Bringing Home Baby L

June 06- married

July 08- last vacation before becoming parents- yeah right
July 08- started trying to conceive
August 08- BFN- started charting
September 08- perfect tri-phasic chart- BFN
October 08- perfect tri-phasic chart with an implantation dip- BFN
November 08- crazy long 40 day cycle- BFN
December 08- stopped temping as much- tried to “relax”- BFN on Christmas day
January 09- back to a 30 day cycle- slight line on HPT- chemical pregnancy????
February 09- never had a period...umm what is going on?
March 09- still no period- what is going on?
March 18, 09- first RE visit
March 29, 09- finally progesterone shot induced period
April 09- first round of Femera
April 14, 09- HCG injection
April 15, 09- IUI
***sperm morphology issues identified during IUI
April 22, 09- failed ovulation- progesterone level of 4
What now?
May 09- break- I'll just try clomid that a friend gave me
- no period- no ovulation- crazy clomid doesn't even work
June 09- first round of Follistem with IUI
***sperm morphology issues identified during IUI
June 30, '09- BFN
July 09- break (but not really)- saw a line on pregnancy test but started period two days later (chemical pregnancy???)
August 09- meeting with RE- told that we had a less than 2% chance to get pg on our own- and even a really low chance doing IUIs and stem meds- IVF is our most logical next step.
diagnosis:
less than 2% normal sperm morphology
retroverted uterus
annovulation
poor egg quality
endometriosis
(the list keeps building)
Let's move ahead with this IVF plan
August 11, 09- during office visit to plan for IVF- the ultrasound shows that I am about to ovulate on my own...WHAT?? So we did a natural cycle- IUI
August 25, 09- BFN
September 09- break before starting IVF
October 09-supposed to start IVF, but moved it up to Dec.

December 12, 09- good follies- HCG injection

December 28, 09- BFP!!! (levels are low)
December 31, 09- levels dropped- we lost the baby
Diagnosis:
