Aunt Flo!!!! Yippee!!! This was a long cycle for me….30 days. Normally AF is here in full force by day 27, usually sooner. I am glad she arrived though so we can get moving with the FET.
As instructed I called the office upon realizing it was here. I left a message and will now wait for the return phone call. I do have all the paperwork, which indicates I am to start the estadiol tomorrow – 1 2mg tablet 3 times a day – vaginally. Now I have a few questions about that…first of all…..EWWW GROSS!! I have to stick that little pill up my hoo-ha during AF EWWWW!!!! So my question to you is…can I still use a tampon or do I have to use a pad (which I cannot stand using)? I almost think you would have to use a tampon to keep the little sucker up there? Wouldn't the force of AF cause it to come out if I don't? I am just grossed out by the idea of sticking my finger up there during AF….GROSS!!! Maybe I can figure out a way to balance it on the applicator an shove it up there with the tampon. This will be….um…..interestin….as well as GROSS!!! Have I mentioned how GROSS this is going to be????
So anyway, Cars opened yestreday and I cannot wait to go see it. M and I will probably head down to the drive-in movie theater to see it tonight. Unless we are feeling lazy tonight, then we'll just go to one of the local theaters. The drive-in is about 2 hours away, which is fine for the drive down, but then we end up beginning the drive back around midnight…ugh. Fortunately M. does all the driving! 
Oh and without really knowing my full schedule, it is looking like my tx could end up on my birthday!!!!

I’ve had to use Estrace vaginally before but never during my period. That does not sound like much fun. Good luck with it. And good luck with the FET!

Good luck! Not sure about the tampon/pad thing, but I’m thinking maybe pads so the tampon doesn’t soak it all up? Probably totally bad assvice….

Yay for AF and the start of a FET! I’m not taking my estrace vaginally (I have the oral kind) but I have taken prometrium vaginally and I’m almost positive they told me not to use tampons. Ick Ick and more ick having to do that during AF. The things we do for a family.
We are cyclesistas – I just started my FET cycle recently too – if I can manage to get through the estradiol fog this next week and a half, I’ll have my transfer on 6/23.
Good luck!!! I am hoping for good things for the both of us.

Will be holding thumbs for u. We also got married in 2001 and hubby was declared infertile in 2004. It’s been a long road but no baby yet. Am saving up for next treatment – just wish we could afford to do a treatment every month until pregnant! Keep updating your blog!
