Looking for successful IVF-ers trying again

Hi I'm just looking for any ladies out there who have been successful with IVF and are trying again, or have been lucky enough to be successful another time. I'm struggling with the disappointment and loss of hope, and also the fact that I've been lucky enough to have a set if twins... But I want more, and i dont feel like im finished, am i being ungrateful...? I'm just not finished and I am so desperate to have more children. Looking for anyone to respond and tell me their story, heartbreaking or happy...

Hi... my 1st ivf was such an emotionally draining roller coaster but in the end it was all worth it as we had our DD.  When she was 2, we tried again for a sibling for her but it did not work. She is now 5 and for the past 2 years, she has been praying every single night for God to give a her a sibling (a sister to be specific!).  I was concerned due to my age given the low chances but how could we not try again after all that praying?  :) I'm happy to say that I am currently into my 12th week and God willing, she will have the best birthday present this year!  Good luck to you!

Thanks Jen, thanks for your words about how you felt when you wanted more kids. I feel so desperate to have more kids. I'm heading to my 5th time on IVF. With my twins it took 8 try's. I'm so happy that you gave been successful! All the very best.

I wanted to tell you that I felt the same way when we decided to do ivf. We have two dd, 8&6. I felt that I was greedy and ungrateful to want more kids and to spend so much time and money doing it. But after 3 years ttc, we decided to go with our hearts and add to our family at all cost. So after our first ivf I am 12 weeks pregnant with twins. I'm so excited and so are my girls, but like us all they are nervous.
I wish you the best of luck on your journey what ever you decide to do.
