I am so happy to be here, I thought this day would never come!
I'm 35, DH is 40. We've been TTC for over 4 years now. At first, I just went off birth control and our philosophy was whatever happens, happens. After awhile we moved to the ovulation kits and charts. Last January I finally got enough guts to talk to my doctor during my pap smear since we were not getting pregnant and she recommended me to an RE.
We did all the tests and bloodwork and it was determined that the first course of action was surgery since I had pollups and endometrosis. After the surgery, we did 3 rounds of IUI's and they were all negative. My insurance wanted another 3 rounds before moving me to IVF but my doctor appealed it and the insurance came around and approved IVF. Shocked the heck outta me!
Our first cycle was in December, the plan was to do a 5 day transfer for 1 and test and freeze the rest. Due to the fear of OHSS, the 5 day transfer was canceled and that worked out in our favor since our 3 frosties are day 6 and 7.
My FET was 2/12 and I received my very first BFP on 2/26! Beta 1 = 1648, Beta 2=3409 and Beta 3 came back today at 6653.
My first ultrasound is this coming Thursday, I will be 5 weeks along at that point.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
