Infertility

5 mo old baby boy & 16yr old mom in my office...

Why does that hurt so much?... but I'm trying to stay positive & realize that my time will come SOMETIME. It will not come when I want it, as we all can tell but I'm just bothered at times. It's hard when I have young moms in the office who don't watch their children & they swear & wearing parents wearing pjs into the office, just all bothers me. My boss is noticing my attitude & unsure if I wanna be here working anymore so I have to make changes.

Had WTF appt on friday & RE just thinks we are getting close & will be doing clomid with bravelle in may. IVF isn't recommended at this time but maybe in the future. DH does NOT want to pay for IVF right now, he says years from now =( but I guess I can't give up hope that it will happen sometime!

  • When I went to my first work-up appt and realized that this doc was also the only high-risk doc in the area (and therefore the only teen mom doc) I canceled my appt and left. I sat in the waiting room with a 16yo prego (she just got her license yesterday) and her 14 yo sister who were both being stupid and obnoxious. Too much for me.

    Expect MIRACLES!! Shocking surprise BFP 9/12/12 After 2 IUIs, 3 IVFs w/ICSI and 1 FET we have been blessed with a healthy baby girl born 26 August 2010! Image and video hosting by TinyPic Image and video hosting by TinyPic Pregnancy Ticker

    I have been busy at work & just kinda in a mood not to respond to posts, ya know?! I was gearing for the option of IVF & found a shared risk program with another dr, she doesn't accept my ins but is apart of the attain IVF. Current RE just *hopes or believes* it would/will happen without spending the $$ for IVF. We discussed it & the fact I was able to get 2 BFPs without IVF, he is still just holding out hope. DH is against spending that $$ right now. DH believes exercise & getting "my body to the best potential" will work. Right!. He is the one that says "why does it have to be NOW that you get pregnant, don't push & push & push for something & the outcome maybe something we can't handle, it will happen!"

    it does make since that since you've gotten pregnant 2 without ivf that it can certainly happen again! I'm glad you have a plan. One more question ( sorry to be annoying). Why clomid after you've been doing Gonal F?

    No, ask anyway any questions. I took clomid with my OB & was NOT monitored but got a BFP with him so I really don't know how i respond to clomid. I did do femara & bravelle with RE so I asked if maybe the injections could be TOO MUCH for my ovaries & said good question. It's basically just adding a new protocol, something I haven't tried. I'm doing bravelle injections. Options were 1) clomid & bravelle, 2 ) bravelle with small doses of hcg (not like you get at trigger) or 3 ) doing lupron & bravelle again. It's a guessing game on how you will respond & seeing what works I guess.

  • i know this feeling EXACTLY!  I work in a pediatric clinic in a inner city area where many teens get pregnant...so get many patient's who's parents are kids themselves... already had 19/20 year olds with many kids :-/  Then i too see how crappy they sometimes treat the kids and think to myself "why can they get to have a baby (or a few) and people like us cannot?!"  I also see a lot of foster kids - lots of drug babies in those cases... those drive me nuts!!!  But overall i actually love working with the kids - even if i cannot have my own at the moment i still love being able to interact with them, even if it is hard at times.

     Best of luck to you
