Working on our "Read First" post...

GoldenKeysGoldenKeys admin
edited October 2015 in Infertility

Hello everyone,

A reg recently pointed out to me that the 'Read first' post has gone missing from this board.   I'll be working on a rough draft to replace it today, and will keep the thread open for suggestions from members of the board before posting the final draft.

Additionally, the need for a Grad Checkin was brought up, in which updates for graduated regs can be posted and celebrated in the same place. This allows those who are having a rough IF day to approach pics, pregnancy updates, etc on their own terms more easily.  If you're interested in leading the Grad Checkin thread, please let me know.

Good luck to everyone,


GoldenKeys

    I think the abbreviations used in this community are a little different from the ones used in others, as we abbreviate so many common medical procedures, medication, etc.  It might be useful to include a short list of those.

    And I'm all about a grad check-in post.  It means a lot to me to see success stories for people who have walked these paths.
    Me- 39 (turning 40 in April), TTC for the first time ever (since Jan 2015), low ovarian reserve
    Married 3/14/14 to my wonderful wife, but her sperm count is rather low
    TTC with frozen donor sperm and science

    7 IUIs, 7 BFNs.
    2 IVF attempts, both cancelled and converted to IUI, both BFNs.
    Decided that my tired old ovaries are ready to retire.
    Next step- reciprocal IVF, using my wife's eggs, my uterus!  
    fresh 5 day transfer (2 embryos) 4/17/17- BFP! 
    Identical twins "due" 1/2/17 (but anticipated arrival sometime December)

    That's a great idea.  I'll start the list by including the ones on the 3T board, and regs from this board can add or make corrections as needed.

    I really think she would be perfect for it. I mean she has held our group together on the Sept/Oct IVF Thread.
