My initial reaction is this is bulls...Wait, what?! My initial reaction is this is bullshit, because 40 y.o. women are EXACTLY the women needing IVF for fuck's sake, and I'm sure most RE's offices are made up a decent percentage of women over 40. So either your area is bizarro, or this person is really misinformed. <br /><br />I'm with you. She's obviously not supportive if this is her attitude. Part of her job should be listening why it is you're seeking IF treatment at the age you are, and being understanding. And that should cover prior IF and babyloss AND the more mundane "we're just getting around to it." It shouldn't matter. I call bullshit. Find someone else. Geez, I know it's annoying but damn, that makes me angry. Is there a bulletin board or somewhere you could go to see if anyone recommends anyone in your area? Maybe Fertility Friend?Tashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376651134993450207noreply@blogger.com
