    You just have to take it one month at a time. One failed attempt won't be the end of the world and you shouldn't get too upset if you don't get pregnant on the first time. A first failed attempt can be devasting and depressing. You need to have a support group to help you remember to stay optimistic. Your younge age increases the probablity for you to conceive. I agree with Ann72 and think you mom will come around. She probably just needs time to let it set in.

    I am 31 and just found out I am pregnant after 5 IUI's. I recommend not telling a lot of people when you are doing the insemmination, because with great intentions they keep asking if you are pregnant and the more times you have to tell them you are not the harder it is. Good Luck -- and your mom will come around.

    The409kitten, please be cognizant that your mom is not "over the moon" about the idea because, like all mothers, she has your best interest at heart. At 29 yrs old I am sure she feels that you still have time to do it the conventional way. Be patient with her and invite her into the process you'll be surprised at how supportive she will become.

    I was worried about it too. I was 31 when I did mine, but I decided that the best way to go about it was to have the family "in on it". So, I gave them all my information and let them do the donor search too. They got really involved with the process of helping me pick the right donor. I finally said, "Okay, yall. Time for your top 3". The same donor was on almost everyone's list, so they all felt like they got to be part of the process. Now, they are all behind me 100% :)
