Happy ICLW!

January 22, 2011

Welcome ICLWers, and happy new year.  It’s been 2 years since I started this blog at a time when we were looking down the very uncertain barrel of our first IVF cycle.  Since then we’ve welcomed The Bee (result of ICSI#1), celebrated and survived her first year and are now girding our loins for another attempt on the electrical bull of IVF, hopefully next month.

So we’re facing the same uncertainty with mixed feelings – we were incredibly lucky the first time out of the gate last time and are preparing for the odds to not be in our favour this time around.  We’ve been so blessed with Lady G that we waver from knowing keenly how much we want a second, to feeling that if all we ever have is her, that our family is pretty complete as it is.

So looking forward to reading a few good blogs this month and getting to know some of you a little better!

    I’ve never gone through IVF, but electrical bull sounds like a great description of the emotional rollercoaster.

    You’ve pinpointed how I feel. I want another one, but the ones I have are so awesome they would also be enough. Still, I hope you RIDE that bull like a mofo and it does not buck you off. And then you gracefully have to get off because, well, you are pregnant again and pregnant ladies shouldn’t ride bulls.
