Ladies, thank you so much for all your prayers. They give me strength at every moment.
Unfortunately, I started going through miscarriage. I don't know if it's going to happen naturally or I will have to go to emergency room.
My doctor told me in the morning that my chance of getting pregnant and having a healthy pregnancy is minimal. He said that the best option for us is to adopt and in the meantime try to conceive naturally - sometimes it works...
I won't be writing til probably tomorrow, because my pain is getting worse and I think I will go and lie down.
I go for my consultation tomorrow also which there isn’t nothing the doctor can really say because I already know my body responded well to the shots I produce a lot of eggs and some of them was good grades. It just wasn’t my time. I accept that but it still hurt because we spent our last and DH doesn’t want to be on a payment plan for other cycle and it might not work. So I'm going to trust and believe in GOD for my miracle pregnancy because that’s all I can do. Is trust and believe that he is going to do it for me and the rest of you ladies. I'm claiming a supernatural pregnancy. It just a matter of time that’s its going to happen. My DH was mad because he was like it should have work I told him I know but its more for us because we are going through IVF, IUI or any method to have a baby and its costing some of us so its more noticeable. Unlike woman that get pregnant naturally that it just didn’t happen for them this month or the next and they keep trying until it do happen. We just have to go through a lot. I don’t think God is punishing us I think he want us to get closer to him and trust in him to help us and that’s what I’m going to do.
Thanks Lisa, consultation didn't go that well - it started off with a 2 HOUR wait to see the doctor and consultation was not very imformative or helpful. He said I did everything right, (egg) donor did everything right, and they did everything right. I was given a 60% chance of it working, and unfortunately I fell in the 40% group. He didn't want to change any medications or anything in our next cycle because everything was perfect with the last one. Perfect, but not successful (???). Frustrating and saddening.
-My husband didn't go with me to the consultation because I had a feeling he would get angry, so I can understand your husband getting upset. I just asked my husband if he had any questions for the doctor and I would ask for him.
-- I did get some information about FET. They said the cost was $4,000 which covers 3-4 office visits, bloodwork, and embryologist fees. If blastocysts (we have 2) don't make the thaw there is no fee except what is accrued from embryologist.
My doctor said there's a 70% chance that one blast makes the thaw
50% chance that both make the thaw
and a 50% chance of getting pregnant.. ::sigh:: I don't like those odds, but they're better than nothing.
Also, my doctor informed me there is a shortage for Lupron. Have any of you that are starting another cycle have any trouble obtaining Lupron? Or been wait-listed for it?
--I did ask about trying to naturally conceive for a few months, but pretty much dismissed this and said I should be on birth control to get my "uterus used to the hormones and the estrogen in the birth control will make me feel better" Hmph. I don't know how I feel about it. I was extremely responsive to the hormones. And I did have a period April 26 -May 1 and if I were to ovulate on my own (which I can't really do), my most fertile days are May 7-12. So I'm just going to have fun with my hubby and see what happens.
---One last thing, while I was in the waiting room, the two ladies sitting next to me were talking about how they adopted and both had situations fall into their lap, which brought them their children. Sometimes I feel like that is meant for my husband and I...
-- Wishing lots of baby dust and lots of prayers to you all.
Best of Luck for today! Stay strong and positive. I'll be praying for you and a little miracle.
I'm so sorry to hear the news you got on Friday. I was so hoping praying that it would be good. I, like so many others on here, understand and know how you feel and my heart goes out to you at this time. I know it's easier said than done, but please DO NOT feel like a failure. You are anything but that! It takes an enormous amount of courage and strength to go through what all of us go through with infertility issues and IVF cycles. I know it's hard but try and stay positive and take some time for yourself right now to relax and really think things through and pray about them.
My thoughts and prayers will be with you.
You know how to cheer me up:)
Thanks, girl - you are a great support to me, too and remember - you will make it soon, because you deserve it!!!
I pray for you and your BFP next month, Sister:)
