@kp214- glad to hear he is gaining weight and getting bigger!! So happy for you
@emmasemm- your symptoms sound so hopeful!! I am crossing everything for you that this is it girl!!
@hopefuljj- Did you get your own genetic sequencing done or is that through your clinic? Is it a problem with the guy has MTFHR too? Are you on the special folate for yours?
@hopeful_mom- Yay for being darker!! i feel like after a certain point on tests (maybe like 100 or something), the lines really can't get darker anymore!! hopefully in 24 hours you will have more good news. Thinking of you often and so happy for you!

@Hopeful_mom omg lady, your poor vag!! I seriously hope you find some relief soon!!! Snuggle in little bean! Is beta tomorrow?? I promise to check back every few hours tomorrow to see how you are doing!
@JamieH2000 I got 23 and me done on my own and upgraded to the medical version and downloaded my entire gene sequence from there and uploaded it to one of the sites that reads through it all and tells you all your risks, things you are predisposed for and of mutations. MTFHR is very complicated but there are two mutations that have been heavily studied, C667T and A1298C and I am homogenius for 667 which means I have 2 mutations. And DH is hetero for 667 and hetero for 1298 meaning he has one for each. Without getting too scientific (and I had an actual clinical scientist for a molecular diagnostic company who does a lot of genetic testing including MTHFR explain this to me after I posted it on a panic on my Kindara Chart so I know it's accurate and not me just being bonkers) I'm in a crazy situation where I have a 75% chance a baby would be fine but a 25% chance that an embryo could contain a triple MTHFR mutation (homo for 677, het for 1298) but they really don't know what the implications are for a triple because it's so rare, likely high risk for elevated homocysteine and associated conditions. And of course the embryo would also be unlikely to develop.
When i emailed my RE in a panic she said "There is no concrete data on the impact of MTHFR mutations on fertility. There are many hypotheses, but no definite conclusions. Some studies suggest that certain genotypes can increase aneuploidy rates, others show that they can impact the ability of normal embryos to implant. My personal thought is that MTHFR variations do likely impact fertility at various milestones and this is probably why I see at least 1 mutation in nearly all the patients I encounter. ". So the takeaway is that most couples who end up in her office...the awful infertility office have at least one mutation of MTHFR and we have a combined 4. Goooood grief!!!!
Ok sorry that was so long. It's been a crazy couple of days! I figure I'd be hetero for one and maybe DH to but being HOMO for the big one and DH Hetero For that one and the other one????? Give me a break!!!! In short I am switching to a prenatal with folate ASAP and wish I had done it forever ago!
Me: Hashimoto Autoimune Disease Homozygous MTHFR Cr677 DOR - AMH .27 High FSH (don't even know how high) 2 iui's to start - BFN IVF 1 -3 made it do day 5! 2 5AA 1 6BB PGS results = all abnormal IVF 2 - stimmed for 19 days. insanity. Had 5 follicles that looked mature but only 2 contained mature eggs the others were empty. Nothing made it to day 5 IVF 3 - added in HGH - 4 mature follicles (had some empties again) 3 made it to day 5/6 for PGS (held for testing with next retrieval IVF 4 - Upped my dosage for the first time - Canceled 11 days into sims - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 5 - Canceled - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 6 - 3 mature, 2 fertalized 1 made it to day 5 and sent for PGS
Sent in IVF round 3 and 6 (4 embryos) for PGS testing and got 2 normal embryos!!! 1Boy and 1Girl. Took a little over a year to get those two embryos so demanded all sorts of test prior to attempting transfer. Did EFT, ERA and NK Cells testing.
FET#1 - Intralipid drips, Prednisone, and did a depot lupron shot before starting the FET protocol Chemical pregnancy FET#2 - PGS normal boy - BFN Natural pregnancy - cycle following the FET2???? Miscarriage at 8 weeks. viability scan had shown an enlarged yolk sac so I had been warned that it was likely not chromosonally normal
DEIVF cycle - picked a donor who is willing to be open! Her cycle resulted in in 4 PGS Normal embryos 1st transfer - chemical pregnancy 2nd transfer - success, May 17 2020 due date!
hopefuljj so heres my confusion why isn't your ER being the one to go over this stuff with you?? Now I feel like i need to go through my test results again. Is it common for men to have that type of gene?

