IVF - 40

Starting IVF from the beginning aged 40 as we have no eggs left after a failed FET in May this year. We have a virtual call on the 27th then it’s all go from there. I am really excited but also feeling extremely nervous with the egg collection due to my age. I really want to be positive but I’m finding it really hard. I know everyone is completely different but looking for some positive stories from anyone in their 40’s older that have had a few embryos and went on to have a pregnancy ❤️ thank you!

I was 40 when we started IVF and we got 6 eggs at collection and 5 were mature and 3 fertilized and after PGT testing we had 2 normal embryos and our daughter is 3. We have a boy embryo in freezer and we are going to our consultation Nov 18 to discuss starting our embryo transfer process . We want to start as soon as possible esp since I’m 44 now . Age is just a number gurl . If you are healthy and embryos are healthy it can definitely happen ❤️❤️❤️miracles happen

I had my egg collection 2 months before I turned 40. Then was pregnant ( first one was chemical, second FET worked ), and gave birth just before turning 41.
Age definitely will affect quality of eggs , but all you can do is try . All the best x

3 days late!

I am 3 days late on my period . I have not been this late since i found out I was pregnant with my daughter. I did take two different pregnancy tests I had at home one said negative the other one I had a line all ready there when I opened it up . So I did not take it. I am waiting until Wednesday to go get more tests and take them .

Irregular period ~ HELP

I’m 10 months postpartum, to start of my periods were some what regular when they started again and then they sort of started doing their own thing…just to clarify I never breastfed due to not being able too.

However I haven’t had a period in 6 weeks, I’ve taken 3 pregnancy tests and they’ve all come back negative. My last few periods have had 5/6 weeks between them but I’m not sure when I should start getting worried?

I use the natural cycles app and track my fertile days etc with this, but in September it told me I didn’t ovulate at all. I’m just looking for some advice to see if anyone’s been in the same boat?
