I came home a bit early so I could take Celia to a summer festival they're having at her preschool, and I happened to stop home first since I was early. I had to stop at target first to get swimmy diapers for the baby so we can go to the pool party today too. Anyways, I stopped home so I could go to the bathroom, and get a little work done before the festival starts. I just got off the phone with my GPs office. And guess what? She's announced today that she's leaving the practice AND retiring from medicine!! I happen to LOVE this doctor, so I'm NOT happy about this at all. I suppose it's good for her, she has 2 kids and will be able to actually spend time with them (yes, I'm jealous!). But sucky for me. I had to reschedule my appointment with her in August with another doc in the group. Really a huge bummer. I hate it when you find a doc that you click with and they decide to retire. Mind you, she's young. Wonder what happened here.

Our journey with secondary infertility, and parenting after IVF.
About Me
- Shelby
- I'm 33, happily married and mother to 5 year old Celia and 18 month old Seth.
My Infertility Story:
March 2, 2002- married the man of my dreams.
June 2003- started ttc
June 27, 2003- got a BFP, and 9 months later, gave birth to a healthy little girl, Celia.
October, 2005- went on a cruise with DH and Celia, and started ttc our second child.
February 2006- saw my OB at my 6 month check-up, and since I got pregnant with Celia so easily, he decided it may be worth trying Clomid, since my cycles were irregular.
April 2006, I was 9 weeks into my first clomid cycle with no BFP and no CD1. I call my OB, and he sends me straight to SGFC for testing.
June 2006- my first RE appointment, decide to get tested and see what is going on.
August 2006- Diagnosed with PCOS. Decide to hold off on IUIs until Jan. 2007, when I can add a second insurance policy to help with cost. Hope that Metformin will help regulate me a bit.
January 2007- send insurance info to SGFC.
February 2007- get letter from insurance saying that they need a letter from my RE that justifies IUIs considering my husbands SA results. Confused, I call my nurse. We go in for a consult, and find out that we have MF, low count and poor morphology.
March 2007- DH sees urologist. No reason for the MF, so we decide to go ahead with IVF.
May 2007- start IVF#1, take 1. Cancelled due to cysts.
June 2007- IVF#1, take 2. 10 eggs, 3 mature, 5 fertilized, 3 blasts. 2 blasts transferred.
July 2007- BFP!!! Ultrasound shows 2 sacs. One sac reabsorbs, one remains.
February 19, 2008- Seth Nathan is born!
