Parenting after 35

The Upside of IVF!

Miller was conceived 2 years ago today.  I don't have to wonder what day I o'd or when the sperm decided to hitch a ride.  A team of nurses, one doctor, and some embryologists took all of the guesswork out of it.  It gives me a whole other day to celebrate!

  • LOL!!!  Happy conception anniversary! ;-)

    I'm actually pretty certain of the date Aaron was conceived (here you go, TMI, November 11, 2008) because I attacked DH the evening after my positive OPK reading. lol

    Aw... yay Miller!!!

    Mikey's conception was a bit more of a mystery as I had an undiagnosed kidney infection that caused a fever, hence charting being a nightmare. But according to the smiley face on an OPK he was conceived Thursday, October 23rd.

    Hehe... I remember meeting DH for dinner and feeling like death but still jumping DH when we got home because of the smiley face. 

  • Happy conception day!  :)

  • You have to admit that's a pretty good upside! No OPKs or any of that crap, it drove me insane for one year. Happy CA! I think LO was conceived around Dec 1, 2008 according to my chart but I should have marked the day bc I'm not sure.
