Hi Guys,
iv not posted for awhile but have been reading other people posts. i think i'm just feeling down like whats the point. I'm worrying about stupid things and just being silly.
I had my first appointment with the nurse, weight, height and bloods were taken and hubby has been given another appointment for sperm testing.
no idea when my next appointment is or what will happen next, please help.
lots of love, hope your all well xx
Hey ah keep your chin up. I know exactly how you feel the waiting and not knowing when the next stage is or what the next stage is is the worst. I find it so hard too. Try and organise things to look forward to. I've started creating a list of 10 things I'm looking forward to, it can be as simple as a date night with the husband, or seeing a friend, or having a massage. As soon as one of those things gets ticked off the list organise something else to keep the list up to 10- it does help me, maybe it'll help you. Hope you feel better soon xxxx
Hello once we had all this done I had to have an ultrasound and internal scan at my hospital. I also had my tubes checked. My partner had to do another sample and then once we got all this info they transfered us to the fertility clinic xx
Hi don't be sad strong-girl, you are now on a journey. You took control of this and are starting to try and make this happen, you should be so proud of yourself to come this far and have the courage to get on the merry go round and have a go. So, have you had a scan yet to see how many follicles you have, tubes checked etc? If not that will probably be next, you might have had all your bloods done but if not you will need routine screening for HIV, chlamidia etc. Once all this is done then the next stage of starting your cycle will probably be discussed with your consultant. Good luck we are all here for you xxx
Hiya. It's a long process and it only gets more difficult and frustrating when you are referred to the fertility clinic. I went to see my nurse for bloods and bmi weight etc in December 16. In April I was referred to the clinic for a consult. Then may we had a group session and last Thursday we went to see another nurse for consent signing. We will start treatment in 2 weeks. I have worked out that it will take until the end of September until we can do a test to find out if positive or negative. This is without any delays or set backs. You just have to hang in there n be patient. It's not about rushing things with something like this x
Keep positive. I know the uncertainty can be desesperant but you have to be patient. This a long journey. Blood tests and all that are completely normal. They need to check everything before start with a treatment. Both of you will have more test if the doctor need it.
After that they maybe will want to check your tubes and other things. They can repeat tests for be sure. Keep your mind busy, don't over think. Go out with your hubby and do stuff together.
The infertility is not an easy game, but your goal worth it. Think that all of this is for a beautiful baby and when you have it, time will mean nothing. You have to be strong and brave.
I wish you both the best of lucks.

I am totally with you with regards to the waiting - it's torture! I like Bec-A's idea...I'm going to try it myself! Next they'll book you in for a scan, more bloods & possibly some other tests - you'll get a letter through the post giving you these appointments, ours were not long after that initial appointment xx
Hey girls
Thank you soo much for all your lovely replys I'm defo going to try the list. I have had my bloods and tube test and recently had my bloods taken at the ivf clinic, hubby has been sent for a second sperm test. We have also signed all the paper work and had ivf explained to us.
I'm just taking it as it comes but it defo plays on ur head and can b soo emotionally draining.
Sending lots of baby dust to all xxx hopefully this journey will end positively for us all
All over 💔
When will I learn?
It's all over.....again!!😩
It will all be worth it...
