I am sending lots ofto you! I love it that you are 43. I am hoping to have another baby at 43. Just had one at 41 and it has been a GREAT experience. I am also encouraged that this isn't so rare any more. My mom is horrified, but I just keep reminding myself that she is from another generation .

Happy belated Birthday!

to our little party. I have to admit we have one fur baby, he is a 35 lb of pure LOVE. Now we are trying for a human kind

Have a safe trip. We will be for you here, and you on. Is your DH come alone?

Hi everybody! I am in the process of selecting a new RE. My last RE had NO LUCK with women age 41-42. So, I am consulting with CCRM and Cornell. I am leaning towards CCRM purely because of their numbers. I am a SAHM, so I do not have to worry about work. And, my mother volunteered to babysit Isabella while I cycle.

Btw, I did conceive with Isabella on my first IVF w/ICSI.

Lots of eggies to all those scheduled for ER and

ER day is tentative, we'll know next week sometime.

Did you see on the news about that lady with quintuplets? They say she is a single mother of six that went through infertility treatment and doctor put 8 eggs in her. Do you believe it? I'm still perplexed, how was that possible? In my clinic even if you are over 35 you get only 3 eggs at one time.

Sounds like you are not alone to go for CCRM, 8kitts will go there too. Good luck to you ladies! I have to research this clinic just in case.

I did see the news about her... it isn't quints it is octuplets. It is a mystery to me how this could happen with IVF. Sounds like an irresponsible dr to me.
about the news for your ER.

Thanks Kay, that is sweet of you. How you feeling, out of cold spell yet? Your little ones birthday so close to my. I'd love to have baby in October, God willing I might just have one then.

[Kay]

I'm still suffering with the cold. It has been nice though taking a couple of quiet days at home.
I conceived Clara last Feb and she was born 5 weeks early in Oct. Oct is a good month... before all the holidays.

Hello all!
I am smack in the middle of a long Lupron protocol...and let's just say this whole thing is a testament to my desire for my son to have a sibling. I have had a rough time w/ the meds ~ "extreme" side effects (docs words). So glad this board exists; I am 43 and most of my friends are done w/ the baby gig so support is hard to come by in the real world.
Started stim meds today, thank God, wish me luck!!

aliona69, when are you going to CCRM? Where do you live? I'm in NY.

Bella, did you get my PM? to the cougar club, lol.

Kay, I hope you are feeling better from the cold, and I REALLY hope that we can beat the odds together!

I've been up since 6am, too much on my mind!!!! I'm going to run out and do some shopping, like the old fart that I am, I'll probably bump into some senior citizens this early. Have a great day everyone.

Hi All-
Glad to join you! I think this is a great thread. I have often felt like I was one of the only ones of my age to be doing IVF. Glad to see that there are a few others here.

As you can see by mig sig. this is our 7th cycle. It took 6 to finally get pg with our DD who was born in June.
We are also trying for a sibling. Using the same exact protocol as last time...so hoping it will be 'one and done' this time around.

I wish all of you tons of !
