Once again nothing seems to want to work out for me
I need a few hugs please!! OK so im late getting my period and i called the Re today to tell him and he asked if i was PG and i told him no i tested. so he wants to see me monday to see whats going on. But then tells me since i didnt get my period i wont be able to start IVF till sept cause they close the last two weeks in aug. it would if worked out if i got my period on time but NOPE it didnt. Im a teacher and we had it all planned out perfect we would do IVF over the summer so i didnt have to miss the morning hours of work. Now im going to have to for sept and some of oct. im scared my boss isnt going to be happy and im so scared to tell her. im so upset now i wanted to start in the worst way i wanted to get this going and get it over with and i think wanting it so bad made me stress out and throw my cycle off i know its not the end of the world but it just s u c k s! my RE said i should maybe do some Acupuncture to calm me down. he wants me to find things that relax me and keep me calm so this doesnt happen when i start IVF. im just scared about Acupuncture. does it hurt?! thanks for once again listening to me vent !

Re: Once again nothing seems to want to work out for me
I'm so sorry. That is very weird that they close for 2 weeks! I can't even imagine my RE being closed for a day. Can you think about possibly seeing a different RE?
I went for my acupuncture consult today and she put one needle in and it didn't hurt at all!

I'm sorry!
Some clinics close their labs so they can recalibrate the machines and do some other stuff, so most likely your RE meant there would be no retrievals/transfers during that time

I was going to say the same thing...they don't actually close, they just don't do retrievals/transfers. As for waiting to do the cycle...I think it's always better to wait and do things right then to try and rush into it. Knowing that everything else is perfect will make the cycle so much easier. I know it will be hard re: work, but you will only have to take a day or two off...and think, if you do get PG you will have the whole summer off!

surprisingly NSUH told me they are closing around this time. I was shocked, I didnt think they ever closed, and I have been there for forever

Re: Once again nothing seems to want to work out for me
I am so sorry. Unfortunately this is out of your control. Its going to be difficult but with everything in life, you'll find a way to make it work. The best you can do is to stop stressing about something you cannot do anything about (I know easier said than done). Acupuncture and yoga are great ways to reduce stress (even stress you didn't know you had). Acupuncture does not hurt at all. And you actually have a few months now to get yourself stress free. Acupuncture usually takes about 2-3 cycles to make an effect and now you have the time. I know its hard to change your plans, because in your mind you had it all set for now. I used to get crazy if I had to loose a month. Now I have learned that it is what it is. So, in my down time I have been working on getting myself into shape for my next IVF. I don't mean just physically. But, if you have the time, you should plan to do this. I know you are young and its MF, but the better place you are the better chance of success. Plus it does give you the sense that you are doing something and not waisting time. Good luck

Tara, I am so sorry to hear about your delay. As a pp said, it is best not to rush these things. I wish you the best of luck once you start IVF.
