Monday, October 26, 2009. Taking Care of Baby. DH and I took a drive to NJ this weekend to attend a Baby Care class. It was given by the leader of our adoption support group. The best thing about it was no pregnant bellies! We had quite a few laughs and learned alot. It was a good way to pass the time because this waiting sure does suck! Posted by Working Girl.

Monday, October 20, 2008. So over a month ago, the day before my 42nd birthday, my RE transfered four thawed embryos into my uterus. It was the four from my IVF #3 in May. My RE and embryologist both agreed these four were better than the four I have from IVF #2. Two weeks ago, my therapist left me with a question to ponder. How much loss can you bear? It gave me alot to think about. Posted by Working Girl. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). BARREN BY THE BAY. Lilypie First Birthday tickers.

Monday, November 15, 2010. January 23, 2010. I want to end this blog on a very positive note. On September 17, 2010, my son was born. A birth mom selected my husband and me in late July. We met her in August and were able to share several outings with her before our baby was born 10 days early. She is an amazing young woman. And he was certainly worth the wait. Happy New Year to you! Please do not give up on your dream to parent. It is amazing! Posted by Working Girl. Links to this post. BARREN BY THE BAY.

BARREN BY THE BAY: Cruising

Tuesday, August 18, 2009. No, I haven't been trolling bars for a new man! DH and I are off on a cruise vacation this Saturday. (Of course, Hurricane Bill is blowing into the area). We are headed to New England and Canada from NYC. We planned for it in May and can't believe it's time to leave already. Here is a picture if the bridge looking toward the island I call home. I live on the bay along the left side of the picture (but not anywhere near the bridge):. Here it is at night:. Posted by Working Girl.

Sunday, April 05, 2009. Domestic newborn open adoption it is! I am excited and terrified all at once. I choose adoption over donor eggs mostly because my family is very open to adoption already. My niece K was placed in my sister's arms 12 years ago in a semi-open adoption. I will only have to minimally educate my family and friends about the process of open adoption. I had alot of unresolved issues with DE and I am giving myself the option to explore it again once I become a mom. Posted by Working Girl.

Monday, July 20, 2009. The title of this post is the date Mr. G and I officially became waiting parents with our agency! I am so excited to finally be paper pregnant! My family and friends, those that know, keep asking when I will be matched. I just keep answering. I pray it is sooner but, it is completely out of my control. I should be use to that state of mind by now, but I am not. Thankfully, my group and the blog community will help me! Posted by Working Girl. Congratulations on your paper pregnancy!

Sunday, June 08, 2008. Phewit has been a long time because honestly, I have had nothing to say. To anyone. I have just been internalizing all that has happened to me. The miscarriage is over and I managed the pain well. Self-protection is the phrase of the day! We had our follow up visit with the RE. This miscarriage was also chromosomal - Trisomy 4. He knows of no live birth with this abnormality. We discussed our next step which is FET. The RE also mentioned.wait for it. I will post more details later!

Wednesday, December 03, 2008. The day after Thanksgiving, Mr. G and I received our first Christmas card. It was from my husband's former co-worker T. She is the gal that hooked us up with our current RE. The only doctor to ever give us a real chance to try for a baby. She got pregnant a few weeks after me last year. Unfortunately, I had a miscarriage. And, why T and not me? We both endured the same grueling procedure. Why was I the unlucky one? Why is she better than me? Posted by Working Girl. Stirrup Q...
