[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Got pregnant on the first try at 35, happy and healthy pregnancy and wonderful child.  Started TTC #2 at 36 and after a few months went to the gyn for Day 3 bloodwork.  Found very low AMH (.30), but okay AFC (10) and great FSH (5).  Was diagnosed with decreased ovarian reserve and told that I would never be able to get pregnant naturally and that IVF would have a very low chance of working.  I didn't believe GYN and went to an RE.  Now it's been 5 years of TTC, IUIs (medicated) and IVFs, and still no pregnancy.  That first GYN was right.  I'm now 41 and feel like I will never able to get pregnant a second time.  I have a lot of regret about waiting too long with #1.  How do you deal with/cope with this kind of regret about waiting when you're not able to get pregnant again?

We can't afford donor eggs or adoption now given how much we've paid out of pocket for IUIs and IVFs over the last 5 years.[/quote]

don't beat yourself over it. you started your family at a fairly reasonable age. there is no guarantee that you would be more successful if you started earlier.[/quote]
