So, I got all fired up a while ago about coming back to blogging as I got together with my partner (now husband!) and we embarked on a mission to pursue having a child via IVF.

Once we actually got into the process I didn’t find the time or mental energy for blogging consistently.

We did the ERA test and if showed that my uterus does go into the receptive state, so we moved ahead with IVF and we managed to get 5 blastocyst (5 day old) embryos frozen. 4 embryo transfers later we are still childless.

We’ve moved on from IVF as we always new our chances of it working were lower than average.

I will blog about my IVF journey properly in a separate post, but the purpose of this post is to say we’ve moved on from IVF as we always new our chances of it working were lower than average. We didn’t want to “waste” years (and money) trying again when we are open to other ways of extending our family.

With that in mind we are now exploring our options and that journey is what I plan to blog about going forwards (after providing an update on IVF of course!). Let’s hope I can be more consistent this time 😉
