With that in mind, you should GO FOR IT NOW!!!! Good luck!<br /><br />Pleae keep posting here often.

Course who wouldn't be? As for the time frame.... that is a hard decision. My RE actually wanted me to wait when I would have preferred to go head first into another cycle. I kind of wish we had... I'm at the point now where I'm so afraid to hope anymore and now I don't expect anything from our FET in Sept. Yes I still want it to work... I just can't go through the emotional roller coaster I went through before.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02067905923614291761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292636448663498830.post-7069125000818384482010-07-30T08:09:16.955-07:002010-07-30T08:09:16.955-07:00Well, I can only speak from my experiences with in...Well, I can only speak from my experiences with infertility over five long years. The body is an amazing thing and I believe it recovers faster than we think. The fertility drugs are excreted out of our systems fairly quickly. It's the emotional pain that requires MUCH more time to heal.<br /><br />For me, the best way to begin the healing process was to jump right back in again. There were times I took a couple of months off to "heal" and found myself even sader and counting down the days even more.<br /><br />Of course you value and appreciate your husband's opinion. But, I would listen to what your doctor is telling you too. I've read that fertility dramatically declines once a woman hits her mid-thirties. We are in the prime of our lives in other areas, just not fertility...ha!<br /><br />YOU are the one going through the uncomfortable procedures, countless appointments, side effects of the drugs, etc, etc. I think you should listen to what your heart is saying. I am 37 and I know each month is like a clock going tick tock, tick tock. I felt more pressure at my age to try as soon as my period came. If I were in my 20's, I'd would have taken more time off between cycles.<br /><br />My advice is to go for it as SOON as you can. I wish you all the best and will continue to read your blog. You have a lot of followers that are so proud of you and are cheering you on!!<br />MichelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292636448663498830.post-47153154518539598972010-07-30T06:44:41.633-07:002010-07-30T06:44:41.633-07:00I am currently in my first cycle post an IVF chemi...I am currently in my first cycle post an IVF chemical pregnancy and agree that the body does take time to recover. I have been charting for several years and am lucky enough to have normal cycles ranging between 28 to 30 days. This cycle is quite different. I am currently on cycle day 36, never detected ovulation and no signs of starting my period any time soon. Even though the IVF cycle has long passed and all tears have been dried, this cycle is a reminder to me that my body is still recovering.<br /><br />On the other hand, I agree with your doctor as well. Although labs are excellent today (thank God), at some point they will go south (it happens to every woman).<br /><br />My vote would be to split the difference. Allow your body (and mind) a couple of cycles to recover and aim to cycle again in October. You could be done with the cycle before the hustle and bustle of the holidays and before the winter weather hits and makes travel more difficult.<br /><br />Whatever you decide, I will be reading, cheering you on AND wishing you all the best!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
