Two shots this morning (I'm getting to be an expert) Felt hopeful about this cycle this morning, now feeling the exact opposite. What happened??
Hi There.
- ~Carrie
- I'm a 40 year-old computer geek who married the world's coolest guy in 2005. We've known each other since we were kids and do just about everything together, except we couldn't seem to create offspring together. Ironic, isn't it? Thanks to IVF, we finally wound up with a 2 RLBs (real live babies).... and I have now just entered new territory... a surprise, unassisted pregnancy (!?)
Here's the deal:
11/07/11 - I sit here in disbelief. Did I mention that I am 40?
11/06/11 - 2 lines on a pregnancy test.
06/03/10 - DS is born 3 weeks early, no time for an epidural! I continue to ignore my blog.
Fall 2009 - IVF #2 a success! (and I totally ignore my blog)
Sept/Oct 2009: Already time for IVF #2, since I'm not geting any younger...
10/23/08: My DD is born!
10/16/08: OB visit.
08/21/08: Another u/s.
07/31/08: GD 3-hr Test - passed!
07/24/08: GD Screening - failed!
06/06/08: The BIG u/s - a healthy baby!
04/07/08: NT scan.
03/18/08: 1st OB appointment.
03/11/08: Graduate from RE.
02/26/08: Heartbeat!
02/20/08: 1 gestational sac!
02/08/08: First ever BFP!
01/08: IVF #1. 2 blastsbabies transferred. Continuing acupuncture.
12/07: IVF prep month. No meds. Confirm one good follie mid-cycle while at RE for IVF mock transfer. Continue acupuncture. Try au naturale... plus Presee.d and proges. support. BFN.
11/07: IUI #5 & Clom.id & Menap.ur. Continue acupuncture. Lots of extra BDing w/Presee.d. BFN.
10/07: No IUI. Gonal.F and follicle monitoring. Start acupuncture. BFN
09/07: IUI #4 & Gonal.F BFN.
08/07: IUI #3 & Gonal.F. BFN.
07/07: IUI #2 & Clom.id BFN.
06/07: IUI #1. First consult w/RE. Clom.id 100mg. Progesteron.e fixed LP defect. BFN.
05/07: Clom.id 100mg. Realized leuteal phase (LP) was a little short. BFN.
04/07: SA for DH - fine. Clom.id 50mg. BFN.
03/07: HSG - no problems.
05/06-02/07: Try the old fashioned way. Temps and OPKs indicate I'm O'ing monthly. Cycles always 26-28 days... so why am I not pregnant?!
Fall '05: Marry DH.

i found your website through Cyclesista. I Am on my first IUI and first time using injectibles. I just wanted to say Good luck this cycle. I hope the IF merry go-round is kind to you and you start feeling hopeful soon. The best part about this communinty is when you don't have any more hope, the blogosphere holds it for you!
Shoot girl- complain away! Your blog = your thoughts! I think you have written quite well and I have enjoyed reading your blog. Welcome to the blogosphere by the way!:)
Nothing happened - it's just another day in hormoneville.
And don't worry about complaining. Complain away!!
Welcome to the bloggy land.
We all go through the ups and downs on a regular basis. It's okay if one day you are hopeful and the next a writhing mess of emotions. That's what drinks aare for.... oh and friends too! Hang on. We're here for you.
