Hi all! You may know me from 3T/IF, PAIF, SAIF, Jan15.... We have been trying to conceive our second child since May 2015 when my cycle resumed after the birth of our son last January. He's 14 months now, and is the best thing ever.
After 11 cycles on our own, we went back to the RE. This first cycle of Follistim + TI was just a warm up cycle, fine tuning the dosage before we threw lots of money at more IUIs (DS took 4 cycles with the RE to conceive, 3 of them IUIs).
I tested out my trigger, and though it's still squinters, it's definitely there! Beta is Monday, but I am feeling good about this. And I am glad it's still squinters because we triggered with 4-6 mature follicles, so hoping for only one (or at least no more than two) babies!
Due date is November 22nd! Woot! Two days before Thanksgiving! I told DH he needs to prep Thanksgiving (my favorite holiday) the weeks before so all we have to do is cook a turkey. Because I will be damned if I don't have my Thanksgiving! (Watch, I will end up going two days late and delivering on Thanksgiving - I imagine hospital turkey isn't awesome haha)

My sister (34 years old now) was born the day after Thanksgiving (around 4:30 am), and my mom still talks about how she was in the hospital in labor and missed Thanksgiving dinner, but my grandmother brought leftovers to the hospital later that day.
Congratulations !!!!! I was also born early on Thanksgiving morning, my mom was pretty pissed she was missing it and made my grandmother bring her food.
Welcome! I hadn't even thought about thanksgiving yet! My edd is early nov, but still something to think about with a newborn. I'll pray for good turkey for you
calindi congratulations!! And wow, I didn't realize Thanksgiving was on the early side this year.
My due date for my N13 baby was 2 days after T'giving (11/30). I was so convinced I was going to have the baby early or on time, we made no holiday plans and turned down offers from friends (and we were living far from family). When it became obvious there was not going to be a Thanksgiving baby, I was scrambling to get a turkey and all the trimmings b/c I did NOT want to be deprived
