Tonight we celebrated our anniversary with a segway tour around downtown Columbus! The weather forecast for today didn't look great - but the rain held out for us. I was a little nervous about maneuvering the Segway, but then I got the hang of it. It was such a beautiful night and fun to learn more about our new hometown together. We were the only ones, so it ended up being a private tour just for us. Highly recommend it for our Ohio friends, or anyone else when they come to visit. This past year wasn't exactly lucky number seven for us, but we will keep on keeping on with our heads up. I love you, Joseph William! And thanks to everyone for all of the anniversary well wishes!! :)
My husband and I got married in 2005 and tried to start our family back in January 2008. We started our 1st round of in-vitro in December 2010 - which is when this blog was started. Despite a near perfect cycle, it resulted in a negative pregnancy test in February 2011. We were fortunate to get 6 extra embryos from that cycle that were frozen. In March 2011 we started a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. Despite another great cycle (on paper), all 6 of our frozen embryos had to be thawed to get 2 good ones for transfer - which failed to result in a pregnancy. In 2012, we took the first half of the year off and then tried a couple rounds of IUI with and without fertility shots - still no baby. In 2013, we did our 2nd round of in-vitro with my sister offering to be our gestational carrier. We ended up transferring 2 embryos into each of us and were blessed to welcome 4 babies in October 2013.
