[quote=Anonymous]I would move quickly to IVF—and possibly donor egg.

I had a TFMR at 38, had a baby at 39, then another TFMR AT 41. We were lucky to have no trouble conceiving, but I couldn’t bear another termination for chromosomal reasons. We moved to IVF about 15 months ago.

I did four rounds of IVF. Got over 60 eggs. Only 3 made it to blast. All abnormal.

We just did a round of frozen eggs with a proven donor. Out of seven, five fertilized and we got four blasts. Transferred one and froze two. One arrested. Currently waiting on my test. The 26 yr old donor eggs are clearly an improvement over my 41-42 yr old ones.

When I first went to IVF, my therapist said she felt confident with my history that I could have another child, but it might be through a donor egg. I scoffed. I didn’t even consider it.

What I’ve heard and read from DE moms is that they wished they’d gone to DE sooner. I wish I had, too. It took me awhile to get here, but the hormones, emotions, weight gain, and mental toll were harrowing.

Best of luck with whatever you choose. [/quote]
