Why am I having sex

  Oh honey, I'm so sorry. You're having sex for the same reason I was taking OPKs on a non-trying cycle. Because IF makes you fucking crazy. And because you want this so much that you can't NOT try. I know that this has been a roller coaster month and I hate it for you. I'm starting to wonder if having sex is ever really going to be fun again. Hurry up IVF!

  After two losses, a rainbow arrived! DD born 11.5.11

  Dx with severe Asherman's syndrome after a botched PP D&C (pursuing med mal)
  

  Hysteroscopy Oct '13, not enough progress 
  

  Hysteroscopy Jan '14, given an end-of-the-road diagnosis

  Joined International Asherman's Association April '14 
  

  Not ready to give up yet.

  Hysteroscopy with Dr. Isaacson (an expert in the USA) 6.2.14: Good prognosis, at least 50% of cavity open.

  Repeat hysteroscopy scheduled with Dr. I on 6.16.14. Great progress. Unbenched!!!!

  Discussing actively TTC with DH after the heartache of the last year. We're both reeling.

   

  Please, please, please.

  F-you to the people that ask when the next one is coming too... don't you love it when they ask not just "when are you having another" but rather "when are WE going to have another?"  Um, "we"?  Sorry, freakshow that works with my mother-in-law that I've only met at one other gathering... if I end up having another, I'm quite certain that the "we" that will be having it will be my husband and I and YOU will have nothing to do with it. 

  
  

  I started asking people when they ask me a question like that "So, did you have to pay or get money back from the IRS this year, and how much?"  Then, when they look at me like I'm crazy for asking a completely unrelated question in response to theirs, I say "Oh, I thought this was a let's-ask-each-other-personal-shit-conversation".

  Married September 2005 - TEAM PINK x2 this time around

  It must be in the air right now - two people asked me when we're having another this week too. Sigh. And I also got (from someone who knows DD was an IVF baby) - you know after you have one baby sometimes your system just rights itself and you get pregnant on your own. WTF? I am too polite to say I lost two babies and we had a failed FET. And now I am on Metformin which makes me ill. So STFU. NOTHING is working itself out.

  Sex should be fun. "Making the baby is the fun part!" Or at least that's what I'm told. And that was true for the first week. But then, yeah, it just starts to stink. We'll all get back to that point of sex being fun eventually!

  Happily Mrs. C

  I've been around the boards long enough to know it is POSSIBLE for the good side to pick up an egg from the bad side, so I would absolutely try, try, try! 

  
  

  Have you been drinking? It only works if you're drunk, saying ignorant things, and wearing hooker heels. Christ be with you.
