Daddy is such a good multi tasker -- don't you think?????????
Edie -- holding her own bottle at 7 weeks of age!!!!! She is so advanced !!!!!!!!!!!
Now she is tired after all of that bottle holding
often people ask me what gets me through life with twins ....... just how do I do it? Well below is a picture that will answer that question for anyone who is curious.....
Your girls are beautiful! I know you mentioned that they were the product of a FET. How many fresh cycles did you do? And how many did you transfer for the FET?
Thanks for your response. I also have no tubes. I have done 4 fresh cycles and this is my first FET. We only have 2 embryos frozen and we're hoping both make the thaw. Again, Edie and Ella are amazing. They give me hope!
Thanks for the kind words. It sure looks like the little ones keep you busy! But what a thing to look forward to. It makes all the bumps in the road seem worth it! Happy Mother's day!
2/2005 excruciating abdominal pain. ER visit. Exploratory Lap. Right fallopian tube removed due to torsion (twisting).
2/2005 referred to RE (reproductive endocrinologist) because even though left tube was not removed it had hydrosalpinx (fluid in it). Chances of it functioning slim to none.
4/2005 met with RE to discuss options. Chose to not proceed right away.
4/2006 decide to revisit RE and start IVF process. Began all the counting, measuring, blah blah blah. You girls know all the crap we have to do.
6/2006 ER (egg retrieval) and first ET (embryo transfer) and first BFN (big fat negative). The day of my ER was also the same day my biological mother died and a dear friend had brain surgery. PHEW!!!
8/2006 second try with a FET (frozen embryo transfer). Second BFN. Damn it.
2/2007 RE and OB decide it best to go ahead and remove the left fallopian tube. Just in case that is causing problems. I say go for it -- because according to my RE everything else was perfect. The eggs, the embryo, my lining, my labs, etc... so why the hell was I not pregnant yet? So tube begone.
2/2007 OB says we can go right ahead with another cycle but we sit it out awhile. I had to rebuild my spirit. It was crushed by this point.
6/2007 Final FET. Last 3 frozen embryo. If it didn't work - not sure if we would do another round. But alas -- we got a BFP (big fat positive). I took at least 15 pregnancy tests before the RE confirmed it with blood work.
3/2008 Edie and Ella are born. And the rest has been blogged about -- so read up!!!
