We had such little hope for that cycle. I pretty much marked it as a formality just to "get through" so we could continue on (in good conscience) with another fresh cycle. It's amazing how life delivers these surprises!
We went through a lot in those early days. Low HCG levels (I think it was 25.5 at 15 dpo), being slightly behind in growth in the beginning (five days behind via ultrasound...the nurse said it could go either way), then our four day NICU stay for reflux issues. But Hayden is here....spunky, funny, beautiful, healthy, smart...so smart. She has such a strong personality already...it somehow fits with her being a fighter and survivor early on. Love her so very very much....
My five day frozen blastocyst, right before transfer
My first + test with Hayden, the line was barely there!
Our first ultrasound at 4 something weeks...she was tiny tiny tiny
Getting bigger, but still behind in growth...told it could go either way...
All caught up!!!! And near term at this point!
And now for some present day photos!
