We have been through quite an ordeal in having a child, we have miscarried every time I have become pregnant by 10 weeks, had one baby born early and very sick with Trisomy 9, and this last one was a tubal pregnancyleaving me with only 1 tube. I am left with the desire to try just once more. My husband is scared to death of losing me (I could have died last time) but we are trying one last time. We are using a donor so the genetic issues won't be the problem...I go in on Wed. to try. Please pray that by some miracle this can happen for us. I want my daughter to have someone to grow up with, I think all kids deserve a sibling... to love, fight with, play with, and share life with. I will let you all know in a couple of weeks if it worked or not. At that time IF it does work I will need lots of prayers that I can carry throughout the entire time with a healthy baby, something I have never gotten to do.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU- for all of your prayers, ongoing support through all of this as a mom and a photographer.

Best wishes...I can't imagine how hard this road has been for you. The energy you have to commit to this and not give up HOPE, is the best medicine. Best of luck and please let us know.

Thanks to all of you... I am getting a little nervous about tomorrow, knowing this is it.... If it doesn't work out no one can say we didn't try. LOL I just don't think we can afford much more and it is draining on us. I'll let you all know what happens in a couple of weeks...
You are all a wonderful support when I don't feel comfortable telling even my close friends about our decision (they tend to think I am nuts) Thanks for ALWAYS being here when I need you!

Well I did the US today to see if the eggs are ready... I have one good one on the left (where I still have a tube) and the lining looks good too, so we are going to try on Friday! Keep your fingers and toes crossed. I'll keep you posted. Thanks!

Cheryl.... You know I haven't even been keeping track the best. Our insurance does cover some things like the visits, the US, and sometimes meds. The last time I spent $500 or better just on the meds and the donor sperm... and that was not being even remotely picky and the cheapest place we could find. LOL That wasn't including Dr. visits, the US, the HCG shot to release the egg, etc. I would say we are looking at $1500 a try.... but I am not for sure... we have done this several times now- so it all adds up, and it doesn't help when the outcome isn't good like last time with the etopic and needing surgery.

Ok, so do they remove your eggs, fertilize then implant?

no I am just using a donor for sperm and then artificial insemination.... too poor for IVF. lol

Thanks Lyssa, and all..... I am nervious- I usually am not too nervious, but I think that knowing this is it is scary to me. I really want Trinity to have someone to grow up with and play (fight) etc. I am scared to death even if it works I will lose this one as well.... I have not quite 12 hours til we go in to do it.... hopefully I'll get some sleep. LOL I'll let you know how all goes in a couple of weeks... I HATE the waiting game! Patience isn't one of my strong points. :)

Jessi,
Been thinking about you all day today. Praying everything went okay and will continue to go okay until you deliver a bouncing baby ???. I know waiting is a major pain and is not one of my strong suit either. Please keep us all informed. We are all rooting for you and your family that this time will be a winner.

Well today went fine (kindda takes any fun out of the "trying" though... LOL) I won't know anything more for a couple of weeks, but they said everything looked really good- lining was better than it has been in the past and the count and motility of the donor was really good as well. So all we can do now is pray and wait.

Well... the waiting game is over, and it seems it didn't work.... GRRRRRR
I was less than happy to see my "visitor" but I guess this is the way it is supposed to be. I don't know if I can ever understand why... but I have to live with it.
On another note.... they want to me to go on a birthcontrol to help control my endometriosis, and avoid the obvious..... Anyone know of anything good (little side affects like turning me into an elephant... LOL or other crazy things!) They recommended an IUD, but I am not sure how I really feel about it. Any advice welcome.
Thanks.
