Last Ditch Efforts

The doctors are officially throwing everything they have at keeping this baby alive and growing. I appreciate it but it scares me even more. When they start talking about "long shot treatments" and things like that it scares the hell out of me. They have put me on an antibiotic to treat any possible fluid leaks in the sac. They took me off PIO injections (I am thankful for that) and put me on massive doses of progesterone by mouth and suppositories. Not 100% what the rationale is there but at this point what else can I do.

When I Talked to the nurse Wednesday she assured me that the sac not growing is a complete mystery. It isn't necessary chromosomal, it's nothing I'm doing, it's not even hormone related. It's just seriously scary stuff. I know that now those statistics I read a couple of weeks ago (about a 80-95% loss rate) apply. So I now know that we are not talking about 50/50. It's more like an 80/20 at best.

Makes me so sad to think that the walls are just closing in my poor little angel. :(

I'm so sorry. I will definitely keep you in my prayers and will hope for that miracle.

About this blog

Over 8 years we have struggled through 3 IUI's, 6 rounds of IVF, several RE's, hundreds of appointments and the loss of three little angels. Now we find ourselves the proud parents of two perfect little girls and a wonderful little boy!!

Both of our girls struggle with some disabilities but that won't keep us down. Each day has it's own brand of insanity but we love it. Most days I am more monkey wrangler than mother but I do the best I can. Todays goal - getting to tomorrow.
