Hello ladies of IF,
I have lurked here on and off for a while now, and I am getting ready to do my first round of IVF in January, so I thought it was time to start participating here. Hi, I'm BlueJell0, and I recognize some of you from 3T... hello again 
My history in a nutshell: we have been trying since August 2012, and had 1 natural BFP during IF testing that ended in a CP. We did 4 Clomid cycles and 3 IUIs, which resulted in 2 more early m/c's. We took some time off because I was in no shape to continue trying, I got some counseling... and here we are! I am still pretty scared of another loss but I am starting to be more hopeful that this could actually work for us.

I am still pretty scared of another loss but I am starting to be more hopeful that this could actually work for us. The plan right now is to do antagonist protocol and an ER in January w/ PGS, then FET in February. I look forward to getting to know all of you, and I am sure I will have questions in the future, right now it's all still kind of overwhelming!
