About Me
I am 34 years old, after trying to conceive for more than 2 1/2 years (since we got married in Sept 2005), I recently got my BFP on 7/2/2008. I had a laparoscopy in Dec 2007 and the RE discovered stage IV endometriosis. I had four rounds of Lupron Depot (essentially fake menopause). As soon as the Lupron Depot was out of my system, we did a round of IUI with Clomid (we had four cycles in 2007). The first cycle after the treatment for endo worked!! I am a tax partner in an accounting firm, so I have a most appropriate due date in March.
Interests
I enjoy photography and scrapbooking. "We" have 2 dogs and "I" have a cat (not the one in my picture). I have two three year old nieces and a year and a half old nephew that I love dearly. My SIL is also pregnant - I'm glad that I get to join this round of family pregnancies! My best friend has six kids, and I also think of them as my nieces (5)/ nephew (1).

I’m With You
I just realized on your profile is states "I" have a cat... My DF says that to me ALL THE TIME! He loves them and plays with them but when it comes to anything else it is "they are YOUR cats." But I know with out a doubt if we had a dog (someday) that it would be "our" dog. Men are so funny!
Congrats
Congrats on your pregnancy!! Thank you so much for the post. I hope & pray that I also have luck with the IUI.

I just found out that I am pregnant after more than 2 1/2 years of trying. I was diagnosed with Stage IV Endo, and completed Lupron Depot treatment. We just had our first IUI after the Lupron Depot treatments and it worked! It has only been two days, and I am still a little scared to believe that it is true.
