Hi gals,
My name is Lindsey and I was very active on TTTC and PAIF as well as my birth month group under my old screen name 1983Lindsey. I just added a "2" to my new one. 
I deleted my old account to erase pictures I didn't want on here forever due to the new TOU agreements. Anyhow, I am 31 and have a beautiful son after 6 cycles with my RE and 1.5 years of TTTC. I have a pituitary glad issue where I do not make enough FSH or LH, as well as most likely only one functioning tube due to scar tissue from previous infections and surgeries. I also have hypothyroid and Crohn's Disease. My husband is good except he has low morphology at 2%. For our son, we did 2 clomid cycles, 3 hybrid clomid/bravelle IUI's and then finally we did an all follitism IUI cycle with 4 mature, 3 maybe follicles and I got my sticky baby. He was born in last September. I am starting the process again and have a consult on June 10th for IVF. I am hoping to cycle later this summer or early September. I am choosing to do IVF with SET because I do not want the high risk of multiples that I had with my last IUI that worked. I am 100% OOP, so I don't want to do IUI with injectables and cancel every time I have more than one follicle since I want to reduce my risk of multiples, or if that follicle is on the damaged tube. It would end up being much more expensive than just doing IVF. My old RE suggested that I just do IVF from the start when I am ready for #2. I will sadly be going to a different RE and a different clinic this time, as their all inclusive IVF is $9,200 w/ICSI and assisted hatching vs $15,500 for the same at my old clinic. Their SART ratings are about the same, infact the new clinic might be a bit better. Anyhow, I wish I didn't have to wait until June for my appointment, but they are very busy! If it is okay, I will just hang around here until then and get to know you all.
