Update on 10 days of Magic, Mickey, and Memories

Hi all,

Many of you went along on my trip report from September. In that trip report, I shared that my DH and I were on another journey, a very personal journey, not just to WDW. That was our journey to start a family. Many of you kept us in your prayers, tossed dimes into Sassagoula River for us, and sent us pixie dust. Sadly, it was confirmed today that our latest round of IVF was unsuccessful. I wanted to take a moment to share how appreciative I am for all the support and well wishes. It has meant a tremendous amount to me. And for those of you who shared your personal experiences with me, thank you. Our journey is not over. I will keep praying and keep wishing.

Thank you again.

Hugs,
Carey

So many prayers for you! I'm so, so sorry that this round didn't work! The same thing happened to my cousin. They adopted a beautiful baby girl after many unsuccessful rounds, and just a few short months later (after they stopped trying, of course) they found out they were expecting! I know the same miracle will happen for you. You deserve it, and that future baby of yours is going to be so lucky to have you as a momma! I'll keep praying!

I have been checking in daily waiting for an update. I am so sorry this attempt was unsuccessful. Unless you have experienced it, no one can comprehend the struggles of infertility. After a year and a half of treatments, my husband and I finally conceived and were blessed with the most perfect baby boy. Two years later when we thought it was time to start trying again, we were again told we would require infertility treatments. I decided I just couldn't put myself through that again and we resigned ourself to being a family of three. Within months, we were shocked to be pregnant again without any help. Today we have a 12 and 9 year old sons that are the center of our universe. Even though it has been a long time ago, I still remember the utter hopelessness and despair that would come with a negative test each month. I always hated when people would tell me, "It will happen if you just quit trying so hard," so I'm certainly not going to trivialize your experience with that type of message. Instead, I just want to encourage you to remain hopeful! In the meanwhile, we will keep praying and watching for more updates.

What this poster said! I am truly very sorry and I know there's not much to say to make it better. Try to ignore some of the comments that people make, I know they hurt but I really think these people have no idea what they're saying. Let yourself have your sad moments but pick yourself and do remain hopeful. I think I quoted this before to you but I'll say it again, "It will all be ok in the end, if it's not ok... it's not the end!" I can only imagine the long, hard road that you've already been down. One day you too will have an amazing story to tell and you'll be able to comfort someone else! ((hugs))

Thank you so much! I love hearing those amazing stories. We have decided to start the adoption process as well as continuing with IVF. Its been a journey but the stories like your cousins is what keep us going. Thank you!
