Results are in, and my beta was zero. I have pancreatitis and I'm not pregnant. My husband and I have tried 6 times to get pregnant. It worked 4 times but i lost the baby every single f#*}%~ time. Science is apparently really crappy at knocking me up. I'll be taking a break from the bump for a while. Having a hard time dealing with things. I don't get it. I'm so angry and sad and all I want is pancakes and wine... But I can't even eat until my pancreas gets better (and I'm forbidden to have alcohol for the rest of my life thanks to that freakin organ). So I guess I'll be sticking with Ensure Clear. DH got me a new flavor, it's Peach. Thanks ladies for hearing me out today and every other day. Hugs to everyone here. We deserve better.
BFP #1 - chemical pregnancy, natural miscarriage at 7 weeks on 2/11/12
BFP #2 - u/s at 8 weeks showed a tiny fetal pole measuring at 6 weeks, heart rate slow at 94bpm. Natural miscarriage a few days later on 4/15/12
August 2012- Diagnosed with pancreatic divisum, September - ERCP w/stent placement. Fingers crossed this was the issue! Doc gave the go-ahead to start trying again.
BFP #3 - Chemical pregnancy ending a few days after Thanksgiving 2012. Clearly my pancreas was not the issue. Doc told us to try one more time.
BFP #4 - Chemical pregnancy ending in January 2013. Now I'm pissed.
February- meeting with RE. Test results show I have a low egg reserve and DH has severely messed up sperm. Docs are quite confused as to how we're getting pregnant to begin with. Let the IVF games begin!!
April - stim time!! 7R, 6F via ICSI, 5 made it to day 5, 3 look "good enough" to be sent for PGS testing. We are now the proud owners? Parents? Of 2 healthy frozen embryos.
June - ugh. Lupron. So much Lupron. And Aygestin, and Estrogen, and Progesterone suppositories. Things are going in to my body every way possible!
July 25- scheduled for our first FET. Aaand huge fail. All of the estrogen gave my pancreas a good old fashioned hissy fit. Long story short, moving on to gestational carrier.

Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap. As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God,the Maker of all things. <?xml:namespace prefix = o />
