Yup. You read that right. I haven't gone mad and missed an IVF cycle. I mean, I have missed a section, the second fresh cycle which gave us Logan. But as we know the outcome to that one, I thought I would pause that story for now and tell you the most recent news. From… Continue reading The third cycle

After the first cycle
So, as we learnt from my post The first cycle, I didn't end up with the positive result I so desperately hoped for.

My lining thickened as it should at the right time and my ovaries were looking promising.… Continue reading After the first cycle

Sounds pretty ominous for a title for a blog post! But its time to get to the IVF story... I've been delaying it long enough! And to be able to get to the IVF, I have to talk about how I got to that path, and for that, I have to visit my past. This… Continue reading The first IVF steps feat. My Past
