Starting IVF cycle number 2 - the lucky cycle!!

OK so this morning I went to the clinic. I wanted to be brave and go by myself as we have been through this before there is not for both of us to miss work together. So of course I make it there on time but I cannot find parking. I scream in my car for 20 minutes and then end up dumping my car in the middle of the road.. hoping it's still there by the time I get back.

I make it to the appointment and I am ready. As usual my RE goes through my history and overviews the previous cycle. To her the failure of my last cycle is still a mystery and she is more determined than ever to get this one to be the one that works. I love the attitude and it does rub off on me!!

I then have my usual u/s, the joys of having internal u/s during my period are endless. Not surprisingly there isn't much activity in my ovaries. She prints out the pics of my ovaries and my uterus and I get dressed. She then takes out my schedule plan, finally I will know what drugs I will be on and how much!!! I am hoping that given my good results this month, the dosage will be less than in cycle one. I am also secretly hoping for one of those gonal f pens... they look so easy and simple!!! Well I am lucky but not 100% lucky.. I did get a lower dosage instead of the 600 iu of menopur I will be starting on 400 iu of menopur and then the usual microdose luprong everyday but I didn't get the gonal f pen...!

Next check up will be on Sat afternoon and I cannot wait to see how things go!!! In the meantime, I am going to take it easy and avoid stress, I will do my visualisation twice a day or at least once a night and take things easy generally. I will try to eat more protein and drink only decaf coffee. I will concentrate on the positive and avoid negative influences.. I will pray to God and the universe to grant us this miracle...The rest is not in my hands.....
