This blog was started in 2008 when we did IVF for the first time to build our family after 5 1/2 years of infertility. We now have 14 and 8 year old boys (thanks to modern medicine) and we are enjoying our blessed life as parents ♥ In the summer of 2016 we took another huge step and moved across the country from Oklahoma to New York! This blog is about life and everything in between

My, What Big Follicles You Have...

Today I went in for a baseline ultrasound and bloodwork before I start my Follistim on Saturday. Dr. Haas was looking at my ovaries, and commented that they are more "robust" than my last ultrasound. So he tailored my Lupron and Follistim to try and avoid hyperstimulation. Otherwise, everything else looks good and I will see him again Monday morning for yet another blood draw.



The results of our blood we had drawn on the 8th were back, and we are both negative for all of the STD's they tested for (hurray!). AND, we both have O+ blood type! Now that's a soulmate...

  2. Are you SURE you don't have PCOS??? I mean are you positive? You may have PCOS.... My, you're hairy, do you think you could have PCOS? No? But you have lots of hair... I learned in my fancy doctor school that if you're hairy- you have PCOS.

    Going to doctor school: 1million dollars
    getting to look at vag's all day: 500/vag.
    Telling a hairy italian woman she has PCOS just because she's hairy & infertile: priceless.

    ps. I loooove you!!!
