One of those days...advice pls

Hi all
I am an "oldie" and have really been absent from the boards which I'm really sorry about. Busy with the little guy!!

Anyhow. I was currently all set the past few weeks with a fet cycle. Preparing myself that I will be pregnant this wknd after the transfer. Things were great until I got my updt immune panel results today. Dr b cancelled the cycle due to elevated numbers and he did not feel comfortable going through w it


So here I am today so mentally exhausted from preparing myself for baby 2. Dr appts. Meds. Shots. Blood work

Now I have to start a new protocol and add more meds and change my diet to gf. I feel so defeated and almost like I don't want to go through this again. I have a beautiful baby boy. And I so badly want him to have a sibling. But selfishly I don't want to keep going through this either. Help. Advice. Opinions. I need someone to talk w

Thanks Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I felt the same way last summer. I love my DD so much and wish I could give her a sibling but I just can't go through treatment anymore. She was conceived after our 2nd ivf cycle, and almost 3 years of ttc. We attempted another cycle when DD was almost 18 months. It was so trying emotionally and physically that my DH and I decided we are done for now. It was not an easy decision, and not sure the right decision, but was right for us at the time.

Wish I had some words of wisdom but I don't. There are days when it doesn't seem as bad as the first time and days where it is worse. I hate having to take my precious time away from DD for appointments but also know it's the only chance of giving her a sibling. No o e should have to go through this hell a second time. I am so done with drs , meds, early appts, driving out of my way and trying to just be grateful for what I do have. Chat Icon Chat Icon

you have been through it once and got your DS and you know you want a sibling for him so as crappy as this news is you have to move ahead & stay positive.
You have been through it once before so you know what to expect.

I will be starting the process again next mo and although I am dreading this doing it all again, I so badly want a sibling for DD.

Stay positive - as hard as it is. I had a hard time getting pregnant with my 1st - and even harder with my second, but I don't regret a second of it! So worth sticking it out and rolling with the punches!! You can do this!
