Hi everyone! Old-timer here just popping in to see what’s going on.
Cookie – your little Elijah is so precious, that put a huge smile on my face this morning! Could not be happier for you :)
And I am VERY impressed by the BFP boom that’s been going on around here. Congrats mini, splodge, and could!
Hope you are cheering up, Jelly. We put one our kitties to sleep a few months ago and we miss him terribly.
Happy belated dulcet -- hope you are well!
puple, metformin really helped me with insulin resistance (blood sugar was normal) and losing weight, so I have my fingers crossed it will be work for you.
lil I am late to this part of the conversation, but I know what a kick in the face it is to get that infertility “label.” When I was handed my referral, I also got a piece of paper listing nearby clinics that said INFERTILITY on the top in huge, red letters. Not exactly the gentlest, these doctors, right? The road was long, and it was difficult, but it was worth it. We are 16 weeks today! Stay positive.
I am finally feeling excited four months in. Going through fertility treatments really screws with your mind -- I had a hard time shaking the anxiety and the shock of actually getting pregnant after three rounds of IVF and a frozen transfer. I think I’m finally feeling solid enough to go join the grads thread, but I had to check in with you shaggers first. This thread was my home for nearly two years and the support really kept me sane. Little red is doing well; we had a great ultrasound a few weeks ago and got to see him or her moving and growing brains and everything!
I’ll keep visiting and rooting you all on. xoxo
