  2. welcome to the blogging world. It's a pretty great place.
    I just had my first iui cycle too and we're now waiting to do another in late july/early august most likely. I wish TTC wasn't so expensive!

    Good Luck!

  3. My FIL is in ICU for 3 weeks now, so your post made me cry. I too lost a baby, my first ivf pregnancy. i have 2 ivf kids now and blog for my wonderful RE as a way to "give back".
    If you or anyone you know would like to enter a free fun easy contest for prizes, including a grand prize of a free micro-ivf cycle, please enter our contest running through sunday (or another one in August)
    Good luck! Tracey ICLW #118

  7. Hi Tristan - thanks for your comment on my post, it really means a lot. This is definitely not an easy journey, but you definitely know that. I'm so sorry to read that you have been struggling with this for so long. I am glad you are in with a good RE, and I hope you're able to get that BFP sooner rather than later. *hug*

  12. I can relate so much to your story. We lost my FIL not long after our miscarriage and it was a really hard step in the journey for us. We just started to focus on the idea that Hubby's father was up there getting our baby ready for us. I'm so sorry for everything that you've been through and I hope that your journey gets easier!
