TTC after 35

Hi ***Ticker Warning***

Just stopping by to say hi. I really miss you guys. I thought graduating to the next board would be the best thing ever - which it totally is, don't get me wrong.

I just feel kinda lost without all my TTC35 gals. I try to lurk around and keep up, but I feel like I am missing out on so much. I know...I'll stop complaining. 

I hope you are all doing well and getting closer and closer to coming over to the other side. I need more familiar faces. 

 

*Llama, I swear, I am going to hurl that plastic cup directly at your DH if he doesn't get that SA done stat!

    ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
    Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive.  Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
