  • Hi all! I'm Cristina. My first post on this board was last August when I got my diagnosis of Stage 4 endometriosis. I comment on and off and hang out more on the IF board and the Baby Names board (I am obsessed with names!). I don't really comment unless I feel I have something unique to say or something to add. 

    I'm gearing up for my first IVF cycle, baseline is on Thursday. I'll probably hang around after I get a BFP (if that ever happens), because I would like to be helpful on the other side of IF. So many women here have been so amazing, I would like to return the favor.

  • Good call Bethany.  I was just wishing that they had some type of list of who posts and how frequently just so we could see everyone in one place.  Like a "member's list" where you will be added after certain criteria are met in the board.  IDK just a thought.  Maybe TB gods will see it.

    Anyway, I'm Carissa.  Info in siggy, I've been around since around September 2011 or so.

  • Hi all,

    Shoshie here... and I've been on here for a couple of months. TTC since Jan 2011. Dealing with MFI and we're going in for IUI No. 1 in June.

    Just finished my second chicken pox shot so now we're waiting two weeks so RE can submit us

    I live near L.A., so for any of you east coast night owls, I'll probably be on.

  • I'm here, but still just off and on for the time being. Enjoying my break immensely!! Still check in from time to time to keep up with my ladies! Pulga, so glad you are still around, your presence is beautiful to have around! <3

    Anyway, past the 3 year mark and I guess we are working towards 4 now...although technically we aren't really trying right now since we really have no chance of getting pg on our own. 

    Anyway, ::waves:: to all my ladies!! xo

    Thanks for doing this roll call.  Reading everyone's intros was helpful, and I am so sorry we are all going through this.  Hang in there!

  • Hi all! I've been on 3T since late last year when we hit the one year mark of TTC. We're a year and a half in and are gearing up for our first IUI this month.

    I did a cycle with Femara and had no response. My first cycle with Clomid gave me a great response, but that ended in a BFN, so we're hoping that the addition of the IUI with Clomid and the trigger shot will help our chances.

    I'm so thankful for this board and all of your support!

    ::waves hi to my 3T'rs!::

    Hi everyone, I'm still here. DH and I have been ttc since February 2011. I knew almost immediately that I wasn't ovulating, but of course had to go through all of the testing to confirm that nothing else was wrong - I also received a dx of PCOS "officially" in March 2012, although my previous RE mentioned that she had suspicions. Anyway, this will be our third medicated cycle (see info in siggy) and I think I've been on 3T last summer since I pretty much knew something was wrong immediately (i guess not getting a period for 5 months will do that to you!)

    Anyway, welcome to all the newbies (sorry you have to be here) and hi to all the regs. I agree with kellyrn, it seems like a lot of regs are between cycles so the board has been quiet....good luck with everyone's upcoming cycles!

  • Amanda here! a little late, but I don't get on in the evenings much... We are going on our 12th month TTC but I have annovulatory PCOS and I am around though I don't post much. We are currently only doing Femara and TI and this is our 3rd cycle. I really want to ask my Dr. if Metformin may benefit me, and am hoping to get some answers from my P4 blood test as the Dr is going to check my clotting. Hopefully, we can prevent another m/c.

  • Hey all! I'm kflynn81 aka Kate. I'm still new around here; I think I intro'ed in February 2012 originally but lurked since November/December 2011. I pop up here and there if I have something to add...not often but every once and awhile :)

    I have a unique situation for my dx. I have what's called panhypopituitarism. Basically that means that there is limited function of mostly all hormones that the pituitary generates. When I was a child I was on daily injections of growth hormone for approx. 5 years. They said I'd have only been 4'6 without them, so I'll take the whopping 5'2 I stand today :) 

    I can count the times AF arrived on her own on one hand with a few fingers left over, so you can imagine that I've known I'd be on a board like this someday for quite some time. I was on bcp to regulate AF until July 2009 when multiple clots revealed I had Factor V Leiden. Soooo...since July 2009, MH (then just dating) and I decided to "see what happened". Obviously nothing! At my GYN's instructions, I began temping and using OPK's in July 2009 so that I could go right to the RE when we wanted to.

    Since July 2009, there has been nothing but low low low temps (which turned out to be due to my Hypothyroid, thanks to the panhypopit, yay!) and no smiley face OPKs. We got the green light to see the RE in collaboration with a new Endocrinologist in October 2011 and so here we are today!

    We've done a round of Clomid with no response...an IUI with Menopur--BFN...and are on our second IUI sometime this week hopefully if today's exam doesn't show an overstimulation from the meds.

    Glad to be here, I heart this board :)  (sorry for the essay!)

    Me: 33, Endocrine issues & FVL       DH: 32, Nothing

    I'm here, but still just off and on for the time being. Enjoying my break immensely!! Still check in from time to time to keep up with my ladies! Pulga, so glad you are still around, your presence is beautiful to have around! <3

    Anyway, past the 3 year mark and I guess we are working towards 4 now...although technically we aren't really trying right now since we really have no chance of getting pg on our own. 

    Anyway, ::waves:: to all my ladies!! xo

    Aww thanks sweetie! That means a lot

    Hi all! I'm Jen and I've been lurking and occasionally posting since January 2012. We've been trying since February 2011 and I'm current in the 2ww after my first IUI (Clomid + Gonal-f + Ovidrel).  I plan on sticking around as long as it takes, but finger crossed that it won't be TOO long! 
    6/2014: IUI #3 - Menopur + trigger = BFP!!
    Betas: 9dpiui=15.3, 14dpiui=385, 16dpiui=1162

    Hi ladies!

     Sorry I'm a little late but I'm Caitlin. We've been TTC our first since January 2011 and NTNP for about 6 months before that.

     We were Dx with Unexplained IF in February 2012. Since then we have done one IUI cycle with Clomid 50mg + an Ovidrel trigger... resulting in a BFN. This left me feeling pretty crushed so we've decided to take a couple of months off to "regroup" before trying again.

     Best wishes to everyone here! :)


    It's twin girls!! Born on 11-2-14!
