We're queer. I'm 33, have severe stage 4 endo, and had both fallopian tubes removed. My love ("Manada" on the boards, 32) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tavin and Casey at 21 weeks gestation.
Our IUIs with @Manada: IUI# 1-7 (December 2012- September 2013) all BFN. Tried natural, femara, clomid, puregon/follistim, clomid and menopur combo, both the ovidrel and HCG triggers.
Our IVFs: IVF #1 my eggs November/December 2013: Cancelled IVF due to poor response
IVF #2 my eggs/Manada's uterus January/February 2014 BCPs and lupron overlap Stimmed: 1/22-2/2: Bravelle and Menopur (dosage ranged from B300 and M150 to B375 and M150 to B300 and M225) 2/4 retrieved 10 eggs. Endo was much worse than expected. Only 3 eggs fertilized; February 7 transferred two day 3 embryos, froze one. All great condition. BFP eve of 6dp3dt; Beta 1 (11dp3dt): 110; Beta 2 (13dp3dt): 175; Beta 3 (15dp3dt): 348; Beta 4 (19dp3dt): 2222; Beta 5 (21dp3dt): 4255 1st ultrasound (3/6 6w 1d): TWINS!!!! Twin A measuring 6w1d with a heartbeat of 118bpm. Twin B measuring 6w0d with a heartbeat of 113bpm.
***July 18, 2014 we lost our beautiful babies at 21 weeks gestation. They were born too early. Tavin Sara T. and Casey Elizabeth T. are beautiful and precious and we will love them and miss them forever.***

Thank you everyone. It's so good knowing that I'm not alone (although it's horrible because of what you've had to go through).
I'm taking all the baby stuff we had been given the week before we had to say goodbye from the garage into the nursery today, sorting it out, grieving a bit, and organizing it.
*Said goodbye to our angel baby July 30. 2014. only had him for 21 weeks in my belly, missing him every day*

So sorry for your loss!!!
I lost my boys, Nathan & Conner [28 weeks], on July 16th.
I'm just now finding myself getting into their "room" [which was just storage...it wasn't a nursery yet] to sort through and decide what to keep and donate from the piles of things I had bought just days before losing them!
I'm still hesitating, but I know it has to be done!
It's been exactly one week for me as well. He was 36 weeks and I would have had my final growth ultrasound today. How does this get easier?
So sorry for your loss as well!
It's been 3 weeks for me. I can honestly say some days are so easy it's scary! But then you'll hit that wall that will knock you down! It's definitely a roller coaster!
