    Hello everyone! My name is Sam, I am 30 years old, and I have been married for three years. My husband is FTM transgender. We have been renovating our home, caring for our dog, four cats, and a fish tank. I'm a social worker at a therapeutic day school. We are foster parents (hopefully someday adoptive parents) to an amazing 7 year old girl. We are just starting our TTC journey! I'm waiting for some lab results today, and if it all checks out, we'll start unmedicated IUI next month. Eek!

    Hi, my name is Cathrine. I started trying to conceive with donor 4925 this past Feb and tried for 3 months to no avail. I'm about to start again (I have 3 vials in storage) and I've been charting everything for around 10 months now. I am totally running out of time....literally counting the months as I'm 45 now and 46 in October. I've been taking all the vitamins including Ubiqinol 600mg and DHEA 100 mg daily. I did see a specialist last year and had all the fertility tests run. My results weren't bad, actually encouraging but still low chance at my age. I will try for a few more months but after that, it probably doesn't make much sense to keep going. I would have given anything to have been aware that egg freezing had improved earlier but still I was on the edge because that was when I was around 40. I am single. Have alot of guilt from decisions I made on pregnancies at 19 and 21. I am hopefully as I can't imagine not being a mother especially knowing I gave up my chances years ago being selfish.......tough thing.

    Hi! I'm Amber, I'm 25 years old, and I am TTC! Purchased five vials of donor #9717, and I am doing my first at home insemination in a couple of weeks!! I am asexual, biromantic, and single by choice. I have always wanted kids, and hopefully my wish will come true very soon! I'm a daycare teacher, currently splitting my time between the toddlers class and the infants class, so I like to think I have a bit of a leg up over your typical first time mom, but I'm probably being overly confident, lol! I live in Arizona with my aunt and my youngest sister, along with an embarrassing number of cats and dogs. I would love to connect with some people who share my experience, since I often times have no idea what I'm doing!

    I’m Sam (33) married to Shannon(44). Step mom to Ellie (14) from shannon’s previous marriage.


    we originally wanted to do RIVF with shannon’s eggs and donor sperm, and me carry, but we’re told Shannon is too old.


    we have been TTC since august. After and HSG and polypectomy in September I started on letrozole in October. I do not have PCOS or Endo (that I know of), my doc just likes to use meds to increase odds. I didn’t respond to 2.5mg. Our November IUI was cancelled for that reason. Dec. Jan. Feb. IUI’s all failed on 5 mg letrozole with multiple follicles. We are currently mid cycle round 5 and still hopeful.


    we just purchased 3 more vials from donor 10A57. Baby dust to all of you ❤️
