If you'll have me.
For those who don't know my history, we got a surprise BFP in January of this year (after our RE told us we had almost no chance of conceiving on our own because of my fibroids and DOR) and then we lost our little boy in May when his heart stopped for unknown reasons (possibly due to a hypercoiled cord). It took 4 days of labor before he was finally born. We were TTA for a while awaiting fibroid surgery. I intro'd on the main board in June (I think). 2 surgeries and 3 cycles of TTA and the fibroids were finally all gone and we were ready to try again.
Since then we've been doing mostly medicated cycles, one with IUI, all BFFNs. Currently we're waiting to meet with our RE and decide whether to puruse IVF with my own eggs or using donor eggs. We're also looking into adoption.
So here we are at the end of possibly the worst year of lives, between losing our baby boy, my Aunt dying of cancer and DH's grandpa dying too. And I'm STILL not pregnant yet.
For those who don't know me, I'm definitely a PIP whore, so I won't disappoint there.
Andy Samberg is my boyfriend but he doesn't know it.
I've made a few of my own PIPs of him, this is my fav from when he was on Portlandia (my favorite show, besides of course Downton)
This one serves no purpose except it cracks me the hell up everytime I see it
My all-time favorite man-candy, Josh Beech
And of course, there has to be a cat PIP
So that's me in a nutshell. I hate that we all have to be here, but I hope I can offer some support on this side too!
