Hello! I've been lurking for a bit and getting a feel for this group. I've read the rules and think I can be a good girl. I have no plans to just run through here. My signature says it all but I usually post from my phone and can't see any signatures. Still can't figure out how to add pictures, even with the directions, and I'm considered the tech guru at work! Eyes roll. I'll keep working on it, but for now I'm thinking my long history will help me be recognizable.
Anywho, after almost 3 years of TTC and 3 ivf's in the past 6 months alone, we finally had our BFP in early November but learned of the miscarriage the day after Christmas, I was supposed to be 8w6d. My edd was Aug 1st. We are switching re's and giving my body a medical break. We are trying on our own a bit but only since I can't give up a few months this just might happen. Ovulation and periods are textbook normal so I even know what day to pee on a stick to get a positive and when I won't. Not sure how much of that will change now. I think I have a progesterone issue, among a few other things here and there that have made this nearly impossible for us but I just can't give up on this yet. Our last Ivf proved that the eggs fertilized naturally, so that was a relief but with my age and meds I should have had more retrieved. I've been through all kinds of tests and hope a new RE can give us some answers. I feel my current RE can not because he is at fault for some of the issues this last round, that is its own chapter. I'm kinda a posting wh0re. I'm on IF forum for all the treatments, miscarriage board but it is getting difficult to read all the sad stories coming in daily and starting to make me feel like everyone who gets pregnant loses the baby! I never made it over to the aug board but was on PAIF a short period of time. I look forward to chatting more and responding to posts and being part of a huge support system. I hope I don't get to know many of you here but if you are here for awhile or have been, hello and I will be too!!

Hello from a fellow Baster! I am so sorry for your loss and all you've been through. I also had an IVF BFP in November and m/c in December. I hope your new RE does the trick.

Ball.and.chain!!!! Hate seeing you here and was so sad about your loss! If I remember correctly, you were the first BFP for November, I was so excited for you, and slightly jealous, and was so heartbroken when you became a turkey angel!!! My loss was after the final post so I was left as a BFP. Blah! Glad to see a familiar face over here, and sadly sure there are more from the few forums I'm on.

Yup. After feeling like the BFN girl on the LGBT Parenting board, I was so proud to be the first Baster BFP. How depressing.
There's an IF check in here at the end of the week. You should join!
What are your next steps, or are you waiting to work things out with the new RE? I am hoping to do a FET in March.

Thanks ball and chain, I will check in with IF. No current plans other than just trying on our own for the time. We don't have any frozen and want to meet with a new RE to find out if we should try iui a few more times with what we now know or just save up money for another Ivf. I hate waiting but I'm hoping we can do a fresh cycle this coming summer but might need to wait until the end of the year. I hope you have better luck with your FET cycle!!!!!!
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!!
