Back to the Living

Ok, so I've come back to the real world...I think. Power came back on at 11:02 last night and my parents were up at 6 getting ready to go back go Beaumont. They were planning to go back anyway - they found out we got power there last night before we went to bed. We were shocked because we had been told it would be weeks before power came back there.

I've just cleaned for 3 hours - who knew 3 people and a dog could make such a mess in 3 days without power? Gees. I can say my apartment will probably end up cleaner than ever after this though. I'm still cleaning...

I may go to the office this afternoon to start putting my cube back together - I'm afraid that is going to take a few hours. We packed up in such a rush I have no idea where anything is. I assume tomorrow will be close to a normal work day. I'm exhausted though, so hopefully I get some rest later today!

Glad to hear you are ok. I am still without power and am mooching off of the internet at my husband's office. At least with all the trees that went down in our neighbor's yard and our yard that we had not property damage.

I have been getting some running in and I love our cooler weather since we have no AC

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....

Into the Donor Egg World We Go

As I sit down to write this, I'm shocked to see February 27, 2022 was the last post I've written about our IVF journey.  In some ways, it seems like so much has happened over the last year, and on the other hand it seems like nothing has happened at all because we are back to square one. I'll provide a quick summary of the last year, but please understand this won't even begin to describe the true roller coaster ride we have been on.  I actually don't think it is even appropriate to call it a roller coaster because that indicates there are some ups.  Our ride has been more like a train ride through hell. After our failed transfer in February, we decided to take a break in March to let my body rest a bit before transferring our next embryo.  During that time, a friend reached out and told me about her friend that hadn't had success here but did at CCRM in Colorado.  At the time it almost felt like a divine intervention, but I now know better.  We spent seven...
