Thanks, I will look into that, Anchor. I'm seeing my OB this week for a follow up.

Thank you. I'm not sure this was the right place to put this post. I'm dealing with hormones crashing and I'm freaked out about the whole TTC thing all over again. This has brought up worries I...

My previous M/Cs were chromosomally ABnormal. :broken: I believe this one might have been too, based on what the tech said about the yolk sac. i will find out the final results soon. I have had many...

I had grand plans to sway for #3 next year, but found out I was having a "surprise" due this November. At first I was freaked out, but quickly became excited about having another baby. I decided to...

Thanks 1+2+3boys... the MCs actually happened BEFORE I had DS1. Then I had my healthy DS2 right after him. There were no answers from any doctor, all my tests came back normal. It was just bad luck,...

Boom, there was no reason for my recurrent MC's. I was 26, fit and healthy, perfect 28 day cycles, positive ovulation tests same day each month. I had multiple tests done by an RE and it was...

OK, now I'm thinking I'm not so sure I can see myself sanely going through with HT. Ever. What LacePrincess says confirms what I have been reading for about a year... that after all that time and...

Thank you everyone for your perspectives.

LacePrincess, I thought about that too... the huge investment in time and energy would make it all the more devastating. It can add up to years out of...

I'm almost 31 and had my youngest 8 months ago. Ideally I want to just enjoy my boys and not worry about HT until my little guy is around 3, but by then I'll be 34 and verging on "advanced maternal...

It seems pretty common for the first cycle of ivf to fail. (Am I right?) So, if you spend $20K or more only to get a BFN, how devastating is it? Does it damage your relationship? Do you go through...

I've always wondered, if a cycle is unsuccessful in that there are no transfers, is it less expensive than if there was a transfer? If so, by how much?

I can imagine the greatest devastation of...

Atomic, were those who regretted HT unsuccessful, or did it work for them but they regretted it for some other reason?

If you do HT and it doesn't "take" or you miscarry, what next? What are your options? Is FET with leftover embryos usually fairly successful, and is it significantly less expensive?

My biggest...

Thanks! I'll be glad to share my blue dust with you, lovebabies2!

I'm the mother of a beautiful one year old boy. We're going to start TTC in April, after we get back from a big trip this month.

I'm hoping to tip the odds in favor of a girl this time.

TTC was...
