Hi there!

in Infertility
I'm not new to TB as I've been on TTGP and 3T for a little over a year…. I recognize some of you on here- and Jschwind recommended I join in here. So here I am.
The first week in March will mark 3 years of TTC. We've been through 5 medicated cycles last year with Clomid or Femara (3 TI and 2 IUI), and 7 with acupuncture only before moving on to IVF this cycle. We really had a hard time wrapping our heads around infertility.
We just got done with stims on Thanksgiving and ER was this morning. We're hoping for a 5 day transfer.
So hello- I see a bunch of really knowledgeable and honest ladies here. I'm looking forward to being active here.
