I am so stoked. We just finished up IVF again and we're pregnant. It'll be about 3 weeks probably before we know if it's a single or a twin pregnancy but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we're on our way to 4 under 4! It'll be super crazy for a a couple years but that's A Ok with us

Re: AW: We're expecting again!
Congrats!! How was it having your second? DH and I are considering trying but nervous how it will be with 2 under 2.
No doubt the first few months are tough but now that DS is crawling everything is more fun. Also, I believe in sleep training so having everyone sleeping all night makes everything that much easier and nicer :-)

Diana..question for you...
I am not sure what fertility issues you have but I am more asking for advice for myslf as well. I was told by shady grove that it was possible my body would fix itself after having my first. In your experience did you try having a baby or go straight back to a specialist for this time around? I am not sure to try or just go straight back to Shady Grove becuase we want to get pregnant sooner rather then later. Thanks!!!!

Congrats!!!
Twins are hard!! I was on bedrest for 6 weeks, they came @ 36 weeks and wouldn't latch so I ended up having to EP! But, obviously we're madly in love with them...
Good luck!

Our issue appeared to be MFI. It's the only thing that could be found and after 7 failed IUIs and years of trying we moved on. Thing is we did IVF for DD when I was 34; I had her at 35. For DS I was 37. I am 38 now and will be 39 when this baby arrives so we just didn't feel there was time to try 'waiting for a miracle' that we didn't think would come. Also, we are VERY fortunate and DHs job is with a company headquartered in MD. MD has the best state mandate for IF coverage in the country that I know of. Our insurance reads exactly as the mandate: 100k cap, with 3 attempts per live birth and a total of 3 live births. It's amazing to not have to stress over all that. Each of our IVF w/ ICSI cost over 18k including the meds.
