Relief and peace since egg retrieval/ freezing embryos

In December 2023 I had a chemical pregnancy, then in July 2024 I lost my son at 22 weeks, and then in January 2025 I had a blighted ovum. In March 2025, I started seeing my fertility clinic, did 2 surgeries, 4 failed IUI cycles and finally got to do my first (and only) IVF cycle this January. I am not pregnant, yet. However, I just wanted to share how relieving it is to finally have embryos frozen and to a mental and physical break without feeling like I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. I give all of us credit, this is a painful journey. But I’m just expressing gratitude and happiness for this part of my journey. For the first time in 2 years, I finally feel like my old self is coming out again. I know this is a hard journey, but we deserve to feel happiness too and to enjoy these beautiful moments🤍
