Hi I have pcos and had ivf. I had a short cycle of ivf no issues at all monitored well through the meds. Only had 6 eggs collected and it worked first time. Is there anything inarticulate you want to know? X

Hey, sorry mine is not the most positive but will hopefully put your mind at ease a little. I started stims last week and had my first scan on Friday. Unfortunately my ovaries have hyper stimulated so I am having to cancel this cycle. I noticed after just one injection that I was already getting bloated, by the third I could no longer fit into trousers and was having stabbing pains (same pain as a cyst but more frequent and on both sides). Dr isn’t concerned and it’s looking like I can just try again next cycle but with a reduced dosage. Just be sure to look out for symptoms and as they do a scan early on, they can stop before anything gets severe and it shouldn’t cause much delay.

Life is great as older single mom of 1, baby 2 at 45?

I’m 44 with a 5 year old and life is amazing. I’ve been raising this kid alone the whole time and I’m living a dream life where I live between the US, Thailand and Spain. I own a home, have a good remote job, keep my kid with me all day.

I want to have a second child. But not desperately. I’d need to borrow some semen from the bank and while I think it’s unfortunate to not know the origin of the semen and the possibility of 100 siblings , I’m open to it. My insurance covers IUI and IVF through my next birthday.

Would you start over as mom of an infant at 45 years old?

Pregnancy test

I took this pregnancy test and then a few days later I looked at it again and noticed a very faint line but then I took 3 more on different days and they all came out negative. What’s going on? I’m tripping out because I see it but my husband says he doesn’t.

Positive test?

Do yall see it? There’s the original and another one that I added sharpness to and stuff to see the faint liner more better. I took more and they came out negative. So I’m so confused. Also that line didn’t appear immediately I noticed it like the next day.

Any ideas what’s happening with my temp?

Thought I had ovulated but now I’m not so sure, I didn’t record my temp on a couple of days because I’ve been unwell with a fever so it was a lot higher than it should of been
