AF has arrived! I will go for an ultrasound and blood work tomorrow morning on my way to work. I am hoping for no cysts and a low E2 level. My starting E2 for the 1st IVF cycle was 55. I am hoping and praying for a starting level somewhere in the 40's.
Keep your fingers crossed for me and send some low E2 vibes this way for tomorrow!

Our Story

How we got here......
- ***Becky***
- Welcome to my first blog! So many of you have asked how things were going with our infertility struggle and I know some of you are wondering but don't want to ask. This website serves 2 purposes: First, it allows us to keep everyone dear to us up to date on our journey to parenthood. Secondly, journaling gives me (Becky) an opportunity to vent which I'm hoping will allow me to keep my sanity ( or at least what's left of it). Sometimes I wonder how we got here. Never the less, here we are. Feel free to post comments and questions. We have learned SO much in the last year. We're not afraid to pass what we've learned along. Infertility is complicated and a difficult struggle. We look forward to sharing our story with you and hope you will support us along the way. (The newest postings appear first. Check the archives for earlier postings.)
