Introduction | DH and I have been married since 1996 and in 2008 finally decided that the time is right to start a family. If only life were that simple, right? Our story: We have been TTC since 2008 and so far have nothing to show for it. Countless tests and doctor's appointments later, we have decided to move directly to IVF. IVF#1 failed in the worst way possible (several + HPTs and the dreaded "You are pregnant, but..." phone call). FET cycle was just as perfect as the fresh and ended much the same way--not with a baby. We decided to adopt from Korea, but in the meantime will be doing another fresh IVF cycle to freeze embryos for use after our adoption. Alas there was nothing to freeze. Apparently I am *that* broken. Fast forward 6 months and things have taken a sharp detour. Shock of shocks, I am pregnant *without* medical intervention. Had a perfect baby boy on July 8, 2011. Now considering domestic infant adoption. But WAIT, another pregnancy without medical intervention?! Our daughter was born May 28th, 2013. Our family is complete and we've moved on to the next phase, but I haven't forgotten where I came from. |
