Monday questions

[ilovecandy]

I have been wondering should we just do a monthly thread instead of weekly? Thoughts?

What is everyone up to this week?

I could go either way on the monthly vs weekly.

I'm in the TWW. Heading out of town for the holiday on Wednesday. Looking forward to only one more day of work before I'm off.

I can go either way. Its nice to have a weekly check in since things constantly change in the TTC world.


For me. I started lupron last week and yesterday started spotting so I'm going Friday for baseline monitoring for FET2 (this will be attempt #7 since I've been cancelled 6 times in a row).

I’m
Getting my period. I knew this would happen the first month of lupron. I’m hoping it won’t be too bad. And I’m off work for the rest of the week.

I had a great counseling appointment last week with DH. Our plan over the next two months is to go talk with the egg donation coordinator at our clinic together. And then make a call to an embryo donation clinic/office and get more information from
Them. And then we will decide which direction to go. That direction might also be hysterectomy. Because I can’t be on lupron forever and I can’t have 15 days out of the month in some sort of pain. I’m glad we have a plan. It makes me feel better that we both can work towards something. Whatever that might be!

I learned a lot about the difference between embryo donation and adoption. Embryo Adoption is usually a “pro life” minded organization, might be a Christian org. Which is not the way we lean at all. And donation is more about couples that are more empathetic to those who are in similar situations as they were and they want to share what they no longer need. Super interesting!

It's been a tough week for me. My miscarriage was one year ago this week. And I'm 12 DPO and tests are negative. The RI doctor wants me to have another hysterosonogram to ensure there is no scar tissue from the last d&c as I have had one more d&c since the last hysterosonogram. My husband wants to have his sperm analysis repeated - he's worried that we are putting my body through so much and wants to be sure his sperm isn't an issue. His analysis was normal about 18 months ago. If I got pregnant pretty much anytime the next few cycles, it will be hard for our long planned family trip to Disney World and family in Florida. At this point, even if I got pregnant next cycle, I would be right around when I have had previous losses when we leave for the trip. Any cycles later than that, I'll be feeling crummy in the first trimester. It's all making me pretty sad and cranky.
