    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.

    Embryo Transfer tomorrow!!!

    Today's fertilization report was more promising. The 2 that fertilized are 3 cell with no fragmentation AND we got 2 others that fertilized. They are 3 cell with 10% fragmentation. Anything with less then 15% fragmentation is good. Although I only wanted to put back 2 I'm taking the extra 2 as a sign that I might need an extra one so we will be putting back 3....please no triplets!!

    Thanks for your words of encouragement and ongoing support. I will try to update on Monday when Ivan "the warden" isn't looking. I will be on bedrest for 3 days or as Ivan put it on "lock down".

    I'm feeling much better about this. I will be hopeful until the very end.

    Glad you updated and that things are progressing. Crossing my fingers that they will continue to divide and you will have great quality embies. Lots of luck and you'll be PUPO tomorrow.

    Liz,
    Such great news!!! By now you have already had the ET, so you are PUPO!! I know you are not using that term this time, but I am very hopeful. I hope the next 12 days go really fast : )

    That's a relief, Liz. Your two (and two spares) sound good. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
