Anyone gearing up for IVF in September?

[Youngatheart00]

We are looking at round 3 in September - want to be able to enjoy the summer and also get fit and healthy before going through the emotional, physical and financial rollercoaster again!

Anyone else planning a Sept cycle and want to join and share experiences as we plan?

Hi - Yes hopefully we are having our first cycle beginning of Sept with Create Birmingham. Our CCG referred us from BWH -not our request but can't do nothing about it.

Create said they aren't starting treatment until beginning of August so fingers crossed we can start in September :)

I hear good things about Create - fingers crossed we can be cycle buddies. We are going to be private pay again as our NHS funding is finished (only got one round) so a positive of that is that we can start whenever we’re ready. AF will be due (on current pattern) middle of the month so I’ve got 11 weeks to get myself in top shape for it all!!

Is this your first cycle @jm2020?

Yes first cycle :)

We were due to start in March but COVID 19 shut it down.

11 weeks will soon fly by :)

What clinic will you be with?

Hopefully!

We are waiting to start back up with our clinic... they have told us there is a backlog due to Covid so we aren't quite sure when but I think September looks likely.

Gives me a bit of time to get as fit as poss and enjoy the summer.

good luck!

Hello, sorry late reply.

I’ve started on the pre natal vitamins and ubiquinol again this week.

Bit nervous about sharing clinic in case it’s outing (I know, I’m weirdly paranoid about this stuff, but it’s only because we’re not telling anyone IRL about this third cycle.

Also trying to get fit and healthy in prep, this will be our third round in a year and my weight has only gone one way (rapidly) over the last 9 months.

I'm going to be late Sept or early Oct depending on what my cycle does! First time for me, so good to have some cycle buddies! I'm just starting all the supplements recommended by the consultant... 11 tablets a day!! Still haven't quite got my head used to the idea that we're actually doing IVF... Keep secretly thinking it will magically happen before then, but I've never had a positive test (tried all the clomid, letrozole etc) so my body obviously isn't up for it sadly!
