Thanks for the sympathy, all of you. I’m very very bitter and angry right now, and I’m working on it. I know it’s not going to go away overnight. I’m betting I’ll struggle with anger about it at least marginally for the rest of my life.
WhyNot, I know there aren’t any guarantees in life, no matter what road you take. That is, I know that in my head. That knowledge left my heart awhile back and hasn’t returned. I think it will, and that’s when I’ll know it’s time to try again. It’s a good point, and I’m glad you made it.
Shodan, I certainly won’t laugh at you for your lingering fears. I do think, though, that once the children have reached the age of majority, anything the agency does would be moot. You’re probably safe.
LadyVenom, I’ve hijacked your thread, and I apologize. It was only my intent to point out one reason why people might wish to pursue fertility options.
I’m delighted to hear that fertility treatments will not be prohibitively expensive for you. Makes me want to break into a rousing chorus of “O Canada,” that does. I do have one question about the next procedure you’ll be undergoing. How long will it be from the time of insemination will it be until you know if it took?
My sympathies on dealing with the whole mess, and especially all the surrounding pregnancies. Our class at church was breeding babies like nobody’s business last year, and we just had to stop going. It was too hard.
I’m so sorry for what you went and continue to go through. If you ever need to chat, my email is in my profile. Don’t worry about the hijack
Generally they do the insemination around day 14, which is the usual day of ovulation. So, it will be about 2 weeks before we know if the insemination was successful.
