View Full Post

Hi Everyone,

I am 44 this year and am TTC, I got married back in 2012 to my DH... We had a MC back in 2011.

I have 2 daughters for my previous married aged 20 & 16 with we love dearly.

I had been on the POP Cerazette/Cerelle for about 2 years and have hear so horror stories about not having AF etc...

Well I had been one of the lucky ones so far, I came off POP Jan 29th 2014 & O on the 13th.
Then on 15dpo AF came.

I guess I had mixed feelings as we are TTC but was still happy that we are in the game.

Anyone in the same boat?

Please share your stories

So, this cycle was a bust. And we have no frozen embryos, so we have to start over from scratch.

I'm absolutely devastated.

I'm 44 also and turn 45 in March and have been trying since May . We recently bought pre-seed , which has great reviews on getting pregnant . I have a 23 son in the military and 21 year old daughter , 13 year old son . My dh is 30 in November and we can't wait ! I take vitex,red clover,omega 3 -6-9, vitamin c , c Q 10 unibiquol , which is great for our eggs as well as Royal jelly . Vitamin e , prenatal, l - arginine , raspberry leaf, green tea . Prenatal . And drink spinach ,kale smoothies with maca and fruit . Heard the core of the pineapple is great to get pregnant . I remember it took me to get pregnant with my youngest(13) 9 months at 30 years old . I've always had natural pregnancies thank you God ??????Praying for all of you !!

Hello girls! I'm new here. I'm 44. I came here to find information about donor eggs. Last year I had failed try of IVF with my own eggs. Now doctors say I need to use donor eggs. This is my only chance to become a mother. So now step by step I get more into this whole procedure. I wish everyone luck!

Hello dear! I’m sorry about your situation. You still can conceive through ivf. Of course all of us including me would prefer to conceive naturally. I wish I could to do so... Anyway I see nothing wrong with ivf. The most important is to get pregnant and give birth to a healthy child. If ivf is necessary to do that, go for it. I will have to use ivf. The thing is that I will be using not my own eggs but donor eggs. That's little different. Well, this is different to me... Anyway as I've already mentioned the most important is a baby. We have to go all the way! I wish everyone good luck xx
