We’ve decided on IVF.
It really wasn’t a hard decision. J’s 4th SA results came back with no new issues preventing us from doing IUI (good count & motility, morph at 8.5 but at a less strict lab, good survival and motility after 24 hr incubation). But after considering all the factors, IVF felt like the right choice.
It’s been a bit of a whirlwind ever since I told the nurse our decision. I went in today for more blood work and a mock transfer, which really wasn’t bad at all. I have a tentative schedule for the beginning of the cycle:
Nov. 4 – Class for J and me – drug injections, etc, more b/w for J
Nov. 8 – last BCP
Nov. 12 – baseline u/s
Nov. 13 – Start FSH
From what I can tell we’re doing an antagonist protocol. I am set up with the pharmacy – they called and read off the list of medications. Wow. Just wow. I knew it would be a lot but I really didn’t expect such a long list. As soon as we are ready to start meds I will call and they will ship them overnight. I should be getting a more formal calendar from the nurse later this week. And kicking it all off is our trip to CT & NYC – J is already in CT, and I fly out on a red-eye on Wednesday night. Yippee!
