My first post...but a continued journey

This is my first time journaling online...so let's just hope I don't say or do something too terribly stupid! :)

After numerous losses (Ectopic - May03, Ectopic - Aug04, IVF#1 m/c - Jan05, IVF#2 twin m/c - June05) we have started our 3rd cycle of IVF. Today is day8 of my lupron shots and so far so good. Minimal pain and no bruising.

I go in for my baseline ultrasound on Wednesday (9.14). I shouldn't expect otherwise...but naturally I'm hoping everything is quiet and I can continue w/ my protocol of starting my stim shots on Friday morning. It's a little surreal to be doing this again, but oddly enough I feel so confident with this cycle.

Despite our losses w/ both previous cycles...I guess I feel like our bad luck has got to end soon...and why not now?! Maybe it's a little silly for me to be so optimistic and maybe I'm setting myself up for added grief...but I honestly feel so good about this cycle.

Thank you for joining me on this journey...we'll see how it turns out!
