Hello, everyone. I'm 35 married woman. We've been trying to get pregnant for 4 years. We tried a lot of different treatments. Nothing helped My husband dreams to have a son which would look like him. And I dream about a little princess. But last year all our dreams were destroyed. I found out that I'm infertile. My doctor said there's no chance to give birth to a baby. It was a black day of our lives. I was afraid that my husband will ask me to divorce, but he didn't. So, now we are looking for different ways to get a baby. My doctor said that we can try the surrogacy. Any positive recommendations? I need as many good stories as possible.
Hi Swift2017 , Im sure you can get loads of positive stories on the Success after IF board. We are all infertile here, so our successful stories are yet to come. Good luck to you in your journey! It will all seam like a dream when you will finally have your baby

Hi- I’m so sorry. Years ago, when we were trying and hearing
from a doctor that I was infertile made me so upset and really frustrated. My monthly period was irregular, like once or
twice a year and I was also diagnosed with polycystic ovaries. So I had
infertility treatments for 2 years, countless Clomid, shots and one surgery. It
was not an easy journey, thankfully, I got pregnant and my son now is 16 years
old. I hope you will have your heart’s desire to have a child. Have you
discussed IVF with your doctor? I have a friend that had a successful IVF, you
may want to consider this treatment. Update us please. You will be in my
prayers.
Hello @swift2017, I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. What did the RE tell you, that IVF and no other treatment is possible? Do you have frozen embies for a surrogate?
My TTC journey:
Me and DH: 30-35 Unexplained infertility TTC #1 since 2015 11/2015 - BFP! 12/2015 - MC IVF #1 July 2017 freeze all (20 eggs, 15 mature, 10 fert, 6 blasts, 4 PGS normal) FET #1 TBD Surprise BFP 9/2017 while waiting for FET... hoping for the best!
This post reminds me of those biotex scam posts. If this is not one of those Eastern European surrogate/embryo adoption commercials, then intro yourself properly and join in on some ongoing threads. If this IS biotex traffic scamming again.... sigh. At least let's have a new story. I should be grateful there was no infertile sister too.
@dragonette505 I didn't think of that possibility... good catch!

They always dramatically tell us with no talk of actual treatments or diagnoses: I CAN NEVER HAVE A BABY. I'm 44 and that may be true for me, but not one doc in the 4 or 5 clinics I've either cycled with or had second opinion consultations has said that yet. I mean "no chance to give birth to a baby"?! What else you gonna give birth to?!? never mind me, I'm coming down off all these meds and have no filter. Lol

Yeah I always hated it when people said that... and it's always the pregnancy announcements on Facebook "My doctor said I'd NEVER have children, but we just had an oops and now I'm expecting!!!" gtfo, lol.
@Crystal321 yeah, never is a long time! There are women older than me who get pregnant naturally so why tell someone never when it's statistically possible. I just think people like drama. I bet those people you saw posting were told it would be difficult but possible or something like that. But EVERYBODY wants to be a miracle.....
I like what the Singaporean Dr of my friend told her, "As long as you are menstuating, you can get pregnant. I'll make sure of it." Wow, superb confidence right?
Hello there. I'm sorry to hear that. Have you done fertility treatment before ?. Have you tried to consult in another doctor ?. Sometimes other doctors will give different diagnoses. Are you not interested in doing IVF ?. IVF is the right one you can use to get a child. My sister has children through IVF. She has infertility problems. So she chose IVF path to get the child. Maybe you can try it too. But do consult with your doctor first. Doctor who better understand what to do. If you are interested in surrogacy, you should think about the legality and surrogate mother. Surrogate mother is the ultimate thing because she will take your child in her womb. Whatever your choice may you succeed.
