I talked to a nurse at the IVF clinic today, and here's our tentative plan:
- Get preliminary ultrasound on 4/1 to check condition of uterus.
- When period arrives in mid-April, start Es.trace 2x/day.
- 4-5 days after period, get laminaria placed, left in place for four hours, then removed, leaving a much more agreeable cervix to work with.
- 2-3 weeks into the Es.trace-taking, get an ultrasound to check lining.
- Up the Es.trace to 3x/day, add PIO or suppositories, which they say have now been proven to be as effective or nearly as effective as the shots.
- Tentative FET date: 5/9 (a Friday, so my husband could potentially be there).
- Four hours before FET, gobble ibuprofen; one hour before FET, take Bus.par and Dem.erol; feel happy.
- Dive back into the 2ww!
Mmmmmm.....I can just taste the hope and despair already!

Good luck. After changing my mind about wanting another, I'm working on the hubs (who hasn't changed his mind) on having another. It's kind of like a kid asking if we can get a puppy around these parts.
GOOD LUCK ON THE FET! I look at Soren as inspiration that a FET works! I have my first FET in 2 weeks.. YIKES!
Good luck!! Hope, hope, hope!
Oooohhhh...
Good luck. So excited you are doing this again!!! You are one brave lady!
Wow, good luck!
Good luck, and good wishes. Soren is such a cutie, and such an inspiration.
Good luck! Crossing my fingers for you.
