  MJ14323:

  ...deciding to take a break from "trying" actually means having sex.

  This is definitely true in our household! Ha!

  ...Sticking needles in yourself and taking vitamins/meds several times a day is commonplace.

  My TTC Journey:
  Dx: Hypothalamic amenorrhea / mild PCOS (Pretty much a hormone/ovulatory disorder)
  Progesterone to induce period w/ the goal of Clomid - never got period (September 2011). Referred to RE.
  Femera - never responded to the meds (December 2011)
  Clomid with TI - BFN (February 2012)
  Injectables (Menopur) - hyperstimulated/canceled (March 2012)
  Injectables #2 (Menopur) with TI- BFN (May 2012)
  IVF - OHSS (transfer canceled), but 11 frozen! (June 1012)
  FET - 1 transferred on 8/09/12. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): 350.3; Beta#2: 365; Beta#3: 157. Biochemical pregnancy.
  FET # 2 - 1 transferred on 11/01/12. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): 337; Beta#2: 769. BFP!!! 1st ultrasound 11/28/12 showed heartbeat, but measuring 5 days behind. 2nd ultrasound 12/05/12 - miscarriage.
  FET # 3 - 1 transferred on 1/24/13. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): BFN.
  FET # 4 - 2 transferred on 3/21/13.  Bet #1 (11dp5dt): 660; Beta#2: 1,300.  Miscarried at home @ 6 weeks.

  FET # 5 - 2 transferred on 7/12/13.  Beta #1 (10dp6dt): BFN.
  Attempted an IUI in late August 2013, but didn't respond well.
  IVF #2 with PGS - Stims started 10/28 with retrieval on 11/11.  Of 14 mature eggs, 10 fertilized, 4 made it to Day 5 & 1 made it to Day 6. We did PGS on the Day 5 embryos, and 3 of 4 were normal. Had ET on 11/17. Beta #1 (8dp6dt): 203. Beta #2 (10dp6dt): 618. We since had two ultrasounds & on 12/19, our RE released us to the OB.  On 1/02/14, we had our first ultrasound with the OB where we heard the heartbeat.  We are so thankful for the blessing & crossing every finger & toe for a healthy & successful pregnancy.
