ok. I'm glad your doctors were able to adjust your meds. Good luck with everything as you continue your stims and I look forward to hearing about how things go for you!
