Where we are...

I've been slacking. Trying to just relax during the cycle and not overanalyze everything or worry myself to death. So I didn't get any blogging done, so lets get everyone caught up.

Well...Due to poor cycle timing we had to do a short round of birth control, and because of my high risk of blood clots (Factor V Leiden) I did Heparin injections 2x a day. Some of my lovely technicolor injection locations! Ouch, but all for the baby right? I mean it is training. I'm going to be doing these my entire pregnancy as well.



Once the cycle got started, we did a higher dose of the Gonal F 112.5mg and we had an amazing response. At trigger time we had 2 follicles that were pretty much guaranteed and 2 more that were possibly mature enough! My lining was the best it has ever been at 11.4mm! Everything was great! We went in for the IV Intralipids, our first time. It was so weird! The liquid is actually white! It looked like milk and was soooooo cold going in. 





 Our post wash numbers ended up with about 15million sperm at 70% motility.... that is really good for us! We were very hopeful. There were alot of prayers and fingers crossed! but in the end, we still were not pregnant. So now we are on the road to IVF and we need your help again. We're starting all over and we have a bigger goal. But we are confident that we are on the right path and hopeful that we will be able to raise the funds needed to try again...
