  • I hear ya sister!
    Me 39 & suspected PCOS, DH 42. Went off BCP when we got married in 11/11, seriously TTC since 3/12.  Six cycles of clomid = BFNs.  Suspected endometriosis & HSG showed both tubes blocked.  Sept 2013 IVF 5D transfer of two perfect embryos = BFN.  Started acupuncture and taking time off to drop some pounds & get healthier before FET in April 2014.
  • Me too. We used to be so spontanious. Now, not so much.

  • Lol.....so true.  The schedule can be such an eyeroll, so we try to ensure that we make time for date nights through out the month to keep us from thinking this is such a chore!  Best of luck in finding a good way to get through this journey with your partner.
