    • About Me

      I'm 31 living in beautiful NE Pennsylvania. I've been very blessed in life w/ a DH of 4 years, great family & friends & our 3 Labrador Retrievers. We've been ttc since November '05 & this is not something I even thought would happen. I wanted to reach out to people like us...I need to hear we aren't alone & there is hope. I'm trying to remain positive. I know that God has a plan for our lives & its not in our time but in his. I feel my faith has been helping me to remain sane during this crazy time.

      From mariad1972 August 16

      Thanks! We're actually doing a private adoption where we retained an adoption attorney instead of an agency. We weighed our options on both routes and, for us, it just seemed right to search ourselves for someone contemplating an adoption plan. It's definitely more work on my part going this route,but I don't know if I could have just sat around waiting for an agency to find a match. AT least this way, I know from the first phone call all there is to know about each situation and am involved in everything. I'm very confident when it's meant to be, it'll happen. How's things with you?

    • Close Infertility

      My husband & I have been married for 4 years. We have been TTC for 2 1/2 years. It is very frustrating. I am seeing an RE & trying to remain positive. Taking things one day at a time is really helping me a lot on this journey. Infertility can be such an emotional roller coaster! My faith is what is getting me through this!

      Treatments

      Adoption Considering
      We are both very open to adoption....
      Artificial Insemination Not Working
      IUI #1 (2/18) failed. IUI#2(3/12)also failed...focusing on staying positive!
      Clomid Somewhat Helpful
      I am ovulating when I'm taking clomid but still no BFP. Progesterone levels are higher. I completed my 6th cycle on Clomid. Taking this med is like being on an emotional roller coaster! The hot flashes are not too pleasant either! I do have to say though after the first few months it gets easier.
      Crying Working / Worked
      It's helping me deal w/ my emotions.
      Folic Acid Too Soon to Tell
      ? I know I take this but I thought it was to help for when I do get pregnant.
      Follistim Working / Worked
      Follistim did its job but we just aren't pregnant YET!
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Working / Worked
      I was so scared of this injection with out a reason. I didn't find it to be painful at all. It worked just hasn't resulted in pregnancy YET!
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
      No blockages reported. I was fine right after the test thanks to Advil but as soon as that wore off I was in pain.
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
      My results are consistenly the same...negative when I used the over the counter sticks. I recently purchased a First Response Fertility Monitor. I love it! It takes the guess work out of it!
