in TTC after 35
Hi! I am going through my first IVF. I am on day 9 of stims. I had my fourth US today. They keep telling me my follicle sizes and counts and from what I can tell the counts don't really tell you much except that you're responding. I almost wish I didn't know because it seems to just give one more thing to obsess about. Anyway egg retrieval is tentatively on track for Saturday. I have not had many side effects but I am anxious for it to be over. The injections have been a piece of cake. I was so nervous. Besides being a little time consuming, it's really not that bad if anyone is worried. Also wanted to let anyone know that we are paying out of pocket and yes it's a lot but keep an open mind. We said we could never afford IVF and low and behold here we are. Once we decided our family who are not rich at all gave us some and we got creative to come up with the rest. We also were fortunate to receive some meds through the out of pocket meds program. Definitely look into it! Best of luck to everyone. We bought two fresh cycles and as many frozen as we have embryos for so one way or another this process will be over by fall. Then if it doesn't work we'll go enthusiastically full force to adoption accepting that our child was meant to come to us that way. Best of luck to everyone and thanks for reading my update!

She will match you with someone who has a need for the meds you have and then you and that person will make arrangements for getting it to them. They encourage the recipient to pay for shipping. The recipients are active bumpies who are paying for meds out of pocket.
