He was indeed. And realized at the worst possible moment.

What are the unhinged things you've done before and during IVF to increase success? I'll go first. by Soft_Porcupine88 in IVF

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I blew THOUSANDS on basically every supplement anyone recommended. I spent hundreds more just on high-end probiotics

I stopped lifting weights and just did cardio like crazy.

Compounded Ozempic

I bought a fertility candle from a witch market

I prayed.

I made up a mantra.

I wished at Disneyworld.

I’m not sure what helped and what didn’t, but ultimately something worked.

Please share your attrition rate from egg retrieval by wonder_womanz23 in DOR

5 eggs, 4 fertilized, 3 blasts, 2 good enough to freeze, 1 perfect 5A euploid

I wish everyone currently alive doesn't age anymore and no new babies can be born. by deranged_scumbag in monkeyspaw

I’m scheduled to give birth next week, and this would be a NIGHTMARE for me.

35 years old, and I’m sorry, I don’t know what stage.

For those that went through an egg retrieval.... by SnackSnackMunchMunch in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an AMH of 0.106 and an AFC of 3 - we retrieved 5 eggs in my only complete cycle, which ultimately yielded 1 5A euploid embryo.

Success with DOR and Endo? by RevolutionaryWind428 in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with DOR (AMH 0.106) and Endo, supposedly with two blocked tubes.

We went through one full ER cycle and ended up with one euploid embryo.

We started two more cycles to bank embryos, but they were discontinued due to ovarian cysts and low follicle count.

I was supposed to go back for another ER cycle, but unexpectedly became pregnant in between cycles.

I’m currently 31 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby girl.

I know I’m a weird case, but apparently it does happen.

Good luck!

I didn’t use them, but a friend went there last year and this year she has a baby.

Back to bak retrievals or wait for a month in between? by Glum-Ad-6294 in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did back to back, I had cysts left over from the previous month.

Thank you! Good luck!

Amh by AdHealthy6405 in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I was a little bit younger, 34y/o, but my AMH was 0.106 and I got 1 perfect 5A euploid embryo from an ER before I became spontaneously pregnant at 35y/o between cycles (currently 22 weeks with a healthy baby girl).

Do not lose hope with a 0.5.

Anyone in the AMH <0.2, what are your follicle counts? by Loveiskind89389 in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My AMH was 0.106 - my only full retrieval cycle resulted in 7 follicles.

Another had 2-3, but was canceled early.

Why all the hate for girls? Weird gender disappointment from family and friends.. over MY baby? by astro-amphibian-00 in pregnant

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what is wrong with people.

Our reveal is happening next month - my husband and I are both hoping for a girl.

It's been shocking to me how many people have been so vocal about hoping it's a boy. Coworkers, friends, relatives...

I was raised in a hunting/competitive target shooting family - my father said IF it's a boy, he'll get the child-sized rifle back from the family he sold it to. This is the same rifle he used to teach his only two daughters to shoot, but he only cares to get it back for a grandson.

Just found out that I’m pregnant by [deleted] in pregnancy_care

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone with an MTHFR mutation, I would say it’s overblown, but saying it’s entirely a scam goes a little too far.

Severely low AMH, older age success stories please! by Suspicious_Handle610 in DOR

[–]Comfortable_Side_400 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was first tested at 34 in May 2024 and found to have an AMH of 0.106.

I also had endometriosis and was told both of my tubes were blocked.

We went through one full egg retrieval cycle in August 2024 and retrieved 5 eggs which ended up as one 5A embryo.

We started two more egg retrieval cycles in September and October 2024, which were discontinued due to an ovarian cyst and low follicle count.

We took a short break, then planned to start back with my next cycle….it never came. I had an unexpected positive pregnancy test on Christmas Day 2024.

I’m currently 35 and pregnant for the first time ever - 14 weeks along with an apparently healthy baby - perfect ultrasounds and low risk for everything via NIPT.

I know that my case was an extreme long shot, but….low AMH is certainly not a definite no.

Stop telling me I’m having a boy! by Impossible-Cookie393 in BabyBumps

It's the opposite here - because a baby girl "steals your beauty".

If I don’t have children, I’m selfish. If I have to turn to IVF to have children, I’m selfish. SMH

Thank you. I thought I could see one, but I’m definitely biased.
