The rollercoaster begins...

8 Replies

We are starting our 5th IVF ICSI cycle now AF has finally decided to show up 4 days late. This will be our 3rd cycle with current clinic. As we have had a few months off since the last treatment they wanted to do a day 2 scan to make sure all is good for starting stims on day 5.

Had my day 2 scan with a nurse this morning and I have 6 follicles, 3 of which are a good size. Got home and just had a call to say the doctor has reveiwed the scan and I am to start stims TONIGHT! Was not expecting this. I am meant to be on a natural modified protocol due to very low AMH but clinic are now saying that because I have double the amount of follicles compared with day 5 of my previous two cycles I will be on a mild IVF protocol instead.

Really hoping this is a positive step. After almost 4 years of TTC and 4 failed IVF cycles surely it's our turn for some good news?! Now just got to get my head around starting injections tonight! The rollercoaster begins....

Hey, I hope everything goes well. Just stay positive throughout the process. Make sure that you are eating healthy and according to the doctor's advice. Drink lots of water as well. Ask your doctor regarding acupuncture. I have heard that it works for a lot of people. Good luck to you. Sending baby dust your way.
