Hi
Thank goodness i have found this thread, boy i feel that i can relate to everyone and the saddened reality of what we have had to come to accept.
I wanted to get a second opinion from another fertility unit before we decided to make any decisions about the future. I sort of knew what was coming my way and the consultant confirmed that our chances were so slim to get pg. I felt hurt, shock and maybe a kind of relief at the same time. He did suggest that if we go for one more tx. then if it fails that we need to look at adoption or donor eggs...
I just wanted to escape and book the next plane out of here because it is such an overwhelming feeling.
When i discussed with my DH we looked at the option of a further tx, which this may be a possibility (like one for the road) or give up. I just want this whole thing over now, but i am so scared to make that move. We always feel may be the next one will be it? But hey you sort of know the outcome, but having to get your mind around giving it your best shot and knowing the chances are slim that is quite mental torture.Having to be postive and then dreading the thought of it failing and feeling that pain all over again. Plus accepting this is it for us. We now in the process of weighing up the options. Also my dh was not keen on adoption, but feels if we exhaust this route then this will be our next port of call. Hey there is some small relief after all, that there could be a little one on the horizon.
I hope i haven't gone on, but this is a strange place to be because the hope of having your own child is starting to fade away.
Reading your comments helps you to know that you are not alone and there is a life to be led..
Take care
