Oh Leorira I'm so sorry for your loss. I could not imagine going through that even once, let alone twice as you have done. I had a friend who had this same problem, she is currently pregnant with her 4th child and has had her cervix stitched and is on complete bed rest the rest of her pregnancy. She is due at the end of November. This will be her 4th child, her 2nd was a still born little girl born around 36 weeks. She has had to be on bed rest for all of her pregnancies and the doctors do not know why she delivers early. Its unfortunate that this happens and we don't know why.
I will be keeping you in my thoughts during your next cycle and hope you stick around here, seems there are lots of nice ladies here and I'm so glad I found this place.

Hi ladies, I'm joining you here as well. Looks like I will begin stimming around September 10th. I'm participating in a PGD study with very high success rates (70%) so I'm very optimistic about this cycle!
Leora - I saw some of your other posts and am so sorry for your losses. I can't even imagine. I think you should definitely look into some type of cerclage. Also since your babies were such preemies it seems as if maybe your section scar would be smaller with a bit less risk of an earlier pregnancy? Just a guess. I had a section too with DD.
WeHaveHope - prior to DD we had one IUI, 2 fresh cycles with one BFN and one M/C at 8 weeks, and one failed FET. I feel y our pain, but please know there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Looking forward to sharing the journey with you ladies.

Kerpupples-Welcome. I am also sorry that you have had to go through all that you have. I look forward to sharing this journey with you as well well. You will find lots of support from the ladies on this board. I just started the thread yesterday and we have gotten a great response. I will officially add you to the board layer today. Sounds like you have a great chance this time around. I wish you all the best.

Kimish-thank you for your kind words. I definantely do not consider myself a sting person. Starting the Fall Board just seemed like a natural next step to moving forward. I am actualy realy surprised with the response and feel even bettertoday about it since starting the board seems to have brought such wonderful ladies together. The feedback ha been really positive and it seems like the ladies kn the board really needed a new place to go and other people to accompany them in this difficult journey. That actually has made me feel better than anything else. I feel like I've been able to help someone else in a samll way. I am realy happy you found the thread. I live in Miami, Florida. Where do you live? By the way I have already officially added you to the roll call. Only positive things will happen from there!

Kimish-I pray that this Fall will be it for all if us. We have all been through so much and have so much love to give. Let's all have faith that this will be our season for a beautiful little miracle. By the way, your welcome. I've been trying to set up our board to get ready for all the BFP's this Fall. It's been tough since my computer is down and I've been adding everything including the pics from my iPhone.

Hello my friends! AF finally came today a whopping 10 days late. Weird. I'm pretty regular but this was my first complete cycle following the IVF. I go for a cyst check tomorrow and start the bcp. It looks like, if all goes well, that October will be the time for the cycle.
I'm happy but sad to see some familiar "faces" here. Leora, welcome to the board. I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine your pain but you are a very strong woman and I am excited for your future.
I'll get to personals tomorrow. I just said goodbye to my mom and bro this morning who were visiting for 2 weeks. I'm exhausted and have no brain cells left. Plus with AF starting today I'm fried.
Best wishes to all of us.

Blueeyedreamer-woohoo for AF finally getting here. I know how you feel. I am praying so hard foe AF to come but nothing. My RE did warn me that after the MC it may take a while. But I don't want to wait anymore. It's so strange how others dread AF and we will even do the AF Dancw for wach other so AF will come. I hope and pray I will br following you soon. In the meantime maybe you ladies can do the AF dance for me. Sending you all lot of love and wishing you a good day.

So I was going to add an inspirational quote every week, but I read this one this morning and o found it extremely inspirational and uplifting. I thought I would share it with all of you. I hope it inspires you just as much as it has inspired me to continue on this sometimes treturous and heartbreaking journey of IVF. We are all loving strong women looking for the same thing. I pray that we all get there but to do so we must endure and keep going...
