Hi- I'm new on here. Feeling lost in life because nobody I know understands the struggles of infertility. I have been with my husband for almost 10 years, married 3. We decided to wait until we were financially stable to have a child, wish we would have known how difficult it would be... I have been diagnosed with unexplained fertility and him with a low sperm count/mobility. Been on Femara for 6 months or so. We're doing our 2nd IUI this week. Trying to stay positive but it's hard. I almost want to just move to IVF but it's expensive so we're trying the less expensive option a couple times first.
TTC 4 years. 7 failed IUI's with either Clomid, Femara and/or Trigger Shots. Started IVF journey in February 2017. Polyps removed in May. 1st IVF Transfer September 26th. BFP. Expected due date 6/14/18. Baby boy born 5/25/18 at 6 lb 9 oz. My bundle of joy.
