Interesting about your co-worker Maya: well she didnt seem to be an "infertility knowledge freak", instead she was laid back and confident (4 cells dont make a blasto, but she was happy not knowing). Anyways, I feel she had more options than we heterosexual couples have, and maybe thats why she was so confident! yes, the couple in total has 2 wombs and 2 pairs of ovaries, good sperm can be found in any bank. Having said that, their chances were double as good as our chances, dont you think thats the reason why? And yes, the little voice is killing me too. Love your writing.

What if they decided later that they would want a second child? Or did she go into it fully believing that both embryos would implant and they were going to have twins? Bless her for her niavity, and sympathy for her lesson in reality. <br /><br />As for you, I'm still holding out hope and thinking about you a ton.

I haven't even taken my first Lupron shot and already I have a list of 20 things that could possibly go wrong in my journey to a take-home, healthy baby... and every day I think of more things to add to the list. There is something very satisfying about drawing a line through each potential hurdle as I pass it. <br /><br />The few family members who know about this trial often say things like "When this works..." and "How awesome to think that this time next year y'all will have a baby!" I envy their innocence. I wrestle with the overwhelming desire to burst their bubble and let them know how I really believe this is going to play out. To tell them about all the stories on all the blogs I have read. To give them statistics. To show them my list of 20 possible hurdles. Mostly I leave them with their positive attitudes and enjoy playing pretend with them for a few minutes before returning back to the roller-coaster of terror in my own mind.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279956998271374929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204645813125946014.post-71053355847557908602014-01-28T16:02:36.851-05:002014-01-28T16:02:36.851-05:00I am sorry to hear about Maya's miscarriage.

She never once mentioned trying IUI and I didn't want to pry. Perhaps because they're both older they were told to go straight to IVF (like I was)? Or maybe they tried it and she didn't talk about it. Either way, I would have thought they'd been through enough that she wouldn't be acting so blissfully unaware.Aramishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12275274008426941898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204645813125946014.post-65134056265864793012014-01-27T21:36:41.656-05:002014-01-27T21:36:41.656-05:00Yeah, we predictably didn't speak about her of...Yeah, we predictably didn't speak about her offer when she was telling me about her miscarriage.

I think, for most of us, the little voice is much more common, reminding us of all the ways things can go wrong. But the good news is, even if the little voice is chattering away, it doesn't mean she's right. Thinking nothing but good thoughts for you and your little ball of cells!Darylhttp://soonafamily.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204645813125946014.post-36896998284780210892014-01-27T19:36:56.535-05:002014-01-27T19:36:56.535-05:00Ah, I haaate that mother loving little voice, but ...Ah, I haaate that mother loving little voice, but at the same time I hate the naivety of the people who don't have that little voice.

It saddens me to know that she will likely be plagued by that terrible, bitchy voice that drives us nuts during the two week wait. Ignorance is bliss.

I mean, they didn't even do an IUI (or maybe they did?), so it couldn't have been all roses and teddy bears. Oh well, maybe it's swagger and bravado to drown out the little voice. I, of course take the opposite approach and listen intently to that little voice. Which is why I'm already planning for my DE cycle. <br /><br />Thinking sticky thoughts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204645813125946014.post-17256157324249143972014-01-27T15:25:56.402-05:002014-01-27T15:25:56.402-05:00That woman sounds tremendously tacky, in a generou...That woman sounds tremendously tacky, in a generous sort of way. Giving away her booze and embabies. It mostly makes me want to vomit.<br /><br />I too had a friend offer me her leftover embryos. However several years later we are both still childless. It's weird to think about and I wonder if she remembers saying it. <br /><br />I wonder what it would be like not to have the little voice too. In a way it's one of the biggest things that keeps me from wanting to deck some insensitive people. I remember the way I thought before I had IF. I'd like to think I wouldn't be 'that' bad, but I also know I wouldn't have been as sensitive as I should have been either. <br /><br />Bellehavendrive - I totally hate the little voice too.

I too have wondered how the experience of treatments might be different for people whoa re doing it because they are single or in a same sex relationship, vs infertility diagnosis. Do they experience the same feelings of loss? Obviously this is just one story, not a study, but it is interesting none the less. <br /><br />I dont know if I would have wanted to go through IVF without the voice, ,to be honest. When we decided to do DE, the voice got quieter because I figured - healthy eggs, healthy sperm, what could go wrong? and obviously, a lot went wrong. The voice prepared me for the fact the ivf is not 100% effective!
