[quote=Anonymous]I got pregnant on the first try at 35, super easy pregnancy and delivery. Started TTC #2 at 37. I tried for 4 years unsuccessfully and was told I had unexplained secondary infertility. We did IUIs, one IVF, and one surgery (uterine to remove endometriosis) before we decided no more fertility treatments/interventions and just try naturally. I could not handle IVF, I thought it was awful. In the four years I had zero positive pregnancy tests. At the end of the four years I started getting peri-menopause symptoms, and that's when we decided to stop trying. My cycles started getting irregular and my estrogen level plummeted. I figured if I couldn't get pregnant at 37 when my numbers were great then it really wasn't happening at 41 when my numbers were mediocre. So we have an only child. [/quote]
