It’s confirmed. Everything seems good enough internally to go on with our 3rd round of trying to start a family.
I finally got my pelvic scan results and even though this is all positive I’m really struggling. Yes it was a scan to confirm all was groovy to go forward but also to see if it had done any damage to me internally. I’d be 6 months pregnant now and it hurts to be reminded of what we did.
I’m totally petrified about starting again if I’m honest.
What if that was my only success?
What if I have genetic issues again?
What if it was fluke?
I seem to have such bad luck, what if I’m never a mum?
My head is swirling and I can’t let anyone see how sad and scared I am. I throw on the veil of smiles and positivity and try move through the day and I think this is how it will be for awhile.
I keep dreaming that I muck up this next round and waste money or I’ve had one where they tell me I’ll never have a baby and she was our only go.
This IVF/pregnancy year has been like a bad dream where you have to relive it over and over and I am actually going to have to do this very soon. Reliving the whole thing with Needles, meds, constant internals and scans. Emotions all over the place, mood swings, fear, excitement, anxiety and then all this time holding back excitement of “what if this works!??” As I don’t want to jinx it or get my hopes up again. Even then I’ll live in fear until im in my 3rd trimester as I’ll worry something will go wrong.
Our last fresh cycle ended in a BFN (big fat negative) so I don’t have much faith in this round if I’m honest. It feels like a process to just get the eggs we need for a FET (Frozen embryo transfer).
So, let the journey begin anyway and let’s see where we get to with this round.
Bring on the needles, suppositories and the bathroom runs. I’ll enjoy my hot showers and hot water bottles while I can before I have to try and convince my embrobaby to stick through the power of.... nothing.... Hope and prayers I guess.
