    @anniemarie887 enjoy the album!

    WAYDTGKU: lots of stuff

    R/R: had my baseline ultrasound this morning. Everything looked good, so we're go to do a medicated cycle and IUI next cycle. It should be interesting because if Letrozole does make me ovulate closer to CD14ish, then O will be right about Christmas. 

    CS/Q: on mobile so nope

    @anniemarie887 what a good way to spend your Friday! That’s definitely a trip to look forward to!

    @fantasyflyte that’s definitely some interesting timing for sure. I hope it all works out, and I’m so glad you’re baseline went well!

    WAYDTGKU: opk & bbt

    R/R: waiting on ff to give me my crosshairs, but my temp didn’t go up quite as much as I would expected today. I got all my running around done early today so the only thing I have left to do is pack my own clothes! I’m super excited for this weekend and I just hope everything goes well and everyone stays safe at our camp!

    @paytonpedro enjoy the weekend! as long as my O isn't on Christmas Day or New Year's Day, it should be fine, because those are the only two days of the year the clinic doesn't do IUIs. Soooo fingers crossed!

    WAYDTGKU: vitamins, OPKs

    R/R: We’re decorating for Christmas at work today, which is fun but has my brain confused about what time of year it is, haha. Work has been so stressful lately that it is a nice distraction. I’m ready for the weekend though. 5K is on Sunday!

    CS/Q: Nope

    congrats on the clean ultrasound, @fantasyflyte!
    History
    I am doing this on my own. Left ovary and fallopian tube removed due to cyst/necrosis just after birth. Right ovary and tube still purport to function.
    Began TTC in Aug '18 @ age 35
    5 or 6 (or 7?!) cycles using frozen donor sperm, ICI. All BFN
    Mar-Jun '19 IUIs, all BFN
    Began process of referral for RE in spring of '19, blood tests confirm low AMH (.54) but all else is good.
    May '19 HSG shows open tube, but ultrasound suggests fibroids
    MRI in June '19 confirms two large fibroids, one growing through wall of uterus
    In June '19 I move from California to Oregon, disrupting my insurance, referrals, etc. 5 months spent piecing it all back together.
    Nov. '19 attempted myomectomy (vaginal approach) failed. 2nd surgery using laparoscopic method in Jan '20 is successful.
    April '20 --> June '20, natural IUIs, all BFN.
    July? saline ultrasound and bubble test demonstrate open tube
    July '20 clomid cycle cancelled for thin lining
    Aug-Oct, 3 femara cycles, all BFN
    RE referral. While waiting to set up an appointment Nov-Jan,I continue with natural cycles and ICI, using a known donor, BFN...
    Jan '21 more bloodwork, AMH is worse (.30), FSH high albeit not catastrophic at 13.2. hysteroscopy all good. "looks cozy!" says the RE.
    Feb '21, injectables (menopur, novarel), iui, BFN (doc said the frozen donor sperm sample had the "best numbers she'd ever seen!")
    Mar '21, injectables, iui cancelled due to lack of follicles, converted to at home-insem. BFN
    May '21, first IVF round cancelled due to cyst.
    July '21 IVF: standard antagonist. 225menupur/225gonal-f/cetrotide/5000u trigger, AFC 7; 6 days of stims. 8 eggs retrieved, 7 mature, 5 fertilize, 4 made it to blast. 3 are 4AB, 1 is 4BB. PGT-A results all abnormal.
    Oct '21 somewhat improved AMH (.51) and significantly improved FSH (8.9). Maybe it's all the pills I swallow.
    Dec -21, standard antagonist. 225menupur/225gonal-f/cetrotide/5000u trigger, AFC 5; 11 days of stims. retrieval yields 5, 4M, 2 reach day-6 blast (4AB & 4BB). 1 low-level mosaic (chr. 3 deletion), 1 complex abnormal.
    Feb '22 FET (low-level mosaic): CP.
    May '22 egg retrieval, lupron flare protocol. HGH priming for 1 month before stims; md lupron 20/20u daily; menopur 225, follistim 225, 10k trigger after 8 days of stims; AFC 10; 13 retrieved; 10 mature; 8 fertilized. All frozen at 2PN for later thaw, grow, and biopsy.
    July '22 egg retrieval same protocol: 9 days of stims; AFC 8; 10 retrieved, 8 mature, 4 fertilized and frozen.
    Sept '22 ER same protocol: AFC 10; 12 retrieved, 11 mature, 11 fertilized.
    From the 3 retrievals, 7 survived to day 5-6 blastocyst, from which I have 2 normal embryos!
    Jan 20, Fully medicated FET, baby aspirin, dexamethasone, acupuncture, and as much woo as I can stand (which isn't very much). BFN.
    July 23, Natural FET + baby aspirin. BFN.
