**Venting**

Is it just me or is there a baby boom... The Dutchess of Cambridge, Jessica Simpson, like.... 8 girls at work.  I just can't get away from them all.  I feel like the ugle step child in a fairy tale, not good enough.  I hate being so discouraged about this but i'm in a funk. 

 Thanks Ladies for "reading" me out.  Sad

I think it's normal to feel that way.  I catch myself having those kinds of days too & I just have to stop & remind myself that her fertility doesn't mean that it wont happen for us.

Anyone else think that Jessica Simpson got pregnant because she couldn't finish the Jenny Craig deal she had to lose all that baby weight?  That was my very first thought.

 

And I am happy about the royal couple.  You know they started trying immediately, so it didn't come super easy for them.  I can't imagine the pressure to produce a royal heir! 

 

Sorry you are in a funk though!
Me: 28; DH: 35 1/2008 -- Started TTC
3/2009 -- FD discovered at 17 weeks
1/2011 -- Lap and HSG reveal Stage IV Endo and both tubes blocked.
4/2012 -- Consult with RE for IVF#1 -- All bloodwork and SA are normal -- Repeat HSG - SURPRISE! Both tubes are open.
May, June, August 2012 -- IUI#1-3 -- Letrozole + Bravelle + Ovidrel trigger = BFN
9/2012 -- Lap#2 to remove endo and Hysteroscopy

IVF#1 (Long Lupron) -- 12/6 ER - 20R 11F * 12/11 ET - Transferred 2 excellent blasts *
Beta #1 79.7 * Beta #2 240 * It's a GIRL!!
