This is a special check-in this week. *warnings* I am tagging all DOR grads in. This is to get a head count and gather.
Current DORbies: What's going on with everyone this week? Come and update us!
And please, everyone send all their love to babyhopes this week. She needs us right now.
All-DOR: And please do come chat about the future of this check-in!
One of the best things that ever happened to me on this site was ronniesgirl's creation of this DOR community. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I felt like such a loser when I couldn't seem to even make it to egg retrieval let alone get dozens of eggs like everyone around me. I wanted to quit IVF and I wanted to quit life and I wanted to quit the boards. There just isn't a good place for you when you are the IVF outlier and even your RE wants to give up on you.
That THIS check-in exists and thrives gives me all the feels. My DOR girls mean everything to me. Without this place I wouldn't have learned about all the protocols and tweaks and tricks and how much experimentation matters. It is our Island of Misfit Ovaries!
I'd really like the IF community to stick together but it's even more important to me to keep the DOR community together because I don't think another check-in/place like this exists on the internet. The only thing I've been ever able to find is the High FSH board but it's not really active. Basically any DOR advice out there is on individual blogs.
So, let's hear from everyone.
Tags coming in my next post.
