I had 2 separate newly babied friends ask me where the best apple orchard/patch was.
It sucks hard cider.
At times like these, I think we should all have a glass! Wasn't there someone around here with a really amazing recipe for a stiff drink that involved hot caramel spiced cider and some liqueur?
(((hugs))) I hate FB.
Severe MFI. Me: supposedly all clear but eggs showed vacuoles.
IVF #1 January 2012, ER Jan 14th: 34R, 27M, 23F. Day 3: 18 embies still strong. Day 5: zero "good," one "fair," the rest "poor." Transferred 3. None made it to blast or to freeze. Jan 28: BFN.
Lucky IVF #2: Transferred two beautiful day three embies on St. Patrick's Day. BFP on HPT 7dp3dt. Beta 1 (14dpER)=106; Beta 2 (16dpER)=140; Beta 3 (19dpER)=264! First u/s 4.17.

It's going well, but I'm pretty excited for it to be over, actually. Between all of the IF appointments, farmwork, and my part-time job in town I can't wait for winter when we have less work and more free time! I'm ready to spend a lot of time on the couch watching movies and eating all of the yummy things we've canned this season. Oh... and start IVF, of course!
