I'm trying to stay calm until my FS visit on Thursday.
N2L, I know what you're saying hun and if the results are true then I'm trying to hold onto the hope that it's still possible to get a good embie that sticks. It's just such a shock to the system though..you know how I said that we have to keep positive and stay young at heart so our eggies stay young too? Well, I'm trying to stay positive, but boy, do I feel old now! lol. Ok, enough of feeling sorry for myself, gotta saty calm and positive...
It's never an easy time is it!! Horrible to have second guess tests. My AMH test was 1.4 & my husbands sperm is not to good either. My FS recommended DHEA before we tried this cycle for three months n fresh royal jelly. We only got one lil Embie that stuck(thank goodness) n are now 13 weeks. Lots of people have low ovarian reserve & with an excellent FS it's possible.
I wish you all the luck possible in achieving your dream xx
Bex, congrats hun! Thanks for sharing your story with me, it gives me much hope GL with the rest of your pg hun!
Just a bit of an update ladies....Went to see my FS yesterday and he basically said that although he is a little bit surprised the levels dropped that much, he is very happy with 3.8. He said that a woman of my age would genarally be between 1-1.5 in the ovarian reserve range. Holly cow!! Anyway, he said that my dosage of gonal was 225 last time (back in 2008) so he said he'd probably increase it to around 300. Then the big qestion was asked about when we should do a cycle, and he again said sooner than later. My DF said that we were thinking anbout November (well HE was thinking Nov) and he said that's fine. I just give up, I really expected him to say now, and I hated that smirky look DF gave me like I was a panic merchant and a drama queen and we still had time. We eneded up having a fight about it later as I said to him that he doesn't listen to me when I speak about things with gut feeling (ie my gut feeling is we should go now and not wait another few months etc). I told him that my opinion didn't matter blah blah blah. I'm over it!
Tash, he has been off work for a few months now after he came back from China. He went to China to set up another branch of the company that he used to work for that closed its doors in Oct last year (he worked there for 25 years), so after he came back from that he was going to have a wee break and then look for another job. He's been offered a job to run the company in Indonesia for 3 years (the same company that closed here) but he's decided agaist it as it was too long and we really wanted to do IVF in Australia. Sorry to make this long, but anyway he wants to get another job and hopefully buy a house (we've been looking for around 3 months) before starting a cycle. I think he wants to be in a better head space before going for the cycle again.
