aww...thank you so much for replying. :) I feel like I know you already. It's amazing how no matter what you have to be strong right and just continue to hope for the best. You will be in my prayers. I know that God will bless you..... I actually have what they call unexplained infertility. So I'm not sure whats going on. It's so hard to remain positive, its really trying. One day you wake up and alls good and then you never know how the following day will be. We have a mixture of emotions once we find out we're pregnant, we're happy and want to celebrate but then the worrying kicks in. Even when all goes well, a mothers worrying never does end right! :) Um so yeah, I'll be 39 also in November. Whens ur bday? My daughter turns 5 on June 10th :) So here's looking forward to being blessed with another person in my life and hopefully adding an "s" to that from this wonderful forum. Everyone is so amazing and supportive. Looking forward to sharing more thoughts with them all.... Thanks for the good wishes. I will keep you posted on my results from Tuesday. Thank you so much and stay strong.....
That's great news! You will be in TWW very soon again!
And I will be here to support you:)
I pray for you and you know how to reach me, right?
xoxoxo
Hi! I'm happy you have found us - this is the best forum ever!
I'm 38, too (well, 39 in June) and unfortunately my first ivf wasn't 100 % successful...
Still pregnant, but waiting for a closure.
You are so blessed having a beautiful girl already..but I totally understand: you have more love to give and your little one wants a sibling:)
Do they know why can't you have children naturally?
I have not very good genes, my FSH is high and ovarian reserve diminished.
I pray for for a strong heartbeat for you on Tuesday!
hello everyone....I cannot begin to tell you how moving it has been to read all of your replies. There is so much love and support here and I could not help but to be pulled in. My heart and prayers go out to you all. I am 38 years old and on my second cycle of IVF. My first IVF cycle was a fresh one over the Christmas holiday and it failed. I had an FET on 4/20 and so far so good. I am blessed (3rd try of IUI) with a beautiful 4 going on 5 year old little girl :) She is truly a blessing. She prays with us at night to God to bless us with a baby so that she could be a big sister.:).... Although I did explain to her that although we got a BFP we still have to keep hoping and praying for the best. I go for my first u/s on Tuesday. I to searched online for forums but the only site that has pulled me in is this one. It is so comforting to read and share what you are all going through. I can relate with all the emotions, the ups and downs and feel connected to you all. I hope I can join in and share my thoughts with you as well. Let us all continue to be hopeful and remain poisitive and never lose our faith. The hardest part of it all is the waiting. But God will answer all of our prayers.... Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and many blessing to you all....
Juana please stay strong and dont give up. This is not the end. Take time out and maybe go away for a while and just relax and the start again. Im praying for you like always.
I went to see my doctor yesterday and she said that everything went perfect in my last IVF cycle and it is unexplainable why it didnt work. So im going on the Short cycle/protocol which means i can start in a week. Im excited and hoping this wil be my last cycle. Has anyone heard or had a short cycle? I will be on different meds.
Best of luck all and baby dust. xxxx
There is so much power on this forum! Please, God, can you see us???
I don't have any frozen. I had only one egg to transfer, so I will have to start over again.
It's time for retrospective thinking for me. I was so sure my body was healed and I can conquer the World! I've had many health problems in past (in addition to being depressed).
I am this petite, fragile person with not so good genes. I suffered from fibromyalgia and cfs for a very long time, then I stopped digesting food - almost completely and my weight went down to 96 pounds. Then slowly and gradually, thanks to my chiropractor, nutritionist and couple more doctors, I got to the point that I was finally back on my feet again. Then I lost my job and we decided it's now or never! But so many things are beyond our control! Determination and strong will aren't enough. I wish they were.
But maybe it's for our sake... I sometimes have these weird moments: Let's say, I'm at a intersection, the light changes to yellow and I'm turning left. There is one car ahead of me and I usually go as a second (I know I shouldn't;)). Something happens and in a split second I decide to wait... The car ahead of me turns left and gets crashed by a pick-up coming from opposite direction (on red light of course). I swear, these things happen to me from time to time. So, maybe we are meant to wait... Maybe our pregnancies would be life threatening or something would be wrong with the babies. This is my way of thinking sometimes.
Anyway, I could be writing for 2 hours, but don't want to take all the space here.
Take care, stay strong and let's pray for our time to come!
