Hey! We said our vows on a yacht out at sea! It was one of those wedding packages that you buy! It was kind of a mess because I did not realize that I have sea sickness. LOL, so we hurried through our vows and I rushed to puke. (really romantic, right?!). Where did you honeymoon? did you stay at a resort or one of the villas?

Kate- The next time you are in Indy, you have to give me a yell! We will definately get together! What town is DH from?

We were at Sandals Halcyon Beach in a villa for 10 days. Th "good" part about being a travel agent.

Your wedding sounds beautiful (minus the puking), I wish we would have done that!

And by the way we would love to see you on the Life Journey board!

TTC history, diagnosis, children? etc -
DH and I are TTC #1 - We TTC naturally for several years. Started seeking professional help beginning of 2004, and finally RE at beginning of 2005. After LAP/HSG, blood tests, SA, etc., we were told that we are both fine and that we have unexplained IF. I also tried Metformin/Glucophage for about 9months, as I have Syndrome X (AKA Insulin Resistance), but eventually quit taking them b/c of the side effects I was having. My primary doc and Obgyn said I have Stein Leventhal (PCOS w/o cysts), but my RE doesn't think I do?! My first round of Clomid/IUI/HCG shots got BFN. The 2nd month I took Clomid again and developed a large cyst -- so I was benched that month. The next month the cyst had grown and there were 2 more - so I was benched again. 2nd IUI on 10/06 was BFN... IUI #3 (2.5 mg Femara & Ovidrel trigger) on 11/3 BFN; No Insurance $ left... Immune Testing next? Looking into adoption!!! We want to Adopt also!!! Couldn't get through this w/o God to guide me through and my family and friends. I have an amazing RL support system!!!

TTC history, diagnosis, children? etc - We started TTC in March of 2004, thinking we would get pg right away. 9 months go by, no baby, 1 year goes by, no baby. Went to see my OB/GYN...can't find anything wrong with DH or myself. I just love being unexplained!! Sarcastic tone there. After three Clomid and IUI cycles, I'm moved to a RE. He still can't find anything wrong with us. Did three more cycles of IUI with injectible drug Follistim. No such luck and starting to get really upset, bitter, angry...you name it. Did IVF #1 in November of 2005, responded well, transfered 2 embryo's. Got pg with a beta of 25 and then miscarried the same week. Waited a few months. Did IVF#2 in February of 2006 and am now 15 weeks along with a singleton. My EDD is 11/14/06.
