I’m in Fife and had to wait about 6 months but I think I was put higher up the list because I’m older. Think it can depend on your age.x

I am 35 and worried my chances are getting slim of having a baby if having to wait long

You can phone and ask the hospital where you are on the list. They should be able to give you an idea. It’s a nightmare waiting isn’t it.x

Hello. Well, usually clinics take month or two to assign IVF dates. Depending on the number of traffic they have. I'm also undergoing my IVF this July at a repro center in Ukraine. They just confirmed my dates this month. Initially, they ran some tests for me. Secondly, they also have a healthy traffic of candidates. So, yes! It usually takes time. Stay calm and strong! Wish you all the best in your IVF journey. So, yeah! xx TC!
