I enjoyed it. I never thought I'd enjoy these kinds of events but I keep signing up for them and am happy when they are done. I bought a knitted turkey hat and she wore a pumpkin one. We finished in a decent time, but unfortunately they were already starting the kid events. There were still people behind us who were much slower than us. I plan on commenting on their page especially since they touting walking was an option too.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-45965052944845764772014-11-24T18:00:00.000-08:002015-02-17T07:41:42.802-08:00Thanksgiving and VideosWe went to my parents' place for Thanksgiving. We stay with them too. Oz had his own room and he seems to be okay even though he's not spending every waking moment with his cousins. We will take the boys with us on a few adventures but it's good to be home and just be with family.<br />
<br />
We are also working on taking videos of the family. We have to lug around a camera that came from the adoption agency and video people. My good friend (so much so we call her my sister) and her husband spoke about us on the video and so did my brother. This is supposed to help birth mothers in making a decision. I get it, it's hard to just pick a person you've never met and this video allows for them to see a little bit of us as we are, animated and real. Hopefully our video will turn out okay and we won't look dumb, or totally boring.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-37069330207451262052014-10-13T13:29:00.001-07:002014-10-13T13:29:47.312-07:00Big StepThis afternoon we took the advantage of Oz being in school to go over some paperwork for the adoption agency. We hit the "submit" button on the APQ - Adoption Planning Questionnaire. This is the form that tells the agency what we can afford, what gender if any we'd like, was medical conditions are okay for us and answering questions about if we understand how the process works. In a day or two, the next section will be available which will allow us to fill out our letters about ourselves, a letter to the birth mom and descriptions about why we are super awesome and would be great parents to any child. We are finally moving forward and can't wait!Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-83256937543974987592014-09-23T17:36:00.000-07:002014-09-23T18:04:09.577-07:00Post Turkey Trot 10K presentThought these might go well for a post run/walk this Thanksgiving!<br />

Yes, we decided to move on to adoption. I found out that my endo more than likely caused by a crappy C-section is now in the walls of my uterus, right where an embryo needs to implant. So even if we had went with a donor egg but his stuff, it probably would not have implanted. If we had the money, I'd say let's use a surrogate and donor egg but we are not independently wealthy (However, we DO play the lottery).<br /><br />The seminar was info as well as question and answer. They also had an adoptive family come and tell us how it went for them. Oz came with us of course. He was actually quite excited at the idea of adoption and having a sibling. We wondered how he might react, but he was very excited. So much so that at the end of the seminar he asked the staff of the Agency we are working with, where his little brother was and why can't he take him home.<br /><br />We ended up going with American Adoptions. We liked their approach. They aren't pushy or overbearing and spent time after the event to answer a billion questions from not only us but several other prospective parents. We also liked that the family that spoke to us that day was a military family. Sadly, some agencies shy away from military families because we move -a lot. This made me feel better knowing that another military family was successful in adopting. They were also helpful by telling us some of the ins and outs of things like Tricare, DEERS, etc that the Agency would not necessarily know.<br />
<br />
It's costly, unfortunately. And the paperwork for the home study is about as bad as getting a TS clearance. But we are on our journey to expand our family and make Oz a big brother.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-9380809539577402202013-12-27T21:40:00.000-08:002014-03-09T14:40:45.146-07:00Happy Birthday to meWell I'm now 42 and we've come to the conclusion that my body is done having babies. We have been blessed with one child, one beautiful, smart, funny, loveable son who is totally awesome and cool. It's taken me a long time to come to the understanding that my body didn't fail me, because well we have a six year old, a healthy, happy six year old in our lives. He has dad's body, hair, eyes and fingers. He has my nose, smile, ears and somehow managed to have my brother's sense of humor. So my body is done having babies but it didn't fail me with blessing me with one son who is a wonderful member of our family. I wish I had seen that sooner, had understand that I have something so wonderful sitting right in front of me. But, I do see it and I know how lucky we are to have a great kid as our own.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-42588770596667362072013-10-04T16:26:00.000-07:002014-03-09T14:27:17.985-07:00I can do it myself motherWell the results of the surgery wasn't the greatest news. So we've been focusing on what we can do all on our own. We are pretty sure that IVF wouldn't work for us, so we've ruled that out. We are still muddling over a donor egg and adoption. Maybe with the pressure off and no more needles (at least for a while) that maybe if its meant to be we'd get pregnant on our own.
