Hi and a question...

thiswillbethiswillbe
in LGBT Parenting

First off, HI!! I'm having issues getting this site to come up properly on my work computer, so I'm not around here much. I miss you all!

Second, I have some infertility-related qs, and figured you all would know better than I would: Where are all the IF folks these days? thebump, the Other board, some Other Other board I don't know about...? TIA for the help!

    I think most people that participate on the other board also check in here. Ask away!

    There are several people who check in here and/or GBCN, and several LGBT bumpies who participate on IF and/or TTTC.  You can ask wherever you feel comfortable.

    TTC with PCOS since July 2011.
    IVF Oct/Nov 2012
    Beta #1 = 77, Beta #2 = 190, Beta #3 = 1044
    Cautiously optimistic.

    Seems like all the IF communities on The Bump are still intact, so you can post on whichever board seems right.  If you want my color commentary, feel free to PM me...but I'll just say you should probably start off over at Secondary IF, as people on TTTC are pretty touchy about people already having kids (be sure to have a ticker/siggy warning if you do post there), and IF is pretty focused on IVF specifically.
    Same sex couple TTC with donor sperm.  I am 35 and carrying.  Endometriosis and DOR.
    AMH 0.5, AFC 5-8, FSH 7ish

    IVF #1 - antagonist.  Empty follicle syndrome.  1 retrieved, 0 fertilized.
    IVF #2 - antagonist.  Ovulated early.  3 retrieved, 2 fertilized, 0 blasts

    Just ask here. Or, you know, PM me, because some days I think I am my own RE.

    we did IVF  and a few IUI with no success and were misdiagnosed with PCOS and realize its just a mystery as to why id did not work with IUI's .

    If its something I can not answer or dont know about I can ask our RE as we spear head and round table  their marketing towards the LGBT community so they are typically available to answer.

    I am also happy to answer any questions I can.

    If you want to ask a wider audience and the question pertains to you, I'd ask on the Secondary IF board because you already have kids.  If it doesn't pertain to you, or if it's just a general question, feel free to try the IF board, which does tend to be somewhat IVF-focused but my impression is that the women there have more IF/RE experience than TTTC.

    Definitely don't forget to add "ticker warning" in your title if you post on IF or TTTC!
