Infertility

Re-intro

I posted on here a bit over the summer, but took a step back after 2 early losses.  Long story short - I'm Carolee.  DH and I started TTC in 12/08.  After 2 clomid cycles, I got a BFP in 12/09.  We were devastated when our son's heart stopped at 37 weeks.  We started TTC again in 11/10 and began seeing an RE in 2/11.  We have since done 4 clomid IUIs and have had 2 more early losses.  DH has been diagnosed with MFI (1-2% normal morph) and I have MTHFR and lupus anticoagulant.  We are doing our first IVF this month (I'm starting lupron on 11/16).  I'm looking forward to becoming an active poster here.
Mom to Eliott Alexander, born sleeping at 37 weeks on 8/13/10. Most of us only dream of angels - I held one in my arms.
