Just curious if there is any correlation. Not that we have a big enough sample to know, but wondering if there are any patterns.
TTC since Dec '04
Severe MFI-diagnosed 12/06
3 failed Fresh IVFs
FET #1 - BFP!! 2 blasts tx on day 6.
Beta #1 8dp6dt = 56, Beta #2 = 600, Beta #3 = 5600

Our IF diagnosis was: me - blocked right tube, hypothyroidism (but was fixed with meds); DH: low morph. We did clomid/IUI to get DS (BFP on the third round).
Our surprise pregnancy was a girl (miscarriage) and our diagnosis was unexplained.
It took 3 1/2 long years, but we finally got our little miracle!
IVF #1 - BFP (6dt)
Unassisted Pregnancy #2 - lost at 15w6d due to T21, severe heart defects, and fetal hydrops
I never had a concrete diagnosis, just a general "Advanced Maternal Age" diagnosis (although I was 34 when I first started TTC and my FSH levels were normal) and my DH had low morphology (but great count).
After 5 years of TTC, 3 IUIs, 5 IVFs, 2 FETs, multiple losses and an adoption that wasn
My surprise baby is a girl and my diagnosis was PCOS and DH had motility issues.
It took over four years to be diagnosed with PCOS. We TTC #1 for 18 months, did 5 rounds of Clomid and finally moved onto IVF...which worked! Throughout our IF journey, we suffered 3 miscarriages. We conceived both DD and DS without treatment.
We have surprise BFP.. Diagnosis MFI amd abt 5 percent chance of ever having children on our own.. We are going to go team green! But my gut instinct is that it's another boy!
dh: severe MFI - counts less than 1million, poor morph and motility.

My first pregnancy wasn't a surprise but it also didn't involve any medical assistance. I had a boy. When having trouble becoming pregnancy again I was diagnosed as having diminished ovarian reserve and my husband was diagnosed with 0% morph.
Our surprise BFP resulted in another boy, but I miscarried at 14 weeks.
My IVF and clomid babies were girls and the baby I'm carrying now is the result of IUI but we don't know the sex yet.
Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12
Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
I still can't believe we got pg with DS when we did. I was just coming off of a miscarriage, and we had sex twice, 5 days apart. Three years of TTC with enough OPKs and TI to make a person lose their marbles, not to mention pills, shots, and IUIs and that's how it happens? Unreal.
All old wives tales said we would have a girl. Ha!
I have a son after my Hail Mary cycle before doing IVF #1. Even though I had been TTC for nearly 2 years it was a complete shock. We just did it the old fashion way! I was unexplained until about 10 days prior. We found out I had a blood clotting disorder, MTHFR, during my labs for IVF.

surprise BFP here. We had a girl.
I never had a concrete diagnosis, just a general "Advanced Maternal Age" diagnosis (although I was 34 when I first started TTC and my FSH levels were normal) and my DH had low morphology (but great count).
What is the baby's gender? Female as far as we know.
What was your original IF diagnosis? Anovulation (not PCOS but PCOS "type" anovulation) and severe MFI.
We are team green, but our diagnosis is:
me: damaged tube, prone to polyps
dh: severe MFI - counts less than 1million, poor morph and motility.
