I'm in limbo, too...

Hi Everyone... This sounds like the right thread for me...

I joined the Forum in September 2007 while I was on the 2ww from my FET. Fortunately, I got pregnant; unfortunately, I miscarried at 8 weeks with no indication of a problem. I lurked around in November and December to check on people that I had talked to, then decided to start posting again a few weeks ago.

DH and I have been fortunate that IVF/ICSI has worked for us. Our DD just turned 2 this month! We are now gearing up for a fresh cycle in April. Right now, I am on BCP, and DH is on testosterone and antioxidants. With my March pill pack, I start on Metformin. Until then, I am trying to:

1) Keep my sanity
2) Lose the 8 lbs. that I gained last year
3) Prepare mentally and physically for another fresh cycle

I can be impatient, so the wait to even begin my cycle seems sooooooooo long (who would've thought that waiting 3 months for a 50-50 chance to get pregnant would be so difficult?). I am hoping that April 2008 works out for us as well as April 2005 did. Guess I am now staring the "advanced maternal age" thing straight down the barrel... Can I say that I am a "young 36?" Ha!

Alana--I am very sorry to read about your news. I had a rough time dealing with one m/c... Sending you positive thoughts...

Anyway, I am happy to see lots of good news on the Forum, too, and I am hopeful that 2008 will be a great year for everyone!
