My last flights before the babies arrive have definitely been memorable ones. On Friday morning, my flight to Atlanta was delayed - so I had to book it from Gate E to Gate B to catch my connecting flight to Charlotte. Me and the girls (in my belly) made it - but my luggage didn't make it in the flight. Today my 5pm flight to Atlanta was delayed 25 minutes. I boarded and now we're on the tarmack because Atlanta is on a ground stop. While we were waiting for Atlanta to lift their ground stop, Charlotte also went on a ground stop. Right now we're waiting for a gate to open, so they can get us back to the airport. It's been a looong day because I had to get up at 4am for a work call this morning. But at least I have my music, my girls, and tons of thank you cards to catch up on!!! Hoping I make it home tonight, but I think there's a chance that I may end up getting one more night in Charlotte. ;)
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.
