So, we got to the early pregnancy clinic at 7.30am. We were the first there by a long shot. We just wanted answers. Is there anything left, with or without a heartbeat? The clinic filled up fast, and we were the ...
I'm writing this to distract me. Don't judge. About 2 hours ago I started bleeding. A little at first, then a lot. I'm in a lot of pain. We've called the clinic, but there is nothing they can do other than wait ...

Hello, Thank you for hanging in here for this long. It's been nice to have you close by. Today we learned that none of the remaining three embryos were good enough for freezing. Which wasn't a big surprise. We have 4 top quality ...
