Hey, Becky!

on the surprise! How exciting! How are feeling so far this time around? I know the last time you were really sick with hyperemesis.

I haven't heard from Jan or Chris in awhile. Our IUI grads thread and IUI chatty thread sort of died out. I think Barb posts on the IVF board sometimes.

I still poke around here too. We are on our third cycle of TTC #2. Hopefully this is it. It is so good to hear from everyone. Congrats Becky! That is awesome. It's nice to see the pictures of the little ones (not so little anymore I guess) I think of everyone all the time too and check in when I can.

Hi Kelli!! Hi Jan!!! Hi Chris!!! I loved seeing your beautiful kiddos in your siggies and seeing waht you are up to!!!! We all need to make a habit of poking in on occasion!!!

Kelli - Own is so adorable - he just looks like the apple of Mama's eye!!!! I am feeling fine this go round... so of course I am nervous! I go to the doc tomorrow to get an u/s to see what is what. Hoping and praying!!!!!

Jan - Ava is such a beauty! I love the picture of her! I cannot believe she is 1 1/2! Stop it - she was just born! How is your Bichon dealing with her? What else is happening?

Chris! - your little girl is so adorable! I love the longhorns pic! I swear it was just yesterday you were telling about your cerclage! I hope so much that you get your BFP this month! Are you using a protocol or just the fun way? When do you test?

Girls - I cannot tell you what a warm feeling I have hearing from you!!!

Please say a prayer for me tomorrow at 2pm (EST) when I get my 1st u/s~

Hi Becky! Hi girls!
Wow, I can't get over all the little ones!!! They're all getting so big!

Sorry I have been MIA for so long, but do lurk from time to time to see how everyone's doing. A lot of new faces. It's sad the board isn't hopping like it used to be. I guess that's actually a good thing though, right?!

Nothing much happening with me. I think DH & I are pretty much done with IF treatments. It just got to be too much & I mentally couldn't take it anymore. So I'm officially the crazy lady that talks to her dogs like children! Seriously though, they've been a godsend and have helped me get through a bunch of rough patches.

I'm so glad to see you're all doing so well. I will definitely continue to stop by & peek in on everyone. Thanks for asking about me.

Good luck tomorrow Becky!!

Becky, I am doing Femara, Menopure, trigger, IUI. The same protocol I had when I got PG w/ Brynn. Good luck today. I was hoping to have heard something by now, but I always get the time zone things confused so it may be too early.

Meri!!! I cannot blme you one bt about being done with all the IF stuff .... you were put through the ringer and back again!!!

Your furbabies are PERFECT!!! I love them!!! If you have more pics I would love to see more pics.

As for me - not good news yesterday at the OB... sac was only measuring 4 weeks and I am confirmed 6 weeks by betas... so as my doc put it, all we can do at this point is pray for a miracle.... I am ok with all of it - I just hate waiting to know for sure.... I will let you gals know what happens next week.
