Me: 35 DH: 28 TTC since June 2016 Azoospermia diagnosis (zero count) Dec 2016 AZFc chromosome microdeletion discovery March 2017 Unsuccessful TESE for DH in August 2017 October 2017 IVF with donor sperm
29R, 24M, 16F, 2d5, 4d6 (6 embryos total) Only 3 could have PGS. 2/3 normal. 5 embies frozen 12/15/17 FET #1 (1 embryo)--CP 2/7/17 FET #2 (2 embryos)--BFN Chronic endometritis diagnosis May 2018
ERA Sept 2018--borderline receptive--12 more hours of progesterone Abnormal SIS Oct 2018 Repeat hysteroscopy Nov 1. Treated recurring endometritis. 12/4/18 FET #3 (2 embryos)--BFN Our journey has come to an end.
CD/DPO of first BFP? Got a faint line on wondfo last night on 9 dpo. Still light but much darker this morning at 10 dpo.
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? We started NTNP Jan '16 with the plan to start trying Oct '16 but I stopped Ovulating in Sep '16 so that didn't happen. When my cycles returned in Feb '17, we decided to really try. Since then it has been 3 months and 2 cycles.
What did your chart look like? No chart
What were you doing TGKU? PNVs, Extra Folic Acid, OPKs, and monitoring CM
How was your timing? Based on when I assume O was, -2, -1(x2), 0
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? Mostly just more BB pain than usual and AF cramps starting 8 dpo. Also, I have a fit bit and my HR has been uncommonly high since O.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? I haven't told him yet, but I plan to get a digital since he probably won't believe the faint line. I'm planning to bring out his christmas stocking and put the test and a little note saying something about getting our christmas baby in the stocking. I might look for a good onesie to go along with it.
Anything else to add? I want to thank all of you girls for your support and knowledge. There were a few of you that helped me to realize the steps to get my cycle back on track and then all of you have supported me since I came back. I am so grateful. I seriously love this community and will miss interacting with each of you everyday. I will lurk and keep my fingers crossed for you to all join me soon! I have never met a more deserving group!

@wabash15 Holy shit! A girl gets the flu and drops off the face of the earth, and this happens…what a great bit of news to return to. So happy for you, IF sister!! You've been such an amazing support for us all. Thanks a million, honey. HH9!!!
Me: 45 OH: 42 Beloved SS: born 12/2011 TTC my bio #1/our #2 since January 2016 **TW** June 2016 had CP **end TW** August 2016 - dx with DOR Somewhere in here received recommendation to do IVF with donor eggs, elected not to; OH dx with Low T May 2017 - began freezing sperm June 2017 - OH began treatment for Low T July 2017 - began doing 1 IUI via a midwife and 1 at home insemination each cycle http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6259ba July 2018 - exhausted frozen sperm, officially NTNP since OH is probably shooting blanks
CD/DPO of first BFP? 25/10 very faint, pos on digi 11 dpo
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? 10/10
What did your chart look like? I didn't temp this cycle, just tracked my OPKs so not much to see there
What were you doing TGKU? PNVs, OPKs, CoQ10, Preseed, (no BSF )
How was your timing? -1 (according to FF based on my OPK, didn't temp to confirm O date)
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? Basically none. Boobs have been pretty sore, but nothing really different than any other cycle.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? I didn't tell him right away because I didn't really believe it myself. By the time he got home from work last night I was too tired to do anything cute, so I told him I had something to show him and had him close his eyes and hold out his hand. When he opened his eyes, for a split second, he thought I handed him a strange highlighter lol
Anything else to add? It's still hard to believe this is real. I think we had convinced ourselves that it wasn't going to happen on our own. I am just so thankful to have been a part of this group here. Years ago, I didn't even try to join in because the close-knitedness of the community was so intimidating to me. But I can honestly say you all have helped me through this process so much, and it's sincere, genuine help and support and caring which is what makes this place so freakin special! This feels like a second "home" to me, so I will be lurking and rooting so hard for all of you!
Woah! I haven't been around much and I missed quite a lot this week. Congratulations to our grads!
