Unsure whether to start round 2

[jodesxx]

Just about to start our second and final NHS round after two failed transfers. My grandmother has just died and I'm devastated and really wondering if I should put our cycle on hold but if would be for two months due to moving at end of March.

I'm due to start noreistherone next Friday but I doubt we will know date of funeral by that point and concerned if dates will clash etc as provisional egg collection is 22.02.

Just not sure whether we should delay two months or just go ahead as planned but then if the funeral clashes, I'd have to cancel.

Does anyone know if say we realise a couple of days into taking noreistherone there is likely to be a clash, are my clinic likely to let me take it for a couple of extra days?

Thanks xx

@jodesxx I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother my clinic extended the length of the norethisterone by 2 days because they had to stagger patients, so I think it’s possible. But you’d have to decide whether your can adjust it given that you may not know dates as yet.

The other thing to consider is whether you’re in the best emotional state to have the treatment right now, it sounds like there’s a lot going on and as you’ve had treatment before you will know that this will add extra pressure. I only say this as my specialist constantly tells me is to try and stop stressing and how she wants the conditions to be right.

I think the best option would be to tell your clinic about the situation and see what they say.

I agree with PP. Ask and see what they say.

My doctor told me that stress won't interfere with conception unless it becomes distress. Still, you might want to feel you've given it your very best shot, and the worry of a potential clash might be best avoided.

Sorry about your grandmother

@Gardenlady543 @Yokey thank you.

We are hoping to know the funeral date by mid next week so will go from there. We are hoping it will be within the next three weeks but there are obsivoily delays at the moment. I'm due to start noreistherone today on Friday so think I'll call them to talk through Wednesday/Thursday xx
