✨ January/February IVF! ✨

Jennifer • TTC baby #1 since 09/2016. 7 IUIs, 2 IVF egg retrievals, 3 embryo transfers, 2 miscarriages. Norah Josephine born 8/9/21!

Hi, ladies!

I’m Jen. I’m 33 (will turn 34 in March), DH is 36. Been married four years, TTC two years and four months. After the first year, we did five rounds of <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>. Got pregnant on the third, but miscarried and had to get a D&C. Have never gotten pregnant trying naturally. Unexplained infertility but possible slight male factor.

It has been four months since our last <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> and we’re moving on to <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> this month. Started birth control tonight (01/09), will go in for a trial transfer and a saline sonogram next Wednesday (01/16) and then start stims within a few days after that.

Our ideal situation is to have enough good embryos to let them age to day 5 blastocysts and do PGS testing with a frozen transfer in a few months, but I have diminished ovarian reserve so if I end up producing only a few eggs and my day 3 amount is low, we may do a fresh transfer with no testing instead.

I’m excited but also pretty nervous. Anyone else a first-timer, and/or doing <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> in the next month?
