it will be a year this fall. i posted here and there before the one year mark, but i didn't become a "regular" until about Nov. 2008 when it had been a year of officially TTC.
Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation. Because we're fancy like that.
I've been posting off and on in very small amounts since the board began and a bit more actively for about a month since we've finally made a plan.
TTC since 05
Dh diagnosed with azoospermia. Unsuccessful reconstructive surgery in 07-08.
IVF w/ ICSI #1: BFP! 1 strong heartbeat and 1 lost twin @ 2nd U/S...bittersweet
not very long, about a 2 weeks. I JUST started seeing an RE and thought this would be a good board for help and support. In reading the posts before I posted it seemed that way and so far it has been helpful.
my first OP was yesterday. I've been lurking on and off for months though
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
I started posting with another name (had to change it) since January of 2008 after we went and met with an RE.

I was lurking on BOTB from Fall of 2006 and then found this board in March 2007 and lurked some more. Started posting when we hit 1 year TTC(9/07) under old knot name and then switched to theworms after our NOA dx b/c I didn't want anyone to potentially know me and know what we were going through unless we told them.

Since the very beginning.. since it was a secret board.
I'm right there with you... been here since the very beginning & remember the day that the secret board was established on the nest. My job prevents me from posting very often, but I've been here the whole time with an exception for when we had to take a break when they found out I had a spinal tumor and I had to have surgery.

I was a lurker for a good 3 months before I introduced myself back in March/April 09, then I didn't have much time to post for the majority of the time up until about maybe 2 weeks ago.
Since about May of this year when I started my first IVF cycle I didn't know that the bump existed until I saw the link on Bustedbabymakers blog. I wish I would have found y'all a lot sooner!
Beautiful Miracle Baby lost at 21 weeks due to pre-term labor and incompetent cervix. FET#1 BFN, FET#2 BFP, early loss. FET#3 BFN. IVF#2 BFFN. FET #4 BFP after removing bilateral hydrosalpinx and 3 months of lupron depot. Sticky Bun is here!!
I have lurked for a couple years, but I started posting a bit more regularly last summer. I go in spurts where I post a lot and then I post nothing at all for awhile. Either way, I've been around. It doesn't appear that I'm getting evicted anytime soon.

I joined the nest/bump to be on TTTC in July 2007. I lurked mostly of the time, but have posted more in the last year. I try to check in every day and reply to some posts if I can.
Re: Just curious..how long have you been posting on TTTC?
Because we're fancy like that.
I have been lurking for about a year and started posting randomly since I was dx.
