Intro'ing from 3T

Hi all! We've been TTC since March 2012, I joined TTC around February or March 2014, and then joined 3T around April or May, after it looked like I had a blocked tube during an hsg. From there we were referred to an RE who performed a lap surgery and found that my tubes and everything else are fine, but I did have a bit of endo. Not enough to be the cause of our IF though, so our official diagnosis is unexplained IF.
We went through 3 IUIs (medicated with femara) over the summer and took a break. Now we're into an IVF cycle. I just had a SIS and TOT done last week, and the Dr found a polyp, so I'm having surgery to remove it next week, but it shouldn't delay anything (more than the upcoming holidays already have). We're scheduled for injection training on the 18th, and the plan is to do the ER and ET in January!

Non-if related: We have 3 cats that are pretty well spoiled, and we both work at the same university, in related departments (Mr is a prof/scientist, I'm a department educator). I played roller derby until we started treatments, then I took up running- I prefer trail running to any road or treadmill. I just did a trail half-marathon last month! But now running is on hold too, so I'm hoping that I'll get back into sewing or get better at knitting soon. :)

    Welcome. I'm sorry you had to find yourself here, we do have our January group starting up soon! I'll hopefully be a part of that too.  

    Non-IF: That's awesome you did roller derby, my best friend does it and I can't imagine how you ladies do it. I'd be a broken boned mess.

    Thanks, everyone. I'll be heading to the January group shortly.
    @doves654, I've done some reffing during scrimmage practice, that's serious business!
    @Dyork, you never know until you try ;) Seriously though, I've been pretty lucky. The worst I've had was an ankle sprain and a deep muscle bruise in my hip.
