It's just a matter of them surviving the thaw process (which is a 90% plus chance of survival) and then implanting.

I always feel like I am just rambling so it is very humbling to hear. Thank you. Although, I have to say that I have very much enjoyed reading your blog too and you write very well yourself.<br /><br />The meds are SO expensive! I was on the max dose possible so that was a limiting factor to choosing to do another round of IVF with my own eggs. Seemed like a waste of money if I wasn't going to produce the eggs anyway. That's awesome you got so much of yours covered! I am so happy for you right now and your positive pregnancy!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507432917936364757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-43106974115876631092013-02-03T15:31:13.080-08:002013-02-03T15:31:13.080-08:00I'm sorry, it sounds like you've had a rou...I'm sorry, it sounds like you've had a rough go of it too.

It's probably the only aspect I get really jealous of reading about when some couples get to try again, and again, and again because they are so fortunate to have insurance coverage. Not fortunate in the fact that they need it though.... And I don't begrudge them for it, just am jealous and envious of the resources they have to keep trying.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507432917936364757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-36246564334683175402013-01-31T17:49:35.732-08:002013-01-31T17:49:35.732-08:00Aww, thank you!

It wasn't a good situation. <br />You asked about LFCA - http://lostandfoundandconnectionsabound.blogspot.com/ <br />It's a website that helps connect folks in the blogosphere around IF issues.<br />As per "following" I think I just have things on google reader; I don't think I enacted the following button. But thanks! So far I'm not posting much lately. I gave my blog address to someone I know IRL, and then I don't trust them anymore, so I haven't been posting here.I Believe in Miracleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07062124038472752680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-85204571266732274322013-01-31T04:46:54.563-08:002013-01-31T04:46:54.563-08:00It's wonderful that you've been able to ta...It's wonderful that you've been able to take some good from this awful experience. I think you are absoluetly right, I felt the same. Even after my losses I was so grateful to have had the opportunity to be pregnant, to carry my little ones for whatever short time, and to be reminded of my potential. I wouldn't have traded that for anything.<br /><br />For what it's worth, I hope that there are great things ahead for you guys, and that the FET will bring you the family you've always dreamed of. In any case, it's so great to know what a strong team you two are! <br /><br />Sending hugs.Sadiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325203869605294768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-23309947004341585752013-01-30T20:47:52.726-08:002013-01-30T20:47:52.726-08:00Omgoodness, that might just be one of the sweetest...Omgoodness, that might just be one of the sweetest things anyone has ever said to me!
