Dreaming of Pink Ribbons and Lace leggings

[BV0812]

Hello

My name is Brittney, I am the mommy of two perfect little boys. I am sitting here writing this with a lump in my throat and a pain in my heart. My husband and I have dreamed of having a little girl since we where high school sweethearts. Ten years and two boys later, that little girl I once dreamed of seems harder and harder to see. I was told my first son was a girl from 18-22 weeks. I bonded with a little girl, picked out her name and bought her pretty dresses. When my second son was clearly a boy at 16 weeks my heart broke, I cried for weeks. At the time I thought I was just a horrible mother for not being able to love the perfect baby boy God blessed me with. I didn't learn that gender disappointment and depression was something that many people suffered from. We took the first step towards PGD IVF today and called a infertility specialist. What we found out it that there is no way we will be able to afford to go forth with it. As my husband is sure he does not want more then three children we have only one last chance to balance our family. I don't know what else to say. I hope I can lean on you all throughout this and find peace somehow.

H there. I'm so sorry you are down. HRC is in California and around $14,000. Is that way outside what you can do? Can you get a zero interest credit card? Where there's a will, there's a way.

If you want to join us in the Member HT section, we have lots of info there. There is also a $1600 sperm sort in Kentucky that does IUI's.

HRC is a clinic in California and Dr Potter is one of our Ask The Experts on here. It is a popular destination for people. The success rates are very good and they are at the forefront of testing and gender selection.

If you become a Dream Member- $12 annually, you can schedule a free consult with him(there is a link you may access as a member) and you get $1,000 off your cycle. There are other good clinics but since you are in the area so to speak, they are one of the best around you. $25-30k is outrageous.

OH THANK GOD!! There is still hope!! I am in Northern Ca. Where is he located? And it would cost around $14000 for PGD IVF is that correct?

You must become a Dream Member to get the free consult and the $1,000 off. The link for that is at the top of the forum. After you do that, you will be able to access the form to schedule a chat-
