TTC after 35

New to the boards...TTC through IVF

Hi, I am new to the bump and wanted to introduce myself. I am 35 and my husband is 43. We both have children from a previous marriage and my husband had a vasectomy sixteen years ago. We have never wanted to do the vasectomy reversal, so we had closed the door on the idea of having a child together. Recently we heard they can retrieve the sperm without doing a reversal so we looked into it and sure enough it is possible. We would love to have a child together now that it is possible. So this is our journey!

We have been to the fertility clinic and I have had the U/S to check my follicle reserve. This turned out great since they look for at least ten follicles and I had 21! All my blood tests came back great as well. Husband goes for urology consult and I have a pre-IVF trial embryo transfer and hysteroscopy next week.

I would love to know about other experiences with IVF and other women TTC
