Jen - please continue to keep us posted on Olivia's baby sibling!
Roxann - I still keep hoping it's all going to work out for you, regardless of how it happens!
Ronda - would love to hear from you!
For me... I'm on cycle day 10 and have been having spotting off and on since yesterday. This evening, it's a bit more - brownish discharge. not sure what that's all about. AF typically lasts about 5 days and then she's done. So, who knows. It's not that pleasant though.

Jen, So Happy to hear everything is going great, you are in my prayers. Olivia will be a Big sis in no time I wish I could move but you know how that goes, DH is set with his job and I keep moving up in mine.. We will just have to save for IVF, It's weird but I always said I would stop TTC at 36 but something in me just wont give up! I will keep trying until I get my BFP! I pray that it is soon, if not then I feel IVF is our only hope. I don't regret the TR, I'm so happy we went this route first, now we know we might need help like IVF.
Well... you girls keep us updated and I will as well. Wishing everyone a BFP and Happy, Healthy pregnancy.

So far so good. I go tomorrow for my second blood draw. Dr. B said it would be okay to wait until I actually missed AF. She was due yesterday so we will see what tomorrow brings. Unfortunately I won't know what the numbers are until Wednesday so its going to be a really loooonnnngggg 48 hours.
Roxann, Wow, maybe you should move, it would only be temporary of course, to New Jersey. I could have sworn that I heard some where that insurance companies have to provide fertility treatment coverage to NJ residents. (maybe it was NY, who knows) All I can say is it must be nice for them. Just think though, when you do get a bfp you can always tell that baby when its a teenager that he/she better be extra nice to you because you literally paid alot of money for them. I don't know. Maybe not your type of humor, but my boys would truly get a kick out of it.

CONGRATULATIONS JEN that is wonderful news. You are truley blessed. Lil Olivia will be a big sis now Keep us posted......
Yes, DH and I were aggressive with TTC. We have spent 25,000 in the last two years for everyhthing we have done, from the TR itself, all the test, doctors and RE's, HSG,Laprooscopy, fertility drugs, IUI procedure, not to mention all of the OPK's and HPT's I have been through (I had an addiction...lol) It sucks that I have two differnt types of insurance (BCBS and Aetna) and not one of them cover fertility treatments. To me infertility should be treated like high blood preasure patients or diabetics...they didn't ask for their disease either, I didn't want to have infertility! O well life goes on.
Ronda and Jen keep us posted...Two BFP June girls!!

Lisa, Your trip sounds like a whole lot of fun! We want to go out to Colorado next month and are just hoping that business picks up so we can make it happen. If not, we are going to 'tour' georgia and southern tennessee by camping for two weeks.

GA!!! JEN!! REALLY??? I was wondering when it might happen for you! AWESOME!!! Send some of that baby dust this way!
No DH doesn't drink monster or red bull. He used to drink a lot of Mt. Dew...but I'm glad he changed that. He's been drinking more water. His last SA - I actually cant remember when it was (maybe last September) - wasn't too bad. Most definitely improving. It's mostly me and my dominant left ovary (the blocked side). This year, we switched to his insurance, which we learned too late, that fertility wasn't covered. So - we'll go back on mine next year, and maybe try again, if we aren't lucky enough between now and then. I've been busy with so many other things tho - so, the months tend to fly by. We have a motorcycle trip planned out west at the end of July. I look forward to that!
Hope this finds you all well. Ronda, still hoping you will check in and let us know how you are doing.
Roxann, I truly hope that this roller coaster ride ends soon with a BFP for you. I think you, more than alot of us, have pulled out all of the stops from the beginning. I can't imagine what you have gone through with the meds and everything these last two years. Yet, I am sooo very hopeful for you.
Lisa, Remind me, did DH ever have a follow-up SA again? Does he drink Monster or Red Bull. I know it is a theory that it helps the swimmers, so who knows it may with worth a try.
Tara, Haven't heard from you in a while. How is it going?
To all of my June Sisters... sending tons of babydust your way.
Well, just a quick update on me. Well, and I hope that you feel this is good news and please know I only tell you because I feel so close to you all. It is quite possible that Olivia could be a big sister in February. I got a bfp last night at the hospital. I am very early, only 11 dpo today so I am very wary. Other than DH you all are the only one's I have said anything to. I will keep you posted on me.

Ahhh.. Jen, that is so sweet, Thank you for keeping us in your prayers. Now I'm going to play catch up here......
OMG! Congratulation Ronda...I pray this is your sticky bean and it is nestled in the right place. Please check in and keep us posted.
Lisa..... Nice to see you checking in, I hope all is well in your neck of the woods.
As for me..... My last medicated cycle was a bust boo... hoo! I guess I got my hopes up only to be shot back down. I have to admit I was a little depressed about this whole thing but came to realize it's ok if it does not happen. I mean I already have 3 healthy, beautiful kidos and DH has two healthy, handsome boys. I'm busy working and unpacking in our new home. DD graduated on 6/5/09... She is so perfect. I'm blessed to have a daughter like her. I broke my addiction of POAS! I have not POAS since April 30th I believe...lol but I do feel the urge to fall off the wagon! Wishing everyone BFP vibes..... KIT, Rox

Just checking in. Hoping you are all well. Ronda, please check in sometime soon and know that I am thinking of you!
Little Miss Olivia will be 8 months old in a week. She is crawling, going forward in her walker, sitting up, all that good stuff. She LOVES the pool and is completely spoiled rotten LOL!! Her borthers give her anything and everything she wants and the minute she even sounds like she MIGHT cry they are running to her to pick her up. Now that they are out of school for the summer it is even worse.
One last thing, I am not a super religious person, I don't go to church or anything, but I do pray everyday. I just wanted to let you know that even though everyone needs their space right now I think about you all everyday and say a little prayer that this journey which was started two years ago will make a very happy turn soon for each and everyone of my TR sisters!
