Close Infertility

My husband and I have been trying to concieve for 3 1/2 years. We have been dealing with fertility dr. for 2 1/2 years. We now know that the factor is that my husband was born with out his Vas Defren tubes. My husband has had a TESA preformed to extract his sperm. They were able to extract 3 vials. So we started IVF in April '07 and on May 24th we found out it didn't work. We are both dealing with it emotionally. Tried Aug 2007 IVF again. Got PG but miscarried. Moved to donor sperm.

Close Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility

My DH and I have TTC for 3 years now. After 2 IVF tries we are finally successful. On 9/14/07 the DR. office called to say your PG. My HCG level was 113. Went back on 9/17/07 for the 2nd bloodwork and my HCG level was 233 and progestrone was 11.3. Dr. wants to do another blood test to make sure i cont. to increas. Wanted my HCG to be 60% higher than 113. So now we are just relaxing and waiting for Wed. to see how we are doing. I'm scared and excited, but mainly scared.
