  Hi @Km672‌! This weekend: we went to a baby shower this morning and will chill the rest of the day. Tomorrow, I am focusing on my 20 mile training run. 35 days until the marathon!!

  Hey @RunCC37‌! Hope you had a great weekend and I'm keeping my fx for your DE cycle! We had a wedding Friday night and went to a concert Saturday night. It was fabulous spending all weekend with my husband!! Update: my phone consult with SIRM to look into immune testing/treatments is Tuesday. I'm nervous, but it can't get any worse, I guess. It was really depressing that I literally had to write the RE a letter to explain all of our IF treatments... There wasn't enough space on the form 8-|

  Me (32) DOR, elevated NK Cells/ 2 copies of MTHFR mutation/ MH (35) azoo/high DFI   (TTC#1 since 2009)

  IVFs#1-4: (4/10-2/12) all BFN

  Surprise Bfp (9/11) - c/p

  DS IUI#1-2 (9/12, 10/12) - BFN

  DS IVF: (11/12) - BFN

  DE/DS IVF#1: (10/13) - 2 day 3 embies transferred-BFFN

  FET of 2 day 6 blasts: (12/13) - c/p

  DE/DS IVF #2: (4/14) - 1 day 5 blast transferred...BFFN...again.

  FET 5/14: 1 day 5 hatching blast transferred...another BFFN

  Repeat SHG 6/14-normal / Endometrial Receptivity Array biopsy 7/14-Receptive Uterus

  New RE, additional testing reveals elevated NK Cells

  FET of 1 day 5 blast (RE recommends transferring 1 due to elevated NK cells) with lovenox, steroids & intralipids in October

  Hi all! Thanks for the shoutout @IFinTN‌! I'm doing good. I have some kind of infection that I originally thought was a bladder infection but it became more painful and didn't respond to the antibiotics I was given. Now I'm waiting on lab results to figure out what kind of meds I need. So I've been taking Vicodin again and sleeping as much as possible! Thank God for family helping out! We had newborn pics taken last week and I can't wait to get the images. The babies are gaining weight nicely and sleeping so well. I keep telling G that the dr is going to switch him from the high calorie formula to slim-fast!

  Hi ladies, @RunCC37‌ yay for finding a profile you like, fx things can start to move quickly! @Km672‌ I love summer concerts, sounds like you had a fun wknd AFM. We meet w the psych consult tomorrow then should have access to the data base to pick our donor! I'm so ready to get things moving. I'm used to terrible cycles and am hopeful this one goes much better, I feel much better about using donor eggs over my crappy ones.

  Don't worry about being irritable. I hated how the meds made me feel. 
  

  
  

  @runcc37  Way to go!!  20 mile run....  Oh my gosh, you are amazing! FX on your match.

  
  

  @KM672 Good luck with SIRM!

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  @Doubleportion I hope you get better soon!  This twin thing is exhausting as is.

  
  

  Hey!!!!   @IFinTN I have been busy but I promise I keep all the IFV ladies in my thoughts. ((HUGS)) I hope this is it for you!

    My little boy is sick and needs at least two more surgeries.  He doesn't feel good so he fusses nonstop.  You would think we would get some sort of break as much as we went through to have them....   nothing is easy.  Plus learning to take care of his needs has been exhausting. My little lady is doing well though.

  Thanks for the shout out @IFinTN.

  I have been sleeping a whole lot lately. It is my first week of summer vacation, as summer school ended last week. I feel like I'm a little behind everywhere. But honestly, everything is going so well that I have no complaints.

  
  

  @runcc37 Can't wait hear more updates. You have a lot to look forward to!

  @KM672 I hope your appointment went well yesterday

  @IFinTN I hope you are feeling better! I heard/read about your allergic reaction.. Totally sucks. Happened to me in my late 20's. I loved mussels.

  @Doubleportion Hope you feel better and yay for the great update on the babies!

  @sorrellam30 Yay for next steps!

  @firesiren Hugs! Keeping your little boy in my prayers

  @geordie314 Congrats on graduating!
