MFM
Today I had my preconception consultation with my new MFM. It went well she is very positive and reassuring. She differs from my RE in that she wants me start Lovenox as soon as I get a BFP. My RE said start Lovenox when we see a gestational sac. She also wants me to start baby aspirin right away. I had to go through my torrid past and hand over my gigantic file to the nurse. I only cried a little and she teared up too. So now here I am standing on the edge of the high dive again about to jump in. All those butterflies in my stomach and fears about what will happen are sitting in my throat. I know we are prepared. I have my towel, my goggles, nose plug and ear plugs and water wings. I'm still scared. Because this is it. I cannot keep losing babies. If this one doesn't work out I'm done. That's scary too. So the plan is take BCP for this cycle, next cycle take Femara, but use protection so I don't get knocked up and see if I can ovulate earlier than CD19. Then in March it's game on. So today I climbed the ladder and looked down at the water, but I think I need to run around the pool a few times to get my courage up.

I will cheer you on as you take your last laps before climbing that terribly high ladder. ~Hugs~
Happy and good thoughts sent your way, from me to you.
This is a very exciting time for you.
You sound very ready for this. Emotionally, I do not think we are ever ready for what lies ahead. Especially considering all that you have been through...
Your new doc office sounds committed and really invested in you on this journey too.
I will follow closely!!
Your new doctor sounds helpful. Many prayers and well wishes for you in 09.

We may not know each other, but I'll run with you around the pool. Your new Dr. sounds prepared and that's a good thing. I'm sending you lots of luck and hugs!

Hi, dropping in from ICLW. I just wanted to say HI and wish you lots of luck as you "jump" back in. I have been on a break myself, and will be jumping back in the pool myself. Its a scary step, but its what we need to do to get us through our journey to motherhood.
Best Wishes!
Best of luck Amylynn. I know how hard it can be because I have also lost multiple babies. {{{Hugs}}} and prayers for you.
ICLW
Good luck! It is scary, especially when you know that it's the "last shot". I hope this is it for you!
*hugs* Good luck!
ICLW
Scary, definitely. But I hope the new doctor is right on track.
ICLW
Wow! That's quite a plan. Looking down at the water is a big step. Cheering wildly from ILCW.
That first leap is always the hardest.
May you find strength, compassion, and hope while you run your last few laps.

You can do it! Keep your eyes on the prize.
ICLW
Sometimes, when you look back, aren't you amazed at what you've survived so far?
You can do this. You'd be nuts not to be scared, but I know you'll take the plunge when you have to.
Good luck! ICLW
P.S. My file at the RE's office is ridiculous. It's too big for the folder, and is falling apart from age, size, and overuse. I've become quite fond of it.
Good luck to you.
ICLW
The best of luck to you. You can do this!
ICLW
Good luck-I wish you all the best with your new doctor!
ICLW
Positive and reassuring are good qualities in a doc when we're feeling fragile. Hope that your dip in the pool goes swimmingly.
Happy ICLW!
Practising lots of deep breaths before you jump in the pool will help when the time comes. I'm wishing you 100% easy success.
I'd love for you to be holding your newborn while YOU give ME some assvice about jumping back in that pool this time next year!
I'm cheering for you as you get ready to dive in!
