Amy, my B-day is also February 1. I will be 36. I had my TR November 2004 but haven't had any pregnancies not due to the TR but due to scar tissue on my tube that needs to be removed. Dr. Berger and his staff were great. It's never too late to have it done. Once the scar tissue is removed, I will try until I die. Hope this helps and happy upcoming birthday to us!

Amy,

You are the average age of the patients we normally see here. I don't believe that it is too late for you. Just keep the faith. Everything will work out. Wishing you the best.

Hi Amy, You're NOT too old!!

I had my TR on 4/8/05. I turned 35 in September, DH is 39. We are expecting our baby boy on Feb 3rd. At the time of surgery, Dr B gave us an 80% chance success rate. Boy was he right! We were pregnant our first month TTC.

Amy,

I'm 37 and I'm having the TR on 1/3/06. I feel that my chances are very good, if I didn't feel this way we certainly wound not have spent our money. There are many success stories for women over 35.

Good Luck with your decision!

Dear Amy,
Most of our patients are in their mid to late 30's so you are right in the average of the patients we normally see. We are hopeful for you!

Amy,

I turned 38 in October and my TR is scheduled on 1/3/06, I think you have plenty of time--I've seen lots of positives at 35 and older. Good luck to you!!

Amy,

I will be 38 in March and I am scheduled for TR this coming Friday. I think you will find that you are very average in age. If you look through the site you will find the area which discusses % of success based on age and type of ligation you had.

Happy Holidays!
Noelle

No, you didn't wait too long Amy. There are lots of women who are at and above your age. You sound just like me! I just turned 32 and told hubby if we don't have a baby by 34 not going to happen. Since then I have up'ed the age. LOL As soon as everyone is done doing their Christmas thing I am sure you will get lots of responses! Good luck hon! Bren

Hey guys,
I have been on and off the board for some time now...(close to 2 years). With our financial situation last year we decided to give up the idea of trying for our own baby together. (I have children, he has none) Anyway, I decided to stop torturing myself and stop with reading the board. I have not been on in about 8 or 9 months. Well, mys sister just had a baby and dh's cousin just had a baby...and of course the whole biological clock ticking quite loudly...spoke to dh about it and we have COMMITTED to having our tr this year with our tax money!!! Financial situation has also improved GREATLY, I am even a stay at home mom now.

My big fear is that I waited too long now. I always said that if we were to get tr, I would have it NO LATER than 34. Well, I am going to be 35 on Feb 1, and that is making me a little depressed...I don't want to spend a lot of money if there is only a small chance of success. Or if there is only a short time of real trying time. Any advice helpful...I am excited, anxious and hopeful all at the same time.

Thank you,
Amy
