Been Laying Low

As you would (well those of you that have read my blog) we have had 3 miscarriages. So far with IVF 50% of our embryos implant. Our problem is making them stick. In the holidays we got some bad news in regards to a SCSA test DH had done. Basically we were told we have a very minute chance of carrying a baby to term due to the results.

At first I thought it was the end of the world, but now after scouring the internet, I have found some possible solutions (and the most likely cause for these results) to improve our chances. I now have DH on a cocktail of vitamins and minerals, 9 tablets each morning, 2 at lunch and 2 at dinner. Most of these improve the quality of blood vessels and blood flow especially to certain male nether reigins. If that fails I have another card up my sleeve, but I will leave that for another time.

I also did some research into possible ways to make better quality embryos (so we get a take home baby), I sent an email with all this info to my Dr and am waiting for an answer back. So only time will tell.

Damn spell check isn't working, sorry for any typos!
