Kristy ~ I hate to say it because age is such a big factor but your signature says you are 26 and that is still young IF BY CHANCE the IVF fails your stats are stilll good to do IVF again untill 35-36, so if you decide to adopt and still want to try later you have that option.
When we are going through infertility and have that want for another child, we feel like it has to be now and when I look at your age, I'm just happy that you still have some time to build your family (because it sounds like what you want to do). As I reach 34 (In March) and still have that want to build my family and that ache in my heart age is starting to creep up, I hate that DARN TIME CLOCK!
I hope that this cycle works for you. IVF is expensive and it is really hard on your body, and it doesn't mean a child at the end. Adoption is tough (there is a TON of paperwork and lots of waiting), but there is a child at the end of it!
Good luck on building your family!
