PAIF/SAIF always welcome! Its a girl!
TTC#2 No birth control since DD was born. Getting ready to jump back in the saddle. Weaning this month. RE
appt scheduled 5/8. Here we go again!
11/13 beta #1 924!!! 2nd bet 11/15 1906, one more on 11/17 3rd & final beta 3430. First u/s 12/5, 7w4d, 2 heartbeats,
Induction started slowly at just about 8am...I was already 3cm, but still not as effaced as necessary. Hung out in latent labor for 5-6 hours. Avoided the epidural for a while, but I wasn't thrilled with my choices for anesthesia providers that were in the hospital yesterday. So the one person I wanted was only available early in the day. Figured I wouldn't take my chances and got the epidural before he was no longer around. What a wonderful thing!! Was 6cm by 3:30 pm and then we repositioned me to try and get LO to rotate, since he was coming down sunny-side up. Boy...within 30 minutes, the pressure I was feeling was really intense. I was rechecked and was 9cm! Labored down for a bit and when we were finally ready, pushed for about 20 minutes and out he came! He had a really tight cord around the neck...which I knew about from ultrasound on Wednesday. This was part of the reason we ended up choosing to induce. I'm glad we decided to get him out while the going was still good!!
We have been up most of the night since they were checking his sugars because of his weight. Thankfully he passed them all and is now sleeping peacefully on my chest
We are over the moon in love! Thank you ladies for all the support and well wishes! This journey wouldn't have been the same without having you all along for the ride!!!
3 Clomid IUIs -- BFNs
IVF #1 never made it to transfer
On "egg health" cocktail DHEA/CoQ10/FRC/Pregnitude/Melatonin
Starting IVF #2 for Feb 2013
Follistim/Menopur/Ganirelix
Cancelled mid-cycle due to high P4 levels early on.
OCPs again for IVF 2.5 mid-March. IVF 2.5 transferred two "gorgeous" 5-day blasts and BFFN. Even REI is baffled
On indefinite hold until a huge stroke of serendipity led me to IVF 3 May 2014
Testing found positive cardiolipins/APS, now on lovenox and intralipid infusions
Transfer of 2 5-day blasts and (FINALLY) BFFP!! 1st ultrasound shows two sacs and two HB, but one is sluggish, almost expecting vanishing twin Subsequent ultrasound confirmed vanishing twin, but my other Little critter looks fantastic!
