Secondary IF

****2IF WEEKLY UPDATE****

Please provide a brief history and current cycle status.

QOTW: Describe an annoying coworker.

Me, DS after 4 years MFI. We are currently taking a break. We were advised to wait a cycle and I think we're going to if nothing else, then for mental health.

QOTW
Every morning we had this one lady who would come in late, log into her computer and then come back to my cubicle area to chit chat FOREVER. I'm not a morning person, I'm not a Chatty Cathy and it was really taking a stab in production (I was busy!) so I eventually got to work earlier and made sure I had headphones in by the time she rolled in. Then, even when she was at her own desk she would still talk outloud and almost give a verbal play-by-play of what she was doing like "I gotta call so and so" or "I fax such and such". Eventually I began to listen to audio books ALL day.

  • We've just moved on to cycle #17 and round two of Clomid increasing it to 100 mg. I'm on CD4.

    QOTW: I don't work. Well, I do watch my 2 year old niece some but I don't have any coworkers so I don't have anyone to annoy me except my family, hehe!

  • DD naturally conceived on first try. Now in Cycle 13 of TTC #2, 5th round of clomid 100 mg
    I haven't worked in over 4 years, but I used to hate when a certain coworker called me "Kimmy". I hate that nickname. And she continued to call me that even after I mentioned I hated it.

  • Me: Conceived DD 1st month we tried. Conceived #2 1st month we tried after AF returned. That pregnancy resulted in a loss at 15 weeks on the day before Thanksgiving last year. Trying ever since...DX is unexplained. I started PIO shots Sunday night for my FET on Friday. OUCH!!! The shot itself isn't bad, but the soreness...Holy cow! I have to teach 2 aerobics classes tonight with my sore ass & I'm not looking forward to it! I am however, so excited for the FET. God willing it is successful & I'm pregnant by the anniversary of my loss.

    QOTW: Know-it-alls...I'm a teacher (8th grade US history) & work with some people who will stare down their nose at other every chance they get. Also, I can't stand the school gossips. I want to shout, " you teach middle school, you are not in middle school!"

  • Me: Conceived DD#1 after 3 cycles. Conceived DD#2 after 6 cycles, but she was stillborn at 37 weeks in March 2012. We have been trying for another ever since her birth with just 2 chemical pregnancies since. My age and DH's borderline morphology has me on my second round of letrazole.

    QOTW: I have several annoying coworkers but there is this one woman that works on my floor. Her cubicle used to be right outside of my office and her desk faced my door so I heard every phone conversation that she had. She is what I would call an "Eeyore." There is always something wrong and you would think that a mountain needed to be moved for every single problem. She also would stand at my door and when I would look up, she would knock and then say what she needed. Very annoying. They ended up giving her my office and I was moved to the other side of the floor. I only see her once in a while in the bathroom, but I try to avoid conversations with her.

    BFP #1 12.24.07 - DD born @ 39w1d on 08.26.08
    BFP #2 08.04.11 - DD born still @ 37w3d on 03.25.12

    Lilypie Angel and Memorial tickers

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TTC #3 since May 2012

    BFP #3 12.29.12 - CP @ 4w2d on 01.02.13
    BFP #4 10.17.13 - CP @ 4w2d on 10.23.13

    Hi Everybody: DS was a natural surprise a long time ago. (Ordered his cap and gown last night, that's right to graduate HIGH SCHOOL!  :((  ) 

    I am currently recovering from tubal removal surgery.  I will be starting FET process in Dec. 

    QOTW: Describe an annoying coworker:  HA! There is this guy here, and he fucking burbs all day long.  I think wow that isn't normal, you should probably reassess your eating and drinking habits.  When this previous girl worked here that was pregnant, he blamed her for making him fat (sympathy weight) Well she has been gone for a year and his gut keeps getting bigger. He is one of those guys who has to butt in to your conversations even if he is not a part of it.  And just this morning, he stood in my way when I was on the way to the printer and said. 'None shall pass' I looked at him like he was an idiot.  (I don't have time for your Monty python bullshit get out of my way) he yells on the phone, and he stomps when he walks by.  Oh AND he is one of those one uppers.  No matter what you say, he ALWAYS has a better story or scenario. Plus he degrades his employees.  UGH



      


  • Me: Both DDs conceived on second cycle of trying. Currently somewhere around cycle #26 of TTC#3, dx unexplained (eff you, unexplained). I'm 7dpo and going nuts.

    QOTW: I've been a SAHM since July 2012, but before that had a boss that was certifiably insane. She landed herself in the hospital with heart issues because she was so nuts.Clearly I wish no harm on her, but she made my life miserable by promising promotions, then when the time came pretending we had never talked about it. She loved to tell people what they wanted to hear to their faces, then talk crap behind their backs. The company is 80% women and she joked she was the sorority president. 

