Livy's poor tooth

Our little Livy Lu Lu had to go see Dr. Dimmeck today. Earlier this week we noticed that she had a knot on her lower gum line in her mouth. It looked like a tooth was trying to break through but couldn't and was just causing a big whitish bump instead. I kept an eye on it and made sure she never ran a fever or anything, but nothing was happening and Brent started to get worried. So this morning I called and they said he would probably have to look at it. So we went. We paid our copay and saw the Dr. for like a minute - just long enough for him to tell us that it was just a tooth. Oh well, at least now we know and we don't have to worry anymore. I hope that 'ol tooth breaks through soon. Here is a pic of me with my silly girl showing off her teeth!

5 Years of Infertility

Brent and I had dated for years - since my senior year of High School and were finally married on September 27, 2003. We had been together so long that we decided we would start a family immediately. Things turned out to be a bit more difficult than we planned. After many years of trying and medical intervention I was finally diagnoised with Endometriosis in Feb. of 2007. My disease was severe - stage 4 and had spread to my liver. After having exploratory surgery Dr. Cook thought that my ovaries and tubes were capable of functioning properly enough to produce a pregnancy but with the hostile environment inside of me I would need lots of help. We began Lupron therapy that would last 6 months as a way to try to "kill" off some of the endo. When the 6 months was up we began rounds of Clomid with IUI (Intra-Uteran Insemination). We did 2 cycles of this with no result. Our only other option was IVF which we decided to begin in January of 2008. After carefully following the treatment schedule of meds. and shots we had 14 eggs retrieved on Feb. 5, 2008 and of the 14 eggs 6 fertilized and became embryos. On Feb. 8, 2008 Dr. Gill transfered 3 of the best of the embryos. Two weeks later (Feb. 22nd) MaryLou called with the good news that my pregnancy test was positive!!!
