TTC after 35

Hello, I'm new(ish)

Hello!

I read the first post and understand that we should introduce ourselves as part of the board... so, here I am!

I'm a 38yo yarn-addicted mommy (I love to crochet!) of a 2yo son who will be 3 in September.  We're currently in an IVF with ICSI cycle this month.  I had a hysteroscopy this past Thursday and will be starting injections tentatively on the 14th.

I've been part of The Bump for many years, under a different name, but have updated my username since I have some family members who are on The Knot and The Nest and I'd rather remain a bit more anonymous to them with regards to our trying for #2 to avoid the uncomfortable conversations... If things go our way, we don't want to share the news widely with friends/family until after the first trimester.

Just wanted to say hi :)

  • Welcome (back!) :)
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
    12/17/14 - Natural BFP!