    Two DDs 10/08 and 08/10, no primary IF
    TTC #3 since 10/2011 - dx unexplained/weak ovulation
     3 BFN clomid + TI cycles, 5 BFN clomid/gonal f IUIs, 1 mmc IUI
    2/19/2014 IVF #1 Unexpected low E2 (oversuppressed) -> increased to max doses = 3 or 4 follicles, converting to IUI
    BFFP Saw 1 beautiful heartbeat at 6w6d, follow up u/s at 9w showed mmc. Eff this.
    NTNP 5/2014-9/2014, OPKs and TI 10/2014 - 1/2015. 
    RPL testing all normal, AFC, AMH, and FSH all normal. 
    IVF 1.2 1/22/2014 natural cycle start, AFC 28, 300 gonal f/150menopur. 
    ER 2/3/15 14R 8M 3F w/ICSI Day 5 transfer on 2/8/15 of one "Grade A+" blast and have TWO frosties!

    Yuck. I've always preferred male bosses.

  • 2006 DS1 was a natural surprise, miscarriage at 11weeks May 2009, tried for Ds2 who was born Oct 2011, Got pregnant with DD but lost her at 17 weeks July 25 2012. 3 more losses since and now waiting to start our Ivf next month. dx balanced translocation

    I use to have a coworker that would tell her sexual weekend stories to the entire store.

  • Hello would love to join the check-in :)

    Me: we are "thinking" about another fresh IVF/ICSI/PESA, this will be fresh #4 IVF cycle this time at CC*RM with Dr. Sch we would also have CCS testing this time and an FET.  I had a phone consult with him in July and he thinks we can try once more with my eggs, he expects maybe 2 normals and 10 eggs at the most retrieved, he is also thinking an aggressive protocol with Estrogen priming and a fresh PESA for DH this time too.  If we cycle, which I hope and pray we do, I would likely go for a one day work-up at CC*RM this winter 2014 and cycle in the summer 2014.  How we are going to afford it, I am not sure but I am trying to think positive.  Our first IVF/ICSI/PESA resulted in twins 2010 and nothing has worked since. DX DOR, Low AMH, DH Azoospermia due to CBAVD from CF. Thanks for reading my novel and wishing you all well in your TTC journeys :)

  • We got pregnant twice very easily (first try and second try) with an angel baby followed by DS.  Now on cycle 15 I believe and trying for #2.  Short LP unresponsive to progesterone; OB wants me to continue on the unmedicated route for a few more cycles because she doesn't think I need meds.  We'll reevaluate in March.

    QOTW: I've had a few but the current annoyance is actually my supervisor because she is too darn chatty.  She drops by to tell me something and ends up talking for 20 minutes.  I've heard certain stories too many times to count.  Not terrible on the "annoying co-workers" scale but still a bit frustrating at times.

    November 2010 - 10.5 week loss  o:) 
    October 2011 - DS (7)  <3 
    July 2014 - Stillborn DD (24 weeks)  o:) 
    August 2015 - DD (3)  <3 
    April 2018 - 5 week loss o:) 

  • Psychle 36+ (see what I did there?). DS naturally after 2 cycles. RE said today that he thinks DS was a very lucky month. RE also said he thinks we have MFI (shitty strict morpho) because I check out squeaky clean as long as today's tests come back normal (just ran a few repeats plus an AMA). Now moving onto genetics testing to find out whether DS's autism has a genetic component. If our risks are no higher than the general public of having another child on the spectrum, we *might* do IUI.

    QOTW: There's a know-it-all at work who yesterday complained that she and her new DH will be trying for a LO in December, but she is impatient and wants to be pregnant NOW. She says a LOT of stuff at work and kind of unknowingly alienates everyone, but I had a tougher time with that one than most of the stuff she says.

  • Me and DH have been TTC #2 practically since we came out of the hospital w/#1, she is now 18 months old tomorrow (!!). I was able to conceive naturally after 2 cycles of TTC, lost that pregnancy as did 3 more. I have been able to conceive within 1-2 cycles after each m/c. It's keeping the pregnancies that is the problem. Currently I've had 2 since my daughter was born.

    Currently I am not on any CD, I'm still waiting for AF post m/c #6. I spoke to a Reproductive Immunologist today, I'll make a post shortly about how that went...

    QOTW- Currently I'm my own boss, cause I run my own business, and my own co-worker. But when I worked away from home I luckily was a marketing rep, so I didn't have to deal a lot with annoying co-workers, then prior to that I worked with my sister. We fought like cats & dogs. I don't remember specifics, because that was 10 years ago. I definitely don't miss the days of working for someone else and having annoying co-workers.
