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.

1st U/S and bloodwork since stimming

Well looks like this cycle FLEW by!!! I will most likely be going in for my ER Sat or Sun, which means trigger (HCG Injection) tommorrow of Fri night. I am hoping for Saturday is the day that I go in so I will have all day Sunday to recover as well, which I've never been able to do before. It's always been surgery, then back to work the next day, which given on how much they had to dig has sometimes been painful! It will also give my body a chance to heal a lil bit before taking in those beautfil Embies!
We will be doing ICSI again this round, and will transfer 3 if it's a 3 day transfer 2 if we make it to blast.

My lining is triple lining...which means the bleeding I had last week is unexplained.

My RT Ovary is progressing slower than the left. I have around greater than 14 follicles on it, and about 6 or 7 or 8mm-14mm. The LT ovary is greater than 14 on it as well, showing quite a few at 19-21mm. So one is progressing more than the other.
They also cked my cervix, and for polyps, cysts to explain the bleeding last week. I had some free fluid, so they aren't sure what the bleeding was. That is it for now...sprinkle me with baby dust please =0)
