bitter IF moment - Lance Armstrong

The guy has one ball and (I believe) went through chemo and radiation, but he managed to knock up his girlfriend of 5 months.  What gives?  I know I'm blissfully pregnant, but that still makes me a little jealous and bitter.  Sigh.

(If we ever get that miracle MFI oops! pregnancy I will obviously eat my words, but I just don't see it happening.)

    this reminds me of Steve from Sex & the City , when he finds out Miranda is pregnant "geez, good to know my one ball is working".   I don't begrudge him, the guy has been thru a lot.

    Our problem wasn't MFI but I'm still a little jealous but I'm glad they didn't have trouble.

    Hi Amber :)

    It is crazy, I wish we could have that miracle sperm pregnancy (I'm still praying for it).

    Desa's right, he's not human.

    It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

    I didn't read the article, but i know he did IVF for the kids he had with his wife.  I found this out when I googled my old doctor -- he went to my doc's partner (the guy who did my transfer, actually).

    I always joke with my husband that I hope they accidentally used lance's superhuman sperm so we'd get crazy athlete babies.

    unfreakin' believable.

    I hadn't heard this, but I think he and his (ex)wife did IVF before right when he was in the middle of treatment?  I think they went to the same place I go. (different r.e. but same place).

    I guess I shouldn't say too much since we got pg on a break cycle and we have male factor, BUT my DH has two parts and we still have trouble.  And the reason I think this is funny is because its another unplanned hollywood pregnancy.

    My BIL only has "one ball", so I told my SIL (after my husband and I had been TTC for a year and a half) that they should start trying sooner, rather than later "just in case".  Wouldn't you know they get knocked up the first freakin' month.  I was SOOOOO BITTER....
