Fertility Faux Pas: January 2006
http://fertilityfauxpas.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
One woman's quest for mommyhood, despite the fact that most of her girly parts aren't behaving in a socially acceptable manner. Monday, January 30, 2006. If it sounds too good to be true. I knew the other shoe would drop eventually. I got the call from my IVF nurse yesterday morning. It started out well. "You still have 8 embryos" he said and I thought Wow, that is great news! Posted by Fertility Faux Pas @ 6:49 AM. Friday, January 27, 2006. Wasting away again in Margaritaville. Like most other things in...

Fertility Faux Pas: May 2006
http://fertilityfauxpas.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
One woman's quest for mommyhood, despite the fact that most of her girly parts aren't behaving in a socially acceptable manner. Wednesday, May 24, 2006. 19 Weeks and Still Clueless. After my 97th call to Dr W. went unanswered last week, I finally stalked out my former IVF nurse for some answers instead. I always liked him, he's another person that I dealt with during my cycle that didn't sugar coat things. Which is all I ask.Just don't bullshit me. Tell it like it is. Does this guy think I am a moron?

One woman's quest for mommyhood, despite the fact that most of her girly parts aren't behaving in a socially acceptable manner. Tuesday, July 25, 2006. Confessions of a Pregnant Belly-Rubber. I’ll talk about it again when I need to, but in the meantime, I’m going to get off the CF tangent for a while and blog about happier things. Does your stomach hurt? You are always holding your belly, like your stomach hurts. Sure enough, my hands were firmly ensconced around my protruding belly. You can FEEL it?

Fertility Faux Pas: December 2005

One woman's quest for mommyhood, despite the fact that most of her girly parts aren't behaving in a socially acceptable manner. Thursday, December 29, 2005. I truly have no idea. Posted by Fertility Faux Pas @ 6:12 AM. Thursday, December 22, 2005. Silly, silly girl. Don't you know that whining and complaining only leads to more shit to whine and complain about? Oh, it was a present alright, from your friend and mine, Freedom Drug. I opened it up and inside there were shots! And there were alcohol swabs!

IVF and ICSI: August 2006
http://ivfandicsi.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 18, 2006. FET #4 on Hold. We've decided not to do a FET cycle this month for 2 reasons. 1) I'm a teacher and this year I am teaching a new grade and I am moving to a new classroom. The transfer would fall at the end of August or beginning of September when I need to be at school getting my classroom ready. My RE is one who is for 3 days of bed rest after a transfer so I really can't afford to do that at this time. 2) Paul and I need a break as well as my body needs a break! Cancelled cycle...

IVF and ICSI: December 2005
http://ivfandicsi.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 21, 2005. Ever since we made the decision to go IVF/ICISI we've essentially given up trying to get a BFP on our own. We've handed our future over to a doc and his team. We go on vacation next week. We've always slept so well while we are away. And it is not the bed or the room. I think just being away from it all makes all the difference in the world. I'm looking forward to the week. Mainly because I hope to sleep deeply through the night. I wish I could get my thinking right. I told ...

IVF and ICSI: March 2006
http://ivfandicsi.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 12, 2006. Bad News and Good News. Bad news: No beans in my belly. Good news: We have at a minimum, 14 embryo's frozen (14 embyros made it to the blastocyst stage and 6 could potential make it there tomorrow - if so, they will be frozen too). Our doctor said with that amount of embryo's frozen it's not a case of "if" we get pregnant, it's a case of "when". We are disappointed but we know it's the right decision. Besides, we've waited 2 years to get to this point, what's another month! The pr...

IVF and ICSI: July 2006
http://ivfandicsi.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 28, 2006. On Wednesday we transferred 3 embryos. All 3 embryos survived the thaw really well according to Dr. C. I've been taking it easy for the last 3 days as per doctor’s orders. Beta is set for Aug. 9. I think we've mentioned our doctor likes to joke around in the procedure room. His comment this time just after he released the embryos into me, "If you get pregnant with triplets, I'll shoot you! How ironic would that be! Posted by Lisa @ 6:43 AM. Tuesday, July 25, 2006. On the drive back...

Sunday, January 29, 2006. Back on Birth Control. Who would have thought that after being birth control free for 2 years that I'd be back on the pill! Posted by Lisa @ 1:15 PM. Thursday, January 26, 2006. I stumbled across this site http:/ whennatureisnotenoughivf4me.blogspot.com/. She is going through cycle #3. She just had the retrival yesterday. Here's a copy of her 'about me.'. And check out the blogs she links to on the right hand side. Posted by Paul and Lisa @ 5:42 AM. Wednesday, January 25, 2006.

One woman's quest for mommyhood, despite the fact that most of her girly parts aren't behaving in a socially acceptable manner. Tuesday, March 28, 2006. Yesterday was the 10 week mark. Double digits. 25% of the way done. It's a milestone for us. A small milestone, but a milestone nonetheless. Only my close friends and family know. We still haven't told anyone else. I find myself craving secrecy, privacy. I'm overprotective of this pregnancy. I'm not ready to share it yet. When we got to SNATCH, I chit ch...
