Here is what's been happening, you can also find detailed information on this on my new blog:

- December 2013IVF #4 Frozen Embryo Transfer - BFP! YES!
- January 2014: IVF Cycle #4 Dilation and Curettage
It has been a trying time for the body and mind. There has been laughter and tears. When it rains, it pours. I can't imagine how other couples dealing with infertility do it. When we first started on the IVF road, we were really excited and probably told a fair share of the people we know. After three failed attempts, we didn't want to talk about it anymore. But too late, we have already told people. So the inquiries were hard to answer as we are more cautious.
The day after Christmas, we found out the embryo wasn't developing correctly. On January 3, 2014 we had a dilation and curettage. Our Dr.s' advised to try again in another two months or so. But I am so hopeful about 2014!
