Beginning IVF - Cycle day 1

Hey guys... someone in trying to conceive linked this sub to me, so I thought I would say hi. My wife and I have been trying to conceive for over a year. We tried 3 IUIs with her last year with no success. This time we are trying reciprocal IVF, taking her eggs and putting the embryo in me.

Today is day 1 of her period, so in 3 days she will start birth control for 8 days, then a series of meds before her egg retrieval. We will be using frozen donor sperm and FET.

Any advice from the folks here? We have a great Dr that we love... but feeling so much anxiety just due to the cost of all the procedures. Not to mention we only have a few vials of donor sperm left, then we will have to pick a new donor. Which makes me sad to think about, because we agonized over that decision for a while!

Thanks for reading!
