anyone over 35 going for fertility treatments this year? IUI, IVF etc

[dachsundmom]

It's one of those things; the market is screaming with women asking for the most sensitive tests they can get, on the other hand, it's not always good.

I had no idea FRERS were that sensitive, maybe a little to sensitive

So does this mean your process in Jan. will be easier since you have the frosties?

Sarah

YES much easier. I only have to take a couple of medications (vaginally, no injections or anything) then have the transfer. Its nothing like this fresh cycle was. I feel so lucky I have the frosties and really feel for people who have to do a whole new fresh cycle. Now if none of my 8 frosties get me a bfp that will be hard to take, but I have to think positive!

thanks everyone for your support I went out for dinner with hubby and someone that works for us and it was a great laugh and really took my mind off things.

LillyLove thank you for your messages, they are always so sweet. how are you doing?

anyone else near the end of their 2WW, would love someone to get a bfp and cheer me up!!

I'm in my 2WW but it's early...

Hi Sarah. I'm sorry to hear that you didnt have a good test result today. when you wrote 6, does that stand for the amount of hcg that was detected?

I have a good feeling for you and although this month is most likely out, I believe things happen with a purpose, like there's a need for you to go home for the holidays for whatever reason, and then come January, all will be on your side. Don't know, but its just the way I view things.

Bless you and your frosties.

Im just popping out for my blood test, hopefully the number is low today and my period will come without much delay.

hubby has been so lovely. he was off yesterday and didnt want to leave me to go to work this morning! we had a good chat and we are ok.

I mentioned before that on day 3 I had 2 embryos that were in the lead and looked the best, and funnily enough those were the ones that didnt make it to day 5. So the 2 day 5 blasts they put in me looked the best that day, but perhaps the ones who made it to day 6 to be frozen will be better. Ive also been reading that some studies show implantation is better on cycles you dont have ovarian stimulation, so frozen transfer might work better for me as my body hasnt been through so much that month.

best case scenerio: I get to go home for christmas, perhaps go on a trip with hubby, and get pregnant in january

yes I also believe whats meant to be with be

and yes, my hcg is a '6' and negative is under '5' so its like something started to happen but didnt and is basically a negative. I have to go again today as they need it to be 5 or under to be able to close off my file for this month and get my next protocol.

how are you feeling?

Hey Sarah-

I'm on cd9 right now so currently bding my brains out lol.
On friday I am going to be scheduling our appointment for an hsg. A little scary, but feel it will be one step closer to bfp or ivf. If we don't get a bfp in the 3 months after hsg we have already decided we will be on to ivf. No time to waste!! My obgyn says I am "hardcore" and I told her - no I am almost 37!


Again, I gather so much strength from you and so many ladies on here. Although I have PMA, I think in the deepest recesses of my mind I truly feel that we will need ivf - I don't know if it is woman's intuition or just knowing my own body. I am 36.5, and for the last 6 years have been NTNP with my boyfriend now husband. We have always wanted children. Now that we are married I guess I just feel more aggressive about it.

hi Sarah, I feel pretty good, thanks. xoxo

Lilly, I had an hsg in september. it was a piece of cake!

erin you are a young pup Im sure you will be able to get a bfp, and if it takes doing ivf then so be it. my FS said that sometimes its something small that IVF 'fixes'. I always had a feeling I would need it too. well enjoy your BDing!! my hubby will be pleased to be able to get back to that this month, I dont think we BD'd at all in November my mum was here and I was tired from medications then had to abstain for his sample, then I was in the 2ww and didnt want my blasts contaminated

just wanted to share this:

my mum had about 4 miscarriages before me, and she just wrote this to me in private message on fb:

"I so understand the frustration,but if I hadn't kept trying I would never have had u,and u have enriched my life beyond measure"
