frozen embryo transfer: what to expect??

it seems like very few of us have been through a frozen cycle, but i'm hoping someone can remember what it was like. i have my second b/w & u/s next thursday. i will have been on lupron for two weeks and estrogen for a week, but that's all i know.
what comes next? how many u/s's does it take before the transfer? how long from the start of the lupron to the transfer?
i know. i know. it all depends on how my body reacts to the meds, but gosh, i just wish i had a little more information on what to expect. it feels like i can't plan anything in my life until i know more, which sucks because i need to figure out when to be at work and when not & when to work the late shift/on-call and when not. ugh!! eeeerrrrrr!! what's with all the being in the dark and waiting!? it's SO frustrating!

thanks for letting me blow off steam, but i really do hope someone can recall a frozen cycle and tell me about it. :-(

Hi I did not do any lupron for my frozen cycle.  Just estrogen every 3 days and progesterone shots and suppositories starting the day before the transfer He did 2 ultrasounds to check my endometrium and that was that.    I was on bedrest for 2 days after transfer.    3 office visits only.  Good luck with your cycle.  Baby dust to you.

thank you soooooo much for helping me to know (kinda') what to expect.
it helps me to make a decision about changing a shift with someone at work. i was agonizing over the decision (which needs to be made by today at the latest) and now i know that my gut (and advice from good friends) were leading me in the right direction.
i should listen to my gut more often! :-)
thanks again!!
