PS...I am a Dominion Patient, and the 47 year old mother by NCIVF is true. They don't have the oldest mother using her own eggs...I believe that record goes to New Hope (The Doc there is a past student of Dr. D at Dominion).

I don't see where this is so surprising to anyone...again...it is the ODDS (not so great, but in the ODDS) that some women will have limited ability to have children into their 50s.

It's just that very rarely do you have someone that is actually attempting pregnancy at that age...and gets help.

The late 40's ladies are usually the 'oops' babies.

BTW...after 3 IVF attempts, I also had an 'oops' pregnancy happen after my twins were born. It didn't work out for us...the pregnancy spontaneously aborted...but it DOES happen!

Signed, Dr Ds staff. Hey, he is still paying for that third home!

So, you have to resurrect an old thread? Maybe you're the faker or have an ax to grind...

It gave me the inspiration to ttc with my own eggs and it took several tries but we are finally there.
BTW I'm not a DF patient but went to another clinic that specializes in NCIVF.

Congratulations! That is awesome!

And the 47 year old OP is of course real. And yes, it was at DF, natural cycle IVF.
I'm so happy for OP, and everyone that was inspired by this thread.

So why is shady Grove so against Nat cycle IVF? It seems like a lot of practices are including it as an option.

[Anonymous]

Because it's not as profitable and they are all about $$$$$

[Anonymous]

Profit is the only thing Shady Grove is interested in.

I'm at SGF bc I have UHC, but I'm thinking of switching to CFA or DF, does anyone know if they take UHC.
