"Six IVFs and two miscarriages later, I am pregnant after infertility. At 45."
- 4karma points
- 3were inspired
I got married at 40 and have been hoping / trying for a baby ever since. My husband and I knew that starting to try for a baby over 40 was a long shot. We didn't know about my stage 4 endometriosis. After one IVF in 2005, we have had four donor egg IVFs with two different donors. One chemical pregnancy, one ectopic, two negatives. We never thought it would take this long. We still have seven blasts frozen and we still have a lot; each other, many hard lessons, and hope.

www.clearpassage.com My husband and I have been challenged with this blessing as well. I just returned from a week of physical therapy for pain, endometriosis and infertility. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check out www.clearpassage.com. They are a god send. It's the only non-invasive procedure for us. They're success rates are highly encouraging and it will increase your likelihood for a successful IVF! AND Change your life :-)
