    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 just got the call...I am so excited. I will give myself the shot tonight at 11:30. My ER is scheduled for Wednesday at 9:30.

    Okay, I'm starting to feel hopeful now.

    Funny I was just on the phone 5 minutes ago getting info on another clinic for cycle #4.

    Hope this works!!!!!!

    Glad that you're feeling more hopeful. I do the same thing you do - in the middle of one treatment I am already planning my next step. During my IVF cycle I was researching donor eggs and adoption. I think that I do this so if what I am doing doesn't work, I know that I still have other options. I didn't feel hopeful - AT ALL during my IVF cycle. I think these are just ways that we protect ourselves.

    Best of luck!

    I'm sorry I haven't posted much lately, but I have been lurking to see how you're doing.

    I'm glad you're triggering tonight, and also glad to see that hope is finding her way back to you!

    I hope you get to have at least a night or two without any shots. I'm praying that the retrieval goes well. It sounds like you have a great number of follicles!
