Hi All,
I know I've been MIA for a while, but I'm trying to catch up a bit.

In our news, the almost 5-month old baby slept all night last night: 7:30 pm to 5:30 am! My goodness! So great!
And that was at the end of a GREAT day because DW did her first IUI! We snuck in one, even though she was traveling until Saturday. She got two injectibles, grew a nice follicle, had a great lining, triggered on Monday and yesterday was a go! We thawed two of our vials for it, leaving us 12, so that's pretty good. We had 10 million swimmers when I got pregnant and that was kind of a low number for one vial, so that's why they suggested 2. We ended up with 14 million for her, which we feel good with.
I'm super happy her lining was good because she had to have a fibroid removed last month. It was a little stressful because our regular RE was out so the Assistant had to do the IUI. She was great!
Now to make her eat pineapple, do acupressure for conception and test out that trigger!
Whee!

"Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer have even a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place.”
