This is tough on a marriage. Or at least it has been for me. There's the rollercoaster of hormones, the blame , the I'm not worthy, we're not worthy, HE's not worthy part, and the OMG will it ever happen for us that we, too get the fairy tale: all that equals OMG lots of stress

Over the last few ...

Today in the doctor's office, a woman came in with a beautiful six month old baby girl -- she wanted to thank them and let the docs and nursing staff meet her little miracle.

She said "i got lucky on m first try"

I asked her if she'd mind telling me how old she was and she said, "36"

So it doesn ...

Liam's Mommy: Thank you for your response.

I can't shake the being nervous about every last detail.

At my first ultrasound, the doctor said I had "over-achievers" for ovaries because at that time under no medication, he found a lot of follicles. He started clomid in september, and for lack of a ...

Ok now I'm unclear -- did you carry your daughter to term or did you miscarry. If you miscarried I'm so sorry for your loss.

I have very good friends who had IVF years ago and after several cycles were blessed with a set of twin girls. One of the girls has downs the other does not. Both children ...

I'm saying I don't know what I'd do. But for me personally, I can't see how testing beforehand and deciding to discard is any different than reducing based upon an amnio which detects the same abnormalities.

The day of transfer, after hearing the doctor's assessment, I asked our doctor what he ...

they have checked for ohss. I normally drink a gallon or so of water every day and I've increased it .

I am a ballet dancer and haven't been exercising or dancing oor even stretching at all for fear of causing a problem. Maybe that's why I've gained so much weight.
