  1. I went through 4 IVF cycles (3 different clinics, 2 states, and 4 pregnancy losses-one in the second trimester) before I had my twin boys when I was 34. Not everyone has that outcome, or is able and/or wants to go through that, but there are many options for building a family. I hope women don’t get discouraged; there is often hope.
