.update.

so i'm like, SUPER impatient. and was worrying all day yesterday about my "low beta"..so what did i do. i called dr. f to get him to order a blood test for today AND tomorrow, instead of waiting til tomorrow. he complied...he appeased me. so, i had my blood drawn today and my beta is now 10!! so it doubled in 24 hours. i'm ecstatic.. dr. f. is THE MAN...

thanks everyone for the nice comments and i'll keep you updated.

.holy moly.

hey ladies. i keep checkin' this blog and it's pretty "quiet" and i wanted to get your opinion on this. so i just finished my 3rd ivf, first one with new RE in vegas. i loved my experience with SIRM and hope that what i found out today really means i'm pregnant! help me out guys.

so SIRM does your first beta at 8dp3dt (about 4 days earlier than most) and i just got my results ... beta = 5. so TECHNICALLY it's positive, but i know it's low, even for 8dp3dt. what do you guys think? too early to get excited? i hope not. i did have a positive hpt today but it's SOOOO faint. i just hope this isn't a chemical. that will suck.

Kerith, WHERE ARE YOU????

Does anyone know how to get a hold of Kerith? She dropped her blog and I don't have any way to contact her. If any of you have an email address for her (or if by chance Keri herself is reading this) could you email me at skiballswife at hotmaildotcom?

Thanks so much ladies!

WELCOME! SIT DOWN, GRAB A TISSUE, AND KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Hello my name is Kim and I am so glad that you have found us. This blog was created with love for all of us who are struggling with infertility.

For years I wondered why I was here if I could not have children. It was my dream to get married and have five kids before I was 30! Wow was I off. All though we struggled for years to have a family in the end we were blessed with two amazing boys and a sweet little girl to share our lives with. I have learned so much through this Journey and have made some amazing friends. There were many reasons we couldn't start our family when we wanted to. The Lord had a plan all along and needed us to be in the right place at the right time for our kids to come into our lives. I also believe there was another purpose. It was for me to learn compasion for others and reach out to those in our same situation and feeling our same heart ache. I know that I can not take the pain away put I feel we can lighten the load by sharring and opening up to eachother knowing each of us has our own story to tell.

My hope for this blog is that it can be a place to share personal experiences, ask questions, vent, cry, feel peace, and most of all feel validation. It is so hard to feel alone and that no one truely understands what you are going through. We can do so much to help eachother. I love all of you, weather I know you personally or not I share in your same heartache. I know how you feel and what you are going through. Help me spread the word and invite others to join our Sisterhood of Support.

Lots of Love
Kim
