Granted I'm only 3 months pregnant now, I'm debating the breastfeeding topic. I would def like to do some, but not exclusively, so DH and others can 'help' with the baby and a great way to do that is feeding, of course! We did an IVF retrieval in Dec and froze all eggs (had 37, 27 fertilized). First FET was unsuccessful, second was a winner! I've had no symptoms except some cramping and tiredness, so more or less, symptom-less. Baby is due in Nov and we'd like to do another FET around Mar/Apr if we're allowed, as we have 19 frosties left. (IVF is not the fastest route to 4 kids, but it'll get us there!) Anyone know for how long you need to be completely breastfeeding free before an FET? Ded thinking of pumping and doing a BM/formula mix... Thoughts? Thanks!
March 2011: Off Nuva, cycle back to "normal" for me: No periods since 15 years old.
June 2011:Provera&50 mg Clomid; Progesterone:0.7
July 2011:Provera&100mg Clomid; Progesterone:3.29
Met with RE:No Clomid response, begin injectables Sep
5 mg Letrozole and Ovidrel in the interim month. Cut out running (was a distance-runner), cycling, eliptical. Restricted to weight-training, walking, pilates. Brain MRI normal. Being physically over-stressed is the reason the body stopped producing prog.
Late Sep 2011: Menopur, Ovidrel,& IUI (10.10.11):BFN-Great injectable response: 2 mature, 6 near mature, many smaller; Problem: 9 cysts! Dr: IUI too uncontrolled for number of viable eggs & age. On to IVF! IVF ER 12.6: 37 mature eggs, 27 fertilized, froze all to avoid overstimulation; FET 1.22 (2 Grade 1)=BFN; FET 2.22 (3 Grade 2)=BFP! Beta 10dp3dt=291; 12dp3dt=644; HB 3.26!! 174 bpm: Vanishing twin almost completely absorbed 10wks
