    • About Me

      I have been married to my wonderful husband for 3 years. We have been trying to conceive for about the same time as we both assumed we had problems. We have done 4 IUI's with injectables with no success and had 2 IVF cycle's cancelled due to poor response. We are getting ready to start IVF # 3 in January 2009. IVF # 3 was a success! Expecting a little girl in October of 2009. We have a dog, Sadie, that we love and treat as our child. We live in suburb of Kansas City and enjoy taking vacations in tropical locations!

      Hi Shanny! Thanks for the support - 2ww sucks! One more week - not even...6 days! How are you? Little Sophia is just beautiful! I hope you are loving every minute of it!

    • Thanks

      From albgray Tuesday

      Hi honey, I remembered your FSH going up. The good news is that the cyst is gone. We're doing an OI cycle and gearing up for IVF in January, providing that all the stars align between now and then. Sophia is so beautiful (seriously, not all babies are that beautiful!). I know mommyhood is not all bliss and fun, I'm sure there are some real overwhelming moments. You are a strong, courageous woman and no matter how challenging it might be (at times), after all you've been through to get her here, you can handle anything that comes your way. I got the announcement, love the photography. Even DH said, "that tutu picture is cute." LOL! :)

      Funny face for you! I read your journal entry and I love the honesty. I must admit I still want my baby in nine months. Your daughter is beautiful just like you. Things will get easier mommy. Have a happy Thursday!
