We have been TTC for over four years now. The first year was just having fun and trying to see what happens. During that time my DH’s mom was diagnosed with cancer and passed away. I don’t really consider that year part of our TTC journey because we had so much other stuff going on. The second year was spent with a far away RE doing testing. My DH has low morphology so the far away doctor wanted to do a SA four months apart in hopes of seeing improvement. Such a big waste of time – we then found an awesome RE closer to home. During years three and four we have done 10 IUI’s, 1 IVF, and 1 FET. Two of the IUI’s worked. The seventh IUI I miscarried at 10 weeks and the 10th IUI I miscarried at six weeks. IVF resulted in four fabulous grade A embryos. Two were transfered for the IVF and the last two for FET. Both resulted in a BFN. Jan 2011 we got our BFP with IVF#2 but lost our baby Gavin at 18.5 weeks. We took the next 6 months to heal emotionally. In December 2011 we transferred one frozen embryo. It resulted in a BFP! Due in August! I hope you enjoy following my story and don’t be shy! Tell me about yours!
That is the ONLY thing I can hold over women's heads that I don't have to do that test - although I'd rather take the stupid test than have diabetes. ;)
Anyways, sorry to hear you have to do the longer one. Take some good reading material. If it comes back positive, it is not the end of the world (we all know what the end of the world is). You can do it for this sweet little baby!
I hear ya, sister! I just completed my 3 hour test last week. It wasn't as bad as I had feared it might be. I just took my Ipad with me so I could read, play games, or watch a couple of TV shows we'd downloaded while I waited (and then waited, and waited some more). Best wishes for passing "scores"!
Bummer indeed! Sorry to hear you have to take the 3 hour but hopefully you'll pass that one with flying colors!
ReplyDeleteThat sucks! I hope the 3 hour goes better and you're all good. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!
