After a sleepless night, a couple of mental breakdowns, and additional discussions with the nurse at the REs office, we've decided to hold off on starting IVF until early October.
I got a call from the RE's office this morning because they realized that, because of where I am in my cycle, the only way for me to make it into their IVF schedule for August is if I started taking the meds MONDAY. I nearly had a meltdown when the nurse called this morning to tell me this.
Although I am afraid of waiting too long and my chances decreasing with time, I'm not mentally ready to jump into all of that yet. We can't make it work for September because DH will be traveling in Europe for work around the time he would need to be here to do his part <cough>, so we have to wait until the following cycle in early October. I am trying to tell myself that 2 extra months won't make that much difference.
We're going to still attend the IVF class in 2 weeks to learn more about the process, which might help me calm down a little and allow us to decide for sure if this is what we want to do. I also have a consult with another doc scheduled for early August to get a second opinion.
We'll continue trying on our own the next two cycles. I also think I'm going to see if I can manage to weasel my way into going on DH's trip to Europe in September. I need a vacation.
Thanks for all of the kind words and messages during my total freakout yesterday. I can't promise I won't have any more during this process, but it's nice to know y'all are around for moral support!
