Posting a day early :) Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!!

FYI: We don't want to exclude people, but this is a check in for ladies who are unfortunately having trouble trying to conceive (TTTC = 3T). If you've been trying for more than a year and/or have been diagnosed with any form of infertility OR are now pursuing adoption OR have decided to remain childless following a 3T journey, you are welcome to join us. 

 Updates: Ok ladies... where are we at this week? Testing, Procedures, Appointments, Adoption updates, Life updates? What's going on, etc. Let's here all about it!!

 

QOTW: Part 1 -What are you most looking forward to on Thanksgiving tomorrow? And for the Canadians, what are you most looking forward to this weekend? (or tomorrow, if you also celebrate US Thanksgiving! :) ) Part 2 - what are you thankful for?

  • @RockABye - Yay for moving right along! Hope this is it, chica!

    @OceanHutt - Sorry about the weight loss frustrations. Finding time to fit in the gym (especially during the busy holidays!) is so hard, but I know you can do it!

    @Poppie717 - FX that your wait is short and sweet! So excited for you!


    Update: Had my D&C last Thursday and was pleasantly surprised that the physical recovery was not bad at all. I am continuing have spotting and a few clots here and there, but thanks to everyone sharing their experiences, I think things are going pretty well. I have a follow-up consultation with RE on Tuesday. It sounds like my AMH is even further in the toilet, so he wants to start me on FSH suppression for a couple of months before trying IVF again. However... I had my AMH drawn a week before my D&C. I know that AMH drops significantly during pregnancy, but I'm not sure if the retained tissue could have altered it as well? I tried to get the MA to ask him while I was on the phone making the appointment, but I don't think she understood what I was saying and just told me to discuss with RE when I see him next week. :-?

    QOTW: Part 1 - Definitely looking forward to drinking... a lot... Also, we're spending Thanksgiving with DH's BFF and his fiancé. We always have a blast with them, and the Monopoly shit-talking has already started. :)) Part 2 - I know I've said this a million times already, but I am so thankful to have my H by my side on this shitty shitty journey. I love him so freaking much. 

    Wishing you all a great holiday tomorrow!

    5000 Comments Fifth Anniversary 500 Love Its First Answer
    edited November 2014
    Update: Just triggered. ER Friday am. Estrogen is still over 5,000. The nurse who called wouldn't give any specific numbers. I'll have to ask before ER Friday. The stress of all this has taken away all excitement we had going in.

    QOTW: 1. We don't know. We could go to dinner with either of our families or both now that ER is Friday. We don't know if we want to though. We decided we will decide tomorrow.
    2. I'm thankful for DH always being here for me. Also, for all of our very supportive friends lately. When our families have been weird, our friends (here and IRL) have been our backbone.
