Closure

Well I had my scan today, so am now off all the IVF meds finally. I just have to take the pill for around a week so that I can have a withdrawl bleed and start off my own cycles again. Not that it will help at all when I don't ovulate, but at least it is an end to all that is IVF for now.

As expected, he couldn't find any specific reason for the miscarriage, just more bad luck. He doesn't think it is a problem with the embryos so still believes that we should start with another FET cycle when we go back. His opinion is that we should continue with double embryo transfers each time and he has suggested maybe adding some asprin to the mix when we do try again. Other than that, there isn't really anything that can be done except to just keep trying and hope for better luck.

I still don't have any desire to cycle again after going to the clinic, I was actually really happy to see the back of it for now. After 8 months of pretty much back to back IVF and 3 m/c in a row, it is definately time for a break. My desire for another child hasn't changed or even weakened. But I just can't keep going right now and continue to be the best Mum I can be to my son. We are going through a few major life changes at the moment so everything is a bit up in the air for us, but at this stage, I would expect that we will look at it again in around 6-12 months.

So it's goodbye from me for now.

Thankyou so very much to everyone for your support, it means more than you know. xxoo
