Hello,
I'm currently on a break from TTC but am about to get back on the wagon and try again. We've done 4 or 5 IUI's (i've literally lost count) and IVF and two frozen embryo transfers. The IVF resulted in miscarriage

Is there anyone out here that is in a similar situation as me and is scared to start trying again?
I hope this site is for me, I'm so incredibly lonely with all this.

Thanks in advance!
Julesie

Hi Julesie

I have suffered through 2 miscarriages and am on to IVF. I am being positive and believe that will help in some way. I cant say I am scared, just nervous. We are self pay, so have limited number of tries...yikes! Thinking of you, Ann

Hi Sas! Thank you for posting to me, that means a lot. THat was my first post ever on this site.

I really feel for you on your m/c's as I have been through two total mc's as well. The IVF mc was the worst though.

I too am self pay! In 2004, we spent over 100,000 bucks total on fertility treatment. Luckily we have two sets of parents that are sensitive to our plight to become parents and help us when they can.

How long have you been trying? Have you been online long?

Hi julesie,

Thank you for your thoughts as mine go to you as well. I sincerely feel for you and the pain you have went through. Its totally understandable you want and need to take a break right now. I think those loses are ones we will carry throughout our lives.
Oh my goodess...it sure does get expensive doesn't it? Actually I am to call freedom drugs to have my meds sent over for this first round of IVF tomorrow (yikes). I just cant let myself think about the cost. Its hard enough to have people saying it takes on average 3 tries to be successful. I hope January is lucky for us. When do you think you will be trying again? Are you doing a FET? I do not want to intrude on your earlier cycle and bring you any more pain.
Julesie were you overwhelmed by all the drug information and meds? Thats how I am feeling right now. I am a RN...but obviously fertility drugs are not my area of experience. Gosh, just reading the instructions on the menupor (think thats the spelling) is exhausting. I haven't even gotten all my meds yet. I know over time it will become old hat..but right now...all I can say is wow. I think the bcp's just have me more on edge and nervous.
I have been online for years...cant live without our pcs. But just found this website this morning. I was looking for an online buddy...for support. Sorry this post is so long...Ann
