TTC after 35

Intro

Hi ladies,

I usually post on TTTC, but I lurk here sometimes so I thought I'd introduce myself.  All of our info is in my siggy, but the basics are that we started TTC in June 2010, I was diagnosed with severe endo in August 2011, and we are on our 3rd Clomid/IUI cycle.  According to our RE, or next step is injects/iui (10-20% chance of success) or IVF (45% chance.)  So if this cycle isn't successful, we'll likely do an injects/iui cycle in January, mainly to see how I respond to the meds, and who knows, maybe we'd get lucky!  Then on to IVF in the spring, hopefully.

My DH and I live in Texas, are both teachers,  love college football, and have one sweet, spoiled doggy.

Have a great weekend!

Re: Intro

  • Welcome, Kelly.  I lurk/occasionally post on TTTC so I recognize you.  Best of luck this cycle and beyond.  

    I was glad to stop Clomid and move to injectables -- the drugs are more expensive, but the shots aren't too bad, and so far I'm not nearly as moody as I was on Clomid.

  • I am so glad that this is my last cycle of Clomid!  For me, it's headaches, feeling hot ALL the time, especially at night when I'm trying to sleep, and major irritability.  Even if this isn't our cycle, I'm going to be glad to move on to something else.
