What is with the Pineapple reference?

The reason this baby is referred to as our little "Pineapple" is because of the nickname Bob gave me after we started IVF. Bob said because I had endured so much, and was so strong I was like a "pineapple". The outer shell of a pineapple is strong, stubborn, hard headed, but once you peel back those layers it's just a mushy, sweet fruit inside. So immediately when we found out we were pregnant the ladies on my board started calling the baby our like Pineapple. So there you have it, how the nick name Pineapple and TTP (Teeny Tiny Pineapple) came to be.

Why a blog?

I wanted to share our Journey of IVF and TTTC with others. It is and was a long difficult road, and I feel that if I can help even one woman find comfort, give suppport, and make a difference even just woman who is going thru infertility or IVF than I have done something wonderful. I've brought a sense of understanding and comfort to someone else. To my fellow TTTCR's I pray for us all, and we will have our babies.....

Our Dream

Some dream of big houses
Or shiny new cars,
Ours is to someday
Hold a baby that’s ours
Some dream of more money
To hoard and to keep,
Mine is to someday
Rock my baby to sleep.
Some dream of careers
In buildings so tall,
His is to someday
Toss his kid a baseball.
Some dream of great power
To be strong and tough,
Ours is to someday
Have a child to love.
Some dream of things
Such as silver and gold
Ours is of the day
Our child we’ll hold.

Post Op Appointment

Just got back a little while ago from my post op appt. Dr. explained to me the pictures that we were given from surgery, and can I just say no WONDER why we would have never gotten pg on our own! She showed me how bad my tubes were, and what a normal one looks like. My tubes didn't even look like tubes that is how swollen and blocked they were! Basically she said the end of the tube should be like a flower almost open and clear..then ends of mine looked like the end of a sausage...round at the ends with no opening (sorry if that is too much for some of you). So anyway, she said we should be just fine for an IVF in July! I am so excited I was dreading thinking we would have to wait until September with having to the overview class, consents, and nursning class for injectables. We go June 13th for the Class and then the 15th for the rest, and a few days after I should get AF, and I start BCP, LUPRON, & then STIMS, and then we should be able to do the Egg Retreival, and Egg Transfer in July...so excited..I could be pregnant a month and a half from now!!! Sorry just had to share in our good news today..thanks for reading!!!
