I just wanted to let you all know that January 2 I gave birth to one baby and then on January 7 I gave birth to the remaining 3 babies. I was only 18 weeks so they did not survive. We are completely devastated and hoping to heal with time. We are still desperate for a family but are going to give ourselves time to heal mentally and myself heal physically. It was one of the worst experiences of my life. thank you to all that were so positive about this. We were so surprised when this happened but ready to take on the challenge."

October 2015: IUI: BFN
January 2016: Egg retrieval: 10 frozen embryos!
March 2016: FET Cycle- 2 embryos transferred!: BFP !
This is truly heartbreaking news from a person who is a source of inspiration and strength for us. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family @MrsHandler , I'm deeply saddened by your losses.
Omg how terrible. I was wondering how she was doing- I even looked around in the June/July BMBs to see if she had posted. My heart goes out to you @MrsHandler I'm so so sorry for your losses
This has definitely been a horrible experience and definitely one of the hardest things we've ever been through but we are healing and this has definitely strengthened our marriage. My doctors 100% attribute losing the babies to it being a quad pregnancy. They don't foresee me having any issues in future pregnancies but thankfully my high risk doctor will see us through any more pregnancies even though I won't be considered high risk. Also, my HR doctor talked with my fertility specialist and when we do decide to proceed with treatments we will go right to IVF because I am so sensitive to the medicine that works for me. Unfortunately I don't respond to oral meds but I respond extremely well to the shots.. kind of a catch 22. So we will go with IVF and implant one egg at a time. Thankfully my husband has amazing insurance and covers a good amount and we can apply for a 10,000 dollar stipend for fertility treatments through his company. We are very blessed with that. Hopefully it will work the first time.
Thank you all for your kind words, again they mean so much!
@MrsHandler So so sorry for your losses You are an inspiration. Best of luck to you with your future IVF! I think I would choose the same path (and only implant 1 at a time!)
