I was really hoping I'd be pregnant way before now. Tomorrow I could possibly be triggering for our first IVF cycle. Doc says we have 13 follicles (that they can see) & thinks we should get 8 eggs from them. I am beyond nervous thinking this is not going to work. I can't begin to tell you how crappy I will feel paying on a personal loan every month for the next 3 years if we don't get pregnant. I just keep thinking about that beta phone call from the nurse where they tell you you're pregnant or not. I don't know what I'll do if I get the "sorry, not pregnant". Gah! It's horrible just thinking about it.

Best of luck!!!! Two gals on my local board underwent IVF -- egg retrieval the same day by the same dr (go figure). One retrieved 11, one 8 but guess what? Both are expecting twins now. Hopefully your fate is just as happy!!!
And happy birthday!! Hope this year brings you everything you wish for!!
