Ivf- second round following death of baby

[Hopeandhell]

Hi All,

Finally managed to get back onto the ivf train. We’ve had a series of counselling and are ready to start again. Scratch is booked for the 7th September and ivf month after.

After our loss of our baby girl earlier this year at 24plus 6 days (baby lived 23 days) I just feel immensely stressed and weary. I’m trying to stay positive but just worry that I’m going to end up being someone who was lucky once and no more.

Just a rant I guess...can anyone give me any hope of two successful ivf rounds in a row? My best friend had two successful babies from one cycle. Hope I’m the same.

So sorry to hear of your loss, sweetheart.

You are doing soooo great to overcome this and to come back!

Stay strong and hoping this is the one for youXXX 🤞

[Hopeandhell in reply to hannahkc]

Thank you sweetie. I hope so too. It’s definitely been the worst and most traumatic experience. We just feel that she deserves a sibling and that we deserve a chance to be parents. She’s put us on the road to parenthood. Xxx

Oh my goodness cannot begin to imagine what you have been through. Just wanted to wish you all the luck in the world for this transfer. If there is a god up there then you should be given a very precious gift as you absolutely deserve it. I admire your strength for carrying on, stay strong and think positive. You got this and I pray you get your second miracle 🙏🏻😘 x

Thank you, that’s made me really emotional. What lovely words. I hope for a second miracle too and a full term baby. X

Now you are one of the reasons that we are called warriors. And you are a true warrior. My goodness, what a wonderful strong lady. There are no words that I can say to bring you any comfort but I am so sure that your baby angel is flying high and is watching over you just waiting to bring you your next Miracle and welcome their younger baby sibling into your arms and into your family. Good luck my lovely by god you deserve it. Sending love, thoughts and hugs to you and your family xxxx

Gosh so sorry for your loss, and I admire you so much for carrying on. I have heard of lots of good news stories about successful cycles back to back and my consultant said if you have been pregnant from ivf you have a higher chance of getting so again. My only words of wisdom would be after my most recent MC (not nearly as sad as your experience obviously) I felt just like you going into my third round. I ended up really negative because I couldn’t believe it could work again and felt like I had had my allotted BFP. Unfortunately my cycle didn’t work (loads of reasons why not that don’t apply to you) and since then I’ve realised I wasn’t quite ready. Whilst I needed to feel like I was doing something positive I had missed the need for positive thinking. I guess all I am saying is don’t rush until you feel really good about doing it again. Wishing you masses of luck I am sure you will be the lucky one xx

I don't have any advice, I just wanted to say that I am very sorry for your loss and that you are an amazing women to get through that and start IVF again. You have got immense strength and courage so don't be too hard on yourself that you are feeling like that.

Welcome back, I think you are an amazingly strong person and wish you all the luck for your next round xx

Oh dear I am so sorry to hear about your loss.

Well done you to find the strengths to do it again. You are a strong woman. I wish you all the the best with your upcoming treatment. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience of second pregnancy with ivf but if it works once, I don’t see why it can’t work another time. Take care x

[Solly-44]

I’m so sorry for your loss. Your strength is amazing, and there won’t be a single woman on here who won’t be willing you on with all their hearts.

Wishing you all the luck for your cycle xx

[Hopeandhell]

Thank you to all that have replied. I don’t feel very strong and there have been some days where I wished the ground would swallow me up. I’m slowly getting to the point where I’m almost functioning again. Thank you all for the support. Will update regularly.
