Hi new ladies and ladies I already know! I think it's time for me to come back here for support because as much as I try to deny what's going on I need some like minded ladies to chat with!
My brief story. Few rounds of injects plus IUI to get my son in 2010. He's 19 months old now. It's been quite a journey with him because he was diagnosed as "on the autism spectrum" at 15 months and receives 23 hours a week of therapy. We are hopeful that he will lose his diagnosis, but you just don't know.
At the same time, I was trying to get pregnant with #2. After Clomid + iui and a monitored cycle, I had a m/c at 11 weeks, and then 3 chemical pregs in a row. After much bloodwork, HSG, visit to the rheumatologist I've found I have lupus anticoagulant antibodies present in my blood. Currently just finished my LAST round of Clomid + IUI, taking progesterone now, baby asprin and daily blood thinner shots. Oh and crossing my fingers. Did I mention that my AMH just came back even lower so my next option will have to be IVF...please please let this cycle WORK! The Lovenox blood thinner shots BURN and leave nasty bruises and I have to take them the whole pregnancy.
Anyway, looking foward to chatting with you all. Melissa, conGRATS on another successful pregnancy! I will be following your story!
Thanks for letting me vent...

Hi. I took lovenox shots my whole pregnancy too. It's funnny how it becomes a 'normal' part of the routine. After a while, it was like brushing my teeth. : 0 )
I wish you the best. You have a little reminder of hope that you can hug each day. That is great that you are giving your son so much support and opportunity.

Hi there! I'm pretty new around here and learning a lot about MA. I'm so sorry about how hard your journey has been but I hope that this cycle is the success you've been dreaming of!
