So many kids around...just a vent.

in Trouble TTC

My H's brother and his family are staying at our house this weekend with their 3 kids ages 6, 4 and 2. His cousin, wife and 6-month old are also coming over. They got pregnant like a month after getting married while we've been TTC for 3.5 yrs.

As bad as it sounds, the only saving grace is that my H's kids ( my stepkids) won't be here this wknd. So I don't have to feel like the only one that is not contributing to the family and be the only adult without a child (at least for this wknd).

Wish me luck.

    I'm sorry you're feeling this way. Seeing my H with his kids is tough for me. I do love them, but We don't get them a lot, and when we do I feel like a failure because I haven't been able to give him any more.

    Hang in there.  Tonight I had a kids bday party.  All of the couples had kids and all of them got married around when we got married.  It just boggles my mind how we are having so much trouble and other people just want to get pregnant and
    ***SIGGY WARNING***

    DX: Unexplained
    6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).  
    IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN,   IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1  BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical 
    Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
    12/18/13 FET of 1 BB and 1 AC.  Hoping for a miracle.  Beta 12/26 Low BETA-8 2nd BETA 5- chemical
    After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here.  Still no real answers as to why this isn't working.  Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.  
    2/14- NEW RE- Immune testing showed a partial dq alpha match with DH- On prednisone and did intralipids prior to transfer.  3/14 Lupron, gonal f, menopur, HGH.  ER 15 mature all 15 fertilized!  5dt of an early blast grade 1 and an expanded blast grade 2.  BETA on 4/21.  1 grade 2 embryo frozen