Well you can see what my RE said about it above. She isn't going over it more than that likely because there is nothing I can do about it. You can't change your genes and like she said in the quote above, technically there is no concrete data on the impact of MTFHR on fertility. But she does think it causes issue... It was the one test (other than antiovarian antibodies) that she didn't order that I was curious about. But she wrote me a script now for a folate, but I think I'm going the route of taking the one the clinical scientist recommended. Lol.

@hopeful_mom- haha its today. I am officially in my thirties now!! 30 has to be better than 29, so its all good! HAVE YOU HEARD FROM YOUR CLINIC YET?! Good news for you is the bday present I want!!
@hopefuljj- wow, that is SO interesting. I may have to get that testing done too. I understand what they say about not being able to change your genetics, but they could at least research MTFHR more! I should probably be on folate too.. but thank goodness you found this now. And I am glad that 75% of embryos should be ok, but it is still scary and frustrating!

Jamie, I totally agree! Everything around MTFHR has been coming out in the recent years because they've been actually researching it now so more info will be sure to come soon! It also explains my thyroid issues cuz I'm prone to it. And my sensitivity to toxins. Annyway. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! 30 is going to be an AMAZING year lady! I just know it! Hope you have a wonderful day and birthday weekend:)

AFM: 2nd Beta is in 246 whoo hoo!!! Thrilled that it didn't just double but tripled, thats my baby!! 3rd beta on monday!! I've been hurting as we all know so I waited a long time to see my RE today which I was to do regardless as I had very MINOR spotting last night. Tried not to stress out and post it everywhere ...BUT while carrying my twins I never had any spotting of anything so I was a lil terrified to say the least. Need to move past what was and just try and live this pregnancy!! I wish we were at US already!! My prog dropped a lil to 32.5 but its still ok.
JamieH2000 this coming year will be the best year yet for you! Hope you're enjoying your day and doing something fabulous!!! xo Yes i'm sending u extra hugs today

@jamieh2000 Yep, still hanging in there and testing every day, still BFNs so far, tomorrow is first FRER attempt, but still too early according to my RE... time will tell. By Friday night we will know! To be honest today I'm seeing things from a slightly different perspective after the shooting in Vegas. Mandalay Bay is where we stayed when we got married and we saw a concert on that ground.

I don't think I could've asked for better I'm thrilled!!
the nurse originally seemed very quite and sad at first when she spoke and was giving me a heart attack like it was bad news. Which I told her so I needed to breathe and then let her continue....she really freaked me out.
prog dropped a lil more to 27.5 and E2 to 197 she said that everything looks great. Is our E2 suppose to be higher??
First US is scheduled for 10/16 ugh so far away...

@emmasemm- you are right about perspective. My heart is heavy today for those in Las Vegas. So devastating. I agree, you still have time for it to turn positive, so good for you for keeping up the positivity! I haven't tested much during the tww since i think I have POAS PTSD since I have never seen a positive before.
@hopeful_mom- WOW, that is a STRONG rise for a STRONG baby! You got this!! I am not sure about progesterone except that they want it more than 15, so yours looks good! I know 10/16 feels far away, but hopefully the next two weeks will go as quick possible. Maybe plan a fun weekend trip/activity the next two weekends?

