Everyone Meet Ripley!! Thank y'all so much for your suggestions. H was amazing and slightly overwhelmed by all of them.
So, we got a new fur baby today. She is a beautiful 8 month old Doberman. She is so stinking cute. H and I are over the moon in love with her. We have been going back and forth about when we would get new dogs since both of our old fur babies crossed the Rainbow Bridge. She is amazing and has settled in better than we thought!! She needs a new name as we are not a fan of the one she came with so suggestions and ideas are very appreciated!!
Without further ado, our new fur baby!!! (And yes, I am one of those who take to many pics!)

When I look at her I see strength and courage. I looked up names that have to do with bravery, strength and courage and like Audrey, Sasha, and my favorite Bernadette. You could call her Bernie for short. Lol
IVF #1, Stimmed for 12 days, ER 8/22/14, 9 retrieved, 7M, 7F!! Freeze all due to fluid in uterus.
FET end of October 2014 cancelled due to fluid in uterus due to possible c-scar defect
Surgery scheduled 12/12/14 to fix possible isthmocele
3/26/15 transferred one 8 cell grade 4 embryo and one 6 cell grade 3 embryo = slow rising betas for 2+ weeks = ectopic MTX shot 4/29/15

2nd and last IVF cycle August 2015, stimmed for 12 days, 2 egg retrieved, both mature and both fertilized. Transferred both 8-cell embryos on Day 3, beta 9/5/15 = BFFN
My dog's name is India because I like India Pale Ale (it is a little awkward explaining at times). Is there a food, spice, or drink you really like? Nutmeg (Meg), Dublin (because she is Black and Tan - like the drink), Rye? Or a favorite literary character? I had a cat named Hank after a Henry in a book.

*I am no longer regularly posting on TB because of the fucked up debacle of Jan 2015 when administrators banned long-term members and mods with no notice and completely dismantled a community full of women who cared about each other. If you see me posting it's only to give support to a poster who needs it or to post something important enough that I need to say. I am no longer responding to anything other than issues that affect people who I care about*
37 years old, MH is 42
TTC since 2010; Dx Unexplained Infertility; possible male factor
August 2012 through June 2013: 6 IUIs with clomid and trigger shot, all BFNs
7/2013, Pregnant! Unmedicated--we were on a treatment break
8/20/13 no heart beat; 8/23/13 d&c
3/15/14 IVF #1: Lupron/Follistim/Menopur; ER 3/10 resulting in four transfer grade blastocysts, transferred one pretty blast and froze the remaining three. BFN.
Natural FET in May cancelled because the universe hates me my hormones were not cooperating.
6/24/14 FET #1: transferred two pretty embryos; BFN
8/28/14 FET #2: BFP, ended in Chemical pregnancy
Done with medical intervention and getting used to the idea of CFNBC.
@Amybunny30 For a puppy she is pretty chill. We have some submissive wetting we need to get over so she can come inside more often (we have carpet). Other than that she is really awesome. Really intelligent and already figuring out she can't get away with the same stuff her previous owners let her do. I think she is going to be a great fit, we just need the perfect name.
