Fertility & Reproductive Health: Meet others and share your story

Hi,
My husband and I have been on TTC journey since we got married in 2018. We have only had one pregnancy in November of 2018 that ended in a difficult miscarriage at 10 weeks. We had gone in for what was supposed to be a happy 9 week, see your baby for the first time, ultrasound. Only our ultrasound showed a 6 week baby with no heart beat. Since then we have not had any more positive pregnancy results.
We started looking into IVF in August of 2019 and have an unexplained infertility diagnosis. We started IVF injection in the beginning of January and had our first egg retrieval on January 17th with 17 eggs retrieved. Of those only 6 fertilized and 4 made it to blast. We transplanted 2 embryos on January 22nd and found on February 5th that none of them stuck. We are looking at completing a frozen transfer in April and trying really hard to stay optimistic.

Welcome to the group! I am so happy that you are here and hopefully having some people who can somewhat relate to what you are going thru will help as you move along the process. While each of us have a different journey we all know what it is like to start and how lonesome it can be! I am so sorry that your journey has gone the way that it has to this point. I am sending positive vibes your way with your next transfer in April!!

I’m so sorry for the heartache you two have had in such a short period of time. It can feel impossible to stay positive sometimes, I totally get that. After three retrieval’s we have never had any to freeze. We start feeling insane for doing it again and expecting different results, but we never have any answers. Let me know if you ever want to vent or swap stories.
