Miscarriage #3 Confirmed

Today's beta came back at 36.  Miscarriage #3 confirmed. 

I go back on Thursday for bloodwork to make sure it goes down to negative.  Then we have to have a follow up appt next week to discuss next steps.  We will most likely start on IVF#2 whenever my next period starts. 

This is just another stumbling block on our journey.  We just pick ourselves up and keep going.  The Lord has blessed us in so many ways that I will not let this waver my faith. 

Again, thank you for ALL the prayers.

My heart dropped when I read this. I was holding out hope for you. I am so sorry this round did not work out for you guys. I am so heartbroken for you. Be sure to take some time out for yourself the next few days. I hope you are doing well in the face of this setback. I am glad to see that you are going to pick yourself up and move onto the next round.

*BIG hugs*

Will you possibly do PGD in order to find to find out why you have had reoccurent miscarriages? Ugh, I am so sorry sweetie. Hugs!

I'm SO sorry to hear that Hannah. I was thinking about you all day today and hoping that the news was good. Like some of the other ladies said, take some time for yourself, let yourself grieve. Good for you for having such a positive attitude. Thinking and praying for you.

I am SO very sorry. Your positivity is absolutely admirable and I am encouraged by you. You truly have a heart of gold. I'll be continuing to lift you up in prayer as you heal.

Darn it. Not the news I wanted to hear for you. I will start the prayers now for healing and for your next cycle.

It isn't much of a consolation prize, but I have extra meds that I don't need if you are interested in them. They are individually packaged...let me know if you are interested and I will send you the details. Someone "paid it forward" in unused medicine to me and I would like to do the same for you if I can.

Hang in there. I know it sucks. My favorite verse in times like this...Jeremiah 29:11.
