Vegas, Baby Page #6

conversation,

so I don't necessarily hold her

to that, but boy that sure--

that sure stuck here.

I hope my

wife is pregnant,

because the last two

weeks she's had me running

to McDonald's, Taco Bell.

She's having me run

everywhere to get

her food that she's craving.

If she's not pregnant,

I'm gonna be pissed.

But let's see this through.

I understand that.

Let's wait for the call

and see, hey, she is.

We're just waiting.

Yes.

Hello.

Hi.

Who wants good news?

I can tell by your face.

You gave it away.

I gave it away!

Here's my result. I have

my result here for you.

I'm not lying.

Here it is.

I'm so excited.

Yeah, me too.

You're pregnant?

- Thank you so much, Linda.

- Thank you.

Congratulations.

Oh, I'm gonna give you-- mm.

And on your bald head.

- My bald head.

- Good papa.

Brian looks scared.

Are you?

What's wrong?

It's just, like,

starting to hit.

You know, you always--

I thought you were pregnant,

but then-- and now it's

sort of like you're pregnant.

Pregnant.

It's crazy.

I know.

It's all good, sweetie.

I was in rehearsals

for my Lady

Gaga tribute show, dancing,

singing, sweating for hours.

I can't help

but keep on dancing.

Goddess of love.

Goddess of love.

So I'm just doing my thing.

I'm having a blast.

And I'm pumping myself.

I'm like, it's OK.

You had a great show.

Your life is good.

It's OK if you get

pregnant later.

And then I'm like, oh, I

guess I should check the test.

And I look, at it's pregnant.

And I'm like--

Athena.

Athena.

F***, oh.

I can't help

the way I'm feeling.

Goddess of love please

take me to your leader.

I can't help but

keep on dancing.

And I just like--

I feel more, like,

happy and mellow.

Like I definitely feel

like I'm on a drug.

And it's the best drug ever.

And I was telling my mom about

it, and she said, oh, honey,

that's just how I

felt. You're pregnant.

Because she just

loved being pregnant.

Ha, ha, it's such

a good feeling.

All right, you guys

heard Lady Gaga is--

she's pregnant.

And she's making an appearance

right here on my show.

I can't believe it.

So please show some love

for pregnant Lady Gaga.

OK.

Right now I'm logging on to

the Sher Institute's website.

So, so far he's

got 16 beta tests,

and 12 have been positive.

Hey babes, no call yet.

No call yet?

No.

So I rushed over

here for nothing?

No.

You can hold my hand.

I can hold your hand.

How you doing?

Good.

So, see what happens.

Let's hope we get good news.

Ah, there's Linda.

Hi, Linda.

All right.

Well, I got the results.

- No?

- No?

Not good news.

They were both negative.

Not even a nibble.

Oh, Linda.

Those were our last two embryos.

Yeah, I know.

Well, I guess we'll wait

to talk to Dr. Sher to see--

Yeah, I'm so sorry.

OK, thank you.

All right,

guys, I'll talk to you later.

Bye, bye.

Bye.

I'm sorry, baby.

Oh.

I mean, what are we--

I just don't understand.

You know, the blasts

look fine every time.

Chromosomally, they're fine.

But it's still--

it's still numbers.

It's like a slot machine.

The more dollars you put

in doesn't necessarily mean

the more likely you are to hit.

The chance is the same

every time you pull it.

This

is the fifth time.

I mean, I know what

Dr. Sher's gonna say.

He's gonna say the

eggs are too old.

It's time to go

on to an egg donor.

But that's just not

an option for me.

I thought you said

your cousin offered.

She offered, but--

You mean, for you,

personally, it's not an option?

Are you telling me--

I mean, there are

no other options

open-- that you're open to?

So now adoption's off the table?

You talked about it.

We talked about the possibility

of using donor eggs.

I mean, those

discussions, we've had.

I mean, if they weren't

options, then why were we

even talking about that?

I don't know.

I guess I just never really

thought it would come to that.

Now that we're here,

they're not an option?

Well, I don't agree

with that at all.

But I always

told I would want

my own biological child first.

First.

But if you can't have it

first, then you scuttle

the idea of an entire family?

I find that just very, very

difficult to understand,

for someone who wants

a child so badly.

I'm

always gonna wonder.

I'm always gonna wonder.

Wonder what?

If it would have

been different.

If something would

have been different.

Well, being a product

of adoption myself,

I never wondered.

I know, baby.

And it's really hard for

me to say this to you.

So that's it, we're done.

I do stay emotionally removed

from most of it, amazingly.

That's-- my patients will

tell you that I'm not

emotionally removed from them.

And I'm not really

emotionally removed from them.

I have to be emotionally removed

from the outcome, though.

Because I couldn't handle that.

I can't-- I couldn't handle,

you know, these people--

sorry-- having negative

outcomes all the time.

And it would break my heart.

It would break my heart.

Now

while I'm copying this,

I just need you to look

over your information,

make sure everything is correct.

- OK.

- Read through and initial.

- OK.

And then you're just going

to sign and date the back.

OK, great.

Thanks.

I've been planning for

this baby for a long time.

So when I got pregnant this

time, I just felt happy.

I felt like a normal woman.

Not like a woman with a problem.

I went there today, and the

baby hadn't grown at all.

We just asked the doctor,

was there any way that--

he said, no, it's passed away.

Do you mind, can I have a

fresh probe cover, please?

I asked the doctor,

well, does this mean that I

have a problem with my eggs?

He said it probably does.

I want to have a little ritual,

maybe, or something, but--

at some point.

But maybe when you

come we could say

a few words in Central Park.

Yeah.

It's just a lot to go through.

Yeah, it is.

That's why I'm saying I

can't keep doing this.

Mm-hmm.

Knock, knock.

Can I talk to you

about a couple things?

Sure

OK.

All right, one--

I'm gonna save my good news

for a minute, all right?

OK.

This is-- I've

got to go over this

OB ultrasound with Ann Johnson.

She was six weeks, two days.

She only measured about

five weeks, two days.

No fetal pole.

This looks very dismal to me.

I know.

This lagging growth.

Right.

I think we're gonna

lose this pregnancy.

Yeah.

There's a lot of babies there.

Hey, Dr. Jazayeri.

How are you?

All right.

So this is the gestational sac.

That's where the

pregnancy would be.

OK?

The measurement on the

fetus, unfortunately,

has not changed--

has not grown any.

And I don't see a heartbeat.

There's no heartbeat,

no growth, nothing.

I don't even know

what to do now.

I wasn't expecting this.

I was expecting a

normal ultrasound.

I love you, baby.

I love you too.

We are here to

discuss our journey,

offer encouragement and support.

So any of the things

that we say and do today

are to be kept here.

There are such highs,
