Is anyone else terrified of miscarrying?

Question

I hate how the miscarriage rates are the same with <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>. We lost our baby at 4 months pregnant and am scared of going through all that <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> entails and still having that risk hanging over me.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Answer

I'm beyond terrified! I dont know why I thought if only I could get just get pregnant with ivf I'll feel so much better. Now I just feel so unmonitored and thrown into more waiting. What if my hcg is dropping and I don't even know? What if at the first ultrasound it doesnt have a heart beat? What if the dna test says it doesnt have all it chromosomes? The stress never ends!

Answer

Yes, I’m scared too. It’s always a possibility. What helps me is that my clinic gives success rates in terms of live births. And the odds are good. So even if I miscarry again, chances are I will have a live birth eventually through IVF. My clinic gives 80% chance of live birth over 3 IVF cycles.

Answer

I hear you. Makes it all less fun after going through that. I was about at three months when we had to have D&C. I feel only cautiously optimistic about IVF but hope the PGS testing will help out the odds! I think I'll be on pins and needles until I deliver a healthy baby.
