I have been reading your blog for years and have always enjoyed your beautiful taste and content. Following these IVF posts and updates, I am so feeling for you and wishing you the best. I am sure it is a little awkward for a total stranger to be asking what you have or haven’t medically explored, but, as it is something I have personal experience with, I wanted to put it out there. Has anyone discussed Endometriosis with you? It is common, but many doctors miss it for years and aren’t properly equipped to treat it. This leads to under-diagnosis or mis-diagnosis and it can take a long time for a woman to find out she has it. For many, there are years of extreme pain and discomfort prior to diagnosis (as was the case with me). Others have no symptoms until they experience great difficulty in trying to become pregnant– it is a leading cause of fertility issues. It took me so long to get an answer, so when I was finally diagnosed with severe Endometriosis four years ago, it was a relief to finally have a name for what was wrong. There are some very good surgeons in the States that specialize in it and a handful in Europe as well.

I am hoping for nothing but the best for you and your husband!

I, too, have faith that you are meant to have a baby. Sending good thoughts and strength to you and your husband.

My husband I tried to get pregnant for 2.5 years (I was 28 when we started trying) – and 7 rounds of IVF later (2 miscarriages as well), I am finally sitting here with my beautiful 13 week old baby girl August (through an IVF PGS, a real “Hail Mary” transfer), who is so special and so loved. I hope this gives you hope and strength through a dark time – so many women go through this, yet it is so infrequently talked about! I also highly recommend the book Conquering Infertility by Alice Domar – it was a real life saver for me. Stay strong!
