My Treatment History
9/2002- Got married to the love of my life and began trying to have a baby. Stopped birth control after taking for several years.
1/2003- Went to GYN after months of temping and never getting AF. I was told it is normal for the body to take months to "get back to normal" after being on birth control for so long and sent home.
4/2003-Still never had AF and was obviously not ovulating. Saw and RE and was diagnosed as "the poster child for PCOS." Put on Metformin.
4/2003-8/2003- Met did asolutely nothing to help me ovulate. Saw a new RE who put me on clomid.
8/2003-8/2005- Several cycles of clomid/IUI and Femara/IUI only to ovulate three times. RE Recommended moving straight to IVF.
8/2005-8/2007- Save/raise money for IVF.
8/2007-11/2007- Insurance company denies referral for IVF. Insists I do at least two cycles of injectables/IUI before moving on to IVF. Doctor not happy but agrees to move forward.
12/2007- First Injectable/IUI cycle begins.
12/29/07- IUI with injectables #1-BFN
1/16/08- Need to "sit out" due to two 4 cm ovarian cysts.
2/20/08- U/S & B/W for beginning IVF- Beta came back at 9-told it was likely a chemical pregnancy
2/22/08- Beta came back at zero, confirmed chemical pregnancy
3/13/08- Started BCPs for first IVF Cycle.
3/19/08- Mock Embryo Transfer
3/31/08- Started Lupron
4/06/08- AF arrived
4/8/08- Lupron eval, E2 level came back elevated (78), postponed starting stims.

You guys are really cute!
I used to live in Baltimore (1997-2001), but somehow I never actually went to the zoo. I don't remember why.
I'm at 4w6d and I feel absolutely nothing in terms of pg symptoms. However, my mid-section is gigantic due to pretty bad OHSS. (in fact, I had 2 liters of fluid removed last Thursday). Maybe you have a touch of that.
When's your ultrasound, anyway?
You be nice to yourself!
I love the pics!
Thanks for the pics!! Continuing to keep you in my prayers!!
Is it just me, or does your DH actually look like a turtle a little?! JK! Looks like you guys had a fun time.
Shut up, you look beautiful! :) The pics are so cute!
BTW, I hope you don't mind the fact that now that I've found you I am stalking your blog! LOL
I think the pic of you is so cute! :)