Omg hopeful_mom I feel like I'm gonna start balling at my desk!!!!! I'm so happy for you I could cry and jump up and down at the same time!! I know there is plenty to still be nervous about but this is just so awesome!!!!!!!!!
Me: Hashimoto Autoimune Disease Homozygous MTHFR Cr677 DOR - AMH .27 High FSH (don't even know how high) 2 iui's to start - BFN IVF 1 -3 made it do day 5! 2 5AA 1 6BB PGS results = all abnormal IVF 2 - stimmed for 19 days. insanity. Had 5 follicles that looked mature but only 2 contained mature eggs the others were empty. Nothing made it to day 5 IVF 3 - added in HGH - 4 mature follicles (had some empties again) 3 made it to day 5/6 for PGS (held for testing with next retrieval IVF 4 - Upped my dosage for the first time - Canceled 11 days into sims - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 5 - Canceled - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 6 - 3 mature, 2 fertalized 1 made it to day 5 and sent for PGS
Sent in IVF round 3 and 6 (4 embryos) for PGS testing and got 2 normal embryos!!! 1Boy and 1Girl. Took a little over a year to get those two embryos so demanded all sorts of test prior to attempting transfer. Did EFT, ERA and NK Cells testing.
FET#1 - Intralipid drips, Prednisone, and did a depot lupron shot before starting the FET protocol Chemical pregnancy FET#2 - PGS normal boy - BFN Natural pregnancy - cycle following the FET2???? Miscarriage at 8 weeks. viability scan had shown an enlarged yolk sac so I had been warned that it was likely not chromosonally normal
DEIVF cycle - picked a donor who is willing to be open! Her cycle resulted in in 4 PGS Normal embryos 1st transfer - chemical pregnancy 2nd transfer - success, May 17 2020 due date!
@emmasemm omg lady, it is all so sad and that must feel so surreal having a connection to the location. Life is terrifying, I often wonder how mothers must feel when it feels impossible to protect anyone from all of this craziness. It truly is a sad sad day for so so many families:(. Regardless I still hope the FRER gives you a BFP because we need more good people in this world and I'm sure your baby would be one of the really good ones.

Awww @hopefuljj thank you for those lovely words :-) Its really awful what happened. You just can't imagine it. At the Ari Grande concert in Manchester earlier this year one of my employees was there with his daughters - they were ok thankfully - but that people would target children enjoying music shocked me then, and I'm shocked again now.

Today when I woke up I wasn't feeling great...I probably won't be for a while I I had no clue about Vegas and started seeing story after story just horrified!!! Its scary the world we are trying to bring our babies into...it scares me a lot. I sometimes wonder if I'm selfish because i'm older and may not be able to be here as long to care and protect them. To take your anger out or whatever it is on people you dont even know is just to hard to comprehend. I fee so terrible for all those peoples family and friends. I did a piece on Orlando and I hated that this tragedies are still happening. Mother nature is a bitch on her own but these awful tragedies that can be avoided are just sickening!!!
Joslynj11 its so good to hear from you, I really appreciate it Hope you're lil lady is sitting tight and you're doing well! You're always welcome
emmasemm I'm looking forward to seeing that squinter pop up for you soon!!
JamieH2000 I kept saying please be over 1000 or close to it So I really was so pleased...almost thought I did my calculations wrong the first time I"m so anxious to kno my lil pnut is in the write spot!! I believing its all fine we just know how hard it is!
hopefuljj I'm trying hard to take it one day at a time but i'm in it!!! And I thanked my pnut for giving me a good number so I could relax the rest of the day!! I was doing a lil happy dance myself I'm still concerned with all the immune unknowns just praying this will be it!!

Hey ladies - well last night I got strong cramps and spotting, assume the crinone is the only thing stopping AF so waiting for a call back from the clinic to see what they want me to do. I'm pissed right now at not monitoring my progesterone level further in the last week, but otherwise ok (I move to the angry stage of grief pretty quickly). DH is as ever my rock.
And I've spent the last half an hour prepping my November meetings to allow for round 2. My RE better be ready for me!!!

@emmasemm- I'm so sorry, its soo dissapointing when it doesn't work. But I love your positive attitude and already planning for the next round!! What changes are you suggesting for round 2? Hopefully your RE will be game for whatever you want to try. I also hope you can get going again soon!! When are your meetings?
@hopeful_mom- how you hanging in there?!! Just passing the days until US I am guessing?
@hopefuljj- Hoping things are going good for you too!

