Welcome ICLWers! This is my second time participating in ICLW and I hope that I will be able to leave many more comments this time around. Here's the quick skinny on me:
My sister has a unicornuate uterus and after years and years of battling infertility, she was able to conceive her now 6 year old twin boys using donor eggs and a surrogate. Given my sister's history, my husband and I decided to get diagnostic tests run after failing to conceive within 3 months of trying the old-fashioned way. As it turns out, I was actually pretty okay (with one blocked fallopian tube and polycystic ovaries), but we were in for a shock when my husband was diagnosed with severe male factor infertility due to poor morphology). We were extraordinarily lucky and blessed to conceive our son Ian (almost 1 year old now!) in our first IVF attempt using a single embryo transfer. We have 3 frozen embryos from that IVF and I'm hoping to conceive our second child through a FET sometime this year. I have an appointment with our RE in 3 weeks to discuss the best ways to proceed and I'm nervous and anxious already! I enjoy following other blogs about infertility and giving support when I can. I only wish that everyone who has battled infertility can have the same success that I have had.
