IVF Update...

Well, that last post kinda stunk....I guess I need to review some more things about creating your blog and how to align things correctly!

My apologies to Dana for not making this the most presentable descrption of her work. I'll have to add more and align them better very soon!

For now, I'm gonna update you lovely people on our IVF journey. Last month's transfer was yet another unsuccessful one. I'm a little bummed, considering it was the third one and 3rd times the charm, right? WRONG!!

Dr. Uhler suggested a surgical procedure to make sure that all I's are dotted and T's are crossed along with doing a mock cycle so that we can really make sure that next time is the winner. Let's hope it is! Keep all those fingers and toes crossed, August 2nd I have surgery and we'll see if all is good...

For those of you who might be interested in finding out more about some of the steps that women take while on the "Infertility" journey, take a look at this forum....It's got a lot of information for several different types of diagnoses and it might help you or someone you know understand how to deal with friends and family who go through these trials. I found this site when we realized that we weren't going to be conceiving without some medical intervention!

RESOLVE is also a great group to try and become a part of. They have local support groups throughout the US and educational programs are also available. It's cool, check it out too if you're interested. They're actually The National Infertility Association.

And last but not least, I'd like to give credit to a wonderful team of doctors and nurses who are fully supportive, extremely intelligent and famously knowledgable about infertility and how to cope with it. These are the people at FCI. Dr. Uhler, Dr. Beltsos, the nurses, laboratory and administrative staff are fabulous. If you need an RE (Reproductive Endocrinologist), this is the place to go. Considering IVF? this is the place!

Well, that's it for now....I hope you all enjoy the new slideshow I've added along with some new layouts. I'll be posting some more goodies in a little bit!

Talk to ya later~
