Newbie, kinda, am I in the right place?

carrera317 · October 2013

Hi ladies,

I was wondering if I am in the right place. It's hard to fit in when you've had one (via IVF) and are really struggling to have another. I am hoping you'll have me if I am on the right board. If I am in the right place I would love to be here for you for support and encouragement on our family journeys.

I've been feeling like I need a little extra help lately and remember a comfort on the boards years ago when I was struggling. I've been on and off the IF boards for years (mostly as a lurker, but am trying to out myself). I feel like I have learned so much in the world of IVF/FET and it's still growing. I would love to be able to share experiences.

I am hoping that my siggy has saved properly to tell the basics of our journey.

Smiles,

Meg

Can someone help me with my siggy please?! What am I doing wrong? It won't update. Thanks!

<center>Me = 35 PCOS and 1 tube removed for a cyst and adhesions

DH = 34 low morph

April '09 IVF (antagonist protocol) = 5R5M, none fertilized, cancelled at ET

May/June '09 IVF/ICSI = 6R6M6F, 2ET on 6.18.09, 1 frostie, Beta on

6.30.09 = 51 OMG!! Beta #2 = 167 Beta #3 = 2630!!!!! An uneventful pregnancy.

3.16.10 a healthy beautiful miracle boy born via unscheduled c-section

Now on the quest for another so our dear son is not alone.

May/June '12 IVF/ICSI (antagonist protocol) =10R9M9F, 1ET = BFN, 2 frosties

Aug '12 FET, 1ET= beta hell, 2 rounds of methotrexate, 4 months later Hcg < 2

Jan/Feb '13 IVF/ICSI (long lupron protocol) = 18R18M18F, 1ET = BFN, 10 frosties

Apr '13 FET w 2ET (one from '09 and one newer one) = (got strep throat!) BFN

June '13 FET w 2ET = 1 baby boy lost at 10w due to monosomy 21

Karyotyping of me and DH in the works now to check for a balance translocation.

Beginning to feel defeated. My strength is fading. Praying for some hope.</center>

Welcome! We got pregnant with our DSs right around the same time. I am so sorry that you are struggling to TTC #2. IF just blows. We were cancelled twice and delayed for months for various reasons, but we finally got to a FET and now have two beautiful DDs. Hang in there hon. (((((Hugs)))))
