I am getting serious about IVF and have started lurking on the bump again, so I thought it was time to intro here.
I was semi active on 3T about a year ago when I was still in the medicated IUI process.
I started TTC in early 2012. After my first IUI the doctor told me that she strongly recommended IVF based on my age and DOR. I took me awhile to mentally get there especially because we are 100% oop on everything. I remember after my third (failed) IUI and another IVF discussion with the doctor, that it clicked. During the last year I took a mental break from TTC, and am working (successfully) on losing a few extra pounds and getting healthier. DH and I are looking at IVF late summer right now, and are very strongly considering a "vacation" IVF trip to Mexico. Right now I am doing some research on that as well. Thanks for having me and I look forward to learning from you gals!
Me: 40, Hypothyroidism, well managed, TSH 1.99
DH: 44 Fine except for low morphology
TTC since 02/2013
08/13: Day 3 tests (ESTRADIOL 20.8; AMH 1.1; FSH 6.2)
12/13 HSG, all clear
11/13-5/14 - IUIs #1-3, BFNs,
6/14 to present: Taking a break, getting healthier, researching IVF
Welcome. I'm sorry you find yourself here, but hope this board brings you comfort and support. I think it's great that you are working towards a healthy lifestyle and a relaxing trip sounds ideal! We took a trip to Mexico before beginning IVF too!
Welcome! We are headed to Jamaica for our pre IVF trip in 10 days! We had planned for Mexico but IVF cycle timing messed that up for us and all the best resorts were booked
Thank you for the welcomes... so we are actually looking at doing IVF IN Mexico or Costa Rica. I thought I would start a new thread about it at some point. I have been doing a lot of research on it, and it seems like it might be a good fit for us.
