Day 3 Update
5/28/2013

So first thing in the morning....ok around noon :-) I faxed what little medical info I had to my local RE and they in turn faxed me a blood request to redo all testing. I requested all previous info from New Hope but that will take 10 days....just great. Anyway next week I have to do a Saline Sonogram for the RE to see if my uterus is fine.  Sadly my insurance ends at the end of this month so I was happy to do it but nervous it cannot be done...we shall see

Blood work-I was so excited..NOT.. I wasn't, I was mad, angry I am here again, angry that 2 years ago this very time I was gearing up to go to NYC to sign papers and get on a mini-ivf journey.........I held back tears, filling 10-12 vials of blood is cruel.....eff u infertility. But I am back on the journey....isn`t that what this is all about? My veins were shot for months after that cycle, my DH was worried and hated seeing me in pain, but here I am again, back on the road, this one with more needles than the one before. Our need is so great,we desperately want a family..he would allow up to 3 to be transferred if we have the chance....actually i told him no....as much as we want this 2 is standard and the max that we should transfer back.

Positively Speaking

Anyway I am blessed once more with Free Ivf which is surreal. We do not live in a mandated state so it isnt offered but we get one more shot at this, and we are one step closer so I will be glad, rejoice and remain positive.I asked for a breakthough for 2013, I just pray this is it.

On another note-I am trying to loose the extra 20 pounds gained grrrr, started ligthly excercising daily, taking prenatals,and now royal jelly. I didnt do anything crazy before but Iiked what I read about its effect, will stop if it makes the cycle crazy....we shall see.

Am back...IVF take #2

It has been 13 months since I have updated this blog and said goodbye, quite frankly am not sure why I didnt delete it but glad I did not. :-). Excuse any and all ramblings..as I am still in disbelief about this whole thing.

5/2012-5/2013 Quickie Update
So what's happening in my life...? Well after the D&C I was really depressed but since I was wedding planning I occupied my brain with ALL things wedding, sure I had my moments of sadness but life had to go on. I got married to my bestfriend 2013 and prayed for a break through for 2013. Truth be told my faith has waivered but thank goodness my hubbys did not. I started a new job and just enjoying this new chapter in my life.,.if you recall my previous posts I mentioned hubby  as DH for Dear Heart and not Dear Husband as commonly referred...so we never gave up hope BUT knew my insurance did not cover IVF but decided to consult with a local clinic that offers 3 tries for $9900 no meds of course..this is with the intention of possibly financing the cost, while at the consultation the nurse advised that twice a year the RE offers 2 seminars for infertile couples about IVF and if u attend u win a free consultation as well as 1 free IVF cycle with ICSI. As u have it the first of 2 would be in a week...we got there late, hubby annoyed because am Always late (lol)...yeah even to our wedding anyway lots of couples....we listened, asked questions, turned in our form and thought nothing of it...matter of fact. FORGOT about it and then a week ago 5/17/2013 on our way to dinner we got a call...

"Congratulations you are the winners of our 2013 free IVF raffle"...We...ok I screamed and kept saying thank you God....thank you God....we cycle August..Yaaahoooo......a second chance, we feel like we won the lotto...

More to come...
