Our Fight Against Infertility

We have been married for 10 yrs. We have a beautiful 9yr old daughter, who is just amazing. We are ready for another addition to our family. We are ready to go, we just need a little help. With two failed IVF cycles and an IUI, we arent sure whats next!

Bad Eggs

Well, My cycle review went good, I guess. He told me I have bad eggs. The rest of the cycle went great, except that my eggs are poor quality and they weren't growing fast enough, so they didn't implant. This is not really what I wanted to hear, but what are you gonna do. I felt very comfortable with my Dr. and he really gave me some hope that it WILL work this time around. We will change a few things, maybe my meds and do a few more test. He will be doing a ?Hystersonogram?. He will take a camera and look in my uterus. Great, right? Who wants to hear they have bad eggs and that he will be looking in my uterus. Not looking forward to that. We also talked about when we will do this again. He said to make sure I am relaxed and don't have alot going on........I have a 9yr old daughter, so if we were waiting for NOTHING to be going on, this would never happen! I think we will take this month and relax, then start meds next month. Which means my egg retrieval would be in May. I guess that works for us. It is really hard to fork out that kind of money again, with no guarantee. Its scary, but we are willing.
I'm getting excited about it again. Not excited for the daily shots in the butt, but just thought of another baby makes the shots well worth it. I will update anything new as it comes along!
