Trouble TTC

For those who know me

I just wanted to jump in and say hello.  It has been awhile since I have been on although I have been lurking here and there.  I am so happy for all the BFPs!  I have been in hiding because I was having trouble handling everything and thought a break was in order.

 I am still praying for all of you and think of you often.  I will remain a lurker for now. My life has been so insane.  A lot of stuff going on but it is keeping my mind from thinking about not being pregnant yet.  (or ever).

 Update on me.  I am in the middle of and FET cycle.  Hopefully the transfer will be next week but we are running into a few problems.  Please keep your fingers crossed for me.

 Anyways, I just wanted to say hi.  Miss you all.  ((Big hugs)) to you!

    Hey hon.  Sorry I have been out of touch.  It has been a tough time for me.  Been thinking of you.  How is everything going? 

    No worries, hon.  You have to take care of yourself.  I can't imagine how you felt after IVF #3 since each BFN has been more difficult.  I'm praying I don't find out.  I really hope this FET is it for you.  I've seen so many women get their BFPs through FETs.

    I will be doing IVF #3 in the May/June cycle (stim in May with ET/ER in June).  I was supposed to do it this month but my cycle didn't work out.  So, they had me start estrace last week and with my new clotting disorders combined with my old ones, they made me start lovenox at the same time.  I think this is going to be a long IVF cycle.  40+ days of injections before starting lupron!

    Did you see that magnolia_femme finally got her BFP with IVF #3?  She didn't have  much hope because her doctor told her her embies were bad.
