Welcome ICLW!

This is my first time to participate in International Comment Leaving Week and I'm so excited! I can't wait to have some new blog friends to follow! Welcome everyone!

For my full history, click "my story" above, but for a brief run down...
  • Married 5 years this June, started TTC last June
  • Chemical pregnancy Aug. 2011
  • Miscarriage Dec. 2011, uterine septum diagnosed
  • Hysteroscopy for septum removal Jan. 2012, blocked left tube
  • 2nd hysteroscopy March 2012 to "check" and remove more septum if necessary--it was; left tube still blocked
  • Laparoscopy after septum was diagnosed muscular and vascular, necessitating aggressive septum removal, March 2012; left tube withered, apparently having never functioned
As of now, I've stopped all hormones and I am waiting for my body to ovulate naturally again.  So basically we're trying to learn patience!! 

Thanks for visiting my blog! Have a gander (one of my students' vocab words this week) and enjoy! I look forward to meeting many new bloggers this week!

Hello from ICLW! I wanted to stop by and say I'm sorry for your current struggles. Infertility can be so difficult to navigate, especially without support. I wish you the best of luck with your journey to baby!

Hi, this is my first ICLW too! I, like you, am trying to learn patience while we wait for our first appointment, more tests, more appointments and eventually hopefully find out when we might get treatment. I am so sorry to hear of what you have been going through. Here's to new connections.

Hello from ICLW! Patience is hard in this whole process but obviously necessary! I have had my septum removed also...let's hope for the best!

This is my first ICLW too! :) Great to "meet" you. Infertility is an exhausting and extremely difficult journey. I'm so glad that we've connected and hope we can continue to support each other through this maze! Wishing you the best!
