I haven't updated my Blog in a few weeks and I have a lot of things to add! I started BCP to 5th of February & got my AF exactly 5 days after finishing the 21 pills. I suffered from awful nausea & tiredness for the first 2 weeks on the pills...

I went in for my second beta this morning, but I'm not too worried. I just did another test (havent done one for a few days) and the line came up so quickly and dark - much quicker than the one I did on Saturday.. Looking good! My first beta was 143...

I've been reading a very interesting book, Heroes, Rogues and Lovers by James McBride Dabbs with Mary Godwin Dabbs, on testosterone. One interesting finding in the book is that people with high testosterone have more sex overall and have more sex...

Hooray!! Both for the girls, and for me! So ends EIGHT WEEKS of home bed rest. So today's big "celebration" was to spend the morning out shopping for final baby stuff. lol Although I'm allowed up now, I am still very weak, so have to...

my dad passed away. I was in the midst of my fresh ivf/pgd cycle and was an emotional basketcase. My dad lived 12 hrs away so I had to travel there was was there for 1 1/2 wks before he passed away. I am greatful for that. I remember thinking if I should...

I can't believe I get to write this post. I am 9dp5dt and we've had positives consistently since 5dp5dt.. starting to sink in that I am really pregnant!! Everyday my BFPs are getting stronger!! I even got a positive on a digital yesterday. Of...

I can hardly believe our twins made it this far. I am still finding the prospect of raising twins unbelieveably daunting, but like anything else...I am sure we will make it work. The room has been decorated, the showers have been thrown, and the closet...

Just a quick update.... I had a baby shower yesterday and was so excited to get a bunch of pink goodies! Unfortunately, I'm (again) fighting a cold! I think the cold is winning this time for sure. Even though I felt like total crap I sucked it up...

So i'm on my last day of bedrest today and looking forward to being up and around (and packing to go home) tomorrow. I realized I hadn't updated this since my day 3 report so here it is.. On the morning of day 5 I had an email from my nurse confirming...

Okay, so we're 32 weeks today! We are now officially past the windows of largest risks associated with prematurity. Next goal - 34 weeks! At that point, I will be allowed off bedrest. Which will be great, as I have so much left to do to prepare. lol...

One of the questions that comes up on the boards all the time is "does swaying work?" These are my thoughts on the subject. I've read the studies in the FAQ, I've read other information available here and elsewhere online, I've followed...

Today's progress report is in and all six embies are still growing, which is wonderful news.. We currently have; 2 x 8 cell embies 1 x 7 cell emby 3 x 4 cells embies All are grade b. So now we wait and see how many get to day 5, and hopefully transfer...

We find out tomorrow how our 6 little embies are doing. At this stage we are still not doing PGD but our RE wants us to wait if possible and do a 5 day blast transfer.. I guess we'll see how they are in the morning and go from there.. _______________________...

Out of the 24 eggs we havested, only 9 were mature and only 6 were fertlized. I'm disappointed and even though I know intellectually we're not out of the game, emotionally I need to prepare for this cycle to be another failure...