@emmasemm I'm so sorry lady:(. Being armed with notes for your consult is absolutely the way to go. Also if you haven't ever listened to it, the Beat Infertility Podcast is very helpful sometimes after a failed cycle. Lots of good episodes to choose from:)
Me: Hashimoto Autoimune Disease Homozygous MTHFR Cr677 DOR - AMH .27 High FSH (don't even know how high) 2 iui's to start - BFN IVF 1 -3 made it do day 5! 2 5AA 1 6BB PGS results = all abnormal IVF 2 - stimmed for 19 days. insanity. Had 5 follicles that looked mature but only 2 contained mature eggs the others were empty. Nothing made it to day 5 IVF 3 - added in HGH - 4 mature follicles (had some empties again) 3 made it to day 5/6 for PGS (held for testing with next retrieval IVF 4 - Upped my dosage for the first time - Canceled 11 days into sims - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 5 - Canceled - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty IVF 6 - 3 mature, 2 fertalized 1 made it to day 5 and sent for PGS
Sent in IVF round 3 and 6 (4 embryos) for PGS testing and got 2 normal embryos!!! 1Boy and 1Girl. Took a little over a year to get those two embryos so demanded all sorts of test prior to attempting transfer. Did EFT, ERA and NK Cells testing.
FET#1 - Intralipid drips, Prednisone, and did a depot lupron shot before starting the FET protocol Chemical pregnancy FET#2 - PGS normal boy - BFN Natural pregnancy - cycle following the FET2???? Miscarriage at 8 weeks. viability scan had shown an enlarged yolk sac so I had been warned that it was likely not chromosonally normal
DEIVF cycle - picked a donor who is willing to be open! Her cycle resulted in in 4 PGS Normal embryos 1st transfer - chemical pregnancy 2nd transfer - success, May 17 2020 due date!
@emmasemm I hate hearing that I'm so sorry! Unfortunately we all know what you're going through. You do have the best attitude and try to keep tight hold of that!! I hope you'll have a good appt with your RE for next steps.
JamieH2000 I wish it was that simple! I swear this is going to be worse then the tww if thats possible!! I don;t know. Last night my stomach just started bothering me and it only feels ok when I'm laying this morning. I was terrified all night praying I wouldn't start bleeding. Can't even explain to you why. Thank g-d theres no cramping but I'm stressed. I'm trying not to be as theres nothing I can do but I worry. I hate worrying so much. I just want to be happy and think about the future but its hard!! So waiting for this US is torture right now...I might have to get in next week...

@Hopeful_mom I can only imagine the level of worry you must be dealing with:(. I won't even tell you not to because let's be real, it's impossible not to after all you have been through. AFM I will likely start at the beginning of November. Feels like a lifetime away:-/. Was going to check out possibility of a luteal stim but I have a crazy work day in the beginning of November that's our craziest day of the year (I worked 22 hours last year onsite at our flagship event) and I can't have ER possibly land on that day. So I think I'll just have to wait and go in to check on baseline when my next AF arrives. We shall see! I might have a crazy delayed O again like I did after my last two cycles. In the meantime just stressing over not having sent away for PGS results and wondering if my embabies are all abnormal again.

@hopefuljj yay for November!!! My first BFP ever and my nieces bday so I've become pretty fond of that month i kno ur trying everything r u thinking about another protocol even though u did get 3 frost urs this cycle!!! @emmasemm lady u have been amazing at keeping track of sept ivf do u remember the different protocol artesiem used this time? I want to say it was the mirodose lupron. Now originally she was nervous remembering my horror story using it, but so far poo poo this has been her best cycle yet. She went from getting. Itching to test or maybe one or two from previous cycles to now 10 blasts. It's amazing!! I don't remember ur different protocols at the moment just another thing to think about. geez I though I was the only one with crap job stress, ugh 22hrs that sux!!! And I'm getting too old for the all nighters I hate to say!! PGS is not easy at all wait to see what you get first so u can be less stressed. Like you said we want to get to a transfer!!!
@jamieh2000 I hope u did something fabulous to celebrate you!!! How is the lupron going? You've started right??
AFM:: I'm still stressed and gave in and emailed my RE and realized it's the holiday and want hear back from him till Monday now anyway. So hoping to have an u eventful weekend!!!

@hopefuljj- its hard to wait, and i had the delayed ovulation after a cycle too! Hopefully it wait even longer and maybe timing will work out for your work schedule! Hopefully you can get another 3 blasts at least, and then that is a good amount for testing!!
@hopeful_mom- that would be great if they could let you come in next week, even towards the end for the US so you don't have to worry all weekend! I have a really good feeling for you, so just try to stay positive!!