I need a new job though, this place is burning me out and leadership is umm well not my favourite. I'll behave though and not totally vent it out here. So keep your fingers crossed that this works and we get preggo or I find a new job far away from the crazies.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-23996245699427870862013-07-12T14:14:00.000-07:002014-03-09T14:15:22.427-07:00SurgeryWell after me pushing the issue with my RE, I ended up being referred to see a surgical specialist. My instinct kept telling me that I needed this. And well....I did. After 4 hours I came out being told that my right tube was fully blocked, scarred and infected. My left tube was partially blocked (which he cleared). He removed a bunch of endometriosis, as well as scar tissue and adhesions at the C-section incision. Lastly, he removed a fibroid from my uterus. It seemed like it was going well and he was optimistic that we could get pregnant all on our own.
Six weeks later, I was at my follow up appointment and found out that umm well, my fibroid was actually the devil in disguise. I found out I have adenomyosis. This is endometriosis in the uterine wall, which well SUCKS! And to add to that hot fudge sundae of suck, the most of the endo found was right in the spot of the uterus where the embryo would implant.
We have a few decisions to make now. I have a few things that I'll need to overcome before we can decide what we want to do now in our quest to have a bigger family.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-20373390530570776042012-12-30T19:00:00.001-08:002012-12-30T19:00:10.327-08:00SurvivingI've survived 2 days of the Chinese herbs.

Wow, I don't know what happened, but I tried Chinese herbs from my acupuncturist today to help with baby making, balance hormones and reduce my endo symptoms. She said it smells bad and tastes worse. It smelled fine considering I didn't breath through my nose. I got the first third down, but apparently drank the second third too quickly afterwards and um up they came. The last third stuck. It doesn't really taste bad, weird after taste but really not too bad. Not sure why I didn't take the second gulp so well - maybe I caught too much air.
I'll try it though, again tomorrow and hopefully it will go better the second go round.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-4638730468164102562012-12-28T14:57:00.003-08:002012-12-28T15:02:07.388-08:00Next stage by pushy meThe IUI after the scrapped IVF didn't work. A month of just good old fashioned BD'ing didn't work either. I'm tired of hearing how my eggs are old (insert eyeroll here). <br />
<br />
We are considering donor eggs and I am having a hard time thinking about it. Not my DNA, how do we explain it to a kid when they go asking why I look nothing like them. It's going to take more time before we agree to it or not. So I can leave that on the back burner while I consider it more.<br />
<br />
Adoption is also in consideration, but back to the current process.<br />
<br />
I was told today by the RE that he really couldn't recommend another round of IVF and probably not IUI (although he'd say IUI over IVF). He actually told me he would feel like he was cheating me and stealing from me. So I'm thankful for that, at least he's honest.<br />
<br />
So we discussed surgery again. I know, I know, we've discussed it before, but really if the IVF rate is in such a sad state for me because I'm a low responder to meds....then surgery won't hurt. Now I run a risk that removing the fibroids I know I have could injure the uterus and make it unable to carry a child to term, I'd be happy if they'd at least look in there. My gut, my intuition, my hutzbuch is telling me that I'm not pregnant because of my endo and my fibroids - not due to old assed eggs.<br />
<br />
So being the honest guy he is, he said to come see him next week, we will discuss surgery in detail and he will get me a referral to a doctor that specializes in removal of fibroids. He actually said I won't do it, I'd make it worse not better. LOL My little Ben Stein sounding Dustin Hoffman looking RE has a good sense of humor.<br />
<br />
I'm going to continue with the acupuncture too. Worst case, I'm calmer, I'm happier and my overall health is improving. It's also shown me that I don't take care of myself and I NEED to, pregnant or not. So manybe with surgery, acupuncture and a possible IUI we will end up pregnant in the next six months. If not, then we consider donor eggs or adoption.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-63649821198512277992012-11-12T11:29:00.001-08:002012-11-12T11:29:50.143-08:00DisappointedWent to see the RE today and we've scrapped this round of IVF. My hormones are
low and the U/S shows only a few follicles. I'm bummed. We were even working the acupuncture too in an effort to have a better IVF this go round. The RE acted
like he was trying to help by telling me that we didn't have to pay the fees and
yes its great that we are only out a small amount of the IVF fees, but geeze
that's not what I focusing on. Yeah keeping about 9 grand is cool, but was not the first frickin' thing on my mind.<br /><br />We were really hoping this would be it. I
read a ton of stuff about this protocol (flare) since we tried a new one and I didn't
read the best about it for low responders. I know it works as I know another woman that used it, but she's in her early 30s, not overweight and doesn't have the same work stress I do. But my gut was telling me that when I asked a few questions about
switching things around to account for what I read and he basically said no, we
weren't changing the protocol - that there might be an issue.<br /><br />On a good
note, I like my accupuncturist. It does make me feel less stressed which is
nice. So hopefully she can help get my body back on track and have a positive
IUI out of this.<br /><br />I'm not sure we can face another around of IVF, even
with this scrapped one. I'm hitting 41 soon which reduces our success rate of
IVF. The RE has brought up a donor egg and I'm having to think about that -
alot. I'm stuck on that although I'd carry it, it wouldn't totally be mine, not
really. It might almost be easier to just adopt. I just haven't had enough time
to think about these options though and want to concentrate on the IUI for now
and see if our accupuncturist can't lend a hand. I just want a second baby, our
family isn't complete yet, not to us anyways.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-75291970851535295682012-11-07T17:28:00.000-08:002014-03-09T14:17:13.645-07:00I hate this woman.

