After our last sway at a girl ended with a beautiful and healthy boy we are now beginning our journey at IVF/PGD to attempt a chance at having a little princess. We have done all the pre-tests, and should be starting our cycle towards the end of July with a retrieval sometime in mid August. My only concern is I had a very low (undetectable) AMH and am 38. I was breastfeeding at the time and have now stopped, taken COQ10, DHEA, and had a retest yesterday and do no know my results. At this point, our RE is planning on using an Estrogen Priming Protocol, which is typically used for low responders, so I am not sure how all of this will turn out. I am excited, yet very nervous at how I will feel using the money for this purpose and it might not work at all.

I'm in San Antonio too. I'm new to all of this, but I wasn't even aware anyone in SA even did PGD IVF!! I had been thinking of going to SIRM in Dallas, so this is so exciting to learn. I'm al little ways out though...just had my second little boy 9 weeks ago. I'd like to start trying when he's about 16-18 months, so aroundNov 2014, and I'll be 31. I would love to follow your journey!
