About Us
- Lauree and Mike
- After an 8 year battle with infertility and countless struggles, our family is finally complete. This blog chronicles the journey it took for us to start and build the family we always wanted. Background on the blog (started in 2012, just days before I found out the embryo transfer for our son worked).... I decided to start a blog after realizing I have only been able to make it through my TWW's (two week waits) with the help of Google and with the openness of other women suffering from infertility sharing their own stories and giving others hope. I have time and time again found my exact symptoms on other women's blogs and felt an overwhelming sense of calmness they provided me. I thought it was time to pay it forward and hopefully provide this same thing to other women on their own journeys.

11dp5dt beta (4 days early)
(My blog started on 1/25/2012, but I have gone back and added our entire journey up until that point.)
Beta comes back at only 6. I am told to cease and desist all medication. This cycle is a bust. I take it better than my first failed cycle. Guess it gets easier each time.

9dp5dt +HPT!
(My blog started on 1/25/2012, but I have gone back and added our entire journey up until that point.)
So I really wasn't planning on POASing (peeing on a stick) this cycle but I woke up in the morning from a dream induced orgasm. I thought it was for sure a sign!
Turns out it was (very faint positive):

Start progesterone shots today. With my IVF I used suppositories so this whole shot in the butt thing is new to me.
