All Welcome
Tomorrow is the Share Walk of Rememberance and Hope for my local Share group (Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss support group). I attended a meeting with my sister (who has been active in the group since her blighted ovum a few years ago) after my c/p last year. I've never felt like I really "belong" to the group, but I met a few women that I clicked with and I am happy to participate in the walk and their fundraising.
I will probably work on Sunday and sometime need to stop by Walgreens for my flu shot. I also need to get everything together for my calendar review on Monday. I need to make sure that everything from Dr. KK's protocol and my RE's protocol is combined correctly. I also need to take a final inventory of my leftover and donated med stash so I know what and how much I need to order for this cycle. Part of me can't believe I am starting meds for IVF #4 in just a few days. I feel really unprepared this time. Normally I am super organized going into a cycle, with lists of when things need to be be done. This time I'm not even getting my calendar until just days before I start prednisone!
TTC #1 since August 2011
My Blog
September 2012: Start IF testing
DH (32): SA is ok, slightly low morph, normal SCSA Me (32): Slightly low progesterone, hostile CM, carrier for CF, Moderately high NKC, High TNFa, heterozyogous mutated Factor XIII, and +APA
October 2012-May 2014: 4 failed IUIs, 3 failed IVFs, and 1 failed FETw/donor embryos
November 2014: IVF w/ICSI #4 Agonist/Antagonist with EPP and Prednisone, Baby Aspirin, Lovenox, and IVIG for immune issues. Converted to freeze all due to lining issues. 2 blasts frozen on day 6!
January 2015: FET #2 Cancelled due to lining issues

PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
Let's go Orioles, let's go!!!
(I'm actually rooting for the Tigers to win today because it'll bring us one step closer to being able to use our game 5 tickets...ssh)
Nothing new for me. One month and nineteen hours until my first second opinion appt.
TTC since 08/2012
DX: DOR
@J&D2007 - maybe see your former RE and ask her thoughts on a lap? Maybe have it done with her? I'm sorry... That's all so frustrating
@sorrellam30 - fx this month flies by and your transfer is here before you know it!!
@Twinkie0612 - yay for getting started!! I totally appreciate the stress of getting everything organized, it's so much work! Hope things go smoothly and fall into place
@ronniesgirl1981 - ugh... Waiting is the worst!! I hate waiting and it's so hard to be patient while in limbo
@RunCC37 - hope you're feeling better. I know I have some form of PTSD from our losses and failed treatments. It's lonely and awful. I have days that I still grieve for the 'what ifs'. Glad you're getting started, hope this is it!
Update - things are busy... I'm a wreck and can't stop thinking about how we will be down to our very last embryo after this FET. Literally taking it day by day, just getting through this... Again.
This weekend my sisters took me out for a belated birthday celebration. We had a great day, really enjoyed the beautiful fall weather. I am so spoiled! They took me to my favorite Mexican restreaunt, ordered me a pomegranite margarita and gave me lots and lots of gifts!!
