Hi to all - I am so glad to have found this board. I am 41.5, have one failed IVF 11/10 and one successful IVF that ended in a miscarriage at 8 weeks (2/11). We have moved on to donor eggs for many different reasons We are participating in a shared cycle at SGF in Rockville. I am finished with the bcp and lupron and we have now down 4 estrogen IM injections. Does anyone one know if it is ok to have wine during the estrogen injections? My nurse said they discourage but I am wondering about what other's experiences have been. I am fine not to have it but a glass or 2 would definitely take the edge off. Our donor is tentatively scheduled for a retrieval on 6/28 (she just started the stim meds on friday 6/17). Any info or advice would be appreciated. This period of limbo is really tough - at least with my own eggs, I felt like I was doing something, now, I just feel useless. (I have struggled with this decision). thanks for listening!
