I'll admit that I'm still figuring out this new site (I traveled to Austin Fri-Mon and didn't get a chance to check in much). Heck, I still haven't uploaded a profile pic or done my Sig! But I'm excited to keep all of our old weekly threads going here

I am thankful that I got the transfer I was hoping for. It's a positive step in my career.
Super thankful for MH. Despite a couple of quirks (not liking the term infertility) he's been on board for this whole crazy process from step one. He's done all the tests without hesitation. Come to all appointments and read all the books (ok, one book). He even offered to come with me to my OB appointment today. (Really no, honey.)

I'm totally dense and missed this and started another. I'll try to combine/delete the other one. theholmanherd do you want to move your thankful over here?
For starters I am so grateful for all you ladies who immediately recreated our community in a new home in the wake of all the craziness from the other place. What we all go through is difficult enough, so it's so nice to know that I could still rely on all of you to be here for me!
I am thankful that my doctor is back from her almost 3 months off. I never really felt as comfortable with the other doctors in the practice, and certainly didn't connect with them the same I did my doctor. So, I know she's not a miracle worker, but I feel so much better knowing she's back on my case!

Turn that one into a random thread, like TTGP used to do with dup threads LOL
I am thankful for the opportunity to rebuild our community. I'm also thankful for moving soon, but I just hope everything goes smoothly.

I'm thankful that in spite of the drama on "the other place" we've all found another place and kept our community intact (although we miss Rumbera like crazy!)
I'm also thankful to have a job - even though I'm extremely frustrated with our management right now, I keep reminding myself of that!

dancerspose - No worries! I'm glad I'm not the only one who wants to continue all our old threads! I don't remember seeing you on 3T ...were you on the IF board? Or had a different name? Or maybe I just completely missed you! In either case, it's nice to meet you over here on "the dark side".

wanderlust I was on 3T as shafwilson. I was never active on the IF board. Completely independent of all the craziness, I had decided to change my SN for privacy purposes. Guess it just worked out that I got to start my new identity in a new place!

I am incredibly thankful for my DH. We've been going through a lot with his stupid family and our business wasn't doing that great for a while there. Stuff like that stresses me out big time and even though it's hard for him too, he always puts me and my feelings first.
I am also thankful for all of you ladies! Thankful that we stuck together throughout all the craziness of last week and thankful that we were all able to come together to support Naria.
I'm thankful to finally make Member status, and for that I'm thankful for dancerspose's extra thread.
I'm also thankful that MH realized how stressed I've been this week (albeit it was largely caused by him...) and has been REALLY, really good to me this week.
Alsoalso thankful to have an AWESOME RE who moved his schedule around to accommodate MH's cold feet and my impatience BOTH. That's a good Dr.
*All Welcome* Me (30) and MH (30) Dx: DOR, MTHFR + 1% Morph TTC since Nov '11 Nov '12 - MC at 6w6d Nov '14 - AFC 10, FSH 8, AMH 0.84, Morph 1% Mar '15 - IVF#1/ICSI, EPP: 7R, 5M, 4F, 3DT of 2x8 cell, grade 4 = BFN July '16 - IVF#2/ICSI, EPP & DHEA - OHIP-funded SET

@dancerspose - Ahh that's it. I remember you by your other name! That's awesome that you are starting completely fresh with a new name and board I guess I did the same thing now that I think about it! I happened to change mine (from EastBayBride508) before moving over

I'm thankful for MH. As much as this process has been stressful, he has been one to roll with the punches and puts up with a lot from me. I feel blessed to have found someone who can pu up with my stuff and still manage to kiss me goodnight every night.

I'm thankful that DH and I are in the financial position to do IVF and that his insurance helped us out with the lifetime max. Talked with one of my good friends last week and she was going to the same clinic as I was until she had to stop because they can't afford to move forward with the treatments. My heart breaks for them.
I'm also thankful that my appt. went smoothly and there is no delay from my surgery last week for my FET coming up in 3 weeks.
Lastly, thankful that my DH has been really supportive this week through my awesome mood swings. He is thankful that I get to decrease the Lupron tomorrow!

I am thankful that we were able to switch to my husband's insurance which has excellent infertility coverage and that I can do my monitoring bloodwork and ultrasounds at the hospital where I work instead of having to travel to the RE's office which is 1 hr and 15 min away each time.
Yes! These things! Also, all of the hurdles I've had to jump through in my life to get to where I am today. I wouldn't be nearly as strong through the IF storm if it weren't for all the crap I've already been through.
Me: 32, PCOS Him: 30, 4.5% morph, TTC: 10/11/12 After 5 failed Clomid cycles and 3 failed Femara cycles with HCG triggers, IVF #1 w/ICSI April 2015 resulted in a BFP! Our little Newt was born January 2016!
