My heart goes out to you! Your story sounds so much like mine! I too suffered through 14 yrs of infertility, (although thankfully just one hubby) 2 ectopic pregnancies, at least 1 miscarriage. We started IVF and on the 3rd time, it took, but only lasted a few weeks. On our 8th and final IVF attempt, we had a family member offer to carry a child for us. It was our last 4 frozen embryos, they had been in cryo for over 2 yrs, "bottom of the barrel" embryos. Amazingly, they took! Not only did it take, but we ended up with beautiful boy/girl twins!

My husband wants another baby, but I'm 43 now and since my babies came into my life, I finally feel content! I used to feel almost like I had children but that they were ripped from my life! I felt an actual loss for the children I didn't yet have. I'm so blessed to have my babies,.

I pray that everything works out for you.

I pray that everything works out for you! I know exactly what it is like to feel deep down in your soul that you are suppose to have more children. I have one son, which I actually got pregnant with while I was on birth control. I found out in may 2008 that I was preggers again. I was so excited! I ended up having a miscarriage at about 6 1/2 weeks. I was so sad, I never thought that would happen to me but it did! Then in July we started to try again. We tried for months with no luck. I went in to my doc to see if something was up, and sure enough I was not ovulating. She gave me clomid to get me to ovulate and I took it in feb. It worked the first cycle! I was so excited yjay we were preggers again. I was also so scared that I was going to have another miscarriage that I tried not to get overly excited about it. Then when I was seven weeks pregnant, I started to tell my friends. I told my family right away, because I did not want to do what I did last time. when I had my miscarriage, I had to tell them I was pregnant and hear them get so excited and then tell them I lost it and hear them get so sad. I hated that! anyways, I started to feel comfortable with my pregnancy and then I had more spotting. I was spotting off and on through my whole pregnancy, but my doc said not to worry unless there was cramping and bright red blood. well I had neither, I started spotting more and had some kidney/back pain. I went into the ER to get checked out. They did and ultrasound and say what appeared to be a gestational sac. They thought maybe I was not as far along as I thought. They looked at my ovaries and found that I had a tubal pregnancy. They rushed me into emergency surgery on march 26th. They removed my right fallopian tube, because the baby was already 8 weeks along, so there was no saving the tube. my husband and I are going to start trying again right away, because the heart ache is forgotten when they hand you that baby! It also may take some time because I only have one functioning side. I am 26 years old and if someone would have told me that this was all going to happen to me, I never would have believed them. No one in my family has had problems having children. My Grandma had 5 or her eight kids with just one functioning ovary(she had trauma damage it) so I hope that I can have just a couple more! Anyways I just wanted to share my story, even though I realize that yours has gone on a lot longer and is a lot harder.It just feels good to share my story with someone who may understand where I am coming from! I talk to my family and friends, but they do not really know what I am going through. Good luck with you last little embryos...sending you lots of baby dust!
