Bawling my eyes out

Discovery health is showing a show today called Baby Lab. It's got stories of different couples going through IVF.. I am crying like there is no tomorrow. So many of my friends have had to go through this process .. and reading their messages and emails .. I knew it was hard .. but watching it on TV .. just makes me realize how hard all of this has been on them. Several couples' IVFs didn't take .. and 2 couples did. One even had triplets!!! It's just such a crapshoot. It's so not fair that it works for some and not others .. and no one knows whether it will be them that it works for .. or it will be them that it doesn't work for. I just wish I could make it succesful for all that tried it.

Toni I had no idea really what you had gone through. Nor my friend Rachelle who has had 3 failed IVF's, or what my friend Rina is getting ready to go through. I mean you read the blogs, and the emails and think wow .. that's rough .. but seeing it, just made it so much more real to me. It makes me ache for all of you. I am just so happy that yours was successful!!! It's hard enough to go through it. I can't imagine going through all that and still not having a pregnancy to show for it.
