Lets try with the frosties

So at last after only a week delay we can get started with the 2nd Attempt.
I've missed a couple of calls from the pharmacy who has the order for my drugs, i need to make contact tomorrow so i can get the first drug ready for next week. As we are doing a frozen cycle this time its mean't to be much easier on my body which is sounding really great right now. In the last 4 days i've become to feel normal (loose use of such a term) once again. I need to work hard at eating well and exercising lightly so i don't feel like Shamu once more.

The plan is for me to take birth control from Friday and then add in the drug Lupron again at the end of next week. This drug suppresses my own system. I'll have to take hormones to make the frosties home all cosy and ready to receive again. If all goes to plan the transfer should be 27th August.

Richards roll this time - Moral support!! nothing needed in the medical dept (lucky bugger)
I'm looking forward to getting into this again and weirdly back to the multiple ultrasounds and blood tests.

Still waiting........

.......... on everything at the moment it seems!
My new cycle was due to begin yesterday but i think after all the hormones my body is now confused (sigh) I have no idea when the witch will finally make her presence known and we can get on with this and i can start to feel somewhat ''normal'' again!
The clinic sent through an updated protocol for the frozen cycle with an estimate of transfer being the 27th August. We are really hoping things come together in the next few days or that will be pushed back again.

As for the house, another step closer but still waiting on our bank. we have been told to expect to close next week but they keep saying that!!!

Paitence is a virtue i am told - more like a pain in the bum :-)

Frozen cycle info arrives

Woo hoo - all of a sudden i feel weirdly excited to have recieved the info for the next part of our journey :)

Everything depends on my body behaving and me starting a new cycle when i should but it looks like we will be back on the horse in 2 weeks!
We have two frosties in the freezer and all being well they are prediciting putting them back in around the 12th August!
I have a series of suppression drugs to take again including the birth control pill. Rich will be so pleased as this one makes me a moody cow apparently (ooh the charm)
So more ultrasounds and blood tests coming up and the thought of another 3 days in bed - hopefully in our new house.

I'll be back with further updates when i have firm dates

Now i really must be good on the exercise front !!!!!!
