Any single ladies doing IVF solo that would like to connect?

After freezing my eggs 7 years ago, having not met anyone I am now on this journey by myself. Would love to connect with other single ladies on this journey by themselves for additional support and encouragement…

Hi there I am single and am 18 weeks pregnant following double donor ivf in the summer. I always thought I would meet that right person to have a family with but after being mucked about by guys in my 30s it just didn’t happen and I realised as I hit the 40s I wanted to go solo rather than miss my chance. I left it too late for my own eggs (did try for a few years) but it’s fantastic that you have yours ready on ice! Feel free to connect and ask any questions. It can feel scary at times but overall very exciting and I’m really happy with the path I am now on xx

Thanks for connecting, I did reply earlier, but for some reason it is not showing up here. Congratulations on your baby, great to hear positive stories. I will DM you xxx

hi, I’m solo, happy to connect. There are a couple of Facebook groups with hundreds of ‘us’ if you were interested in joining!!

[Eggfreezer2015 in reply to Gerti2020]

Thank you and will DM you, I don’t want people to know what I’m doing so feel like joining a FB group exposes me. But really appreciate the suggestion and for you to reach out to connect xxx

Hey! I'm hoping to be a SMBC. Hoping to start my first cycle in January! There's a big community on FB and lots of good IG accounts to follow, but definitely be nice to have some support in here 😊

My sister is starting to look into going it solo, could you point me in the direction of the fb and IG groups for her please?

Thank you for connecting, will DM you. I am due to do my FET in January! Xxx

Hi me too! Got to 40’s and thought I can’t wait for a man, even if I find one now, trying for a family together would be so far off. If I want to do it, it’s just me and it’s now or never.

Still trying. Just had a MMC. Well having but will start again as soon as clinic allows. They want to do some tests once I have the all clear. Still have 5 frozen embryos, used two and these are double donor.

Ended up in a&e over the weekend because bleeding was so bad. Was advised to go by EPU nurse if bleeding reached a certain threshold and it did and the pain was bad!.

Had to call round to find someone to bring change of clothes though as they left me to bleed through mine! Good news is I am finally seeing a negative test. My body still seems to be doing it the right way without the need to medicine or surgery and that gives me hope!

Every aspect of this journey is tough when you do it solo. It’s also a learning curve, next time I get a positive result I will have an emergency hospital bag packed and ready by the door. Keys distributed to close friends. Not that I think I would need it again. In fact I’m hoping the very fact I’d have it ready would mean I didn’t need it. Life can be a bit like that I think!

Thank you for connecting, I am sorry to hear what you have experienced and fingers crossed you can start again soon with your frozen embryos. It is all a learning curve full of highs and lows, and I have found moments of it tough. I guess if you’re not going through it yourself it’s difficult to fully appreciate how it all feels. Will DM you xx

Hello hun, I'm a solo mum by choice, and found this community hugely helpful during my 2 year IVF journey. I still pop back now in case there's any information or tips I can share. Goes without saying I'm incredibly happy I chose to go solo (at 40). Good luck hun 😊

[Eggfreezer2015 in reply to IVFat40]

Thanks for connecting and if you have some tips for us all, please do share as this solo journey can sometimes feel like a lot despite being positive and keeping your eye on what is possible at the end of it… xxx

[IVFat40 in reply to Eggfreezer2015]

You know what hun it sounds like you've already done the best possible thing by freezing your eggs in good time, sending masses of good luck with the embryo transfers bit I'm sure you won't need it!
