Getting ready to start IVF 😬😬😬

β€’5 Replies

Had my 1st appt with the consultant last month and he was so lovely made me feel so at ease. Got injections delivered at the weekend and have my nurse appt Friday! After dreading this all to start I now just can't wait to get on with it! I will be starting on the 2nd day of my period so for once I'm willing it to start! Injections look complicated but I guess we will be shown at our nurse appt. Also just read a book called "Get a life" about a couple who went through three rounds of IVF. It's a brilliant read and helps us newtimers get our head round the whole thing!

Hey

You will get through thisπŸ‘it's not easy by any means. The bits you fear are actually better than you thought they would be. The injections are fine really.

Side effects not great but most women are OK till about a week in then you don't feel great but are nearly doneπŸ˜‰

Wishing you all the luck in the worldπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

Thank you! Not looking forward to side effects. I work with someone in my office 37 hours a week mainly us two and I haven't told her so hope I'm not too snappy lol xx
