in TTC after 35
Today would have been my sweet Athena Jane's 1st birthday 
For those who don't know, my little girl died last August just short of 3 months old. She underwent 2 open heart surgeries and could not overcome the 2nd surgery and we had to make the heart wrenching decision to pull her life support.
She is celebrating her birthday with the angels....dance, lil Diva, dance!

ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
