It’s all over

I’ve always wanted children but was waiting for the perfect scenario a partner my own house etc etc, at 37 I didn’t have any of them things so I decided to go down the donor sperm route doing IUI in 2018 I gave birth to my beautiful son the best thing in my life, but I had a longing for another child and a sibling for my beautiful son, so two failed IUI’s and three failed IVF’s and all savings and a massive loan later I’m no closer to this and now probably never will, but I did give it a really good go with my own eggs even tried all the different supplements to try and improve things to no avail

I am so sorry you are going through this please take care yourself, I am so going through this I had bfn on 31/5/22 this was my last chance to give my daughter a sibling I am 43 years and I have adenomyosis and my husband has low count and mobility I had 3 miscarriages all conceived naturally between 2013 and 2017 I had my daughter 2018 she was my 6th transfer and 5th egg retrieval I have had 2 transfer and 3 egg retrieval after her and nothing came out of it.I am a poor responder to ivf med with low amh I have given up als this cost more than 5,000 euros each time I don’t have the money and the emotional stress is way to much this hurts a lot but I have no choice my husband doesn’t want to keep trying also as he is 50 years this journey is not fair but it is what it it is. I hope you have all the support you need sending you lots of joy and hugs 🤗

Hi Marley. I feel you need to give yourself a huge pat on the back and look at what you have achieved - your son! You have tried every which way and ended up with heartache that you don't need. Yes, ideally a sibling would have been great, but you have your son to concentrate on so a HUGE well done from me! Diane
