I was just wondering if there is anyone on here who is going through a similar journey to me.
I’m am currently on my fourth IVF cycle and I’m struggling to be positive. The first cycle resulted in our DS who is now 3.5 and amazing. We desperately want a sibling for him though. The second and third we had ICI frosties. The second one we thought was unsuccessful but it turned out to be positive and an ectopic. It resulted in a serious medical emergency when it erupted and I was lucky to survive. Despite this, we seen that as a positive because technically the treatment worked, it was just unlucky to be an ectopic. However, here we are on our fourth treatment and I’m struggling to be positive. We’re going for a fresh cycle again but this is our very last treatment regardless of the outcome. I just can’t face it anymore. I’m 39.5 now and I feel we just really need to get on with our lives after this treatment.
Despite the success we’ve had, I’m seriously struggling to be positive or excited about this treatment. The buserelin is beginning to make me feel a bit down too and my work is horrendously busy (I’m a secondary school head of department), all of which is contributing to the situation. I really need some inspiration.
Just wondering if anyone else has a similar journey going on or if anyone else has had a similar journey with a positive outcome.
