Hey Girls ~ hope you'll have me over here on the IFV board. I've been lurking here for a while and you all are super supportive of each other.  I've been around since the beginning of the year. 

My history is in my siggy, but I'll run through it.  Hubby & I got married in 2011.  About a year before then I was having severe abdominal pain, which resulted in cyst removal, appendectomy, untwisting my right ovary (and then subsequently removing it) all within 2 surgeries within 2 months.  We decided to start trying right away since I was 32 & he was 38.  I didn't want to wait too long before seeking help since I knew I was short an ovary.  We met with our RE in May 2012.  DH's morphology was low and has bounced around a bit.  Everything with me looked fine.  RE thought starting with a natural IUI cycle would be the best place to start.  3 tries of that were unsuccessful last fall.  I had a polyp removed last Nov.  We started our first IVF in Feb 2013 (antagonist protocol) and purchased the Attain refund program with 3 fresh/3 frozen cycles.  First IVF was unsuccessful with beta hell and no frozen embies.  RE thought egg quality might be the issue and suggested I take 600mg of COQ10 daily.  IVF #2 should have started in May with long lupron, but I was not suppressed enough.  I am in the 2WW with IVF #2.1.  We went back to antagonist with this cycle, but again have no frozen embies.  We transferred 2 8-cell embies on day 3.  Beta is 7/25. 

Thanks for reading!!  :)
