FET cycle ...it's go go go!

So, it's my CD 1 today, I called the hospital and we're booked in for a scan to check my lining and the dominant follicle on 8th Feb. On the back of that I feel excited and ready for this, it's strange but it feels a bit like there's some comfort in having gone through the first IVF cycle as if we're half prepared for what's in store now. It's a learning curve when you first do it, I'm not a seasoned pro or anything but I remember it just feeling like a bit of a runaway train last time. We went from trying for a while, having some tests then hearing the words 'undiagnosed' and suddenly we were getting booked in for IVF and wondering how we'd got there. Feels like we're a little more conscious of making decisions this time as we've waited and chosen to do it now, having some on ice has helped to reduce some (not all!) of my anxiety about ageing eggs! I have all my fingers and toes crossed and am just so full of hope! I (and we) want this so much and have been waiting for so long. Please, please, please, please let this be it for us!

Wherever you are on your journey, sending best wishes and lots of luck to all :-)

thanks very much, i saw from another post that you've had a challenging journey. I really hope it works out for you. Best of luck xx

Best of luck! We were in a very similar scenario to you. Bit of a shock to system when I heard the ivf words.

Due to start FET next week! Good luck! Hope this one sticks x

aww thank you. Yeah we're lucky in a way that we got funding etc and no waiting list to speak of but we've struggled to get our heads round the fact that we need it and we can't just get pregnant naturally. Still, i guess the end result is the most important thing, not how you get there. Fingers crossed and best of luck to you too! xx

I completely understand. I got pregnant naturally as soon as we started trying unfortunately that ended in preterm little and our baby didn’t make it.

We just assumed getting pregnant again would be as easy again. Nearly 3 years later and nothing... staying positive though. Our time will come 🙏🏼
