yes. 5 IUIs, 2 IVFs and 1 FET, all unsuccessful. .... BUT - While waiting to start IVF#3, I missed my period and found out we conceived on our own! I had a normal pgcy for my 1st dd, and then went on to have 2 more pregnancies without reproductive assistance, one m/c at 9 wks and then my 2nd dd. Our family is complete.
Are you considering it?
We were told that we couldn't have any children after years of trying, just when we were giving up our dr. wanted to try one more thing IVF. So we went through the shots, etc. and now have a wonderful, lovable six year old boy. He was born a week after our 15th wedding anniv. I have my little boy thanks to IVF. Course that's it. I just can't have any more we tried IVF again and it didn't work.
Also FYI I had my son when I was 41 - I was carrying twins but lost his twin.
GOOD LUCK!
I am 40 and just started my first IVF cycle. Are you starting or thinking of starting?
40ish and beyond Happy Hour party!! :)
