Fertility problems, IVF and miscarriage

Monday 23rd Mar
Me and my partner were trying to conceive for four years with no luck before speaking to a doctor about our struggles, I then went in for keyhole surgery to see if anything was wrong with my womb, tubes and ovaries. Everything looked normal only a small sack on one of my tubes where the doctors said the eggs may be falling into. They also checked my partners sperm and said his sperm count was absolutely fine. We then decided to go through IVF, we had 5 viable embryo’s and had one placed back into my womb and had to wait 2 weeks until we could go back and get a blood pregnancy test taken. We were so excited and couldn’t wait and I just had a gut feeling so we went to get a few tests ourselfs a week later and the tests were positive! We waiting for our next appointment and the blood test did confirm that the tests were right! We were over the moon, planning everything, writing lists of what we needed and started looking at baby items and clothes. We had our first scan booked in 2 weeks later and couldn’t wait to see our little baby growing but unfortunately when we got to 5 weeks I had terrible pains and a lot of bleeding so we went to the hospital and was told that we had a miscarriage, that was on 24th October 2025. It was like our world had been torn apart, everything we’ve ever wanted after waiting so many years, so many painful procedures and heartbreak when seeing a negative test time and time again. Me and my partner both struggled with our depression after that and it’s been really hard to get over it to be in the right frame of mind to try again and do another embryo transfer. I think this will help move us in the right direction to try again. Thank you so much for reading our story and please donate anything you can 💜🩵
