Introduction (children mentioned)

in TTC after 35
Hi! I am 35 years old. I have been lurking for a little while and thought that I would intro. I have two wonderful children who I adopted as a single parent. I have always wanted a lot of children and I have been waiting for Mr. Right to come along. However, he has yet to appear :) I have been debating my options for several years and because of the expense of adoption, I have decided to TTC. I am VERY new to the process and I do not intend to begin until Jan because of insurance reasons, but I am beginning the charting, blood tests, etc journey now. I look forward to learning all of this new language and information from you!

Mother of two wonderful boys! Blessed through adoption.

    Welcome aboard!
    Me: 38 DH: 40 TTC#1 (and likely only) since 9/13. Saw RE 5/14, SA good, AMH 2.36, FSH 7.2, estradiol 69.6 indicating good egg reserve. Using OPKs. First Letrozole cycle 6/14, a burst cyst and a BFN. Second Letrozole cycle 7/14, BFN. 

    Update 11/14 - had laparoscopy 10/28, good news is that my uterus and left tube look good, and they were able to drain the cyst on my left ovary. Bad news is that right tube and ovary have endo and scar tissue, so they're pretty useless.. Best news is that we finally have some answers and a path forward. Taking 7.5 mg letrozole CD 2-6 to put that good left ovary through its paces. 

    UPDATE 2/2015 - We switched to another fertility clinic, but fortunately we don't have to start all over. We're doing two cycles of Clomid plus IUI, if neither of those take, we'll do IVF in April, potentially with ICSI. (DH's SA has gone downhill, likely due to excessive exercise.) IUI#1 2/25/15....
