TTC after 35

Going for it!

First, I want to thank everyone for all their kinda words!  You guys are really the best!

We decided to just go ahead and go for it...we figure if this really is the last hoorah with my eggs then we better just throw it all at the wall and see what sticks!

I actually feel really good about this cycle and how things are progressing...I'm keeping the hope alive!

And to quote Strunella...you just never know!

Re: Going for it!

  • good for you Char! Like everyone's said, you just never know. With our first IVF I only had 5 eggs retrieved, with only 3 fertilizing. 2 were really good quality and 1 was so so. We put in all 3 and wound up having DD #1 from that, so I definitely believe in just going for it and keeping the hope alive.

     Best of luck - I hope this cycle's the one for you!!

  • Sounds like a GREAT plan and I have a really good feeling about this for you. I do believe you have several rock stars in there!

  • Fingers crossed for you!  Keep that good feeling going!
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...
