Hi Yogamum
i am 40 (41 in jan) have 2 older kids 17 and 20, my partner is 38 and we are trying for our first child together. we have been trying for about 18 months (including 6 on clomid) and just had my first egg collection today!

am feeling pretty sore tonight but happy that we got a high number of eggs (19)

i have to phone tomorrow to find out if any have fertilised - then each day after that to get progress reports on their development - we are aiming for a friday transfer - all going well

i had pretty high eostrogen levels so they did the egg collection a little earlier than planned - and i am using pessaries not injections in an effort to avoid hyper stimulation.

i hope it all goes well for you
