On September 1st, 2009 . . . .
after 9 months of trying to make babies without a doc . . .
8 rounds of Clomid . . . .
3 IUI's with injectibles . . .
68 sessions of acupuncture . . . .
4 months of FertilAid . . . .
Lots of tears and 17 sessions of therapy with a licensed professional . . .
and ONE IVF . . . .
I received this email from my RE's office . . . . .
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are PREGNANT!!! (I am pretending to hear you scream right now :-)
Your level was 168 (VERY GOOD). Your progesterone was 20 (ALSO GOOD).
So...just continue your medications and come back in for a repeat lab on Thursday!!
Yea :-)
I did cheat and pee on a stick the night before, but hearing the beta was the icing on the cake!
I woke up in a happy mood and the babies have only been getting up once a night each so I was just a happy lady this morning. My boy was sleeping in my bed and he gave me big smiles when he woke up. My girl woke up an hour later and I went downstairs to see her and we played and she smiled and cooed for me.
September 1st will be a special day every year. I told hubby he better have cupcakes in hand when he comes home tonight!!
Those are some deliciously cute babies, Ash! Congrats on the one year anniversary!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteThe babies are just beyond adorable as usual and YUM to cupcakes!
It's funny it's just about a year ago today that I got my BFN from that hellish IVF cycle. I was so devastated that I think I blocked out the exact date. Little did I know that MY baby was already just starting to cook in his first mom's tummy. Sometimes I guess you just have to trust that Universe really knows what it is doing!
:) Fairlight
Lucky you to have it documented in an email! Congratulations and happy one year!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, have you watched Bachelor Pad at all? Awful - the whole kissing contest thing was nasty. Totally a WTF!? :P
As great as your Wednesday posts are, this is SO much better.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Friday. Thank you for checking on me this morning. All is well.
Happy 1 year since getting the greatest news ever!! :) This definitely deserves cupcakes! Beautiful babies!
