Pregnant after IF

No more TEAM GREEN....

Our little GIRL is here!

Long story short.  Induction with no progress sucks worse than anything.  Ever.  Ever.  Ever!  ::shudders::

Over 45+ hours of labor before breaking for an epidural, Elizabeth Kate was born on 6-29 weighing 5 lbs 9 oz and 17 3/4 inches long.

We're fighting jaundice, which is making nursing a bit harder for us, but we're getting there!

  • Congrats, kdg! We are also fighting jaundice and I am exclusively pumping because we have had a terrible time trying to BF due to a combo of lethargy, latching issues, and her small size. We're seeing an LC tomorrow and hoping for some help with BFing. Naama was in an incubator under bili lights for 2 days so that did help get her bilirubin numbers in check. Anyway, I definitely feel you on the BFing/jaundice issues. So glad to hear Elizabeth got here safely, though I am sorry your induction was sooo long!
    IUIs #1-3 (1x unmedicated, 2x Clomid) = 2 BFNs, 1 m/c at 7w3d
    IUIs #4-6 (injects) = 3 BFNs
    IVF #1 = BFN
    FET #1 = BFN
    FET #2 = BFN
    IVF #2 = BFP, b/g twins lost at 20w due to partial abruption/PPROM
    IVF #3 = c/p 5w2d
    Long-shot Clomid/Prednisone cycle before next IVF = BFP, our beautiful, healthy girl born 6/26/13!
