Well folks, today is the day. I'm another year older.
I'm starting to get used to each birthday arriving with more wrinkles on my face and more grey hairs to dye.
The this one means that unless by some miracle I become pregnant within the next three months (which there is a slim chance because the donor egg preparation takes 3-4 months), I will get the pleasure of now being in the advanced maternal age category.
Oh and yes, I know with donor egg, a lot of things are different and age is less significant. But it's a little it's a little fertility milestone I wish I didn't know about.
Today, my gift to myself is that I'm going to be extra nice to myself. Yummy eats, and little treats is what it will be about!
Parenting after chronic infertility. Our story involves working with CCRM after experiences with diminished ovarian reserve, severe male factor infertility, 4 reproductive endocrinologists, 8 donor embryos, 2 IVFs, 6 FETS, 1 fresh donor egg cycle, 1 failed agency egg donor, 15 vitrified donor eggs, 4 surgeries for her, 1 for him, 3 miscarriages, 1 chemical and 5 canceled cycles. After seven years, one amazing couple set us on a new path by choosing us to be parents for their son.
Happy birthday, friend!!!
