My hubby and I flew down to Charlotte on Friday - we had a great weekend with our friends & family! :) I'm at the airport waiting for my flight home. My husband's sister, aka Sissy, got us these 4 little rattles for our little ones! So adorable! When she was checking out at the store, the lady asked her if she was making a diaper cake for a shower. Her response was, "No, my brother is having quadruplets." So crazy to hear her tell that story - but it's true. :) I'm now thinking a safari theme for the nursery would be gender neutral if we get a mix of boys & girls.
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.
