Failed Transfer

Well guys, not good news. We had a failed transfer this time around. Our pee tests came back negative all the way up to the blood test, which also came back negative. So we had to decide if we wanted to try again. I think we all were on board immediately to try for sure one more time. It's hard to keep having disappointments, but we all are trying to just move forward. The doctor talked to me and said that he wanted to only do one embryo again as our embryos are really good quality and he feared twins for us if we put in two. If it was my body, I would take the risk, but not for someone else to risk. He said it's a much more difficult decision when you involve a 3rd party to the mix and he didn't want to take those risks with her. He also was not sure why it isn't working. He said she is perfectly healthy, the embryos are fantastic and he has high hopes for a success. He also said our miscarriage was very strange but he knows that Andrea can get pregnant. So we are trusting the doctor for this third round. 

When Andrea's cycle started after going off of the meds,  it was a really bad one so we all thought it would be a good idea to give her body a month off. Today she went back to Vancouver to have her insides painfully checked with shooting water. It's an awful experience!!!  The doctor confirmed that everything with her looks perfect and we can start again for her June cycle. So looks like we will transfer again mid to late June. It's a complicated month for us as we will be visiting my parents from June 2-18th in Italy, so I am hopeful we will be back in time for me to be with Andrea for transfer. If not, she is one tough lady and doesn't really need me, but it's so fun to do this together. So we all our very hopeful for June, which would give us a march baby, and that would be a pretty awesome birthday present for Jordyn, our daughter. If this works, we will have been in this process together for almost 2 1/2 years. She has become family as well as her daughters. So no matter what, we found each other, and that's just amazing!!  

We were all so sad, but again we want to thank everyone for their support. We are starting fresh and not allowing these hard things damper our spirits or cause us fear for June. This is a new start and new excitements. Can't wait to continue to write about it. Fun times ahead!!!
