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

Just a data point, you can do donor eggs outside of US. In Europe a full cycle with meds and donor compensation can run you $6-8K total or so.[/quote]
