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. If you are interested in joining please PM me.
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!

Update: Still in Beta Hell. I put a call into my nurse to request an u/s but I'm still waiting to hear back from her. I had some pretty heavy spotting yesterday but it has tapered a bit today.
QOTD: I have been following March Madness, but I didn't do any brackets. I love seeing an underdog do well. Truthfully, I would prefer to see a Final of Butler versus VCU, but since they're paired in the semi-final game, it can only be one of them. I'm guessing it will be a final of Butler vs. UConn.
Good l uck to scooterq, 07may07, gidge, ked, bella
Congrats to bella
Hugs to 07may07, kissyfacekate
Update: none
QOTD: Of course I do! Although now I'm really ready for baseball because of the great weather we've been having! My bracket is totally busted..and I was ok with it as long as Carolina was still in it...
...I really don't care who wins now, I just hope the games are good.
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
I'm new to the group- I'm mainly a lurker, but feel really like I belong more on the infertility page than the TTCAL, etc. pages. Everyone seems very supportive and friendly, so I think I'll hang out here.
You can read most about me in my siggy, but I've been married for almost 11 years now and we've been TTC for the entire time. I've been there, done that with clomid, injectibles, IUI's and IVF's. An IVF was successful and I made it to 32 weeks before developing severe pre-eclampsia and losing the baby last April. We attempted another IVF last October, retrieved 8 eggs but none of them fertilized.
This summer we're planning another (and probably last) IVF cycle- we're OOP for everything and we simply cannot afford anything after this if it doesn't work. I'm throwing everything at the wall this go around- have been doing yoga for a year, started acupuncture a couple months ago and I'm gluten free now for 4 whole days. Needless to say- I can't say I'm a little scared, it's more like A LOT. Not just the IVF working, but the re-occurance of pre-e in a second pregnancy and the potential for another failure... That's enough Debbie Downer for now.
Sorry for the book, but now you're caught up!
My bracket was busted when Duke lost, but then KU lost too- so I'm completely out! Better luck next year...

I heard from the Dr yesterday and we only had 1 embryo waiting for us - so who knows what will happen tomorrow.
QOTD: I don't really follow at all. The last time I even put together a bracket, the group offered to give me my money back because my picks were so bad
WELCOME Cheryl !
GOOD LUCK + PPV scooter, 07may07, ked, bella !!
CONGRATULATIONS bella !!

QOTD In the dark ...
UPDATE I had my lap Monday: stage I endo, but not bad. We will proceed with a prep cycle (coculture and EP) and stim with the cycle following that one. SO HAPPY !!!
