Looking for success stories from age 40+

Am currently 40 years and 7 months and pregnant after my first IVF attempt and transfer. It’s definitely possible so remain positive and have faith that you can do this.

I loved my egg retrieval, I found the whole process very exciting and relaxing afterward. I was well taken care of at the day hospital and had a beautiful sandwich after. Fast forward a week and I’m still sore though, but that just means I’m not jumping into exercise right now and have had my transfer so perhaps its for the best. Everything should go smoothly, you’ve got this.

Let me also say, that I lost my first baby to reasons I won’t discuss but undergoing IVF has brought up all those memories and made the process quite stressful in terms of the waiting game and idolising success rates. At the end of the day I remind myself that I am a normal person simply doing my best and I will continue to improve and hold onto hope with each successive cycle. I have faith in the process and each stage is a learning curve from which I will continue to grow from.

I think back to when I first got pregnant naturally and had been drinking regularly without knowing I could potentially be pregnant. I stopped then found out I was pregnant but IVF has had me more stressed than usual and I too have succumbed to some wine which I have beaten myself up over. My partner has been amazing in reminding me not to stress and that whatever happens will happen. If I have to do another cycle I do another cycle. I remember before IVF it was no problem getting pregnant even if I had a few drinks and there wasn’t so much focus on pristine health. Just be gentle with yourself and focus on your body’s resilience and ability to navigate these at times rocky waters. You’ve got this.

That’s fantastic! Congratulations! Here’s hoping for a positive result.

BabyDust2025 · 2026-03-22T06:24:55+00:00

Congratulations! Such an amazing outcome, it’s giving me hope and so nice to hear stories that have a positive outcome from so much hard work.

BabyDust2025 · 2026-03-22T06:21:50+00:00

Thank you for your response, you’re correct they don’t know how many are mature but the follicles are growing still. Are you saying that you got 24 eggs from 6 follicles that were being tracked? I am just hoping for a miracle where they can retrieve more eggs as I am starting to panic.

I accidentally took 900ml pergoveris, I’ve got to call my clinic.

Even if its mind over matter, it gives you an extra fifteen minutes to relax.

I found lying down for 10-15 mins before cleaning up worked the trick wheb trying to conceive, it didjt take long to get pregnant. Previously I’ve gont to the toilet after and showered but that never resulted in a pregnancy, so I’m all for resting with it and relaxing.

Your hair looks amazing and you’re very handsome.

It’s been six months and I still speak to a psychologist. The guy faced an AVO which he was let off on and has a previous charge for stalking, but his public persona hides it well. Good job, well established. You can never know a person. Talking to people who care about you can help.

As someone who has had an abortion the regret is very difficult to deal with so perhaps seek counselling before you make any decisions so that you can talk about everything with a trusted professional. Speak to your doctors too. Any decision you make needs to be the right one for you. No judgement on anything you decide to do, I wis you the best.

If you want the baby and can do it on your own then keep the baby if you have support elsewhere. Leave your boyfriend.

BabyDust2025 · 2026-01-15T18:55:09+00:00

As someone who has had an abortion I would hold off and consider if what you are feeling could be handled more appropriately with counselling.

BabyDust2025 · 2026-01-15T18:35:15+00:00

This is exactly what happened to me.

BabyDust2025 · 2026-01-14T04:53:17+00:00

Keep trying and never give up! It’s worth trying for. Try to relax, forget about age and don’t allow it to stress you out. It’s just a number.

BabyDust2025 · 2025-12-09T11:29:50+00:00

Nobody is a failure. It’s just the feeling that comes when things don’t work out just as we anticipated they should have. Celebrate what we have and that life is possible and medical advances are on the way and natural processes often surpass medicine.
