So yesterday I didn't see anything come up that a December group has gotten started sooooooooooooooo, let's get one started!!  It might be a little early but I know there are at least a few of us who are gearing up!

 Who's looking at a December cycle right now?

What do you think our "name" should be?  What's sticking with me right now is December snowflakes but please send your ideas!

Gooooooooooooooooooooo December!!! :)

    I'm pretty sure ill be joining you in dec for my 5th IVF... Awful, I know. Although I don't have any suggestions yet, I know there was a snowflake group last year. It's a cute theme, but we can come up with something new

    Me (32) DOR, elevated NK Cells/ 2 copies of MTHFR mutation/ MH (35) azoo/high DFI   (TTC#1 since 2009)

    IVFs#1-4: (4/10-2/12) all BFN

    Surprise Bfp (9/11) - c/p

    DS IUI#1-2 (9/12, 10/12) - BFN

    DS IVF: (11/12) - BFN

    DE/DS IVF#1: (10/13) - 2 day 3 embies transferred-BFFN

    FET of 2 day 6 blasts: (12/13) - c/p

    DE/DS IVF #2: (4/14) - 1 day 5 blast transferred...BFFN...again.

    FET 5/14: 1 day 5 hatching blast transferred...another BFFN

    Repeat SHG 6/14-normal / Endometrial Receptivity Array biopsy 7/14-Receptive Uterus

    New RE, additional testing reveals elevated NK Cells

    FET of 1 day 5 blast (RE recommends transferring 1 due to elevated NK cells) with lovenox, steroids & intralipids in October

    I think I will be in December, too. I'm not positive, though, I wanna check my calendar and see how the ER/ET/beta dates stack up.

    Cute ideas but I think we need something more non-denominational.  I'm Jewish, for instance, so anything to do with Christmas is somewhat lost on me :)

    I'll start my protocal in late November with an early Dec ER. WooHoo.

    I took a few of the ideas and made badges. My feelings won't be hurt if you don't like them but I thought I would get that ball rolling. If majority rules on the snowflakes I (or someone else-doesn't matter to me) can throw one together. That one's been done a few times as far as I've seen in recent times.

    Hooray for December!

    Would love to join you- I'm scheduled for ER sometime around December 12th!

    ETA: Something with lights would make for a cute badge. Or what about Holly Jolly?

    What about taking it totally away from holiday type things and do something that only applies to this year??  Something like Apocalypse ladies or, I don't know, Zombie Apocalypse Preparedness Team? ;)  Survivalists?  Apocalypse Re-populators?   Doomsday Deniers?  End of the World something or others.  LOL... I don't know.  Maybe someone else who is more creative can come up with something :)
