3T Check in! :)

If you have any changes to this list, wish to be removed, added, or have graduated (yay!), please shoot me a PM. 

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: Have you started Christmas shopping yet? How many people do you have to buy for? Are you a buyer or a DIYer or a combo of both? (that's a lot of QsOTW lol)

    I am so hopeful for you two! Crossing everything!

    Update: Just waiting. The video equipment was delivered back to the agency today, so I hope we have something to view in a few weeks. I think that will help our profile (it seems like everyone else has a video).

    QOTW: We are about 60% done with shopping. We buy for everyone in our immediate family (4 parents, 3 siblings, 2 ILs, 3 nephews), and I buy for a few people I work with. DH went out today and bought most of my gifts. We're going to the mall on Sunday to finish up (I did really well on Cyber Monday!)

    Pregnancy was never the end goal; being a mom was.
    I've been holding out on GP: I got drunk once and started a blog: Here it is (11/7 update)
    3T<3

  • @RockABye and @Islandmonkey8 - EEEK! The dreaded 2WW! Everything's crossed for you two!!! Great number on the frosties, Island!

    AFM - On Tuesday, I had a f/u with RE. Apparently, my AMH went from 0.76 in 2013, to 0.55 in March, to <0.03 now... UGH. At least my RE seems pretty hopeful, because I definitely am not.  The plan now is to restart the mega dose supplements I was on before (Vit D, folic acid, B12, PNV), restart heparin twice daily (yay for shots again!), restart antivirals, and addition of vaginal E (to keep FSH <3), CoQ10, and DHEA. Lab draws every week again, and then a recheck of AMH in 2 months. He thinks I'll need to be on all this for at least 5-6 months to get my number up high enough where he thinks we can get good numbers with stimming. I'm definitely on board with this plan, but I've already started mentally preparing myself for the possibility of donor eggs. I've also read and have started implementing recommendations from It Starts With The Egg. Here we go...

    QOTW - Truthfully, we aren't buying for anyone besides something small for each other this year. We're going to be moving the weekend before Christmas, and with the money lost on the house, the unexpected medical bills from our loss, and saving up for round 2, money is pretty tight. I've already made it clear to my family that we won't be doing gifts this year, and we don't usually get much for DH's side because we have 15 nieces/nephews on that side (ranging from 6 months to 18 years).
