Happy Saturday!

My child slept last night!  He nursed at 5, then went back to sleep until 8:15!  I'm a new woman!

  • I have been trying to make an effort at being healthier and hoping to lose some weight in the process.  I got on the scale this morning to weigh our one dog (he has been looking like he is losing weight) and found that I've lost 2 pounds.  I'm one who weighs myself every day when I'm trying to lose, and I've been at a stand still all week with my weight, so this was a nice surprise.  Also further motivation to keep doing what I'm doing.

    We've been working on baby #1 since July 2013 using Open ID donor sperm.  8 IUI attempts with 5 actual IUIs and one chemical pregnancy.  We have one fresh IVF cycle under our belts as well as a FET.  I have endometriosis and a uterine septum that was corrected via surgery in November 2013. 

    11/14/14 -  Second HSG shows that tubes are still clear and ute is looking good. 

    12/6/14 - Started BCPs in prep for IVF #2

    12/22/14 - Saline u/s and endometrial scratch (All was clear and OUCH!)

    1/2/15 - Began stimming for IVF #2

    We are Mommas to four fur babies - 3 dogs and 1 cat.

  • @ATXmommas‌ - Thank you! It turns out that he has only lost maybe a pound since we last had him at the vet. It just looks like he has been slimming down, but I guess not.

    B&C, it's so fun when they start to eat real food. Looking forward to seeing pics of B with apples and sweet potatoes all over his sweet lil face!

    ETA: And good use of the BM bags!

    Right?  Saw it on Pinterest and thought, DUH.  I'd been thinking of giving them away because I bought a pack of 100 or something and only used about 6 for bm.  But they are the perfect size for purees too and then you can freeze them flat.  Love it!
    Married my wife 8/2007 ~ TTC #1 since 7/2011
    9 IUIs = 9 BFNs
    IVF October 2012: 22 eggs retrieved, 17 fertilized, 5 frozen
    ET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Blighted ovum discovered at 7w5d; D&E
    FET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Missed m/c discovered at 9w5d; D&E
    Karyotyping: normal ~ RPL Testing: normal ~ Hysteroscopy: normal
    FET #2: 1 blast transferred 10/25; BFP 10/31!
    EDD 7/13/14 ~ Induced at 37w4d due to pre-eclampsia ~ Born on 6/28/14
