Hi, how are you? How is your weekend?
I’m With You
Hi Sohpia. My DH and I are starting the adoption process as well. We are also sitting on the IVF fence but have pretty much decided adoption is a better option for us. Have you started the process yet? I hoping to find other couples going through through the process. Hoping and praying all your dreams come true. :)

wanted to stop by to see how things were going for you and the hubby. Have you made any progress with the donor sperm? I hope all has been well.

Support Groups
Close Infertility
Always assumed that I would have children later in life (I'm 39) and now that my husband and I are ready, we're not able to conceive. My husband has a high degree of DNA fragmentation (male factor) and I'm a 'poor ovarian responder'. We successfully got pregnant after a 2nd round of IVF but lost our son at 22 weeks. I am now trying to decide whether to do another round of IVF or move on to donor egg/sperm.
Treatments
Close Pregnancy
Sophiah hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Stillbirth
We lost our baby at 22 weeks. He had a rare form of kidney disease that resulted in the loss of all my amniotic fluid. After years of infertility he was the result of our second round of IVF. At 39, I doubt I will be able to get pregnant again, and am too scared to try at this point.
Open Breastfeeding
Lost my baby at 22 weeks and am not faced with the pain of my milk coming in. I need some advice about what to do.
Open Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility
Not currently pregnant, but want to find out more about what I may face if I try again after the stillborn death of our son.
