IVF #2.2 w ICSI in Dec 2010 = BFN
Met with new RE in new city on 1/31/11.
IVF #3 w ICSI in April 2011. HPT on 5/9 = BFP! Beta #1 on 5/10 (10dp5dt) = 99.4. Beta #2 on 5/12 = 284. First u/s on 5/26. = Fraternal TWINS!
Twin boys born & lost on 8/16/11 at 18w1d due to PPROM & preterm labor.
IVF #4.1 in Jan 2012 converted to IUI on 1/7/12 = BFN
IVF #4.2 w ICSI in Feb 2012. Lupron on 2/10. Stims on 2/18. ER on 2/29- 7R,6F
ET scheduled for 3/5/12- nothing to transfer
Dh seeing new MFI uro & Dh starting meds- June 2012.
IVF #5 in Dec 2012 = BFFN.
IVF #6 planned for Spring 2013. Praying for our take home baby/ies.
**P/SAIF and P/SAL always welcome!**
1. Ok. Getting anxious to start my next IVF cycle in a few weeks.
2. Highlight- meeting some nice ladies at a local GTG. Lowlight- realizing we need to be better about budgeting since I'm currently a SAHW.
3. I'm planning a trip to Marsh for today during triple coupon days... I'm hoping it isn't too insane. DH and I are planning to meet up with a friend of his for dinner at some point this weekend. Otherwise, no real plans.
4. I get Real Simple which I chose to get and enjoy. We also had tons of airline points that were going to expire and you could get magazine subscriptions, so I figured that was better than letting the points go to waste, so I get Cosmo, Glamour, and Self... I can never seem to keep up on reading any of these 3.

1. How are you feeling? - 1 day overdue and ready to have this baby already!
2. Highlight / lowlight of your week? - Highlight - trying to enjoy the last little bit of being just the two of us. Lowlight - I'm kind of bummed that I haven't had one single contraction yet.
3. Weekend plans? - Going out to dinner with an old neighbor (unless baby decides to make his/her grand entrance before then)4. Do you subscribe to any magazines? Which ones? Do you actually read them? - We get Consumer Reports and Newsweek and always read them during breakfast.
1. Not feeling too bad. Connor is such a terrible sleeper - we are finally having to let him CIO if he gets up a second time during the night and I feel bad about that, but the boy needs to learn to sleep. I hope this stage will pass soon.
2. HIghlight: Had a couple of really great meetings re: my career. There is a light at the end of my residency tunnel!
Lowlight: Had to have a medical exam for disability insurance. And, I didn't make our fantasy football playoffs due to injuries. Petty things, I know!
3. The kids' Christmas program is this afternoon - should be hilarious. My mom is coming up and we're going to dinner. Baby shower for a friend down in Columbus tomorrow. Sunday will be relaxing and catching up on work stuff.
4. I get Parents, Real Simple, and Sports Illustrated. I am lucky to stay about 4 months behind. I was glad to see this question because it made me feel less guilty
1. how are you feeling? Depends on the day. More good than bad the past week or so
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight- DH felt the baby kick last night. Lowlight- sick all day and night Wednesday
3. weekend plans? Tonight- nothing Tomorrow- Holiday party Sunday- church, brunch and taking DD to see Santa (hopefully)
4. do you subscribe to any magazines? which ones? do you actually read them? I subscribed to Parents and Parenting and I try and read them within the month or two that I got them. I actually got great deals on them and get them just for the Gymboree Coupons. Family members have given me for gifts a couple of cooking magazine that usually go straight into the trash, Glamour I glance through, Womens World- really Grandma? Goes straight to the trash. There are more but thats all that I can think of right now.

1. Like I was hit by a bus. I got a stomach bug from DD and spent most of last night throwing up. And now it looks like DH is getting it, too. Suuuuuuck.
1. Feeling pretty good almost 28 weeks, wish sleeping were more restful. 2. Highlight: had a dr's Appt, u/s, and glucola this morning. Baby is in the 66th percentile size wise, so we are happy about that! The placenta previa issue I had has fixed itself! Yay! That was great news! Lowlight: just not sleeping well, nothing too major. 3. Weekend plans: I am not really sure... Probably nothing! My vacation time from work started today so I'm free as a bird . 4. I uses to subscribe to Marie Clair and read it faithfully, but that expense got cut a while ago, haha! Now I just read all the headlines at the stores very informative
1. how are you feeling? Exhausted! I stayed after to help at work tonight because things were so crazy, but standing over 10 hours straight is too much for me right now!
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight- Having our first doctor appointment & reaching 6 weeks! Lowlight- My gestational sac is measuring exactly on, but there was only a yolk sac, not a fetal pole. My doctor assured me it was still early and that was fine...but I'm still worried. We go back the 19th for another ultrasound.
3. weekend plans? I work this weekend. I plan to take it easy in the evenings.
4. do you subscribe to any magazines? which ones? do you actually read them? I don't subscribe to anything.
