Starting Over

Six months passed before I felt like we could start all over again. We went back to the doctor to get a new prescription of the medicines. Another 6 months past by, with one disappointment after another, I didn’t know how much more I could take. We were reviewed by my ob and he informed us that he could no longer help us, and referred our case to a fertility specialist.

Test after test was performed, most of them being quite painful and intrusive. When we finally went back to the fertility specialist he informed us that we had male and female factor infertility, and that our only chance of having a baby would be through IVF. He then went on to say that with the weight that I was currently at, there was no way I would be approved for IVF. I was heartbroken.
