Has anyone done IVF?

LiveandLetLive42 profile image

My husband and I have been trying for a few years to get pregnant. We finally saw a fertility doctor and they want to start IVF as soon as possible. I don't really know anyone who has been through it and was hoping to talk to someone about it. Thanks !

I had a cousin and his wife had the same problem, they took the IVF treatment, it went well and they ended up with a lovely little boy. One of my brothers, his wife was having the problem, they took the classes and were about to start and she got pregnant. Sad to say she lost it at 3 months. See if there are references of people you can talk to, hopefully that could put your mind at rest. Sending strength, hope, peace, love n Big hugs.......plus courage, also see if there are any books you can read, I read one, it was about a couple in London......more love.....

Thanks Sprinkle :)) That's really helpful. I just want to see how other people handled it and what outcome they had. We just started the process and it's very overwhelming. Lots of love <3

There are several related communities on here. Try healthunlocked.com/fertilit... as they seem a busy one.

I'm fine sista from over the pond, hope you are. I agree with you and keep thinking about my golden youth when I never got tired and had enough energy to keep going all day and half the night. Now I do one little thing and I'm knackered :(

I hobble to the shops with my stick and have to take my shopping trolley coz I can't lug it all back otherwise. Not fun at all is it? Still I guess it's better than pushing up the daisies :D xx

What about insurance? Luckily ours covers it. It’s $30,000! That’s ridiculous
