[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry for your previous losses. I can't imagine how hard that must have been for you.

I totally agree about the "odds of first try" response above. I am a PP who is currently cycling with an FET at the end of the month. I am 30, perfect health, and our diagnosis was male factor, which ICSI is designed for. Based on the "odds" I should have been pregnant first cycle. But it failed. Because cycles fail unexpectedly ALL the time for no obvious reason. So please do not go into this thinking it will work on the first try. It might, which would be amazing! [b]But you have an equal chance of it failing.[/b] I went into my first cycle 100% sure it would be successful, so I was beyond devastated when it wasn't.   Much more realistic about this FET.

She actually has a greater chance of any one cycle failing, based on her age.  OP, you can do this but don't set yourself up to be devastated.  Stay positive but realistic.  It's the only way to survive long-term.[/quote]

I am not a risk-taker by nature; that's why I'm freaking out about this. The thought of gambling so much of what little money we have and ending up with nothing is too much to handle. [/quote]
