Today this picture came up on my "memories from today" on my Amazon photos.
Four years ago today, I did my 6th transfer. The doctor gave me this paper with the embryos and I was like yeah yeah. Been there. Done that. No babies. Just do what you need to do. I'll go home and rest and then I'll get my period two weeks later. I know how this works. He said one of these could potentially be your babies. Be positive. I told him to not talk to me that way. :/ I was in such a horrible place with ivf. I felt no connection to the embryos like I did in prior ivf's. I was blah about the whole thing.
Four years later, three of those 6 little "bubbles" are Charlie, Daniel and Olivia.
I cannot believe how far we've come. I cannot believe all it took to get here and how far past we are from the cycling, the medicine, the money, the disappointment.
We're on the other side and although most days I want to launch my children into outer space, I can't help but feel so blessed to be where we are today.
Congrats on being on the other side. It's such an emotional journey and so devastating to get that BFN year after year. Hug your 3 littles extra today.
Me: 32, PCOS Him: 30, 4.5% morph, TTC: 10/11/12 After 5 failed Clomid cycles and 3 failed Femara cycles with HCG triggers, IVF #1 w/ICSI April 2015 resulted in a BFP! Our little Newt was born January 2016!
Awww! The Ivf/If journey was super stressful for me too. It is amazing how that moment when it all shifts is truly a miracle. Hugs to you! Thanks for sharing.
