Wanted to introduce myself and say hello. I just had my first IVF stim cycle in August and I'm waiting for my FET at the end of October. I have 3 embryos on ice.
A little about me: I'm 41, and I've been TTC for about 7-8 years. As much as I love my friends and family, no one fully gets how hard this road is. Hoping to join a supportive group, where I can help and be helped. Excited to get to know you all.
