[quote=Anonymous]Posting on this board because I'm hoping to get some feedback from parents who have experience with IVF (and posting on the Infertility board seems insensitive). I froze eggs at age 34 because I was single and wanted kids later in life. I'm now happily married and have a two year old with whom we got pregnant relatively quickly (2 months). I'm about to turn 40 and we've been trying for 3 months, so a fairly short time period. I've recently had two friends of similar age with pregnancies resulting in genetic abnormalities, so this has been on my mind, though I have no idea if their age played any role. I realize loads of age 40+ women have healthy pregnancies and that the chances that I would have a healthy pregnancy are very good. But, I also have a good number of eggs (50+ due to an overstimulation) sitting on ice and my employer's benefits would fully cover the cost of IVF. I realize IVF is not easy, but since I've already done the retrieval and the costs would be covered, might this be a logical path now? Or, is the transfer process only something someone would want to deal with after several more months of trying naturally? Any thoughts would be useful! [/quote]
