Never give up!

LC • Pregnant with our second!
My husband and I have seen three doctors. Two out of the three told us, "You can not have your own biological children. IVF may not even be an option." There was never a definitive reason as to why. They said it's me or it's my husband. But no explaination. My husband still had hope meanwhile I was grieving. He had me meet with another OBGYN. She gave us hope! She gave us a chance! She did an ultrasound to see how my utereus and eggs are; all normal. Blood work; all normal. Even my husband; all normal. She put me on progesterone and clomid immediately. After 4 unsuccessful rounds and a false positive home pregnancy test...I started to lose hope and felt heart broken. I made an appointment with my obgyn. She was honest and straight forward. She told me, "You only have two more months left with the medication. I cannot give you more. However, don't feel discourage. Your body is responding to the medication. We can talk about other alternatives later when we get there. We are not there yet." I felt better. Then my health was declining. I had ear problems, tendernous on my head, migraines and severe dizziness. I took another pregnancy test-negative.  I saw several specialist including an ENT and neurologist; nothing was wrong. Two weeks later I find out...IM PREGNANT! I am 4 and 1/2 weeks along. Long story short, don't give up! Get a second or third opinion. My husband I were going to sit down and decide what will be out next plan but our baby decided to make an appearance after all!
