Never thought we'd have any trouble, once we decided to go for the third. I am 31. Just thinking of making that 1st infertility appt....We have been thinking about adoption for a while, even before we had kids we would talk about it...he seems ready to explore that avenue...I'm not sure I am ready to let go of ever being pregnant again. Any advice, all this technical/medical stuff is overwhelming? Do you have tests first, then try meds? Does insurance cover anything/what are the begining costs? Thanks, Carrie

Depends on who you have for insurance? Most don't and it can cost a ton but I have heard that IVF can be less compared to adoption. See my story below...good luck! My 3 year old came very easy at age 32. Re still has no clue what my problem is.
My blood results with current baby in belly are in range of a 20 year old. Still not sure what the hold up was with getting pregnant. If your insurance can cover IVF I would go for it! The many IUIs and clomid did not work and just wasted so much time (and emotions).
