Hey guys we are starting IVF! Trying to join the NT Dads club

Ksteezy you're into science like me, so don't take this the wrong way. Dating outside of your race can make conceiving a child that much harder. Two different strains of DNA and genes can make conceiving difficult for people of different heredities; even more so for people over the age of 30.

Sources b. We need em.

Sorry to hear about this man. Terrible news. My wife and I are probably gonna have to go through the IVF route as well and this scares me.

Be there for her and if it get too tough consider therapy to get through this awful experience.

We are both Latino...
 
Its tough man. I am so sorry for the both of you. I hate that I too know the experience. And its still fresh for me and my wife. We lost our twins, boy and girl, 5 months in to the pregnancy this past August. Most terrible experience i have ever faced. I wrote about it in the Dads thread and the fellas in there were very supportive.

Seeing our women hurt and knowing that there is nothing we can do to take that pain away is so devastating man. We are still dealing with the sadness and it has been very up and down but I feel like we are slowly turning a corner. Searching for understanding has been the most difficult part.

We had to see fertility specialist to conceive as well. Just now starting that process over again. I wish you guys luck bro, yall are in my prayers.

Omggggg!!!! Dude going through this right now I can't even imagine how my wife would recover, crazy because when I tell her to try to look on the bright side, I bring up the much grimmer possibility of a still birth or a late miscarriage, I'm so sorry for your loss
 
Sorry to hear that man I know it's the last thing on your mind but do you have any other options? Adoption? Surrogate?

I know at a certain point as a husband you feel like crap letting your wife go through this pain but at the same time it's something you guys both want. Rough time definitely stay strong!
 
Prayers for you and your wife steezy..I won't even try to pretend to know what pain you're going through..Stay strong for your wife, but don't forget to allow yourself some time to grieve when you're not around her..God bless you both..
 
Adoption is always an option, but I know my wife really wants to carry her own baby...while we thought we were preggo we discussed our second baby to be adopted for sure because once this worked I couldn't see myself or her going through it again, we just want our own conceived child, just one..
 


Race is a major part in the make up of a human being. It's all genetics and heredity. Too different of DNA make up can cause complications for conceiving. 




Dog, there's a time and place for everything. This aint the time nor the place for this kind of conversation. Fall back!

sorry for the setback...

not that i know anything about it, but have you thought about surrogacy or is the appeal for your wife actually carrying the child? 
 
Can you break it down in Laymans terms for those of us not too familiar? If it's too touchy of a subject, disregard the request.

It seems her uterus reacts just fine, not really any issues there, the issue is we don't produce good quality embryos, once the eggs are removed and fertilized, after 5 days they receive a grade, ours have never been great, we had 2 C grade embryos which were implanted and one stuck and gave us a positive pregnancy, however probably because it wasn't a good embryo to begin with, even after getting a heartbeat last week, it wasn't viable and this week it died....so surrogacy is usually for women that have problems with their uterus and can't carry baby's, ours actually stuck, so it would stick on a surrogate womb, but if our eggs and sperm don't produce adequate embryos, it will die in a surrogate womb as well.
 
Steezy, man, I have impregnated lesbian couples with nothing but alone time and a turkey baster.

How about this....

Turkey baster

Lobo x Steezy semen collabo

If it holds, it holds. There's no certainty whose little guys worked. Hell, maybe my boys will inspire your boys. Done. Baby. It's like a firing squad, no one knows who actually shot the bullet.

Let me know.

We're gonna get you a baby, dude!
We got this.
 
Egg and sperm aren't bonding well because they have too complex DNA

I never heard of this, and if it's true I don't see how it applies to us, she's Dominican and I'm Colombian, we are pretty much the same race....

Our embryos are not good because individually we don't have great eggs AND sperm, nothing to do with our race...
