We are emotionally and financially exhausted so there will be no more cycling. We are pleased to have our son, and it would have been nice for another, but I am getting off this roller coaster.

It was disappointing to get the biochemical, BFN and ectopic in Canada. ...]]> Tue, 16 Mar 2010 16:50:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-4044-the-journey-has-ended/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-4037-2nd-beta/
The beta dropped. I honestly can't recall the number, but it was something around 38-44.

I am to stay on my meds and repeat the beta. The lab is closed on Monday so I will go in on Tuesday. I was told not to rule anything out until the next number comes in. There is a chance I had 2 and lost 1, or...]]> Fri, 12 Mar 2010 19:15:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-4037-2nd-beta/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-4022-the-results-are-in/
I did poas (yes, I kept it a secret) so I was hopeful for a positive.

With my son, the clinic made me go through the anxiety of bi-weekly and then weekly repeats for a month and then E2 and P4 continued for another...]]> Wed, 10 Mar 2010 19:06:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-4022-the-results-are-in/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3998-no-frosties/
We had 6 other embies, and I would have expected a couple of frosties. ...]]> Tue, 02 Mar 2010 20:58:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3998-no-frosties/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3988-et-done/
I rescheduled my flight home to Monday (from Thursday). To my amazment I wasn't charged a change fee. It might have been because I used...]]> Sat, 27 Feb 2010 23:24:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3988-et-done/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3985-apparently-my-son-was-on-tv/
The 12:30 flight didn't board until 2:30. That's OK, the weather was not that good and it happens. But then I as am watching their flight on flight tracker I notice they didn't actually take off until around 5:30 pm. There was no good on the plane and my husband...]]> Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:27:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3985-apparently-my-son-was-on-tv/ http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3979-er-update/

I went in today for blood work and ultrasound and everything looks good.

The tentative schedule has ER on February 26th.

I don't think this has really sunk in yet. DH is on the west coast right now, so for the first time since he was 3 months old, I am alone for a week with DS. The first 3 days...]]> Sun, 14 Feb 2010 01:33:00 +0000 http://ivf.ca/forums/blog/53/entry-3908-the-countdown-is-on/