Had the official beta BFN today, but knowing in advance was definitely better for me. If I'd still had strong hope and got a BFN I think I might have crumbled. This also reaffirmed my testing all the way from trigger strategy for me again next time. I need that to avoid a shock.
@jamieh2000 my next appointment is a week today Thursday 12th and I'm well armed with questions and suggestions and feeling hopeful for my RE being open to changes as he wanted to see me before I O which sounds good for trying priming :-) I'm armed with all the protocols tried by the Sep IVF group as we had a lot of multi cycle ladies including @hopeful_mom and it was also good to see you and your RE do sometimes need to learn from a few cycles to find the sweet spot, so I'm ready to get back on that horse! Where are you with your new donor now? Will you test the embies and do a frozen transfer?
@hopefuljj oh yes I've heard all the beat Infertility podcasts! I've also worked my way through the ones from creatingafamily too- plus some British and Australian ones! I have a 2 hour commute each day so I get through podcasts pretty fast! And please come join us in November!!! I was @hopeful_mom's strongest supporter (and spreadsheet wizard) in the sep group
@hopeful_mom have you joined the June BMB yet? I need to know where to stalk to see your US pic ;-)

@emmasemm- I actually go to Dr. Rodgers from the Beat Infertility podcasts and love her We have the final legal agreement ready for signing, and my baseline is on Monday. Donor baseline is on Wed, so hopefully we will get the green light and she will then start stims in 10 days from now! We are not testing, so it is a fresh transfer (though my protocol is like an FET, since I am not doing the retreival part). Lots of steps to go through still so I'm still very anxious, but hoping this is it! I love how you have decision trees and plans and everything. I definitely feel you can get more than 1 egg with the right protocol! The first time is somewhat of a guess, but these boards are proof that ladies can have great success on second, third, etc cycles! I can't wait to hear what your RE says!

@emmasemm- haha does your RE know about Beat Infertility or Dr. Rodgers at all? I know you are in Germany, but the world is small now with the internet! She is the same in person as she is on the podcasts.. she called me personally after the donor being pregnat incident and was really kind/funny. I feel like she is really invested to get this to work for me. Also her nurse Amber, who was on maternity leave from Feb- summer, called me personally too, even though i hadn't talked to her since February! They are quite the team and really give great care!

Re: Low AMH Level
@emmasemm- your symptoms sound so hopeful!! I am crossing everything for you that this is it girl!!
@hopefuljj- Did you get your own genetic sequencing done or is that through your clinic? Is it a problem with the guy has MTFHR too? Are you on the special folate for yours?
@hopeful_mom- Yay for being darker!! i feel like after a certain point on tests (maybe like 100 or something), the lines really can't get darker anymore!! hopefully in 24 hours you will have more good news. Thinking of you often and so happy for you!

@JamieH2000 I got 23 and me done on my own and upgraded to the medical version and downloaded my entire gene sequence from there and uploaded it to one of the sites that reads through it all and tells you all your risks, things you are predisposed for and of mutations. MTFHR is very complicated but there are two mutations that have been heavily studied, C667T and A1298C and I am homogenius for 667 which means I have 2 mutations. And DH is hetero for 667 and hetero for 1298 meaning he has one for each. Without getting too scientific (and I had an actual clinical scientist for a molecular diagnostic company who does a lot of genetic testing including MTHFR explain this to me after I posted it on a panic on my Kindara Chart so I know it's accurate and not me just being bonkers) I'm in a crazy situation where I have a 75% chance a baby would be fine but a 25% chance that an embryo could contain a triple MTHFR mutation (homo for 677, het for 1298) but they really don't know what the implications are for a triple because it's so rare, likely high risk for elevated homocysteine and associated conditions. And of course the embryo would also be unlikely to develop.
When i emailed my RE in a panic she said "There is no concrete data on the impact of MTHFR mutations on fertility. There are many hypotheses, but no definite conclusions. Some studies suggest that certain genotypes can increase aneuploidy rates, others show that they can impact the ability of normal embryos to implant. My personal thought is that MTHFR variations do likely impact fertility at various milestones and this is probably why I see at least 1 mutation in nearly all the patients I encounter. ". So the takeaway is that most couples who end up in her office...the awful infertility office have at least one mutation of MTHFR and we have a combined 4. Goooood grief!!!!
Ok sorry that was so long. It's been a crazy couple of days! I figure I'd be hetero for one and maybe DH to but being HOMO for the big one and DH Hetero For that one and the other one????? Give me a break!!!! In short I am switching to a prenatal with folate ASAP and wish I had done it forever ago!

