Hey,
We just got put on the waiting list for IVF last week. I was wondering how long you waiting for the 'open evening' appointment? I feel i have an information void just now.
Thanks ๐

Hi there where are you based? I wasn't really put on a list but after my husband and I signed all off our forms etc it took 3 weeks for it to be approved and we have been given an appointment for September. We had the papers signed in June.
Hi! we were referred for IVF on 1st June, letter came on 5th July to tell me i was at the top of the list, we had our opening evening 12th July then our 1 hour appointment to go through everything and pick up meds is on 22nd August! all depends what area your in, my hospital waiting list was maximum 18 weeks, i was luck enough only to wait 5! hope this helps xxxx
Oh thats good news ๐ I was hoping that the open evening would be sooner than a month tho. Wow! 5 wks is brilliant. The current waiting list for Aberdeen is 4-6 months. However, we r being fast tracked due to my egg count demonising so rapidly. ๐๐ป did you get any handouts at the open evening? I was going to write lots of notes and go loaded with questions x
Yeah the opening evening was really beneficial to me and my partner, we both went in not having a clue then were experts by the time we left haha! alot of the girls had pens and paper noting everything down then you get a chance to ask as many questions as you want,
We didnt get handouts at the evening but 2 days later i got a massive pack posted out, full of my forms to sign etc and every bit of information i needed was in there, xxx
I was signed off last July and put forward but as paperwork went missing and I had to chase so I didn't get an appointment till Jan this year xx
Hi Blue eyes, I am in Aberdeen and I was put on the list in March and we had our information evening on Monday (18th July) and our initial appointment the next day . They are all lovely and the information evening is very informative! Does what it says on the tin!
There is a powerpoint that they show which you can access and read on their website before the meeting. I printed it off and tool it along with me in case I needed to take any notes. All the info you need is on the website
๐ฎ thats quick between the open evening and your initial app. Did you get the appointments by the usual letter? Oh thats good! Looking to forward to finding out more. Thanks so much for this ๐
