Happy ICLW!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I love ICLW, but I can't believe it is already that time of month again.

If you are new to my blog, here is a quick summary of our TTC Journey:
  • November 2008: first month TTC
  • December 2008: BFP!!!
  • January 2009: m/c at 10 weeks
  • February 2009 - March 2010: a whole lot of nothing...my HSG is clear and DH's s/a looks great!
  • March 2010: First visit with RE
  • May 2010: Diagnosed with interchromosomal insertion

Now, DH and I are trying to decide what to do. We are waiting to hear back from our genetics counselor to see what the chances of us getting a viable embryo with IVF and PGD would be. If they don't give us good odds, we will most likely apply for traditional adoption. However, I worry that we will spend all of our money on IVF, and if it fails, we won't have any money left over for other treatments or adoption.

I feel like I am on an emotional roller coaster. Some days are okay, some are bad. I haven't really felt "great" since we got the diagnosis, but I am trying to work through it one day at a time.

  6. I look forward to hearing what the genetic counselor has to say....that will help immensely with your decision, I'm sure. Information can be hard to hear, but it is a guide....
