FET Process

So next steps are a little vague at this point but after going through such a process as IVF, I get the routine.

1. Start birth control again to shut down my system and bring all of my numbers back to 0.
2. Scan/Calendar visit with doctor in about three weeks.
3. Lupron injections for two weeks to suppress the pituitary gland, increase uterine lining and prevent premature ovulation.
4. Vivelle patches again to raise estrogen levels.
5. After Lupron then Progesterone supplements
6. Antibiotics to make sure there is no infection that would prevent implantation

Thankfully our excellent quality frosties save my body from the first half of IVF where my ovaries are ridiculously full and uncomfortable.  We even have one frosty that is graded AA, the best grade you can get!  We also have one that is AB running a close second!

Last will be the FET (Frozen Embryo Transfer), sometime the beginning of December so Kyle and I have to decide how many embabies to put back in this time.  We talked about it last night and he said, "put them all in"!  I'm not sure I am ready to put all of my eggs in one basket (HA) for a few reasons.  I don't think I can work a full time job and care for quadruplets or more, I don't think my body could handle that many babies and I would like to have a fall back plan if this cycle doesn't work. 

The FET is MUCH cheaper than the IVF cycle.  We did a quick calculation last night and came up with about $2500 plus medication.  Thank goodness our December FET was included with our financed package we are already making payments on.
