New here...Mom of three girls considering going high tech for a boy
Hello, everyone! I was referred here by someone I met on Babycenter.com. I am a Mom of three beautiful girls (oldest age 4, youngest almost 4 months) and my husband and I desparately want a boy. We tried the Shettles method for our second and third, but it didn't work. We love our girls dearly, but just feel like our family is not complete without a boy. We live in Northern Virginia, so I have looked into the GIVF facility that is near us. I have not yet scheduled a consultation as we are still doing some research and I was told that this was the place to find great information! I have made some wonderful friends on the Babycenter website and I hope I will do the same here as we continue our journey or what my husband and I affectionately refer to as "operation boy".

Welcome! GIVF definitely offers family balancing but they are one of the more expensive places to cycle.
Consults are free for Dream Members which is the paid/private access areas of the forum. 95% of the high tech talk is in the Dream Member forum. We have tons of members and a past cycle diaries forum so you can read about the process each of us have been through and start learning about IVF/PGD.
I hope you'll join us!Mom to
and my IVF/PGD
It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

Welcome! i think you'll find this site great and make loads of supportive friends. When are you thinking you will give ht a go? My eldest is also 4 (well 5 in nov) and my 3rd due to be born in a few weeks. Was thinking of doing ht next april when he is 6 months... this would be like you doing it in two months time... crazy or do-able do you reckon?!

Our girls are all almost exactly two years apart (May 2008, May 2010, and June 2012), so we're thinking of the same timing (so May-June 2014 due date). I breastfeed for a year and from past experience, do not have any cycles until after I completely wean, so we're looking at June at the earliest.

Just realized I didn't really answer your question. I don't think anyone can really answer the "crazy or doable" question but you. I work full-time and as I mentioned I breastfeed for one year for each child (pumping at work is a pain, but I'm too cheap to pay for formula, LOL). I have basically been pregnant or breastfeeding continuously for the past five years. That said, I have an amazing mother-in-law who babysits for us (we do pay her well), I work from home two days a week and we have other family close by to help out. I couldn't imagine trying to get pregnant again in another two months, but that doesn't make you crazy for thinking you can do it.

Thanks pink! I always forget that breast feeding mums have to take that into consideration. i cant breast feed () so that part is out of the equation. Im not sure i can imagine getting pregnant again so soon either :/