We spent about 2 months "off" as my body needed to repair itself and be ready for a new round. We went back to the RE and he's got me trying DHEA, Co Q 10 and recommend acupuncture. We are also trying a different protocol - the Lupron flare. Its for low responders aka chicks who dont produce a lot of eggs and helps to produce more. So since its another drug, it means more shots. Yes, yes I so love sticking myself over and over with needles (if you missed the sarcasism you must not know me very well). Anyways, I stab myself 4-5 times each and every day for 10 days. So 50 jabs is just such fun. But really if it works then its worth it.<br />
<br />
The other issue is more needles. I had my first acupuncture appointment tonight. Eastern medicine is different of course so you must have an open mind otherwise well it won't work. It's a hard concept sometimes for me to even get but in general westerners just have a hard time. I connected with my therapist I think and she loved talking about Chinese Medicine, so my natural habit of "whatca doing now?" worked out well. <br />
<br />
I had a little headache afterwards from apparently not listening and not eating right before the session (bad toad). But overall I feel perky-er, relaxed, and with some extra energy. I'm a little sore in my shoulders too but nothing eath shattering. Apparently my liver system really out of balance. Its going to take a bit to get it back in balance, but we are working against time. We are supposed to do the retrieval next week, but we are going to work a short version of the long stuff and get me as releaxed and balanced as possible for the upcoming procedures. I'm also having to change a few things - no more ice water (room temp), no cold stuff at all actually. No more sweets, no dairy and bitter foods (aka leafy greens). For the next few weeks I think I can handle that. Stopping my can of Coke a day will suck but I'll survive.<br />
<br />
I'll go over a session some time in the future. It's weird, but cool but weird. I could listen to her explain about Chinese medicine all night long. Yes I'm a total nerd.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-43859445786989017402012-09-17T17:50:00.000-07:002012-09-19T17:50:25.839-07:00SadWell the blood test came back negative. I knew though, I'd been having cramps for two days before the test. That was even with all the hormones they make you take.<br />
<br />
I feel horrible, like maybe I didn't lie still well enough or I lifted something. You know the "what if" game that so many people play. Well we talked over the weekend and we've decided we want to try again at least two more times. So wish us luck and let's hope the second time is the perfect charm.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-69286133427756168142012-09-05T17:45:00.000-07:002012-09-19T17:45:49.429-07:00Thing 1 & Thing 2Here's a snap shot of Thing 1 and Thing 2.<br />

I'm behaving and not doing anything, but I really want to put up my fall decorations. I think I just have a hard time sitting still is all. Now if only my boss would NOT call me while I'm on sick leave to ask the status of things I might be able to relax. Sadly, I also expect a frickin' "this is not a counseling, counseling" when I return for leaving the team in the lurch because of bedrest. *eyeroll* Yes people I am looking for a new job, but its the end of the fiscal year so hiring is tight. But I will be leaving this boss as soon as I can. I just hate that I'm leaving good co-workers and the field I love if I can't find another job doing the same thing. *sigh*Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-10008716330794857432012-09-03T11:51:00.000-07:002012-09-04T11:52:08.259-07:00Transfer Time!Today was transfer day. We brought Oz with us since we didn't have a sitter. That's okay. We set him up with his DVD player or Dad's phone. We sat down and talked to the doc, got to see the photos of our little embryos and discussed what would happen next. Oz and the hubby went to the waiting room as I don't think witnessing a medical procedure like that is proper. The transfer was completed, nothig was left over in the catheter and I was left placed on bed rest for two days.<br />
<br />
