Hello TWW

Image
By
Soooooo NICE to finally be in the TWW! I hate waiting to ovulate, and especially when it takes 27/28 freaking days to do so! =/

Feeling pretty good today- positive, and confident about our BD coverage...starting to get post O symptoms which is good, makes me believe those follies had eggs that released, so yay!

Here is my trigger pics for today- Tests go like this:
Top- 12 hrs post trig
2nd- 1 day past trig
3rd- 2 days past trig
4th- 3 days past trig
Its starting to fade  out now- which is about normal for me...Hopefully it wont go totally away, and just swing right into a blaring BFP in about 8 days!! =)

Oh yea, and I am not starting my progesterone till 5 dpo this time...Braverman said that starting it too early can swing the lining into being too luteal too soon, and cause issues with implantation...Which I thought was interesting to hear, but so totally different than the typical RE/OB protocols for progesterone supplementation in IVF/IUI and even natural cycles. typically the latest you hear it being started is the "3 dpo" rule of thumb- or if you do IUI/IVF you start the day of trigger- But anyway, I am willing to give it a shot- Heck, the least amount of days I have to poke my ass and leak progesterone out my vag, the better! NO complaints here!! 
=)

So far, I have had NO side effects from the neupogen. I do feel the prednisone- but at 40 mgs a day, who wouldn't? Its not unbearable though- I am adjusting well. So far so good- we will see what the next few days bring...

I got a message from Braverman's Nurse to fill out a form I submitted to the Amgen safety net foundation med program for Neupogen help- Hopefully they will help me out, since my ins denied the IVIG and Neupogen...Otherwise, I have to hope and pray this Medpro RX program I signed up for (supposedly can get me Neupogen for 20 bucks a month- income based help program) isn't a scam....Ugh the joys of trying to get medications not covered my insurance that cost a freaking fortune!

What you should know if you are considering a tubal reversal

By
Its been 8 years. 8 years since we took a trip to NC to see DR. Montieth in Chapel Hill. I remember being so excited. I had this picture in my head of how it was going to go during, and after it all. For those of you who don't know, I had my tubes tied in 2009, after the birth of my 3rd, directly following a traumatic still birth. It was a decision made out of fear and trauma, not an informed decision. I ended up having adverse health issues (PTLS) after, and was desperate to find a solution. I stumbled upon a private chat room with others also struggling. Several had gone for a reversal, and seemed to feel so MUCH better after. I had already seen my doctor umpteen times, and they offered no solutions, and insinuated it was "in my head".... I saw all of these ladies posting the day OF surgery saying that they felt relief! I was like, "Yes, this is it!!"... So we saved the 6 Grand, and went and did the reversal. I was PUMPED. I started a blog, YouTube video and F

Some statistics on Miscarriage

By
Miscarriage Statistics Overall miscarriage risk is 17-22%; risk after gestational sac is visible is 12-15% Miscarriage is one of the most frequent problems in human pregnancy. The most widely accepted definition is that proposed by the World Health Organization in 1977. The incidence among clinical pregnancies  (a pregnancy that is confirmed by both high levels of hCG and ultrasound confirmation of a gestational sac)  is about 12-15%, but including early pregnancy losses it is 17-22%. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11950476 After heartbeat is detected, risk of miscarriage is 9.4% at 6wks; 4.2% at 7wks; 1.5% at 8wks; 0.5% at 9wks To estimate the risk of miscarriage among asymptomatic women after a prenatal visit between 6 and 11 weeks of gestation where proof of fetal viability of a singleton was obtained by office ultrasonography at the same visit. METHODS: Those recruited were 697 asymptomatic women who attended their first antenatal visit between 6 (+2 days) and 11(+

Trust & New Pajamas

By
So, a blog comment I got the other day from wonderful woman, and awesome supporter of mine, caused me to pause a bit, and kind of evaluate some things about my faith and relationship with God. Which I truly appreciate, because she was kind and not judgy in her words...And I felt God gently nudge my heart each time I read the comment over... I felt my face start to burn with emotion, as tears welled up in my eyes...And I finally admitted to myself... I do NOT trust God...At least not fully, like I once did... But I desperately WANT to be at that point again....Trusting fully...And filled with peace... I walked into this journey,  to try for one more, 100% SURE , God was calling us/giving us the desire  to have another baby...I/we were, 100% certain we would walk away with a baby in our arms...As a matter of fact, I would have bet my LIFE on it. Now, 3 years later, I am broken, weary, and so utterly soul shattered, that I simply cannot "look" God in the eyes...H
