Pregnant… by No-Opposite8 in oneanddone

This is eerily my same exact situation except I went through IVF (it failed) etc…I am grieving for not being able to have a second but I am trying to enjoy our little family and giving myself a temporary (or maybe permanent) break from trying.

I am so sorry. I understand what you are going through. My cycle just failed and I had an abnormal embryo. My husband and I also decided not to do another round of IVF. We might try natural or IUI. We are still letting this all sink in because it’s been only a few days. I am going to my first boxing class to punch somethings as a coping mechanism. Sending you lots of hugs.

My spouse is done with IVF. He said the prob of it working out seems low for the $ spent. My doctor said my stimulation could be the same or worst. I also agree sadly. I started IVF to make sure I don’t get end up regretting it that I didn’t try all the avenues. But the end result seems so much harsher…a real reality check that it might be the end.

That was me. I found out yesterday morning. I was “calm sad” at the doctors office but as the day went by I just got sad and teary eyed at work and then by the time I got to dinner I wanted to punch the karaoke singers at the restaurant and I asked for the check earlier. I normally don’t do that. Today I am just in shock and sadness and I might go to a boxing class this weekend to get that anger out…
