  6. Well, sh*t. I can see why your docs (including you and Will) were stunned.

    Sh*t. If it's any help, your numbers were waaaaaaayyyy better than mine ever were.

    You know what, that's not helpful at all. I'll stop.

    I'm so, so sorry.....

  7. I'm so sorry that this last cycle didn't work. It shouldn't have to be this hard, but it is. As usual, there's nothing I can say that will offer any comfort, especially being filed under "recurrent miscarriage" myself. I hope you take the time to get back on track. Be gentle with yourselves ...
