Hi Everyone, I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU I feel so alone in this craziness!!! I have so much support but no one can understand the emotions the fear and everything else that comes along!! I am 37 and 13 years ago I had my tubes tied after 2 wonderful boys. I have now been married 3 years to an amazing man and we want to have a baby. We tried over a year ago in May of 2008 to Tubal reversal with no luck. We then looked into IVF and here we are. Now lets just say I am excited and freaked all in the same breath, First I just sent my Baby who is 18 to College and I have a 13 year who just started the 8th grade and NOW I AM STARTING OVER and I am 37!!!! But to do this with such an incredible man who does not have children of his own is beyond rewarding!! We started Shots on the 24th I went into the doctors today and my eggs are in the 9 to 12 range (i guess that is there size) he said he wants them in the 18 range so we think retrieval will be on Wednesday of next week. I am happy to have found this forum to see what If what i am going through is normal and to have a place to vent
