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.

1st surprise -

I met with the Dr yesterday and had an u/s. Ovaries are not swollen and are back to normal. It looks as if I O'd last week so she thinks that the bleeding was irregular bleeding and not AF....SO....I can proceed with a fresh cycle. I start BCP next week for 3 weeks and then on Oct. 13 start stims. ER should be around the week of 10/24. I am so excited!!

2nd surprise -

Ivan surprised me yesterday with a gift ... the bottom of a bikini and stated I would need it for our vacation. I found that odd since it's cool in London and we won't be near a beach. He then told me we are going to Barcelona and France!! Barcelona had been my 1st choice but I couldn't find anything around the time we wanted to go so I figured we could go back to London. I am so excited about this!! So next week I will be having some much needed drinks on the beach...but with my top on :)

When Nature Is Not Enough
IVF will hopefully bring us the miracle we are waiting for.

We've gone 2x to Madrid and Andalucia, last year we also went to Portugal. I've been to Paris but this time we will go to the South of France. We tend to go places that are nearby. I hate tours so I just buy a Fodors book and travel on my own. I'm so excited about going, I thought this was going to be the first year we didn't go away. Wish you could fit in my suitcase but now it would be two. C commented at 9:01 PM~ Liz - I am so excited for you. A brilliant vacation to relax with a firm plan in mind. Way to go!! I'll have everything crossed for you. Have a fab time. Anonymous commented at 10:51 PM~ What wonderful surprises!! I'm glad you will be able to start soon and I'm very jealous about your trip.
