A brief history

I am not a blogger but I decided this round of IVF I will share what I am going through with family, friends or a passer-by in need/want of a shared story.  My last/first round of IVF was last summer.  I didn't share much of anything with anyone except my husband.  I was afraid of my feelings, the events and uncertainty.  Everything went right, I had 22 follicles, 20 mature eggs.  I was a rock-star performer!!  They transferred 2 embryos and we were on our way.  The blood tests came back positive 3 times and then it was negative.  So for a very short lived time I was pregnant, they call it a chemical pregnancy. I skipped a cycle because of work and now sit on the anticipated eve of cycle 2.

I will update as often as I can because I always have something to say ;) and I know I will be feeling an awful lot too.  If I glaze over something unknown please ask and I'll do my best to explain.  I want this journey to be shared.
