Hi Everyone,
I'm relatively new to the Seattle area, and struggling with TTC and multiple miscarriages. Anyone know if they have support groups in Seattle for infertility? It would be nice to talk with other couples going through the process...
TIA

Re: Any TTC over 35 ladies in Seattle?
I'm going to be 36 next month, and have been TTC for over 2 years without luck. There's a group of ladies on here who are dealing with infertility and we get together occasionally, and I've found the TTC over 35 board on the bump to be a nice source of support. I just started going to therapy, which I have found to be very helpful. It looks like there is a Resolve support group that meets once a month in Kirkland: https://www.resolve.org/ but I don't know much about them.
Or if you ever want to get together for coffee let me know!

I am 40 years old. I had my son after two miscarriages. I am glad that I took the Recurrent Pregnancy Loss Tests. They put me on baby aspirin. And then on progeterone when I was pregnant with the son.
And I was active on TTC after a Loss--and then Pregnant After a Loss when I got pregnant.
It feels more difficult now that I am 40 years old. I may honestly have to have extra help if we TTC for #2.
I just turned 40, and had my son when I was 39. I was 37 when I got married and started TTC. We tried on our own, then did the IF testing. We did 3 IUI's and 2 IVF's, and had one miscarriage, before finally having our first baby. We are going to try on our own for #2, but kind of assuming we may need IF help, again.
If you find that you do need IF help, there are a lot of us here who can share our experiences. I'm very sorry about your losses!
