IVF cycle #2 in June

Posted by Julia1977 in Is getting pregnant a dream?, 20 May 2013 · 67 views

Here I am ready and eager to start the second IVF cycle in June. My #1 was Jan/Feb, and I had to wait 4 months as I had to undergo a laparoscopy procedure to remove some cysts.
 
I'm both anxious about and looking forward to this cycle as I will following a protocol that has never been applied before in my clinic, yet has been reported to give bette...

Gone...

Posted by angelpoo11 in Musings of the Reproductively-Challenged, 16 May 2013 · 383 views

I'm sorry but this is going to be a dark and morbid entry about my marriage...

During what should be the happiest time of my life, I feel all alone. I have a great husband. A man that provides for me, cooks for me, listens to me talk, cares about me, and never gets angry... yet... I feel like things are not what they used to be. What happened to our conn...

Serrapeptase, Blocked Fallopian Tubes & HSG Results Hi Ladies,
 
I promised to post my HSG results.  I've been taking serrapeptase since the end of February with a 1 week break. I was treated for PID about 17 years ago and when I had the sonohystergram my right tube was blocked.
 
My HSG was painless (big surprise). Both my tubes are now open although the right tube drained the die slower th...

A different day from a year ago

Posted by galfromaway in galfromaway's Blog, 13 May 2013 · 286 views

The past month, I've spent a lot of time thinking. Where were we a year ago? Still dealing with the disappointment of two failed IVFs. Starting down the path to adoption. Coming to terms with the fact that we wouldn't have a biological child, and slowly becoming ok with that.
 
And now, here we are. I'm sitting at my laptop, watching my daughter nap...

Mixed emotions on this commercial holiday

Posted by impatient in impatient's Blog, 12 May 2013 · 211 views

"Special regards to all women today, bio moms step moms, aunts, and friends, women who extend themselves whatever the circumstances for the love of others."
 
A friend of mine posted that on FB today.  It was so refreshing to look past the many, many "I'm so lucky" posts and family portraits (most of which in my opinion served no purpose but to...

Sharing an article: "Doctors, dentists, pharmacists: The mistakes you can’t know about"

Posted by CoralPink in CoralPink's Blog, 09 May 2013 · 199 views

While in the process of moving from Boston to Montreal, I'm also looking at the potential IVF clinics and physicians to choose from. It's been nice to read both positive and negative comments about each clinic and/or physician here on this site. It gives a global view of what the patients think of a clinic or RE so I value your opinions in helping me sele...

Beyond miscarriage, beyond sadness. Faith and loss

Posted by Camyam73 in Eggs in a basket and other worthless quotes, 02 May 2013 · 374 views

NEVER allow anyone to tell you that you are not pregnant because your faith is not strong enough.  If that were true, all non-Christians around the world would never enjoy the sweet secret elation of carrying a child within their womb, they would literally all be extinct now.  I have faith, and I believe that God has a plan for me, but I cannot...

I did my first session of acupuncture yesterday afternoon.  Today- I feel like I took a valium.  I feel so relaxed it is amazing.  I am just trying to pull out all the stops for this third IVF.  The acupuncturist has worked with other women doing IVF and has had some successes so I feel pretty good about my choice....

Positive Thoughts equal Positive Out outcomes?

Posted by faithhopelove in Faithhopelove's Blog, 12 April 2013 · 928 views

Hi ladies,

I'm writing this blog with good intentions and sharing what may be helpful to others.

I'm a firm believer in positive thinking and creating your future out of thoughts. Sounds easy right? Nope. As much as I do try to not only think positive And be positive, it's not hard for those negative thoughts or outlooks to sneak their way in. And if it...

Proud again

Posted by Rick in Rick's World, 12 April 2013 · 260 views

My little girl took a hard fall in her skate, a painful one, but she got herself back together and managed to score a bronze. Looks like she just caught a rut in the ice. You can see the pain and disappointment in her face. I'm proud she fought through it.

Post WTF appointment update

Posted by Dillydally in Dillydally's Blog, 09 April 2013 · 337 views

DH and I usually discuss our game plan over supper the evening before our WTF appointments and this time was no exception. We went over the options that we thought our doctor would give us. We discussed the various protocols and past cycles to evaluate what we thought would be the best option. I'd already been thinking about a low dose protocol since rega...

Synchronizing with egg donor will be no easy feat

Posted by Dempie in Dempie's Blog, 25 March 2013 · 436 views

In less than a week, I will start cycling again. I am very scared and nervous but at the same time, I am excited and hopeful after so many failed attempts to start our family.
We've had so many disappointments over the years. Let's see...first we found out that DH had no sperm so we moved onto donor sperm. After a few transfers (with 2 early m/c's), we fo...

Done, Done and done

Posted by dougbliss in The Journey , 21 March 2013 · 747 views

It has been 5 years since my DH and I started this journey to have a child of our own. After our first miscarriage, getting pregnant was all I could think about. My heart ached so much because it wasn't easy and  nothing was happening, meanwhile friends and family members were having baby's all over the place! My sister got pregnant in that time...

Beta Dropping or Defective HPT?

Posted by natti in natti's Blog, 12 March 2013 · 722 views

Had initially very faint FRER HPTs on 8dp3dt, 9dp3dt, 10dp3dt.
As you can see from the picture 9dp3dt and 10dp3dt didn't change in color.
I was very depressed and having no FRER left, decided wait till beta.
But NO, something little inside me was constantly reminding me that I had one ClearBlue Digital left and I decided to go with that.
