Hello everyone!!
I post on the IF board and just got my BFP! EDD 4/4/12. I am so excited to be here and hope I can stay <: My first Beta was today and it was 508 at 13dp3dt. We put 2 embies back (1st DE IVF) <: Second Beta on Monday and first us scheduled for August 9!
My history even though I've only been married 10 months is extensive and even though I haven't been on the IF board for more than 6 months. Sorta not preventing for the last 10 years! I had Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma at 23 and ended up needing a autologous bone marrow transplant which unfortunately sent me into premature ovarian failure at 24. Didn't have time to freeze eggs/embryos at the time because doctor said it was me or the eggs. So I'm now 8 years cured <: and found out with the help of Donor eggs I could hopefully get pregnant and carry to term.
I work as a Cord Blood Donation Specialist and know a lot about cord blood banking if anyone ever has any questions. I collect only from mom's who donate and actually am in the room during c-sections and vaginal deliveries. I do the collection from the placenta and cord and then it is cryo-preserved and will hopefully help a patient with leukemia, lymphoma, or other blood disease get their cure.
I have a sweet husband and crazy 2 year old black lab Sam <:
Nice to meet you all!!
