Might IVF be for us?

Vicky

Hi there, I'm Vicky, nearly 38 with spontaneous 5 year old twins. I had a very precarious delivery with the boys - HELPP syndrome and an abruption nearly killed me. The delivery also left my one son with some special needs. However, I finally felt ready to try again, emotionally and physically. I got pregnant month 2 of trying. However, the pregnancy was with twins again. My doctors were NOT happy. My risks are higher with one than average, but skyrocket with two. They recommended considering a fetal reduction. In the end, neither developed a heartbeat and I'm currently waiting to miscarry but after this, I'm not sure I can go forward naturally again. The pure terror I felt when I imagined going through that delivery again; the agony of having to possibly reduce. It's been hell.

My husband and I are wondering if we might pursue <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> to lessen our chances of this whole disaster happening again. We wants to place one embryo and hope that helps us achieve the healthy pregnancy we so want.

I'm new at this idea - please be gentle, but might we pursue this?
