Our snowflake girl is here!!!

liz4pawsliz4paws member
in Pregnant after IF
I wanted to post a quick announcement that our much anticipated and prayed for snowflake girl finally made her arrival on July 22 at 7:39am. She weighed in at 7lb1oz, 19.5 inches long. I had a scheduled c-section that got bumped up due to mild pre-e and the night before the c-section I was watching TV (couldn't sleep because I was too excited.) About an hour before we were supposed to leave for the hospital to get the party started, my water broke all on it's own. Talk about crazy timing! So no matter what, she was supposed to come that day. We just came home yesterday and I can't express how much I love this little girl. I can't believe I'm a mom, and that's something I couldn't say without the miracle of embryo adoption and for our amazing genetic families who donated their embryos to us.

I'll leave you with some pictures!

    She's gorgeous! I remember you from IFV and am soooooooo happy for your little miracle!
    Married 2007
    3 Clomid IUIs -- BFNs
    IVF #1 never made it to transfer
    On "egg health" cocktail DHEA/CoQ10/FRC/Pregnitude/Melatonin
    Starting IVF #2 for Feb 2013
    Follistim/Menopur/Ganirelix
    Cancelled mid-cycle due to high P4 levels early on.
    OCPs again for IVF 2.5 mid-March. IVF 2.5 transferred two "gorgeous" 5-day blasts and BFFN. Even REI is baffled
    On indefinite hold until a huge stroke of serendipity led me to IVF 3 May 2014
    Testing found positive cardiolipins/APS, now on lovenox and intralipid infusions
    Transfer of 2 5-day blasts and (FINALLY) BFFP!! 1st ultrasound shows two sacs and two HB, but one is sluggish, almost expecting vanishing twin Subsequent ultrasound confirmed vanishing twin, but my other Little critter looks fantastic!
