I'm on a roll....

...and I hope it continues! Yesterday I gave a talk on my research at conference and totally rocked it. I got home late, but was totally surprised to find that MH had cleaned the house (he's not really the cleaning type) and left flowers and a sweet note on the table for me :-)

If that wasn't awesome enough of a day I decided to check on work emails before bed and got an email from my boss with the subject line "see attached" that was sent to me and our HR manager. I opened the attachment to find a letter outlining what an awesome job I've been doing since I took over direction of our program and informing me that I would be receiving a bonus!

So I'm hoping this streak continues because today is our second FET. We changed the protocol a little this time (added a trigger, intralipids and more blood thinners). Plus I have refused to take down our tree yet simply because I want the pickle ornament to stay up until after we do this transfer :-)

I would appreciate any good prayers/thoughts/vibes today!!!! 

IUI #1 (50 mg clomid and ovidrel) - BFN
IUI #2 (100 mg clomid and HCG trigger) - BFN
IUI #3 (Gonal-f and HCG trigger) - BFN
IVF #1 - 21 retrieved, 20 mature, 15 fertilized (ICSI), 2 d5 blasts transferred, 8 frozen - c/p
FET #1 - BFFN
FET #2 - BFN? c/p? Either way no baby
FET #3 - No shock...BFN
FET #4 - BFN :-(

    Ha!  We took ours down but I can't put the pickles away.  We just decided to do an IUI this cycle after thinking we weren't going to -- it'll be next week -- and I'm thinking about hanging the pickles on a big jade plant we have.  Cause you can never have too much fertility luck!

    Anyway, congrats on the successes and good luck this cycle!
