Last night James went out for drinks with a friend of his, whose wife is pregnant now after years of infertility and a miscarriage.  The friend apparently invited James out because he needed to talk...

Hi, all, I wanted to let you know that I'm feeling better today.  Maybe I'll sink in the afternoon again, but now I know where McDonalds is a couple blocks away, so I'm not too far from a soft...

This ache is just unbearable.  It pushes on my throat and stomach and tear ducts.  I'm trying to do my work, but I just want to throw up.  How could my brother be saying words like "11 weeks"? ...

Today is the first major day of Aunt Flo, and as I looked at the red water in the toilet, I wondered if my babies were still in me or were in the water there.  I hated to flush the toilet.  Does...

Yesterday was supposed to be the family birthday party for my brother, my mom, and me.  But now that David (my brother) broke the news, I was just too sad to go.  So I called Mom crying yesterday...

I've been in what my therapist aptly calls denial for a few days now.  I've been trying to look on the bright side, take advantage of my renewed ability to survive paint fumes and hard labor. And...

Hi, my friends, Thanks for all your kind words and thoughts recently.  Last night I took a HPT and it was negative.  I had just kind-of bounded into the bathroom after work and P'edOAS.  For some...

This weekend four sad things happened: 1.  I've been pushing James to interview for a new job, or at least just go and see what's out there.  It's been so scary and hard for him (his family thinks...

Boy, I've just had this wash of neediness today.  Near lunch my officemates were both on the phone, talking too loud, so I went downstairs to get away.  I bought this book and went to sit on a...

Okay, now I'm not sleepy any more.  I don't feel weird at all.  I'm so sad.  I remember this feeling from all my previous tries, natural and not.  There's the point after ovulation when I think...

Hi, folks, I am sleepy, sleepy, sleepy.  I got up from bedrest on Friday, only to fall back in bed within a few hours.  Saturday I popped back into action, only to fade by 2:00 pm.  And then...

Has it really been this long since I wrote on this journal? We had our embryo transfer on Thursday.  The doctor called me that morning and told me I had one early blastocyst and two...

Last night I dreamed about how I'd write the lyrics to a lullaby on my blog (www.AchievingConceiving.blogspot.com).  And I got up really early and took a bath, knowing it would be just showers for...

We found out yesterday morning that our eleven eggs (nine mature) had rendered six embryos.  James put on his machoest face and said, "Well, I guess my boys got the job done."  As far as we know,...

After a week of watching the Oocyte Follies, and getting concerned that there were only six follicles, I got good news today.  They pulled eleven eggs out of me.  So much better! I had a great...
