A quick hello to you all and sticky vibes for those of you who are finally in a well-deserved TWW. Sara - I hope you are there soon as well. Kel - things sound fantastic for you - I can't wait to see a BFP in your signature.

And thank you all for your thoughts and cyber-hugs.

I also have to remain optimistic (I couldn't do this without hope that one of these cycles will indeed work). My FS really believes it is a numbers game - at this age, she believes 50% of my eggs will be abnormal and it is a matter of getting 1 good one (she did say if I was having better egg numbers she would recommend PGD but it just doesn't make sense when I'm only getting 1 or 2 eggs). Also, I was able to catch some of what I've lost (that is already TMI) and she said it looked like enough for them to run genetic tests on, so I will know for sure whether this was another chromosone issue. As horrible as it was for me to do this - the desire to know for certain what the issue is was overwhelming and it forced me to just do what needed to be done.

We already have a plan in place for the next cycle (that is, the next cycle that I am ready to do - I will definitely be taking a month off). She also had me take a number of the recurring m/c tests - just to see that there's not another issue that has to be dealt with. She didn't volunteer this immediately, but when I asked, she was completely agreeable to running them.

So, it's away for the long weekend for us - with wine & chocolate & cheese (I can't wait) - and then back to wheat grass, acupuncture, Royal Jelly (that will be a new one for me), DHEA (another new one for me), and anything else I read about online other than jumping off a bridge!
