What's new

Please, prayers and positive thoughts update 8/31 post #46

You're in my prayers too. I felt the same way about my first pregnancy, and I worried and fretted, but now I have 3 healthy kids. I'm praying that you'll have peace as you wait and that you'll soon have the child you desire.
 
I am definitely thinking about you, Roni. It is so hard when the doctor is negative. Like everyone else said, try really hard to stay positive. Hoping you have some positive news on Friday!
 
Aww sweetie, it breaks my heart see you hurting so much. I will absolutely keep you in my thoughts, and I want more than anything for you to get positive news on Friday. I worry about you, though, because it seems like you've lost hope. I've never been in your situation; but I am going through some pretty major issues right now too, so I know what the inner turmoil feels like and I know how much it sucks. Roni, grab on to the inner strength that I know you have to help you get through this. Have faith in whatever higher power guides you, and please don't lose hope that you will have a happy ending. And while I'm not a religious person, I do believe in the power of prayer...and you've got a lot of people praying for you. Know that you're not alone, you definitely have us here!

Big, big hugs because I know you could use some right now. Stay strong sweetie.
 
Hi- Thanks for the update. Your doctor is being conservative and careful because he wants to cover his butt. That's fine because as you (and others) have said, there are women with low levels who have gone on to have healthy babies. Try to keep breathing deeply and visualizing that yolk sac on the screen at the next appointment. I'll be sending you good thoughts!
 
Roni, my heart just aches for you, but I am full of hope and prayers for a positive outcome.

Sadly, I've been where you are. I spent many years living in the land of the slow double and not seeing the yolk sac on ultrasounds. I had 5 miscarriages between my daughters, so I well remember that feeling of dread during the wait. I know it's a hard time for you and it can take so much faith and perseverance to get through it. You WILL get through it though. Either way. You will. Above all, remember that doctors and science are not infallible. No matter what they say can or should happen, there are times when they are wrong. Happily so. My own little slow double just started kindergarten last week. Keep the faith. {{hugs}}
 
Hi Friends,
Unfortunately the news isn't good. The ultrasound showed two very small sacs today which were much smaller than before. They have told me I will definitely miscarry. I am so heartbroken. We can't afford to repeat the treatments I got with the study. We are going to continue trying maybe with medication and the old fashioned way. I don't have much hope I will get pregnant without insemination which I fear we can't afford. I will have to pay for everything from medication to bloodwork to ultrasounds and insemination out of pocket. Since I'm disabled I just have Medicare which won't cover infertility.

I want to thank all of you so much for your thoughts, prayers, and kind words. They helped carry me through this. When I was struggling I would read through this thread and feel uplifted. I just have to find the strength to pick up the pieces, get through however long it takes me to pass this pregnancy, and figure out our next step in our journey to become a family. You ladies are truly amazing and supportive and and one heck of a community.

On the positive side of things for the first time in many months I feel like scrapping. If only I knew what to scrap. I need to find something happy.

All of my love to you ladies, Roni
 
Sorry to hear the terrible news. :(

But, don't count yourself out of the game. If anything, this proved that you are able to conceive. It just wasn't a good one THIS TIME. The next one will be.
 
Oh dear, sweetie. I'm so very sorry for this news. :(

Don't ever forget. Ever ever. Hope is stronger.

I wrap you in prayer and will be hoping hard for you. And I send you ((hugs)).
 
I'm so, so sorry to hear this :( But Angie's right, don't give up yet and have faith. So sorry you're going through this. xo
 
Roni, I am so sorry. Fertility issues are the hardest thing ever. I cried many times over them. I was finally blessed with one miracle with meds. My 2 best friends struggled even more than I did with pg loss, failed treatments, etc but were finally both blessed: one with treatments and one with adoption. I will pray that someway you will be too. Big hugs.
 
I am so very sorry to hear this, Roni. It's okay to feel sad but I'm with Angie in hoping that the next time will be the one for you. My best friend struggled for seven years, meds, invitro. Their last invitro worked. Keep positive, even though I know it's hard right now. I like to think that all of our life experiences teach us something for the next experience, both good and bad. So next time you are due for something GREAT!
 
(((((((((HUGE HUGE HUG for YOU & Your HUSBAND))))))))))))

I agree with Angie, too. This is just once. There's always some kind of hope.
 
Oh Roni, I'm soooooo sorry sweetie... I, along with many others have been there and know the pain you are going through and the waiting for it to end is an awful mix of emotions because it's just so hard to believe and you want so badly for them to be wrong... Please don't let hope die... My first is a clomid baby, then I had 4 miscarriages while on Clomid again... After the fourth miscarriage we did IVF and was pregnant with twins and lost one of them at 7 weeks... but then I got pregnant with our third while nursing and thinking I could never get pregnant nor have a viable pregnancy without meds and I have this amazing miracle 3rd child toddling around me right now.... I also have many friends who have or are currently going through the same thing... you just never know so please don't give up hope... you've got my continued prayers and tears and love and hugs... I really wish I could make your dreams and desires come true (((hugs)))

I'm so, so sorry to hear the news, Roni. How frustrating. With time, I am absolutely sure you will figure out the perfect plan for you and your family. I'm sending you lots of very squeezy hugs. :hug
 
Oh, Roni, I am so sorry. I just wanted to let you know that my thoughts are still with you.
 
I'm so sad for you :( I will pray for you. I was blessed (why IDK some days) I don't feel special at all. I got my tubes tied after my 3rd and I told God that it was time someone else was blessed like I was. I'm confident that while this struggle will be difficult, you will be able to complete your family. I do hope for a speedy recovery for you physically and emotionally. I pray that you will find a miracle in this!
