We may be in March after all...

It looks like we should be able to do an end of March/early April IVF after all! I should have the $$ for the meds hopefully today (thank goodness for tax returns!). I'm debating on whether I should order the meds right away to have them in hand or if I should wait until I get my period to make sure I didn't miraculously get pregnant this cycle. I would be on birth control pills next cycle so I don't have to wonder if I'm pg or not then. (Help me decide by voting in my poll in the upper right hand corner) Because that would be my luck....spend a TON of money on drugs I cannot return and then I'd be pregnant. Not that I wouldn't be thrilled beyond words but that's a lot of money!! ;-) SO I'm debating. I'm 3 DPO (days past ovulation) right now so I'm not sure if I should wait or not. I think I'm going to call the RE's office today and let them know I'll be ready to start up again once I get AF (Aunt Flo) and make sure they don't have any tests they want me to take since it's been a year since I started there. I know I said April would be great but honestly I'm thrilled to do the IVF as soon as I can. Also, Acu is expensive and this week and next I go 3 times a week, the next is 2 times a week....at that rate I'm going to blow through my 20 sessions that my insurance covers and not even get to my IVF!! After the 2-times-a-week week I am going to seriously tell her I can only do once a week if I'm going to be able to do it during my IVF which is the whole point. I love my Acu DR and I feel better than I have in years since I started going there. I feel more "balanced" and I am handling stress VERY well. It's amazing how much the feeling of stress and sadness in my life has just disappeared. It honestly feels like a miracle to me. Anyway -my Acu doctor says that I will be "ready" for an end of March transfer so I'm going to accept that and happily get going on it. :-) I'm quite excited and it feels like everything is sort of falling into place how it should be. Hopefully that is a good sign. :-)

Great news all around. Yes, I'd call the clinic and let them know you'll be starting soon, so they can verify that you're ready to go don't need to get them anymore approvals/paperwork. As for the acu, I'd switch that up a bit...go once/week now and save the twice/week for when you're cycling. I guess your acupuncturist will tell you what she recommends, but that's what I would do.

My fingers/toes are crossed for you!!!
