What was different?

December 2, 2018 pinotgrigioandinfertility2 Comments

Egg retrieval #3, attempt #5-7, what was different? Why was this one successful, both in our highest quantity of embryos and in a twin pregnancy? It was supposed to be the first of 3-5 embryo banking cycles - all with genetic testing, gearing up for back to back frozen transfers until one worked. It ended… Continue reading What was different?

Fix You

May 5, 2018 pinotgrigioandinfertility7 Comments

For those of you who are well-versed in my musical taste, you're well aware that I generally despise Coldplay. I find Chris Martin to be unbearable and their music to be unoriginally maudlin.

Expectations are the devil

So, another post that I haven't had the heart to write. I apologize in advance that I have back to back terrible posts. So, for all of you, I will start with something positive!

The Day After (IUI #2)

So, the day after IUI #2, I went back to the doctor's office for the ultrasound to confirm ovulation. I'm feeling pumped, slightly nervous, and ready to get good news.  I get there, go back to the room, undress from the waist down, and wait for a few minutes. The friend who told me about… Continue reading The Day After (IUI #2)

Well, as soon as I possibly could, I started taking pregnancy tests. They were all negative (including the blood test), but I thought there was still a possibility!! Until there wasn't and I started my period. I don't think I knew until that point how invested I was in this process and how much I… Continue reading Womp, womp, womp….
