I'm still here (now)

Sorry I've been away for a while

We've been trying since aug/sept for #2

2 failed Iuis and a very early mc.

Now we are out of donor sperm . And none available to buy

I'm sad . I'm mad - that we used 2 vials one cycle, that the crappy nurse did my iui twice and those were the 2 that failed. That I'm old.

I was done. But within a day I'm reconsidering. We all want a 2nd. So a new hunt begins.

Anyway .... advice and experience welcome. Thanks for listening

I'm so sorry. We tried with three different donors before being successful with IVF. It gets exhausting finding a new one. I know it's different since you're likely wanting a full sibling and we absolutely understand that. But at the end of the day the way we're creating our families is different and however you decide to do it will be right for you.

Hugs.

Sorry to hear that your ttc isn't going well. )c: Don't give up hope... it'll happen. *hugs*

Oh no, I am so sorry!!
We used two different donors, finding the 2nd was torture... and we ended up doing IVF with the very last vial from our first donor in hopes of freezing some for later, but there were no viable eggs.
6 tries and a stillbirth before IVF worked.
It's a maddening process.
Don't give up hope!

I'm so sorry things haven't been going well!! I agree with what others said that we're already creating our own families so however it works out for you will be the perfect thing for your family! Stay strong!!

One thing I swear by and not everyone does it is acupuncture. I did it for months leading up to my iuis and then the day of my iui my clinic does a pre and post iui treatment. Not all places have this but I do believe in the combination of western and eastern medicine.

I wish I could do acupuncture. The closest place for me to get it done it almost 2 hours away.
Have I mentioned lately how much I hate living way up here? lol
