Well like a typical woman I changed my mind AGAIN. I am going to try these last two myself and then if it doesn't work then ill do another fresh and use a surrogate. Maybe third times the charm. DH is much happier with this decision and honestly so am I. We are using the same meds as we did with my fresh that got me my best lining of a 7 and did get pregnant. Sadly it ended in c/p but maybe this time it will stick for good. Had my baseline today and all is good. Start menopur and bravelle tonight. Potential transfer of 6/11, that's DH birthday. Thanks for putting up with me ladies. I would be a hot mess without y'all. Hope everyone has a great holiday!!
