TTC over 40

starting new discussion as there hasn’t been anything here for a few years.  wondering if anyone is currently AMA and undergoing iui or ivf.  i’m 11dpiui, and pushing it at 45.

Hi there, I am not, but a popular website in DC (where I live) has an active ivf/fertility discussion and the TTC crowd is generally older than average, so may be helpful: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/forums/show/27.page

PS When I got my IVF workup at age 39, I requested to skip straight to IVF so as not to lose time with IUIs, etc. Thankfully my insurance allowed it. I ended up getting pregnant naturally but this was my plan, fwiw.  Best of luck! :-)

Hi hun, I tried 3 iui's & 2ivf's at 45 after DNC but nothing. Don't be discouraged if God has it in His plan for us we will see the blessing soon. Stay positive & hopeful, I know it's easier said than done but possible 🙏🌹❤  right now I'm 48 and next weekend AF suppose to intruded but last week I had severe EWCM with light pink on it 3days in a row. Lower back pain,  cramps, burning nipples for a day, and niw insomnia 😫 staying hopeful with PCOS 🙏
