If you are thinking about asking to join this group?please read:

This is an Advanced TTTC group those who have been trying 3+ years and/or have multiple failed IUI?s /IVFs, etc. I just ask that everyone please use good judgment when asking to join...in other words, if you are still in the IUI stage or have been on this journey less than two years, this is probably not the group for you.

There is no doubt that this whole TTTC process is painful, but I also do believe that there is a very special kind of support that this specific group can offer to each other, and it is intended as a "safe haven" for those of us who are in that bottom 1% of the bottom 1%.

Thank you!

It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

Re: Advanced TTTC check-in

  • Update:  Beta is tomorrow, but I don't think I'm going....as my body as shown me yet again, that IUI's just don't work for us.  I am not sure if I want to jump right back into the game again or take some time off....I still have a few days to think about it.

  • Loading the player...
  • GL to all the ladies with appts coming up!

    I could use any "get to cycle in Feb" vibes you might have.  DH is travelling a lot this spring and if I start BCP in Feb he might not be around for ER/ET (so we would postpone the cycle to March and I'd rather get going!).

     

    QOTD:  I have a Joey Lawrence CD (and I still have it... it's too much of a gem to give away).  That makes me think I should get it out again and have a mini dance party this week while DH is gone Wink

  • I have a backstreet boys cd. Nothing new to report had a crappy morning. Went to my appt and the girl never put me in the computer. So have to go back tomorrow for a consult appt since I haven't been in 6 months and looks like my fet will be pushed back. Feeling dowb and cried all morning. I feel like we will never have our take home baby. I just ran to Starbucks before work and the barista was complaining about her pregnancy and two friends sitting at the table were also talking about one of them being pregnant. Here is to hoping I make it through the work day.

    Update: Tonight's my last night of Femara and I will likely be triggering sometime this weekend if things go as they have these past couple cycles.

    QOTD:  Probably more than a few that people would consider embarrassing or bad... Spice Girls, Bob Guiney (Bob from The Bachelor, yeah...), Avril Lavigne, Ashley Simpson (Jessica Simpson's sister).

  • Good luck PoeticJustice, cbubbles, scooterq, tripleb, koyn, ginger, wewannababy and butterfly!!!  Pulling for you guys!

    My update - I'm starting stims today!  I go in for monitoring on Thurs to see how things are progressing

    As for my most embarrassing CD - Would definately have to be my new kids on the block tape cassette!  It's long gone!

  • GL all!

    Update: nothing new.  Today is CD8; my cycles are usually 27 days.  When AF comes to town I'll most likely be starting BCPs to prep for IVF.

    QOTD: NKOTB when I was in middle school.  I even had a NKOTB themed birthday party !  I don't have it anymore though.

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Update: Surprise BFP on 1/18 1st beta: 294

    QOTD: I had Milli Vanilli when I was in elementary school.  No I do not have that album anymore.  Once it came out that they were fake I cut the tape with scissors.

  • Update: I'm going to test Wednesday.  It will only be 10dpiui but I'm not feeling confident about this cycle and I'm anxious to call the RE and plan IVF next cycle. 

    QOTD: I have some the pop group/boy bands others have mentioned.  Mostly though I am ashamed of my hard rock phase.  I can't stand to listen to that anymore and most of the CDs I've thrown out.

  • Update: ER was this morning. We got 10 eggs which I'm thrilled over! Not thrilled over this hoffific pain that I did not have after the first retrieval! I am painfully uncool in terms of music and typically run 8-10 years behind what is currently popular so my whole music collection is embarrassing! My most recent embarrassing purchase off of iTunes was shaggys "it wasn't me" :(

    Update: I'm triggering tonight at 10:30.  ER will Wednesday at 9:30am.

    QOTD:  Tiffany, Amy Grant, NKOTB, Spice Girls, and there are probably others I'm forgetting.  I don't have any of them anymore.

  • Hi Ladies!

    Just wanted to introduce myself to the group (although I know a lot of you ladies already). :)

    I'm in the 2ww for IVF#1, my first beta will be next Tuesday, 2/1. So far the PIO is killing me, having a hard time functioning with all the pain and swelling at the injection site. :(

    Hmmmm QOTD: I think Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby soundtrack would probably be the worst for me! Embarrassed

  • Good luck PoeticJustice, Cbubbles, Koyn, Ginger71, Wewannababy and Butterfly843.

    Update: Suppression check today was uneventful.  RE (not my own) couldn't locate my left ovary on the Ultrasound.  Huh?  Not feeling to confident about his skills.  Starts stims on 1/31.