Please keep us in your thoughts for sticky embryos and a positive test on the 14th!Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-47343700794696216012012-09-01T07:27:00.001-07:002012-09-01T07:27:25.964-07:00Retrieval DayYesterday was retrieval day. Got Oz dropped off at our friends house at 6am. Got
to the clinic, they got my IV in really quick. They gave me all the directions
before drugs so I'd actually remember them. <img alt="" border="0" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.militaryspousesupport.net/boards/images/smilies/lol.gif" title="lol" /> After
they gave me the first happy drug I sang a bunch of 60's songs (I am the walrus,
coo-coo-ka-choo).<br /><br />I came out of it saying that it hurt to breath. I spent
about 2 hours in recovery. Just as they pulled the IV out and I bent over to
pull up the choines I told DH I needed to sit down. Two seconds after that I
said tell them I'm going to be sick. I dry heaved for a bit, got drugs for the
nauseas and finally about 30 minutes later I got to go home.<br /><br />At home my
shoulders started hurting, so I took a loratab and went to bed. Woke up about 7
pm and my shoulders hurt so bad I thought I was going to die. Called the on call
doc who proceeded to tell me it was normal. I even repeated taht my symptoms
were all on the doc's "call me" list. And was told again it was normal. I ate a
grilled cheese took more loratab and passed out for the night.<br /><br />Got up
around 5, and my shoulders felt better. Went back to bed. the RE called at 9 and
let us know of the 4 eggs he retreived, 3 fertilized, 2 are normal and one was
abnormal. So we will be implanting 2 embryos on Monday, a 3 day transfer. My RE
asked how I felt and I explained that I had a ton of shoulder pain but it was
better today. He proceeded to tell me (after going, "Oh really?") that it was
referred pain. Apparently the retrieval process can cause internal bleeding a
little and as the blood travels around in the adominal cavity it irritates the
diaphram which makes the shoulders hurt.<br /><br />So I'm taking it easy today.
Really wanted to go to the Chesterfield county fair but I dont think I'll make
that. And then on Monday we transfer our little amibas. <img alt="" border="0" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.militaryspousesupport.net/boards/images/smilies/adore.gif" title="adore" /> Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-13216855396824520962012-08-29T18:30:00.000-07:002012-08-29T18:56:06.857-07:00Houston we are a goWent back to the RE today. We have 5 follicles at 12mm and 3 follicles that are 16-20mm. So when asked if he was talking to his kid what would he say he agreed it was worth making a go of it. So we are going to retrieve whatever we get on Friday. He's estimating 3-5 and I'm willing my body to grab 6-8. Not all follicles will hold an egg, but straight up I'm willing the body to give 6-8 eggs.<br />
<br />
Got directions on injecting the HCG in my arse. The husband was on task for it. I went ahead and had the nurse use an ink pen and draw a circle for him to use as a target. He did a good job tonight. No pain and very little bleeding.<br />
<br />
So now I get a day off from shots and then its go time!<br />
<br />
Wish us luck.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-22017903790549419842012-08-28T18:40:00.000-07:002012-08-29T18:48:32.720-07:00News, it's what it isSo the RE saw me today and went on a tangent about possibly skipping retrieval and doing an IUI instead. Apparently I don't make many follicles. Sucks to hear but he said come see him tomorrow and we can decide then. I was crushed. I mean crap, I've been stabbing my belly fat for 10 days straight with 2-4 jabs each time. Scrapping it to go to IUI sort of pissed me off. So while driving to work, I called my sister at 6AM her time and sobbed into her ear.<br />
<br />
We decided that unless the RE said there was a snowball's chance, that we'd skip. If he said anything else then we were a go. I shared the same theory with the husband who agreed with our master plan. The closer I get to 41, the more I become "old" for baby making purposes. Makes me laugh that I'm described as old but according to reproductive science I am old. *sigh*<br />

The nurse proceeding to tear up my vein again. I want them to go back to sticking an orange again because I'm tired of looking like an addict.Household6http://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.com0
