Hi all . Today I am 16+2 and coming up on my loss milestone. Jesse was born at 17 wks and this week was when things started going wrong. I am a bundle of nerves.
But, I had a good u/s appt on weds that showed a healthy baby and a long and closed cervix so I'm holding onto that!!
When I was struggling through IF and even now, ( bc it is always there!) I lived the quote: "We will be the lucky ones this time," "When the odds are 1 in a million, be that 1," and,"You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it."
Lots of love and hopeful thoughts for positive cycles and appts!

Hey All! I check on you all often and hold you in my thoughts and prayers.
As for me...I'm 18.5 weeks pregnant with Twins! We found out last week that we were having 2 boys! My husband is beyond thrilled. I'm being followed by my OBGYN and the high risk dr as they think one of the babies might have a hole in his heart. I'm not going to believe it just yet.
QOTD...The one thing that always got me through was looking at each of the embryos as one of my future children. My husband use to tell me when I got down that I could not give up on our kids it isn't fair to them!
Wishing you all the luck in the world!
TTC 2007
Me-OK DH- MFI
2010 IUI 1-3 Femara + Ovidrill BFN
Change DR 5/12 IUI 4-5 Natural Cycle BFN
5/13 DH diagnosed with b1/b3 microdeletion of Y chromosome
IVF #1 July Started Lupron 7/5 AF 7/14
ER 8/1 7R 5M 3F W/ICSI ET 8/6 Moved to 8/7 due to no blast
I have had 2 ultrasounds, showed 2 sacs and rising betas. Going tomorrow (6 weeks,2 days) for another ultrasound to check on growth (they check for gestational sac, crl, fetal pole and maybe a heartbeat tomorrow). Honestly, it's stressful because I've read that there's 'vanishing twin' syndrome that can happen, 20% of the time. So I've been worrying and praying all weekend that both stick. I had no quote that got me through IF unfortunately.
Hi ladies!! I’ll be 15 weeks tomorrow and so far I’m still feeling pretty sick, but overall I’m doing ok. I’m just grateful to have made it to the second trimester. I don’t have another OB appointment and ultrasound for 3 more weeks so until then I’m going to relax and start researching what I should be registering for.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Good luck on your upcoming cycles!!!
QOTD: I didn't have an inspirational quote, but I do have a Saint Gerard prayer card that I keep on my nightstand. I would recite the prayer for motherhood almost every morning (I still do) and it helped me keep strong.
January 2014:BFP!!!! Ectopic pregnancy ruptured at 6wks1day. Left Fallopian tube removed. Noted during surgery the right Fallopian tube is severely damaged from 2004 ectopic pregnancy.
