    About Me

    Name: Liz
    Location: New York

    I'm 37 and have been happily married since Sept. 2002. Ivan is truly my companion in life. Our TTC journey has felt like a never ending roller coaster ride. We had an ectopic PG in Dec. 04 and in April 05 found out my IF is due to tubal abnormality. We were told IVF was our only hope. July 05 we did IVF # 1 and it was a chemical PG. We did IVF # 2 in Oct. 05 and it was a BFN. In Jan. 06 we did a combined fresh and frozen embryo transfer and it was a BFN. We were determined not to give up our dream of having a baby. IVF # 4 was in April 06. The cycle worked like a charm and on December 20, 2006 we were blessed with Hannah and Matthew.

    I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your support. It is so hard to find people who truly understand what and how I am feeling. I’ve tried talking to friends but sometimes its best not to even discuss it. In the last couple of weeks I’ve "toned down" how much I’ve been sharing. If they ask I try to respond in a positive manner and go on to another topic. In reality I’m bursting inside wanting to talk.

    You ladies are wonderful…your words of encouragement have been very comforting. Although I don’t personally know you, you all have a special place in my heart. It has been great to find people who understand what I am going through.

    Thanks for your supportive comments and for sharing my journey with me.

    Bev...thanks for being my one "fertie" friend who has truly tried to understand me and has been very empathetic. Thank you for listening and for always being sensitive to my feelings. I will miss you when you move.

    Catherine…I’m so glad we got paired up as prayer partners on the old board. You have been so understanding and supportive. I’m grateful for your friendship and I’m so happy that you are pregnant and everything is going well.

    Daniela...thanks for listening and your constant support and of course for always being there when I need to pig out with "our" comfort food. I know you will be a great Titi.


    Ally…thanks for your encouraging words…"chin up grasshopper". I know things haven’t been easy for you and I hope they will soon get better. I pray this is your month.

    Heather…thanks for sharing your IVF journey and for your support. Its great to know if I have a question there’s someone who understands. I’m so happy your pregnancy is going well and I pray that it continues.

    Jenn…thanks for your support. I’m so happy that your pregnancy is going well and I hope the cysts won’t cause any problems. May you continue to have a happy and healthy pregnancy.

    Jenna…thanks for caring and being so understanding. I'm glad that we have been corresponding...I feel such a connection. I hope things get better for you and you will be blessed very soon. Looking forward to talking to you soon.

    Lesley…thanks for your support and encouragement. You always find a way to make me smile…thanks. I’m sorry for how you have been feeling and I pray things will get better soon. You are a strong woman, very determined and you will overcome this…remember we’re here for you.
