I don't know the exact number of follicles my Doc found, but I'm pretty sure I heard him say at least 16! That is GOOD! So just a couple more weeks of BC before we start the IVF meds. Tentatively we'll do the egg retrieval and transfer in mid-July. </p> <p>Is anyone else going through an IVF cycle now? </p> <p>Any advice for those who have gone through IVF recently? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/back-on-bc#post-164282 Mon, 21 May 2012 10:47:24 +0000 heffalump 164282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@GreenThumb: Awww... it's easy to be supportive of such a great group of girls.... and Mr. Bee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/back-on-bc#post-164228 Mon, 21 May 2012 09:59:45 +0000 GreenThumb 164228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cat in the Cradle: Thank you!

I'll be on BC for a few weeks to down regulate everything before starting with the meds to stimulate my ovaries.</p> <p>It still seems surreal that things have worked out this way. And I have moments of doubt about whether we are jumping into it too quickly, but then I remember the stats (we were only given a 2% of getting pregnant on our own with DH's low morphology and my possible blocked tube) and I feel more confident again. </p>