IVF 2 - stimmed for 19 days. insanity. Had 5 follicles that looked mature but only 2 contained mature eggs the others were empty. Nothing made it to day 5
IVF 3 - added in HGH - 4 mature follicles (had some empties again) 3 made it to day 5/6 for PGS (held for testing with next retrieval
IVF 4 - Upped my dosage for the first time - Canceled 11 days into sims - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty
IVF 5 - Canceled - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty
IVF 6 - 3 mature, 2 fertalized 1 made it to day 5 and sent for PGS
Sent in IVF round 3 and 6 (4 embryos) for PGS testing and got 2 normal embryos!!! 1Boy and 1Girl. Took a little over a year to get those two embryos so demanded all sorts of test prior to attempting transfer. Did EFT, ERA and NK Cells testing.
FET#1 - Intralipid drips, Prednisone, and did a depot lupron shot before starting the FET protocol

@hopefuljj- wow, that is SO interesting. I may have to get that testing done too. I understand what they say about not being able to change your genetics, but they could at least research MTFHR more! I should probably be on folate too.. but thank goodness you found this now. And I am glad that 75% of embryos should be ok, but it is still scary and frustrating!

the nurse originally seemed very quite and sad at first when she spoke and was giving me a heart attack like it was bad news. Which I told her so I needed to breathe and then let her continue....she really freaked me out.
prog dropped a lil more to 27.5 and E2 to 197 she said that everything looks great. Is our E2 suppose to be higher??

@hopeful_mom- WOW, that is a STRONG rise for a STRONG baby! You got this!! I am not sure about progesterone except that they want it more than 15, so yours looks good! I know 10/16 feels far away, but hopefully the next two weeks will go as quick possible. Maybe plan a fun weekend trip/activity the next two weekends?

2 iui's to start - BFN
IVF 1 -3 made it do day 5! 2 5AA 1 6BB PGS results = all abnormal

IVF 4 - Upped my dosage for the first time - Canceled 11 days into sims - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty
IVF 5 - Canceled - looked like 1 follicle and we were afraid it was empty
IVF 6 - 3 mature, 2 fertalized 1 made it to day 5 and sent for PGS
Sent in IVF round 3 and 6 (4 embryos) for PGS testing and got 2 normal embryos!!! 1Boy and 1Girl. Took a little over a year to get those two embryos so demanded all sorts of test prior to attempting transfer. Did EFT, ERA and NK Cells testing.
FET#1 - Intralipid drips, Prednisone, and did a depot lupron shot before starting the FET protocol
Chemical pregnancy
FET#2 - PGS normal boy - BFN
Natural pregnancy - cycle following the FET2???? Miscarriage at 8 weeks. viability scan had shown an enlarged yolk sac so I had been warned that it was likely not chromosonally normal
DEIVF cycle - picked a donor who is willing to be open! Her cycle resulted in in 4 PGS Normal embryos
1st transfer - chemical pregnancy
2nd transfer - success, May 17 2020 due date!

JamieH2000 I wish it was that simple! I swear this is going to be worse then the tww if thats possible!! I don;t know.

Back for # 2!
Had the official beta BFN today, but knowing in advance was definitely better for me. If I'd still had strong hope and got a BFN I think I might have crumbled. This also reaffirmed my testing all the way from trigger strategy for me again next time. I need that to avoid a shock.
@jamieh2000 my next appointment is a week today Thursday 12th and I'm well armed with questions and suggestions and feeling hopeful for my RE being open to changes as he wanted to see me before I O which sounds good for trying priming :-) I'm armed with all the protocols tried by the Sep IVF group as we had a lot of multi cycle ladies including @hopeful_mom and it was also good to see you and your RE do sometimes need to learn from a few cycles to find the sweet spot, so I'm ready to get back on that horse!
Where are you with your new donor now? Will you test the embies and do a frozen transfer?
@hopefuljj oh yes I've heard all the beat Infertility podcasts! I've also worked my way through the ones from creatingafamily too- plus some British and Australian ones! I have a 2 hour commute each day so I get through podcasts pretty fast!
And please come join us in November!!! I was @hopeful_mom's strongest supporter (and spreadsheet wizard) in the sep group
@hopeful_mom have you joined the June BMB yet? I need to know where to stalk to see your US pic ;-)
