yes you understood correctly.
Rather t...Hi Anais-<br /><br />yes you understood correctly.<br /><br />Rather than jump directly to IVF, we had done our research and read that for some couples a mixed protocol (clomid + injectibles) yielded positive results. And we discussed trying this with our RE before moving straight to IVF, which I was not feeling ready for.<br /><br />Our RE actually wasn't too encouraging about doing a mixed protocol, and I have to say it was my husband who insisted. I think by that point I was just too discouraged.<br /><br />We did it and as uncomfortable as injecting oneself was, it wasn't too bad and allowed us the greatest gift : life.<br /><br />Our daughter is a darling and I am thankful every single day that she is ours. That never quite leaves you.<br /><br />Good luck! And happy to answer any other questions you have.pregnant in manhattanhttp://tryinginnyc.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-277645337057523938.post-80247269830262958402011-10-26T07:59:20.053-07:002011-10-26T07:59:20.053-07:00Hello!
Thanks for your blog, a few years later it ...Hello!<br />Thanks for your blog, a few years later it is still very useful :).<br />i don't know if you still read the comments but I am going to try my luck:<br />- I am doing my 4th round of clomid and if it doesn't work moving to injectibles in November.<br />- you said you were supposed to move straight to IVF but you are doing a round of clomid+gonal-F, isn't that a round of injectibles? Or am I misunderstanding and it is actually a step between clomid alone and injectibles?<br />Sorry a bit confused and trying to understand what is going to happen to me if this round of clomid doesn't work and I move to injectibles. If it is the same as you the protocol doesn't seem too painful...<br />Hope your toddler is growing well :) TTC2 soon?<br />Best,<br />AnaisAnaisnoreply@blogger.com
