I just wanted to share that despite being diagnosed with POF and Diminished Ovarian Reserve only FOUR months ago, I got the official BFP!!!!
6 preg tests and several blood tests from the Dr. I can't believe it!

I want to share my blog with those of you who haven't read it, as it goes through all the alternative supplements and treatments I did that completely turned my diagnosis around. In January my FSH was 133, was told I was POST menopausal and was given the Donor Egg speech ...

Back in January a specialist told me the only way I could have a child was through In-vitro. Soon after he sent me to the office of his financial advisor for my counseling of the costs included with the procedure. I sat there completely stunned not hearing one word of the thousands of dollars I would need for the entire process. I just couldn’t grasp the idea I couldn’t have my own child.

We have done 3 previous IUI cycles with no success, the first one however seemed doomed since my hormones were so out of whack. I was able to get pregnant 5 years ago with my daughter doing IUI so I know it can work for me but it just seems like its not taking this time. After this cycle we are considering IVF and we only have enough money to do it once, maybe twice if we get some embryo's to freeze. I am so scared of IVF and don't know what to expect. Any comments are welcome.

I'm a newcomer to the group. I had a tubal ligation in 2004. My husband and I recently have both decided that we would like to add a new addition(s) to our family. I have my first appointment at the Reproductive Center in Canfield, Ohio next week to discuss IVF and take the neccessary steps to get the ball rolling. I'm not real sure what to expect at this first visit. I'm 35yrs old and not getting any younger

Cycle Day 2: Feb, 21, 2013 Baseline Sono everything good. Dr. Le was in surgery so he could not do the Sono. Nurse Christy did it instead.

I've taken the 5 Provera pills and now wait in a not-so-patiently manner for AF to arrive. I've been feeling PMS symptoms so much that I'm going out of my mind here. I've been so irritable with DH and I keep craving junk food :-( Additionally, when I use the restroom, I keep checking just to be disappointed. I feel bloated and irritable and it's just not nice to be me right now...

In the meanwhile, I've contacted the acupuncturist that treated me for IVF #1 via email and let her ...
